  • The document describes a specific oceanographic mechanism on the Patagonian shelf where deep ocean currents force nutrient-rich cold water to the surface. This process, unlike wind-driven upwelling, remains active year-round, sustaining a vast food chain including phytoplankton, hake, and squid, and contributing to the ocean's role as a carbon sink. The influence of this system extends northward, fertilizing waters as far as Brazil.
