Upwelling1841, from up (adv.) + present participle of well (v.). As a noun from 1847. A verb upwell is attested from 1885.

UpwellingThe rising of water (usually cold) toward the surface from the deeper regions of a body of water.

Upwellingprocess by which currents bring cold, nutrient-rich water to the ocean surface. Read more in the NG Education Encyclopedia

6 |
UpwellingAn ascending motion of subsurface water by which water from deeper layers is brought into the surface layer and is removed from the area of upwelling by divergent horizontal flow. See also coastal upw [..]

UpwellingThe rise to the surface of cold, deep ocean waters.
|
8 |
UpwellingThe raising of benthic nutrients to the surface waters. This occurs in regions where the flow of water brings currents of differing temperatures together, and increases productivity of the ecosystem.
|
9 |
Upwellingthe upward flow of cold, nutrient-rich water toward the ocean surface as currents or seasonal winds draw warmer water away from a coast. Phytoplankton that feed in upwellings often support huge fish populations.

Upwellingthe rising of cold deep water to the surface of the ocean; the associated lowering of the sea surface temperature cools the atmosphere and modifies the local climate. The upwelled water is also rich i [..]

Upwellingbrings cold, nutrient-rich water from the depths up to the surface. Earth's rotation and strong seasonal winds push surface water away from some western coasts, so water rises on the western edges of continents to replace it. Marine life thrives in these nutrient-rich waters. Coastal upwelling

UpwellingThe process by which, dense, cold, deep, and nutrient-rich water is brought to the surface of the ocean. Upwelling often results in highly productive ecosystems. For more information click here.

17 |
UpwellingA process in which deep, cold water rises toward the surface of the ocean.
|
18 |
UpwellingThe process by which deep water is brought to the surface (often cold and nutrient-laden). Upwelling can be caused by the wind, divergence of equatorial currents, or coastal winds pushing water away from the coast. (Also see Coastal Upwelling)
|
19 |
Upwellingwind-driven movement of the ocean, causing cooler denser water to rise to the surface and replace warmer waters. The cool waters are often rich in nutrients and stimulate primary production, which is why upwelling areas are often hotspots for marine life and targeted by commercial fisheries.
|
20 |
UpwellingThe vertical motion of water in the ocean by which subsurface water of lower temperature and greater density moves toward the surface of the ocean. Upwelling occurs most commonly among the western coastlines of continents, but may occur anywhere in the ocean. Upwelling results when winds blowing nearly parallel to a continental coastline transport [..]

UpwellingMovement of nutrient-rich bottom water to the ocean's surface. This can occur far from shore but usually occurs along certain steep coastal areas, where the surface layer of ocean water is pushed away from shore and replaced by cold, nutrient-rich bottom water.

UpwellingIn ocean dynamics, the upward motion of sub-surface water toward the surface of the ocean. This is often a source of cold, nutrient-rich water. Strong upwelling occurs along the equator where easterly winds are present. Upwelling also can occur along coastlines, and is important to fisheries and birds in California and Peru.
