Marine ecosystems world-wide are threatened by oxygen deficiency, with potential serious
consequences for ecosystem functioning and the goods and services they provide. While …

Seafloor ecosystems play pivotal roles in biogeochemical cycling, but hypoxia (O 2< 2 mg l−
1) is changing the way they contribute to ecosystem function on a global scale. A major …

Coastal ecosystems are important because of the vital ecosystem functions and services
they provide, but many are threatened by eutrophication and hypoxia. This results in loss of …

Disturbance-mediated species loss has prompted research considering how ecosystem
functions are changed when biota is impaired. However, there is still limited empirical …

Rapid changes in biodiversity are occurring globally, as a consequence of anthropogenic
disturbance. This has raised concerns, since biodiversity is known to significantly contribute …

Our study challenges the functional approach for its usefulness in assessing the
consequences of hypoxia disturbance events on macrofaunal communities in the south …

Although much work has been done to predict the effects of hypoxia (dissolved oxygen< 2
mg l− 1) at regional scales, individual estuaries consist of a patchwork of micro …

A 38‐year record of bottom‐water dissolved oxygen concentrations in coastal marine
ecosystems around Denmark (1965–2003) and a longer, partially reconstructed record of …

During 1983 to 1990 the benthic macrofauna was studied at eight stations along a depth
gradient from 5 to 53 m in the SE Kattegat on the Swedish west coast. The area is almost …

Seasonal hypoxia refers to the oxygen depletion that occurs in summer in the bottom water
of stratified systems, and is increasingly observed in coastal areas worldwide. The process …
