The oxygen in the oceans is decreasing, and this topic little commented on scientific studies. reduction occurs mainly places that receive a greater availability of nutrients, either naturally or anthropically, which increases excessive proliferation phytoplankton develop hypoxic zones. Hypoxic zones are increasing with effects land use fertilizers, global warming, climate change among other reasons. In review, following were analyzed: 1) hypoxia zone increase associated natural anthropogenic such as: eutrophication, warming change, 2) correlation found pelagic food web loss functional group emphasis zooplankton community as response to adaptations zone. Hypoxia have been causing changes scale, effect becomes even more evident if steps not taken reduce effluents environmental imbalances.
