Cross-Shore Flow and Implications for Carbon Export in the California Current Ecosystem: A Lagrangian Analysis

P. Chabert et al.

Summary: Eastern Boundary Current Upwelling Systems are crucial in the global carbon cycle due to elevated primary production and carbon export. Variability in cross-shore flows in the California current ecosystem is influenced by mesoscale and large-scale climate forcing, impacting the ratio of in-situ new production to carbon export and the balance of production and sinking in the region.

Global changes in oceanic mesoscale currents over the satellite altimetry record

Josue Martinez-Moreno et al.

Summary: Studies have shown that mesoscale eddy variability has increased in eddy-rich regions but decreased in the tropical ocean over the past few decades. These changes have significant implications for the exchange of heat and carbon between the ocean and atmosphere.

A Dynamically Downscaled Ensemble of Future Projections for the California Current System

Mercedes Pozo Buil et al.

Summary: The study downscales three Earth System Models (ESMs) to produce climate projections for the California Current System (CCS) under high emission scenario, finding an intensification of upwelling winds, overall surface warming, nitrate enrichment, and dissolved oxygen decrease. While all models agree on future changes in offshore waters, differences arise in coastal regions, resulting in varied responses of biogeochemical variables. Downscaled models reflect trends in ESMs, but differ more for biogeochemical than physical variables.

Next-generation regional ocean projections for living marine resource management in a changing climate

Elizabeth J. Drenkard et al.

Summary: Efforts to manage living marine resources under climate change require accurate predictions of future ocean conditions, which can be achieved through downscaled global climate models with higher spatial resolution. Statistical downscaling can complement dynamical approaches in building ensembles of downscaled projections spanning the range of ocean futures. The suggested protocol emphasizes LMR-driven design to ensure delivery of decision-relevant information, aiming to robustly support LMR science and management under climate change.
