On the Estimation of Zooplankton-Mediated Active Fluxes in Oxygen Minimum Zone Regions
In the Peruvian upwelling system, the mesopelagic oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) is the main vertically structuring feature of the pelagic habitat. Several zooplankton and nekton species undertake diel vertical migrations (DVMs) into anoxic depths. It has been argued that these migrations contribute subs...
