The ocean is unambiguously losing oxygen in response to global warming. Yet, observations and climate models have so far shown large departures and uncertainties in the regional patterns of this ocean de-oxygenation, with implications for the future of ecosystems and the production of nitrous oxide, a potent greenhouse gas. This talk will present recent advances that shed light on the fate of ocean oxygenation and reconcile prior controversies.
