Microbial community structure and ecology of Marine Group A bacteria in the oxygen minimum zone of the Northeast subarctic Pacific Ocean
Oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) are intrinsic water column features that arise when the respiratory oxygen (O2) demand during microbial remineralization of organic matter exceeds O2 supply rates in poorly ventilated regions of the ocean. Microbial processes play a key role in mediating biogeochemical cy...
