- "We couldn't believe our eyes. It was so overwhelming and depressing. It appeared that everything that couldn't swim or scuttle away had died... We seem to have crossed a tipping point. Low-oxygen zones off the Northwest coast appear to be the new normal." - quote by marine ecologist Jane Lubchenco; quote appeared in this Los Angeles Times article.
