Abstract The Deepwater Horizon oil spill constituted an ecosystem-level injury in the
northern Gulf of Mexico. Much oil spread at 1100–1300 m depth, contaminating and …

Abstract The Deepwater Horizon oil spill was the largest in US history, unprecedented for
the depth and volume of oil released, the amount of dispersants applied, and the …

Dispersants are globally and routinely applied as an emergency response to oil spills in
marine ecosystems with the goal of chemically enhancing the dissolution of oil into water …

The large marine snow formation event observed in oil-contaminated surface waters of the
Gulf of Mexico (GoM) after the Deepwater Horizon accident possibly played a key role in the …

The Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the northern Gulf of Mexico represents the largest marine
accidental oil spill in history. It is distinguished from past spills in that it occurred at the …

In 2010, the Deepwater Horizon accident released 4.6–6.0× 1011 grams or 4.1 to 4.6 million
barrels of fossil petroleum derived carbon (petrocarbon) as oil into the Gulf of Mexico …

The objective of this study was to investigate the impacts of the Deepwater Horizon (DWH)
oil discharge at the seafloor as recorded in bottom sediments of the DeSoto Canyon region …

Significant amounts of oil accumulated at the sea surface and in a subsurface plume during
the Deepwater Horizon (DwH) spill in the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) in 2010. A substantial …

The Deepwater Horizon (DWH) spill released 4.9 million barrels of oil into the Gulf of Mexico
(GoM) over 87 days. Sediment and water sampling efforts were concentrated SW of the …
