Sediment geochemistry and alkane oxidation rates from sediments collected November 2010 and experimental incubations

Sediment was collected November 16, 2010 from the Northern Gulf of Mexico. This dataset includes geochemistry, process rate measurements, and isotopic ratios for both cold seep sediment and incubations that were amended with sulfate-replete seawater and one of four n-alkanes (C1–C4). Initial and final (80 days after incubation) gas concentrations are included.

本数据集的沉积物样品于2010年11月16日采自墨西哥湾北部海域。本数据集涵盖冷泉（cold seep）沉积物，以及添加了富硫酸盐海水与四种正构烷烃（n-alkanes，C1–C4）中任意一种的培养实验的地球化学特征、过程速率测量值与同位素比值数据。数据集同时包含培养实验初始时刻及培养80天后的气体浓度数据。
