Systems of low oxygen are growing in the global ocean, and dramatically impact the cycling of important elements. Manganese, a key nutrient element, has dramatic chemistry in seawater which is tightly linked to the cycles of many other key nutrient elements like iron, nitrogen, cobalt, zinc and sulfur to name a few. Here, we examine what happens to manganese chemistry as an oceanic system transitions from oxygenated to deoxygenated - from the surface to the bottom of this particular location.
