   Stratification and Basin Morphology
   In deep-sea environments and some stratified lakes (meromictic systems), anoxia develops due to physical stratification. A dense, cold bottom layer, often rich in refractory organic matter, prevents vertical mixing with oxygenated surface waters. In oceanic settings, particularly in Oxygen Minimum Zones (OMZ)/), the stratification is often maintained by sharp density gradients driven by salinity anomalies or [te…
