New Nature Article Highlights Increasing PNW Coastal Hypoxia
A paper by NANOOS PI Jack Barth that highlights "widespread and increasing near-bottom hypoxia" along the PNW coast was recently published in Nature Scientific Reports. Maps of near-bottom oxygen since 1950 show a consistent trend toward lower oxygen levels over time. Widespread and increasing near-bottom hypoxia is consistent with increased upwelling-favorable wind forcing under climate change. The paper acknowledges NANOOS-IOOS support for some of the observations. It is a great example of how data and information that informs tribal and state coastal managers can also be sustained to reveal changes in the ecosystem that influence adaptation strategies.
