súrefnislausn
Súrefnislausn refers to a state of oxygen deprivation in a solution. This can occur in various contexts, most notably in biological systems like water bodies or within living organisms. In aquatic environments, súrefnislausn, often termed anoxia or hypoxia, can be caused by factors such as eutrophication leading to excessive algal blooms that consume oxygen as they decompose, or by stagnant water conditions with limited surface aeration. This lack of dissolved oxygen can have severe consequences for aquatic life, leading to fish kills and disruption of the ecosystem.
Within biological tissues, súrefnislausn signifies a deficiency of oxygen reaching cells. This condition, known as hypoxia
