PO14H:
Physics, Chemistry, and Ecology of the Deep Gulf of Mexico following the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill II Posters
Session ID#: 11446
Session Description:
The Deepwater Horizon spill in 2010 has led to a large amount of new research n the Gulf of Mexico. While much of this has focused on the biological effects of oil pollution, there have also been a number of studies on the physics and chemistry of the deep Gulf, beyond the shelf break. This session focuses on these studies, and how they are changing our views of the processes that occur there. We encourage submissions that cover in situ measurements and models of the deep Gulf, from the surface to the ocean floor.
