Estimating Hypoxic Volume in the Chesapeake Bay Using Two Continuously Sampled Oxygen Profiles

Abstract: Low levels of dissolved oxygen (DO) occur in many embayments throughout the world and have numerous detrimental effects on biota. Although measurement of in situ DO is straightforward with modern instrumentation, quantifying the volume of water in a given embayment that is hypoxic (hypoxic volume (HV)) is a more difficult task; however, this information is critical for determining whether management efforts to increase DO are having an overall impact. This paper uses output from a three-dimensional numerical m… Show more

“…In contrast, the Changjiang River estuary and the adjacent sea are affected by monsoon, and the short‐time variability of wind occurs more frequently. Bever et al () used two continuously sampled oxygen profiles to estimate hypoxic volume for the Chesapeake Bay. These daily‐averaged profiles were considered to be more accurate in providing the estimations than the bimonthly cruise data because of the high‐frequency changes in oxygen concentration under the variable wind direction and magnitude.…”

“…With continuously increasing nutrient loads, coastal hypoxia is most likely to worsen in the foreseeable future. East China Sea (e.g., D. Li et al, ; H. Wang, Dai, et al; Wei et al, ; J. Zhang et al, ), North Gulf of Mexico (e.g., Feng et al, ; Hetland & DiMarco, ; Rabalais, Turner, Sen Gupta, Boesch, et al, ; Rabalais, Turner, Sen Gupta, Platon, et al, ; W. Zhang et al, ), and Chesapeake Bay (e.g., Bever et al, , ; M. Li et al, ; Scully, , ; Shen et al, ) are among the typical systems that are strongly influenced by massive nutrient loads introduced by riverine inputs.…”

“…As throughout the remainder of the year, with vertical profiles collected at about 1-2 m vertical resolution. These data have been used by numerous groups to estimate the extent of hypoxia in the Chesapeake Bay (Bever et al 2013(Bever et al , 2018Zhou et al 2014;Hagy et al 2004;Murphy et al 2011).…”

“…The Bay also experiences diel-cycling hypoxia in its shallow-water tributaries [5,6]. The volume of the persistent hypoxia in the Chesapeake Bay is tracked annually [7], however, the volume of water exhibiting diel-cycling hypoxia is not monitored.…”
