Benthic microbial communities associated with hypoxia on the Black Sea shelf break (NW Crimea)
The effect of varying oxygen conditions on benthic microbial communities was investigated at the North Western Crimean shelf break (Black Sea), at water depths between 105-207 m.  Sampling was performed with a TV-MUC on April-May 2010 on board of the RV Maria S. Merian (Cruise MSM 15-a) along gradient of oxygen bottom water concentrations between oxic (150 µmol L-1, station 464), variable hypoxic (3-60 µmol L-1 O2, stations 487 and 393) and anoxic, sulfidic conditions (station 448).
