A select group of marine organisms can enter the Oxygen Minimum Zones (OMZs) and even anoxic waters, while performing diel vertical migration (DVM). DVM of the euphausiid  Euphausia eximia  off northern Chile in the spring of 2015 was documented based on acoustic measurements using an echo sounder along with net samplings. Dissolved oxygen (DO) concentrations were obtained using a vertical profiler, and water samples were collected to obtain in situ nitrite (NO 2  − ) concentrations as well as pH T , total alkalinity (AT), and therefore carbon dioxide partial pressure ( p CO 2 ) was estimated. Krill were found to migrate up to the surface (0–50 m) during the night and returned to ca. 200–300 m depth during the day, spending between 11 and 14 h at these layers. At the surface, DO and NO 2  −  concentrations were 208 and 0.14 μM respectively, while pH T  was 8.04 and 405 μatm  p CO 2 . In contrast, at the deeper layers (200–300 m), DO and NO 2  −  were < 3 and 6.3 μM respectively, with pH T  7.53 and 1490 μatm  p CO 2 . The pH T  and high  p CO 2  values at depths represent the conditions predicted for open ocean waters in a worst-case global warming scenario by 2150. The acoustic scatter suggested that > 60% of the krill swarms enter the OMZ and anoxic waters during the daytime. These frequent migrations suggest that krill can tolerate such extreme conditions associated with anoxic and high- p CO 2  waters. The inferences drawn from the observation of these migrations might have strong implications for the current oceanic carbon pump models, highlighting the need for understanding the molecular and physiological adaptations allowing these migrations.
