Residual alkanes and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons during photooxidation and biodegradation of crude oil

The data is the residual concentrations of alkanes of PAHs when crude oil was incubated in surface seawater sampled near the Deepwater Horizon site. The study was conducted for 45 days and exposed under the natural sunlight in the Gulf of Mexico. It aims to determine the oil degradation as a result of photooxidation and biodegradation by natural bacterial communities.本数据集记录了将原油接种于“深水地平线”（Deepwater Horizon）事故点附近采集的表层海水中进行培养后，烷烃与多环芳烃（Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons, PAHs）的残留浓度。本研究周期为45天，实验在墨西哥湾的自然光照条件下开展，旨在探明光氧化作用与天然细菌群落介导的生物降解过程对原油的降解效果。
