Summary: | 3 pages.-- Printed version published in issue Aug-Sep 2004.-- Issue title: "The Canary Islands Coastal Transition Zone - Upwelling, Eddies and Filaments". Full-text version available Open Access at: http://www.iim.csic.es/~barton/html/pdfs.html The marine science and technology (MAST) III program of the European Union funded the Canary Islands Azores Gibraltar Observations (CANIGO) project from 1996 to 1999 with the overarching objective of a better understanding of the physics, biogeochemistry and paleoceanography of the eastern subtropical North Atlantic. Parrilla et al., 2002 G. Parrilla, S. Neuer, P.Y. Le Traon and E. Fernandez-Suarez, Topical studies in oceanography: Canary Islands Azores Gibraltar Observations (CANIGO) Volume 1: Studies in the northern Canary Islands basin, Deep-Sea Research Part II-Topical Studies In Oceanography 49 (2002) (17), pp. 3409–3413.

The present compilation of papers complements those volumes by reporting observational work carried out in the last months of the project, too late for inclusion there. The component of CANIGO reported here, which focussed on the transition zone of the NW African coastal upwelling downstream of the Canary Islands, was an interdisciplinary effort involving researchers from ten institutes and universities in Spain, UK and France. This work was supported by the European Union (Project CANIGO, MAS3.CT96-0060). Peer reviewed |
