Nitrogen cycling activities during decreased stratification in the coastal oxygen minimum zone off Namibia

Nitrogen cycling activities during decreased stratification in the coastal oxygen minimum zone off Namibia

Productive oxygen minimum zones are regions dominated by heterotrophic denitrification fueled by sinking organic matter. Microbial redox-sensitive transformations therein result in the loss and overall geochemical deficit in inorganic fixed nitrogen in the water column, thereby impacting global clim...
