Coupling and Decoupling of High Biomass Phytoplankton Production and Hypoxia in a Highly Dynamic Coastal System: The Changjiang (Yangtze River) Estuary

The global increase in coastal hypoxia over the past decades has resulted from a considerable rise in anthropogenically-derived nutrient loading. The spatial relationship between surface phytoplankton production and subsurface hypoxic zones often can be explained by considering the oceanographic con...
