Abstract The 2010 Deepwater Horizon (DWH) oil spill resulted in more than 3 million barrels of crude oil being delivered into the Gulf of Mexico with approximately 160,000...

Abstract Oyster reefs in the Gulf of Mexico were likely subjected to multiple stressors as a result of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill – those directly from the spill and those...

Abstract Abundance of live organisms (per 0.25 m2 quadrat) found in oyster reefs sampled in late spring (June), summer (June-September), and fall (September-November) 2017. Four...

Abstract Shell heights of up to 20 live oysters per size class (spat, seed, market) found in oyster reefs sampled in late spring (June), summer (June-September), and fall...

Abstract Physical data for oyster reef sites sampled in late spring (June), summer (June-September), and fall (September-November) 2017. Four embayments were sampled from...

Abstract Diatoms are an important phytoplankton group in this region as they can dominate both the standing stock of phytoplankton and the rate of primary production at times....

Abstract As oil was deposited differentially within Chandeleur Island salt marshes, it was important to investigate the microbiology of oil-impacted areas as marsh vegetation is...

Abstract Leaf productivity was measured by tagging shoots within each tub containing Spartina alterniflora at the beginning of the growing season in each of the two sampling...

Abstract Diver surveys for a non-indigenous damselfish, Neopomacentrus cyanomos, were performed in September 2017 on a natural gas platform offshore of Alabama and forty-two...

Abstract Catch and individual measurements from all organisms captured on bottom longline surveys in Coastal Alabama, Mississippi, and the Chandeleur Islands in 2017. Bottom...

Abstract Fishes and macroinvertebrates were collected using a 12.8m semi-balloon otter trawl with 4 cm mesh in Spring and Fall of 2017 in the coastal waters of Alabama and...

Abstract Fishes and macroinvertebrates were collected using a 12.8m semi-balloon otter trawl with 4 cm mesh from January 5 to November 1, 2017 in the coastal waters of Alabama...

Abstract Catch and individual measurements from all organisms captured on bottom longline surveys in Coastal Alabama, Mississippi, and the Chandeleur Islands in 2016. Bottom...

Abstract Mesocosms were established with a variety of marsh vegetation types to examine the impact to oil exposure and plant type on denitrification and nitrogen fixation....

Abstract Sediments were collected for a mesocosm project to examine the overall response of microbial diversity to oil exposure, plant type, and also to characterize bacterial...

Abstract Fishes and macroinvertebrates were collected using a 12.8m semi-balloon otter trawl with 4 cm mesh in Spring and Fall of 2016 in the coastal waters of Alabama and...

Abstract Fishes and macroinvertebrates were collected using a 12.8m semi-balloon otter trawl with 4 cm mesh in Spring and Fall of 2016 in the coastal waters of Alabama and...

Abstract Selected genes involved in nitrogen cycling were enumerated from sediment collected on the marsh platform as well as from nearby subtidal unvegetated sediments in the...

Abstract Sediment characteristics were measured during a project to investigate sediment denitrification and nitrogen cycling processes. Sediments were filtered and stored on...

Abstract Water column nutrients were measured during a project to investigate sediment denitrification and nitrogen cycling processes. Water samples were filtered through GF/F...
