Microbial communities and their biogeochemical role in the water column of the oxygen minimum zone in the eastern South Pacific

In recent years, our group has been studying the microbial communities of the water column associated with the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) off northern Chile and Peru, trying to understand who the main players are in the OMZ biogeochemical cycles and which metabolic strategies they are using. For that...
