Seasonally severe and persistent hypoxia, or low dissolved oxygen concentration, occurs on
the inner‐to mid‐Louisiana continental shelf to the west of the Mississippi River and …

Oxygen-deficient conditions occur from April to October on the inner to middle continental
shelf of the northern Gulf of Mexico and may cover up to 9500 km2 during mid-summer off …

A partial reduction in the quantity of nutrients reaching the Gulf of Mexico, particularly nitrate–
nitrogen, can be accomplished through several general approaches and specific techniques …

In October 1989 the distribution of benthic foraminifera stained by Bengal Rose in the
uppermost seven centimeters of the sediment has been determined in 14 sample stations in …

Seasonal O2 budgets were developed for the mesohaline region of Chesapeake Bay (USA),
which experiences bottom water O2 depletion in summer. Rates of O2 production and …

Three areas were studied to assess the effects of riverine input on the marine benthic
ecosystem: the Adriatic Sea (with the Po river), the Orinoco-Paria shelf (with the Orinoco and …

Nutrient over‐enrichment in many areas around the world is having pervasive ecological
effects on coastal ecosystems. These effects include reduced dissolved oxygen in aquatic …

The vertical distribution of benthic foraminifera in a sediment core in front of the Po delta has
been studied in detail. According to our age model, based on 210Pb and 137Cs analyses of …

The distribution of reactive iron in sediments of the northwestern shelf, the shelf edge and
the abyssal part of the Black Sea has been studied. In the euxinic Black Sea, iron sulfides …
