Oxygen created from the production of green hydrogen could help stem a growing dead zone at the bottom of the Gulf of St. Lawrence, according to new research by Canadian scientists.
Marine dead zones are occurring around the world, including in the Baltic Sea and off the coast of China.
The Gulf of St. Lawrence dead zone is the result of nutrients that consume oxygen and a shift in ocean currents carrying colder rich waters away from the Gulf.
Dead zones threaten marine species, which need oxygen to live, eliminating habitat for less mobile species like crab and mussels and shrinking habitat for others, making
