Decomposing the oxygen signal in the ocean interior: beyond decomposing organic matter

Abstract:

In the subsurface ocean, O2 depleted because of organic matter remineralization is generally estimated based on apparent oxygen utilization (AOU). However, AOU is an imperfect measure of oxygen utilization because of O2 air-sea disequilibrium at the site of deepwater formation. Recent methodological and instrumental advances have paved the way to further deconvolve the processes driving the O2 signature. Using numerical model simulations of the global ocean, we show that the measurements of t...
