Oxygen as a control on seafloor biological communities and their roles in sedimentary carbon cycling

TL;DR: The hypothesis that oxygen controls the relative dominance of metazoan macrofauna and foraminifera in a threshold manner is proposed, with the threshold lying between 5 and 7 mmol L21 (0.11 to 0.16 ml L21).
Short-term fate of phytodetritus in sediments across the Arabian Sea Oxygen Minimum Zone

TL;DR: The short-term fate of phytodetritus was investi- gated across the Pakistan margin of the Arabian Sea at depths ranging from 140 to 1850 m, encompassing the oxygen minimum zone (100-1100 m) by adding 44 mmol 13 C-labeled algal material per m 2 to surface sediments in re- trieved cores as mentioned in this paper.
Porewater nutrient concentrations and benthic nutrient fluxes across the Pakistan margin OMZ
Clare Woulds,Matthew C. Schwartz,Tim Brand,Gregory L. Cowie,Gareth T. W. Law,Stephen R. Mowbray +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, benthic fluxes of phosphate, silicate, ammonia, nitrate and nitrite were measured at five sites spanning the Pakistan margin oxygen minimum zone (OMZ), in order to characterise the biogeochemical processes occurring, and to assess whether oxygen concentration and a seasonal pulse of organic matter are controlling factors.

Sedimentary denitrification rates across the Arabian Sea oxygen minimum zone
TL;DR: Sedimentary denitrification was measured at sites across the Pakistan Margin oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) during cruises before and after the 2003 Southwest (SW) Monsoon as discussed by the authors.
