In the ocean, minerals, detritus, bits of shells, and dead organisms constantly drift down to the ocean floor. An upwelling of cold water carries them back up to the surface where they provide plankton and zooplankton, with nourishment. The phytoplankton and zooplankton, in turn, nourishment other kind of life. This is why areas of upwelling often have abundant sea life. Info: Discover Works Silver Burdett Ginn Science
