Ocean Deoxygenation: A Primer [PDF]
Earth’s ocean is losing oxygen; since the mid-20th century, 1%–2% of the global ocean oxygen inventory has been lost, and over 700 coastal sites have reported new or worsening low-oxygen conditions. This “ocean deoxygenation” is increasing and of great concern because of the potential magnitude of adverse changes to both global and local marine ...

Eutrophication-Driven Deoxygenation in the Coastal Ocean [PDF]
Human activities, especially increased nutrient loads that set in motion a cascading chain of events related to eutrophication, accelerate development of hypoxia (lower oxygen concentration) in many areas of the world's coastal ocean. Climate changes and

A Selected Review of Impacts of Ocean Deoxygenation on Fish and Fisheries
Oxygen is crucial for the survival of marine species. Yet, the ocean has experienced a loss of approximately 2% of its oxygen inventory since the last century, resulting in adverse impacts on marine life and ecosystems.

Southern Ocean evidence for recurring West Antarctic Ice Sheet destabilization during Marine Isotope Stage 11 [PDF]
Millennial-scale deoxygenation of Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) in the Atlantic Southern Ocean during past interglacials was linked to West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) melt-driven suppression of dense water formation along the Antarctic margin.

Microbial Ecology of Oxygen Minimum Zones Amidst Ocean Deoxygenation. [PDF]
Oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) have substantial effects on the global ecology and biogeochemical processes of marine microbes. However, the diversity and activity of OMZ microbes and their trophic interactions are only starting to be documented, especially in regard to the potential roles of viruses and protists.

Ocean deoxygenation dampens resistance of diatoms to ocean acidification in darkness
Respiratory activity in the oceans is declining due to the expansion of hypoxic zones and progressive deoxygenation, posing threats to marine organisms along with impacts of concurrent ocean acidification. Therefore, understanding the combined impacts of

Ocean deoxygenation linked to ancient mesopelagic fish decline
Mesopelagic fish are integral to ocean food webs and play an important role in carbon transport through their vertical migration behavior. Ocean deoxygenation caused by anthropogenic warming is expected to pose severe threats to mesopelagic fauna by ...
