Marine hypoxia/anoxia as a source of CH4 and N2O

TL;DR: In this article, the available information on methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) from major marine, mostly coastal, oxygen (O2)-deficient zones formed both naturally and as a result of human activities (mainly eutrophication).
Journal ArticleDOI

Anaerobic ammonium oxidation in the oxygen-deficient waters off northern Chile

TL;DR: In this paper, the pathways of N2 production in the oxygen-deficient water column of the eastern tropical South Pacific off Iquique, Chile, at 20uS, through short anoxic incubations with 15N-labeled nitrogen compounds were investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anammox and denitrification in the oxygen minimum zone of the eastern South Pacific

TL;DR: It is shown that denitrification must be seen as a sequence of individually regulated reactions, each of which may start and stop depending on the electron donor input, while anammox is much less variable.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nitrogen fixation in denitrified marine waters.

TL;DR: The results demonstrate the occurrence of nitrogen fixation in nutrient-rich coastal upwelling systems and, importantly, within the underlying OMZ and suggest that nitrogen fixation is a widespread process that can sporadically provide a supplementary source of fixed nitrogen in these regions.
