Description: |
Globally, hypoxic areas in coastal waters are increasing in number and spatial extent. In this study, the sediment-water fluxes of dissolved inorganic carbon, O2, nutrients, and N2 (denitrification) were measured on the Louisiana continental shelf from 2005 to 2007. The sediment-water fluxes reported from this study add substantial information on the spatial and temporal patterns in carbon, O2, and nutrient cycling available for the Louisiana shelf and, thus, improve the understanding of this system.
