The article reports on the discovery that global climate change may be causing some parts of the ocean to be deprived of oxygen. The 2002 appearance of oceanic dead zones completely unrelated to chemical runoff is mentioned, noting that hypoxia has emerged as a cause of dead zones. Hypoxia's cause is described as resulting from changes in ocean circulation and upwelling, which Andrew Bakun of the University of Miami attributes to global warming.
