This is illustrated using both field observations and numerical simulations from Chesapeake Bay. The field observations demonstrate how wind-driven circulation interacts with estuarine bathymetry to control when and where vertical mixing of dissolved oxygen occurs. These data highlight that the supply of oxygen to deep regions susceptible to hypoxia cannot be thought of as a simple 1-D process in the vertical, but rather a complex 3-D processes that is heterogeneous in both time and space. Oxygen is not supplied to sub-pycnocline waters directly by vertical mixing, but rather by horizontal advection of water mixed somewhere else. To quantify the role that physical processes play in controlling inter-annual variations in hypoxia, a numerical circulation model with a very simple representation of dissolved oxygen dynamics is used to simulate hypoxia in Chesapeake Bay for the 30-year period 1984-2013. The model assumes that the biological utilization of dissolved oxygen is constant in both time and space in an attempt to isolate the role that physical processes play in controlling hypoxia. Despite the simplicity of the model it demonstrates skill in simulating the observed inter-annual variability of hypoxic volume, capturing 50% of the observed variability in hypoxic volume (< 2 mg/L) for the month of July and 58% of the observed variability for the month of August, over the 30-year period. </font></div><div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">About the Speaker: Dr. Malcolm Scully is a physical oceanographer and an associate scientist with tenure in Woods Hole's Applied Ocean Physics and Engineering Group. His research interests include: estuarine dynamics; boundary layer and stratified turbulence; Langmuir circulation; low-dissolved oxygen (hypoxia) in estuaries; and fine sediment transport. He has authored and co-authored numerous peer-reviewed journal articles, book chapters, and more. Malcom earned a BA in Environmental Science from the University of Virginia in 1993, his MS in Marine Science from the College of William and Mary, School of Marine Science in 2001, and his PhD also from William and Mary in 2005.</font></div><div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="trebuchet ms, sans-serif">Subscribe to the OneNOAA Science Seminar weekly email: Send an email to <a href="mailto:OneNOAAscienceseminars-request@list.woc.noaa.gov" target="_blank">OneNOAAscienceseminars-request<wbr>@list.woc.noaa.gov</a> with the word `subscribe' in the subject or body.
