Pah Analysis: Bile Pah Metabolite Concentrations In Longline Captured Fish, Northern Gulf Of Mexico, 2011, Steven Murawski Aug 2016

Pah Analysis: Bile Pah Metabolite Concentrations In Longline Captured Fish, Northern Gulf Of Mexico, 2011, Steven Murawski

C-IMAGE data

The data contained in this spreadsheet represent bile PAH metabilote determinations from selected species collected in the northern Gulf of Mexico (NGM) during longline sampling. The data were analyzed at the Nortwest Fisheries Science Center (NWFSC), using methods described in “Murawski et al. 2014. Prevalence of skin lesions and PAH concentrations in Gulf of Mexico Fishes, Post-Deepwater Horizon. Transactions of the American Fisheries Society (DOI:10.1080/00028487.2014.911205)”.

Associations Of Metal Exposure In Otoliths With Lesion Formation In Offshore, Northeastern Gulf Of Mexico Fishes Collected After The Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill (2011-2013), Ernst B. Peebles Jun 2016

Associations Of Metal Exposure In Otoliths With Lesion Formation In Offshore, Northeastern Gulf Of Mexico Fishes Collected After The Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill (2011-2013), Ernst B. Peebles

C-IMAGE data

This dataset contains annual metal concentrations for the years 2009-2011 within the otoliths of six, offshore Gulf of Mexico fishes: Red Grouper, Epinephelus morio; Red Porgy, Pagrus pagrus; Red Snapper, Lutjanus campechanus; Southern Hake, Urophycis floridana; Tilefish, Lopholatilus chamaeleonticeps; and Yellowedge Grouper, Hyporthodus flavolimbatus. Fish were collected from the northeastern Gulf of Mexico, from approximately the Louisiana Shelf to the West Florida Shelf. For each sample, a suite of 9 isotopes was measured within fish otoliths: 24Mg, 51V, 53Cr, 57Fe, 59Co, 60Ni, 63Cu, 64Zn, and 208Pb. Annual metal concentrations were determined by averaging metal concentrations corresponding to the annual increment …


Dataset For: Simulating Cell Death In The Termination Of Karenia Brevis Blooms: Implications For Predicting Aerosol Toxicity Vectors To Humans, Jason M. Lenes Mar 2016

Dataset For: Simulating Cell Death In The Termination Of Karenia Brevis Blooms: Implications For Predicting Aerosol Toxicity Vectors To Humans, Jason M. Lenes

C-IMAGE data

A non-linear lysis term for simulation of K. brevis HAB termination on the West Florida Shelf is introduced, with the assumption that particle encounters of planktonic microalgae and bacteria can be described as the square of the phytoplankton biomass. This formulation also accounts for nutrient-limitation of K. brevis as a precondition for susceptibility to bacterial and viral attack, and potentially programmed cell death. Two model simulations were run of linear and non-linear lysis cases. Model output was compared against observed weekly maximum K. brevis concentrations, with statistical metrics calculated over three HAB phases during 2001. Introduction of the non-linear lysis …


Chemical Analysis Of Sediment And Fish Species Near The Hercules 265 Blowout, Gulf Of Mexico, 2013, Isabel Romero Mar 2016

Chemical Analysis Of Sediment And Fish Species Near The Hercules 265 Blowout, Gulf Of Mexico, 2013, Isabel Romero

C-IMAGE data

On July 23, 2013 a marine gas rig (Hercules 265) ignited in the northern Gulf of Mexico. The rig burned out of control for several days before being extinguished. We conducted a rapid-response sampling campaign near Hercules 265 after the fire to ascertain if sediments and fishes were polluted above earlier baseline levels. Sediment cores were collected to the SE of the rig at a distance of ~0.2 km, 8 km and 18 km using a multicorer, and demersal fishes were collected from ~0.2 to 8 km SE of the rig using a longline (508 hooks). Recently deposited sediments document …


Golden Tilefish Tissue And Eye-Lens Stable Isotopes And C:N Ratios From The Gulf Of Mexico, Summer 2013, Jenny Fenton Ostroff Mar 2016

Golden Tilefish Tissue And Eye-Lens Stable Isotopes And C:N Ratios From The Gulf Of Mexico, Summer 2013, Jenny Fenton Ostroff

C-IMAGE data

Stable isotope and C:N ratio data were analyzed for muscle, liver, heart, brain, blood, spleen and separated eye lens layers of golden tilefish.


Hydrocarbons In Deep-Sea Sediments Following The 2010 Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill In The Northeast Gulf Of Mexico, Isabel Romero Mar 2016

Hydrocarbons In Deep-Sea Sediments Following The 2010 Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill In The Northeast Gulf Of Mexico, Isabel Romero

C-IMAGE data

High-resolution analyses of sediment cores collected in the aftermath of the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) were conducted to reconstruct the concentration, composition and flux of hydrocarbons to deep-sea (pre-2010, 2010, and 2011) in the DeSoto Canyon, Northeast Gulf of Mexico. Specifically, we analyzed total organic carbon (TOC), aliphatic, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs), and short-lived radionuclide (234Th, 210Pb) compounds at 2 mm and 5 mm core intervals to elucidate possible hydrocarbon sources and transport pathways to sediments during the time covered in this study. Results showed higher TOC, total aliphatics and PAH fluxes after the DWH blowout (2010-2011) compared to pre-2010 years …
