Deep-Sea Benthic Footprint of the Deepwater Horizon Blowout

Montagna, Paul A.; Baguley, Jeffrey G.; Cooksey, Cynthia; Hartwell, Ian; Hyde, Larry J.; Hyland, Jeffrey L.; Kalke, Richard D.; Kracker, Laura M.; Reuscher, Michael; Rhodes, Adelaide C. E. (PLOS, 2013)

The Deepwater Horizon (DWH) accident in the northern Gulf of Mexico occurred on April 20, 2010 at a water depth of 1525 meters, and a deep-sea plume was detected within one month. Oil contacted and persisted in parts of ...

Assessment of Longitudinal Gradients in Nematode Communities in the Deep Northern Gulf of Mexico and Concordance with Benthic Taxa

Sharma, Jyotsna; Baguley, Jeffrey G.; Montagna, Paul A.; Rowe, Gilbert T. (Hindawi, 2012)

Meiobenthic nematode assemblages were examined at 16 stations along two transects on the eastern and western boundaries of the deep northern Gulf of Mexico (dNGOM) at depths of 212–3000 m. The highest abundance (297 ...

The expanded footprint of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico deep-sea benthos.

Reuscher, Michael G.; Baguley, Jeffrey G.; Montagna, Paul A. (2020-06)

The 2010 Deepwater Horizon blowout off the coast of Louisiana caused the largest marine oil spill on record. Samples were collected 2–3 months after the Macondo well was capped to assess damage to macrofauna and meiofauna ...

M.; Yool, Andrew; Bluhm, Bodil A.; Iken, Katrin; Narayanaswamy, Bhavani E. (PLOS, 2010)

A comprehensive seafloor biomass and abundance database has been constructed from 24 oceanographic institutions worldwide within the Census of Marine Life (CoML) field projects. The machine-learning algorithm, Random ...

Community response of deep-sea soft-sediment metazoan meiofauna to the Deepwater Horizon blowout and oil spill

Baguley, Jeffrey G.; Montagna, Paul A.; Cooksey, Cynthia; Hyland, Jeffrey L.; Bang, Hyun Woo; Morrison, Colin; Kamikawa, Anthony; Bennets, Paul; Saiyo, Gregory; Parsons, Erin; Herdener, Meredyth; Ricci, Morgan (InterResearch, 2015)

The Deepwater Horizon (DWH) blowout and oil spill of 2010 released an estimated 4.9 million barrels of oil into the Gulf of Mexico. Spill-related contaminants that sank to the seafloor pose risks to benthic fauna living ...
