  abstract = {{T}he resistance of an east border upwelling system was investigated using relative index of marine pelagic biomass estimates under a changing environment spanning 20-years in the strongly exploited southern {C}anary {C}urrent {L}arge marine {E}cosystem (s{CCLME}). {W}e divided the s{CCLME} in two parts (north and south of {C}ap {B}lanc), based on oceanographic regimes. {W}e delineated two size-based groups ("plankton" and "pelagic fish") corresponding to lower and higher trophic levels, respectively. {O}ver the 20-year period, all spatial remote sensing environmental variables increased significantly, except in the area south of {C}ap {B}lanc where sea surface {C}hlorophyll-a concentrations declined and the upwelling favorable wind was stable. {R}elative index of marine pelagic abundance was higher in the south area compared to the north area of {C}ap {B}lanc. {N}o significant latitudinal shift to the mass center was detected, regardless of trophic level. {R}elative pelagic abundance did not change, suggesting s{CCLME} pelagic organisms were able to adapt to changing environmental conditions. {D}espite strong annual variability and the presence of major stressors (overfishing, climate change), the marine pelagic ressources, mainly fish and plankton remained relatively stable over the two decades, advancing our understanding on the resistance of this east border upwelling system},
