    Description / Table of Contents: Summary A theory of K. Hidaka [1954] on stationary coastal upwelling in a homogeneous ocean is extended to the case of a continuously stratified sea with constant Brunt-Väisälä-frequency. Stream function and density distribution are computed in a section normal to the coast for different wind fields. It is shown that the type of circulation depends essentially on the form of the wind field, wind speed influencing circulation intensity only. The depth of upwelling is inversely proportional to the square root of Brunt-Väisälä-frequency, tending towards infinity in the homogeneous case. For the same circulation, the density distribution depends strongly on diffusion and, for constant diffusion, on wind speed. Density distributions of different circulation types are very similar. Hence, from an observed density distribution, nothing can be said about the depth of upwelling and very little about the circulation.
    Abstract: Résumé On se propose ici l'extension d'une théorie de «coastal upwelling» stationnaire de K. Hidaka [1954] au cas d'un océan stratifié de façon continue, la fréquence de Väisälä étant constante. La fonction de courant et la distribution de la densité sont élaborées pour divers champs de vent, dans une section normale à la côte. Le résultat montre que le type de circulation dépend essentiellement de la distribution du vent, tandis que la vitesse du vent n'a d'influence que sur son intensité. La profondeur d'«upwelling» est inversement proportionnelle à la fréquence de Väisälä, et tendant vers l'infini dans le cas homogène. Pour une même circulation, la distribution de la densité dépend fortement de la diffusion et, pour une diffusion constante, de la vitesse du vent. Les distributions de la densité appartenant à des types différents de circulation ne se distinguent guère les unes des autres. On en déduit que d'une distribution de la densité observée, on ne peut rien dire sur la profondeur d'«upwelling» et très peu seulement sur la circulation.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Eine Theorie von K. Hidaka [1954] des stationären küstennahen Auftriebs im homogenen Meer wird für den Fall des stetig geschichteten Meeres mit konstanter Väisälä-Frequenz erweitert. Für verschiedene Windfelder werden die Stromfunktion und die Dichteverteilung in einem küstensenkrechten Schnitt berechnet. Es ergibt sich, daß die Art der Zirkulation wesentlich von der Form des Windfeldes abhängt, während die Windstärke nur die Zirkulationsintensität beeinflußt. Die auftriebstiefe ist dabei der Wurzel aus der Väisälä-Frequenz umgekehrt proportional; im homogenen Fall wächst sie über alle Grenzen. Die Dichteverteilung ist bei gleicher Zirkulation stark von der Diffusion und bei konstanter Diffusion von der Windstärke abhängig. Zu verschiedenen Zirkulationstypen gehörende Dichteverteilungen unterscheiden sich nur wenig, voneinander. Daraus folgt, daß man aus einer beobachteten Dichteverteilung nichts über die Auftriebstiefe und sehr wenig über die Zirkulation aussagen kann.

    Description: The expedition "Auftrieb '72" was conducted in the NW African Upwelling Region off the Banc d' Arguin and included two geological profiles off Cap Blanc and off Villa Cisneros. R.V. "Meteor" and R.V. "Planet", the research plane "Canberra" and the tourist vessel M.S. "Regina Maris" participated in the expedition. Several components added up to a coordinated programme of different disciplines: Current meter moorings, large-scale oceanography and intensive studies of frontal zones were the task of R.V. "Planet". Medium-scale oceanography, chemistry and various disciplines of marine biology were performed with R.V. "Meteor", while the airplane and M.S. "Regina Maris" supplied background oceanographic information for the whole programme. The work done with R.V. "Meteor" is reported here. lt has been organised in three sections: Cruise section I. Nutrient dynamics in upwelling water bodies, in continuation of the work done during the "Roßbreiten-Expedition 1970". Cruise section II. Circulation in an upwelling system, including direct measurements of the vertical velocity; mixing processes in an upwelling system. Cruise section III. Sediment and benthos in areas of strong and weak upwelling. The approach to the study of these processes varied according to the problem. During cruise section I a number of drift experiments similar to the experiment conducted during the "Roßbreiten-Expedition 1970" was performed, consisting of a regular station programme at a freely drifting buoy which served for marking a patch of upwelling water. Cruise section II consisted of repeated sections in the vicinity of the vertical current meters and the current meter moorings. Cruise section III concentrated on two profiles perpendicular to the coast off Cap Blanc and Villa Cisneros.

    Description: Temperature data are presented which were obtained by means of a towed thermistor cable during the expedition "Auftrieb '72" in the immediate vicinity of the continental slope within the NW African upwelling region. While most of the data have been sampled on the offshore side of the upwelling front, the front is crossed on a few occasions, and some data cover the area of the upwelling coastal jet. They reveal a very deep homogeneous surface ]ayer within the coastal jet, indicative for increased turbulent mixing. These conclusions from the temperature sections are confirmed by the temperature and salinity data from CTD casts made in the same area at the same time. In spite of the complicated hydrography of the area and the large number of water masses involved, the existence of a zone of increased turbulent mixing within the jet is indicated in the data.

    Description: The sea surface temperature distribution off the Banc d'Arguin (south of Cap Blanc) is discussed, based on three groups of radiometer records obtained during February of 1972. The general distribution reflects the Zone of intense upwelling closely following the shelf edge, the surface front which separates this zone from the offshore water, and the water mass formed on the Banc d'Arguin. It shows outflow from the bank at the surface, occurring at the southern end (around Cap Mirik), and surface inflow in the northern half. The data display a large amount of small scale variation (in the range from 2-5 km to larger wave lengths) which cannot be analysed due to the large spacing of parallel flight tracks. Short-time variations also contribute to the data uncertainty. The main results of the anaiysis are: 1. There occur large changes in the intensity and position of the fronts and in the width of the upwelling zone in response to changes in the external forces, mainly the wind. The water mass on the Banc d' Arguin is constantly moving back and forth, exerting pressure on the upwelling system and distorting the upwelling zone. 2. Within the upwelling region intense mixing occurs, especially within the zone of intensified upwelling along the shelf edge but eventually also across thermal fronts.
