We investigated the impact of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill on microbial communities in
wetland sediment and seawater samples collected from sites along the Gulf shore. Based on …

One of the major environmental concerns of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of
Mexico was the ecological impact of the oil that reached shorelines of the Gulf Coast. Here …

The Deepwater Horizon (DWH) blowout resulted in oil transport, including polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) to the Gulf of Mexico shoreline. The microbial communities of …

Marine oil spills can impact both coastal and offshore marine environments, but little
information is available on how the microbial response to oil and dispersants might differ …

The Deepwater Horizon oil spill led to the severe contamination of coastal environments in
the Gulf of Mexico. A previous study detailed coastal saltmarsh erosion and recovery in a …

Although petroleum hydrocarbons discharged from the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) blowout
were shown to have a pronounced impact on indigenous microbial communities in the Gulf …

Abstract The Deepwater Horizon (DWH) blowout resulted in the deposition to the seafloor of
up to 4.9% of 200 million gallons of oil released into the Gulf of Mexico. The petroleum …

Abstract The Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill in the spring of 2010 resulted in an input
of∼ 4.1 million barrels of oil to the Gulf of Mexico;> 22% of this oil is unaccounted for, with …

The release of 700 million liters of oil into the Gulf of Mexico over a few months in 2010
produced dramatic changes in the microbial ecology of the water and sediment. Here, we …

To study hydrocarbon biodegradation in marsh sediments impacted by Macondo oil from the
Deepwater Horizon well blowout, we collected sediment cores 18–36 months after the …
