Shifts in coastal sediment oxygenation cause pronounced changes in microbial community composition and associated metabolism

Abstract Background A key characteristic of eutrophication in coastal seas is the expansion of hypoxic bottom waters, often referred to as ‘dead zones’. One proposed remediation strategy for coastal dead zones in the Baltic Sea is to mix the water column using pump stations, circulating oxygenated w...
