Such regions are world wide.
Have a look this one (p. 277):http://jeq.scijournals.org/cgi/reprint/30/2/275.pdf
This author (R. J. Diaz) use both hypoxia and anoxia. You may also find dysoxia while seeking for this subject. All these terms design an oxygen saturation deficiency.
For all interested in the geochemical aspect of these deadly events, don't miss Hilde Passier's homepage. Her thesis concerning sapropels is a pure delight.

For Cretaceous OAEs there are many PDF papers on the net. I choose one because this paper is the corner stone of one of my current papers and the senior author (Mark Leckie) was generous enough to provide me further crucial infos :
