Oxygen extrema: a new discovery!
Low resolution bottle data have often shown these extrema, but Seabird’s new continuously profiling sensor has defined them as never before. We propose that there exist 2 minima formed via biological processes on arctic shelves; the upper one from the Chukchi/ESS, and the lower from the Barents/Kara seas.
