Loss of fixed nitrogen causes net oxygen gain in a warmer future ocean

Loss of fixed nitrogen causes net oxygen gain in a warmer future ocean

Ocean anoxic events threaten marine ecosystems, and they are predicted to increase as the climate warms. Using model simulations, Oschlies and colleagues show that in spite of rising temperatures, after transitory deoxygenation, microbial denitrification could lead to oxygen increases that exceed pr...
