Review of &amp;amp;#8220;The temporal variability of oxygen inventory in the NE Black Sea slope water&amp;amp;#8221; by Ostrovskii et al.
Year: 2018

Ostrovskii et al use a new, high-resolution, multi-variable dataset from a moored profiler in the slope waters of the NE Black Sea to study oxygen dynamics in short time scales (hours to weeks).They find that the hypoxic boundary fluctuated mostly with two time scales: the inertial period (∼17 hs) and the passage of current meanders and eddies (∼5 days).The work is novel mostly due to being the first study in the region showing results from such a highly resolved dataset and the topic is quite i
