Oil degradation in laboratory simulated shallow sandy sediments from Pensacola Beach, Florida

This dataset contains the results of laboratory experiments performed on samples of shallow sandy sediments from Pensacola Beach, Florida with the goal of determining how beach microbes will respond to Macondo oil buried in sandy sediments. The dataset includes information about oxygen profiles, nitrate concentrations, nitrite concentrations, ammonium concentrations, phosphate concentrations, microbial 16S amplicons, microbial metagenomes, and total petroleum hydrocarbon concentrations.
