Description
Summary:Seasonal mean total cumulative upwelling in the Northern Benguela (15-29°S;8-16.8°E) shelf region during austral summer, autumn, winter, and spring. ... : Daily-averaged NCEP-DOE Reanalysis 2 wind vectors were used to compute daily values of cumulative Ekman Transport (m3 s-1) per 100m of coastline (Lamont et al. 2018. JMS 188: 3-16). Monthly values were then computed by summing the daily values per month. Seasonal means were computed by averaging data over a three-month period for each season, defined as austral summer (December, January, February), autumn (March, April, May), winter (June, July, August), and spring (September, October, November). ...
