气候变化导致的氧气最小区域的扩大及其可能的演变和对生态系统和大气的影响仍然存在争议，主要是因为全球气候模型无法充分再现控制氧气最小区域的过程。在这项研究中，我们使用涡旋分辨生物物理模型研究了控制阿拉伯海北部OMZ氧气收支的因素，即氧源和氧汇之间的平衡。
The expansion of OMZs (oxygen minimum zones) due to climate change and their possible evolution and impacts on the ecosystems and the atmosphere are still debated, mostly because of the unability of global climate models to adequatly reproduce the processes governing OMZs. In this study, we examine the factors controlling the oxygen budget, i.e. the equilibrium between oxygen sources and sinks in the northern Arabian Sea OMZ using an eddy-resolving biophysical model.
