Oxygen observation activities within the FP7 EU-project HYPOX: a step towards hypoxia monitoring a rapidly changing world
Hypoxic conditions in aquatic systems and the occurrence of ‘dead zones’ increase worldwide due to man-made eutrophication and global warming. Nevertheless, for most environments existing monitoring activities are either inadequate or missing completely. Up to date hypoxia observation for a rapidly...
