Oxygen utilization and downward carbon flux in an oxygen-depleted eddy in the eastern tropical North Atlantic
The occurrence of mesoscale eddies that develop suboxic environments at shallow depth (about 40–100 m) has recently been reported for the eastern tropical North Atlantic (ETNA). Their hydrographic structure suggests that the water mass inside the eddy is well isolated from ambient waters supporting...
