Title: Coastal Impacts of Synoptic Winds:
Case 1) Eastern Boundary Upwelling Ecosystem
Case 2) New England Coastal Sea Level Extremes
Abstract: The theme of this presentation is the impact of synoptic-scale winds on the coastal ocean, focusing on two distinct areas and research questions. The first axis examines the impact of synoptic wind variability on the climatological state of the South Senegalese Eastern Boundary Upwelling Sector, with particular emphasis on the dynamics and planktonic ecosystem. The second axis investigates another type of synoptic wind events: the extratropical storms in New England, and particularly the weather patterns associated with extreme sea levels and their impacts on the coastal ocean.
