Building on results of an initial 2017 workshop, a second advisory panel workshop concerning the effects of low dissolved oxygen in water (hypoxia) was held
NCCOS scientists are forecasting this summer’s Gulf of Mexico hypoxic zone or “dead zone”—an area of low to no oxygen that can kill fish and
Every summer, the largest hypoxic zone in the U.S. forms in the northern Gulf of Mexico, resulting in widespread ecosystem and economic impacts. Determining, and
Targeted Efforts to Support Nutrient Management NCCOS supports observations and monitoring for variables that are important to modeling hypoxia in time and space. These models
NCCOS and NOAA’s Northern Gulf Institute (NGI) convened the First Fisheries Monitoring Workgroup (FMW) at the Mississippi State University’s Science & Technology Center located on
A new book highlights NCCOS sponsored hypoxia modeling. It contains original research on numerical simulations of the patterns, controls, and effects of dissolved oxygen dynamics.
NCCOS-Supported Research Provides Foundation for Management of the ‘Dead Zone’ in the Northern Gulf of America Since its inception in 1990, the National Centers for
An Interagency Approach to Harmful Algal Bloom and Hypoxia Research and Control Harmful algal blooms (HABs) and hypoxic events (severe oxygen depletion) are some of
Scientists have determined this year’s Gulf of Mexico “dead zone,” an area of low oxygen that can kill fish and marine life, is 8,776 square
A team of scientists led by Louisiana State University (LSU) developed a model to understand the impacts of hypoxia (low oxygen) on Atlantic croaker in
