Hypoxia linked to stratification, but… Is tidal stage (spring/neap) an adequate predictor of stratification?

Bottom DO vs. the Neap Tide Prediction

July August Sept.

Conclusions NNB shows a certain synchronicity to stratification / hypoxic events for the stations surveyed. Bottom water hypoxia is linked with stratification. There is a high probability that the water will be stratified during and just following a neap tide. However, hypoxia (and stratification) also occur at other stages of the monthly tidal cycle.
