The Bump, rising from the Blake Plateau, lies in the path of the Gulf Stream and deflects the Gulf Stream offshore away from the coast of the eastern United States . This deflection amplifies downstream eddies and gyres and enhances upwelling of nutrient rich waters onto the continental shelf . These nutrient inputs support an ecosystem of plankton, fish, and other sea life . Large populations of wreckfish can be found in the cave systems in this area . </P>
