Abstract
The article presents the results of comprehensive studies of the hydrological and chemical structure of the Middle and Northern Caspian Sea carried out aboard R/V Issledovatel Kaspiya in September 2022. It is shown, despite the continuing decrease in sea level, that there is no aeration of deep layers and a hydrogen sulfide layer persists with a tendency towards an increasing hydrogen sulfide concentration in the bottom layer. There is an enlargement in the oxygen minimum zone. The changes of the Caspian Sea ecosystem have led to weakening of nutrient transfer from the photic layer into the bottom layers and, as a consequence, to a decrease in the silicon concentration in the bottom layer. The results will make it possible to evaluate trends of ongoing changes.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
