Abstract:The interpretation of decline in dissolved oxygen (DO) in the oxygenated bottom water of the Ulleung Basin (UB), southwest of the East/Japan Sea has been challenging because of the integrated influence of various DO-consuming processes. Therefore, the stable oxygen isotopic fractionation of DO was investigated to enhance our understanding of the distinct DO consumption observed in the bottom layers of the center of the UB. We explored the relationship between DO and its oxygen isotope composition (δ18ODO) usin… Show more
