ZF_5_07 — Upwelling Systems: Coastal Productivity and Fisheries Foundations

Upwelling — the wind-driven or current-driven ascent of cold, nutrient-rich deep water to the sunlit surface layer — is the foundation of the ocean's most productive ecosystems and the world's most valuable fisheries. Th

ZF_1_20 — Ocean Stratification

Ocean stratification — the formation of stable density layers in the water column due to gradients in temperature, salinity, and pressure — is one of the most fundamental physical characteristics of the global ocean and

ZF_1_01 — Physical Oceanography: Thermohaline Circulation, Currents, and ENSO

Physical oceanography studies the motion, properties, and dynamics of the global ocean — a system containing 97% of Earth's water, covering 71% of the surface, and storing over 90% of the excess heat from anthropogenic c

O_5_07 — Anoxic Events and Ocean Dead Zones: Deoxygenation Through Time

Oceanic Anoxic Events (OAEs) were episodes in Earth's history when large portions of the world's oceans became severely depleted of dissolved oxygen (anoxic) or enriched in toxic hydrogen sulfide (euxinic), causing wides
