Some disadvantages of upwelling include the potential for bringing nutrient-rich but oxygen-poor waters to the surface, leading to hypoxic conditions. It can also cause changes in water temperature that may impact marine ecosystems, including affecting the distribution of marine species. Additionally, upwelling events can sometimes bring harmful algal blooms to the surface, which can be detrimental to marine life and human health.
