Origin and fate of methane in the Eastern Tropical North Pacific oxygen minimum zone

Oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) contain the largest pools of oceanic methane but its origin and fate are poorly understood. High-resolution (<15 m) water column profiles revealed a 300 m thick layer of elevated methane (20–105 nM) in the anoxic core of the largest OMZ, the Eastern Tropical North Paci...
