Effects of natural and human-induced hypoxia on coastal benthos
Levin, L.A.; Ekau, W.; Gooday, A.J.; Jorissen, F.; Middelburg, J.J.; Naqvi, S.W.A.; Neira, C.; Rabalais, N.N.; Zhang, J. (European Geosciences Union, 2009)Coastal hypoxia (defined here as <1.42 ml L sup(-1); 62.5 mew M; 2 mg L sup(-1), approx. 30% oxygen saturation) develops seasonally in many estuaries, fjords, and along open coasts as a result of natural upwelling or from ... -
Historical records of coastal eutrophication-induced hypoxia
Gooday, A.J.; Jorissen, F.; Levin, L.A.; Middelburg, J.J.; Naqvi, S.W.A.; Rabalais, N.N.; Scranton, M.; Zhang, J. (European Geosciences Union, 2009)Under certain conditions, sediment cores from coastal settings subject to hypoxia can yield records of environmental changes over time scales ranging from decades to millennia, sometimes with a resolution of as little as ... -
Natural and human-induced hypoxia and consequences for coastal areas: Synthesis and future development
Zhang, J.; Gilbert, D.; Gooday, A.J.; Levin, L.; Naqvi, S.W.A.; Middelburg, J.J.; Scranton, M.; Ekau, W.; Pena, A.; Dewitte, B.; Oguz, T.; Monteiro, M.S.; Urban, E.; Rabalais, N.N.; Ittekkot, V.; Kemp, W.M.; Ulloa, O.; Elmgren, R.; Escobar-Briones, E.; Van der Plas, A.K. (European Geosciences Union, 2010)Hypoxia has become a world-wide phenomenon in the global coastal ocean and causes a deterioration of the structure and function of ecosystems. Based on the collective contributions of members of SCOR Working Group 128, the ... -
Threshold effects in semi-enclosed marine systems
Koppel, J. van de; Tett, P.; Naqvi, S.W.A.; Oguz, T.; Perillo, G.M.E.; Rabalais, N.N.; d'Alcalae, M.R.; Su, J.; Zhang, J. (Island Press, 2009)The natural history of the twentieth century documents dramatic changes in many ecological systems, mostly due to the influence of the expansion of human civilization. Semi-enclosed marine systems (SEMSs) are no exception ...
