Figure 1. Major upwelling regions off South Africa, with the area of coastal upwelling (hatched pattern) and the extension of the upwelling filaments in the mixing zone between the Benguela Coastal Current (BCC) and the Benguela Oceanic Current (BOC; dark gray pattern), during Southern Hemisphere winter (August; from Wefer et al., 1996; modified after Lutjeharms and Stockton, 1987). AC = Angola Current; SAC = South Atlantic Current; AGC = Agulhas Current. Bold numbers = locations of Geosciences Bremen gravity cores.
