Humboldt-Tipping II
Title
Humboldt-Tipping II: Alternative futures of the Northern Humboldt Current upwelling system under Shared Socioeconomic Pathways
General information
The Humboldt current with its upwelling system at the Pacific coast of South America is a highly productive ecosystem in which not only around 9 million tons of fish and other seafood are caught every year but is also a hotspot of marine biodiversity. The system is subject to significant changes due to climatic, ecosystem and anthropogenic fluctuations that occur at different time scales (seasonal, annual, decadal and centennial) in addition to the increasingly visible effects of climate change.
