WASHINGTON, Nov. 11 (UPI) -- Dead zones in the world's oceans are expected to warm and expand by the end of the century due to climate change, says a new study.
The dead zones, areas of water that are oxygen depleted and unable to sustain aquatic life, are going to grow. The study, published by the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center on Nov. 10 in Global Change Biology, said 94 percent of the ocean's dead zones will see a jump of two degrees Celsius.
