Oxygen sensitivity of anammox and coupled N-cycle processes in oxygen minimum zones.

Oxygen sensitivity of anammox and coupled N-cycle processes in oxygen minimum zones.

Nutrient measurements indicate that 30-50% of the total nitrogen (N) loss in the ocean occurs in oxygen minimum zones (OMZs). This pelagic N-removal takes place within only ~0.1% of the ocean volume, hence moderate variations in the extent of OMZs due to global warming may have a large impact on the...
