The goal of the book is to examine scientific advances since 2000
that may have increased understanding and options in three general
areas related to hypoxia: Characterization the Cause(s) of Hypoxia.
The physical, biological and chemical processes that affect the
development, persistence and extent of hypoxia in the northern Gulf
of Mexico. Characterization of Nutrient Fate, Transport and
Sources. Nutrient loadings, fate, transport and sources in the
Mississippi River that impact Gulf Hypoxia. Scientific Basis for
Goals and Management Options. The scientific basis for, and
recommended revisions to, the goals proposed in the Action Plan;
and the scientific basis for the efficacy of recommended management
actions to reduce nutrient flux from point and nonpoint sources. In
addressing the state of the science, the book focuses on the
strengths and limitations of the science in managing the Gulf
hypoxia problem, including available data, models and model results
and uncertainty. It includes work from the following authors: C.
