During the warm summer months, when there is little mixing in the water column, the bottom water can stagnate and become hypoxic, or low in oxygen. If the hypoxia becomes severe enough, you have a dead zone. The size of the Gulf of Mexico dead zone varies from year to year. In 2012, the dead zone covered less area than usual, which may have been due to drought conditions in the Midwestâlow rainfall means less runoff from land. This year the dead zone is slightly larger than average.
