Which consequence results from the impact of ocean eddies on coastal upwelling?

💡 Explanation

When eddies intersect coastal upwelling zones, the eddy pumping mechanism enhances vertical mixing because eddies are circulating masses of water, this pumping increases the supply of nutrients from deeper waters to the surface. Therefore enhanced nutrient supply results, rather than increased stratification, reduced oxygen, or decreased erosion which rely on alternative processes
