Vertical segregation among pathways mediating nitrogen loss (N<sub>2</sub> and N<sub>2</sub>O production) across the oxygen gradient in a coastal upwelling ecosystem
The upwelling system off central Chile (36.5° S) is seasonally subjected to oxygen (O<sub>2</sub>)-deficient waters, with a strong vertical gradient in O<sub>2</sub> (from oxic to anoxic conditions) that spans a few metres (30–50 m interval) over the shelf. This condition...
