Implications of nitrate and nitrite isotopic measurements for the mechanisms of nitrogen cycling in the Peru oxygen deficient zone
Oceanic oxygen deficient zones (ODZs) are important regions for oceanic primary
productivity, nitrous oxide (N 2 O) production, and the marine nitrogen (N) budget. These …

Biogeochemical role of subsurface coherent eddies in the ocean: Tracer cannonballs, hypoxic storms, and microbial stewpots?
Subsurface eddies are known features of ocean circulation, but the sparsity of observations
prevents an assessment of their importance for biogeochemistry. Here we use a global …
