Eastward shift and maintenance of Arabian Sea oxygen minimum zone: Understanding the paradox

SS Acharya, MK Panigrahi - Deep Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic …, 2016 - Elsevier
Abstract The dominance of Oxygen Minimum Zone in the eastern part of the Arabian Sea
(ASOMZ) instead of the more bio-productive and likely more oxygen consuming western part
is the first part of the paradox. The sources of oxygen to the ASOMZ were evaluated through
the distributions of different water masses using the extended optimum multiparameter
(eOMP) analysis, whereas the sinks of oxygen were evaluated through the organic matter
remineralization, using the apparent oxygen utilization (AOU). The contributions of major …
