Dataset Overview | National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)

Deepwater Horizon MC252 deepwater benthic communities data from the Environmental Response Management Application (ERMA) containing sediment toxicity sample results and total polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (TPAH) results, habitat injury zones, mesophotic coral reef resources, and related deep-sea area injury toxicity results collected from samples taken from 2010-09-16 to 2011-12-04 in the Northern Gulf of Mexico (NCEI Accession 0163817)

This Archival Information Package (AIP) contains Environmental Response Management Application (ERMA) GIS layers that represent sample locations for workplan cruises, deep-sea area injury toxicity results and total polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (TPAH) results, habitat injury zones, footprint impacts on mesophotic reef resources and other types of benthic habitat data in response to the Mississippi Canyon 252 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Northern Gulf of Mexico. These data were used as part of the Programmatic Damage Assessment and Restoration Plan (PDARP).
