  abstract = {{S}outh {A}tlantic {C}entral {W}aters in the eastern subtropical {A}tlantic {O}cean are characterized by an oxygen minimum zone which borders the shelf where coastal upwelling occurs. {H}ence waters depleted in oxygen are advected over the shelf where they undergo changes related to both physical and biological processes. {O}ccurrence of hypoxia associated to demersal fish has been reported in the past. {S}ince 2012, four oceanographic cruises have been carried out in {S}enegalese waters during the upwelling season. {T}wo months of bottom oxygen variability has also been recorded between {F}ebruary and {A}pril 2015 at {M}elax buoy's location (14°20'{N}-17°13'{W}). {T}hese observations are completed with regional physical-biogeochemical modelling. {I}n this study, we present the variability of bottom oxygen observed across the shelf and provide the context for hypoxic or even anoxic events to occur, which most likely impact demersal and pelagic habitats.},
