Anoxic marine zones (AMZs) constitute pelagic systems distinguished from the oxygen minimum zones (OMZs) by the complete absence of detectable oxygen and the accumulation of nitrite in mid-waters. At the top of the oxygen-depleted layer and below the oxycline, nutrients are abundant; light intensity is very much reduced (缺氧海洋区域（AMZs）是浮游生态系统中一类独特的区域，其与缺氧带（OMZs）的区别在于完全缺乏可检测的氧气以及中层水体中硝酸盐的积累。在氧气耗尽层顶部及氧cline层下方，营养物质丰富，而光照强度显著降低（
