Biodegradation of alkanes and PAHs in crude oil as affected by temperature, nutrients and initial bacterial community in deep and surface waters of the northern Gulf of Mexico

We sampled surface and deep-sea waters near the DWH site, amended with oil and incubated under different temperatures, nutrients, and initial microbial community. The data here is the residual total alkanes and PAHs in the different treatments after 5, 12, 30 and 50 days of incubation.

我们于DWH位点周边采集表层及深海海水样品，经原油添加处理后，在不同温度、营养盐条件与初始微生物群落组成下开展培养实验。本数据集收录了培养5、12、30与50天后，各实验组体系内残留的总烷烃与多环芳烃（PAHs）含量数据。
