Restoration Ecology

Restoration Ecology

Restoration Ecology is the study of recuperating degraded, damaged or destroyed ecosystems through active human intervention.

The expansion of oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) affects the processes by which carbon is captured and sequestered on the seafloor. Researchers describe the metagenome of an abundant but uncultivated microbe from a fjord on the coast of British Columbia, Canada that is silently helping to shape the ecology of OMZs worldwide.
