In coastal water bodies, including river mouths and seas, low-oxygen sites have increased more than tenfold since 1950. Scientists expect o
34、xygen to continue dropping even outside these zones as Earth warms. “Oxygen is fundamental to life in the Oceans, ” said Denise Breitburg, a marine ecologist with the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center. “The decline in ocean oxygen ranks among the most serious effects of human activities on t
35、he Earths environment. Actually, its a great loss to all the support services that rely on recreation and tourism, including hotels and restaurants and taxi drivers and everything else. The reverberations(严重影响) of unhealthy ecosystems in the ocean can be extensive. ”In areas traditionally called “de
36、ad zones”, like those in Chesapeake Bay and the Gulf of Mexico, oxygen plummets(大幅下跌) to so low levels that many animals die. As fish avoid these zones, their habitats become smaller and theyre easier to be attacked or caught. But the problem goes far beyond “dead zones”. Even smaller oxygen decline
37、 can prevent growth in animals, hinder reproduction and lead to disease or even death. It also can cause the release of dangerous chemicals such as nitrous oxide, a greenhouse gas up to 300 times more powerful than carbon dioxide. While some animals can boom in “dead zones”, overall biodiversity fal
38、ls. Climate change is the key criminal in the open ocean. Warming surface waters make it harder for oxygen to reach the inside of the ocean.
