oxygen concentration

[Mako]

Completely random, I know, but can anyone think of factors that affect oxygen concentration in water? I'm trying to do my biology homework and finding it hard to search for on the internet and thought someone in here might know. So far I have depth, concentration of aerobic aquatic life and temperature. Sorry if this is really cheeky!

I only know in relation to fish keeping!!



I know that the tempature of the water and the amount of surface movement make a difference. Warmer water contains less oxygen and more surface movement allows more oxygen to go into the water.

I'm sure someone else will be able to help more.

Thank you!
