This link is for an article in the May 5, 2011 NY Times. Researchers
report that water levels on the West Coast have been decreasing over the
past 30 years. They predict a new cycle is starting in which water
levels on the West Coast will be rising, as they have been through most
of the world. As part of this new cycle there will be less cold water
forced up to the surface along West Coast shorelines. The article does
not address any change in the nutrients brought up by the cold water for
ocean life.
