Chemical and laboratory analyses oceanographic data collected aboard the Wes Bordelon in the Gulf of Mexico from 2010-08-18 to 2010-08-22 in response to the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill event (NCEI Accession 0074863)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 02:04 AM | Dataset Last Updated: August 10, 2011 at 12:00 AM
Chemical and laboratory analyses oceanographic data were collected aboard the Wes Bordelon in the Gulf of Mexico from 2010-08-18 to 2010-08-22 in response to the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Event on April 20, 2010, by the Subsurface Monitoring Unit (SMU), which consisted of multiple government and corporate agencies. These data include Semivolatile Organic Compounds, Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons (TPH) and Volatile Organic Compounds. The instruments used to collect these data included bottle along with other physical sampling devices. The analytical chemistry data are provisional and provide results of onshore laboratory analysis of water and sediment samples.
