Based on daily ocean surface temperature values for 1982–2017, near-surface wind for 1988–2017. and sea level anomalies for 1993–2017, obtained from satellite data, the seasonal variability of the hydrodynamic characteristics of the upper water layer in the vicinity of the Benguela upwelling is investigated. It is shown that the thermal upwelling index averaged over the entire area with lower temperature values does not give a correct idea on the seasonal course of the water lifting rate in the upwelling zone due to the significant horizontal advection of waters of upwelling origin. The seasonal variations of the vertical velocity of wind origin in the Benguela upwelling zone are characterized by the presence of two extremes from October to March, which is manifested in the predominance of the semiannual harmonic. At the same time, the thermal upwelling index in the zone of distribution of upwelling waters is subject to seasonal variability with an annual period.
