The Evidence for Dark Oxygen Production at the Abyssal Seafloor of the CCZ, and What Does the Evidence Mean?
Prof. Andrew K. Sweetman (Scottish Association for Marine Science)
In this talk, Professor Andrew K. Sweetman will share details of the discovery of dark oxygen production at the abyssal seafloor of the Clarion–Clipperton zone (CCZ), a process that challenges traditional assumptions about oxygen cycling in deep-sea environments. He will also provide several items of evidence for it and discuss the results in the context of what they mean for seabed mining activities.
NOTE: This webinar will not be recorded.
