The Optical Signature of a Bottom Boundary Layer Ventilation Event in the Northern Gulf of Mexico's Hypoxic Zone by Jason K. Jolliff, Ewa Jarosz, Sherwin Ladner, Travis Smith, Stephanie Anderson, James Dykes

“…Abstract Oceanographic observations in the northern Gulf of Mexico captured an unusual combination of atmospheric forcing and shelf frontal dynamics that brought about the surface ventilation of sediment‐laden bottom waters. Colorimetric analysis of in situ optical data indicates a specific turquoise‐white color signature for turbid and low‐oxygen bottom waters that match a coincident shelf‐wide feature detected in Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer satellite true color images. …”
