Other factors e.g. lower grazing after 1999

Take home messages
• Stronger and earlier upwelling since 1999
• Colder temperature and higher chlorophyll in Farallon
• Colder temperature propagates into Central and South Bay
• Higher chlorophyll in the Central and South Bay too (due to upwelling and other factors e.g. grazing, turbidity…)
We cannot forget that the ocean is influenced by climate and that the Bay is influenced by the ocean!
