Chemical Composition of WAF made through a novel passive dosing method tested during the GOMCOAST mesocosm using Gulf Of Mexico COASTal water

Mesocosm experiments were performed with Gulf of Mexico seawater collected from the Texas coastline, near TABS buoy R (29° 38.1000'N, 93° 38.5020'W) and was amended with nutrients. The two treatments in triplicate were analyzed for oil composition were 1) Control with blank silicone (Si) tubing device, 2) passively dosed Water accommodated oil fraction (Si-WAF). The oil composition data presented here are PAH (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons), Total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPAHs), and individuals aliphatic hydrocarbons (nC10-nC35).

本研究以采自得克萨斯州海岸线附近TABS浮标R（29° 38.1000'N，93° 38.5020'W）海域的墨西哥湾海水为实验材料，开展了添加营养盐的中型实验生态系统（Mesocosm）实验。本实验设置两个处理组，每组均设置三个生物学重复，对各组的石油组分进行分析：1）空白硅酮（Si）管装置对照组；2）被动投加水溶性石油组分（Si-WAF）组。本次公开的石油组分数据涵盖多环芳烃（Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons, PAH）、总石油烃（Total Petroleum Hydrocarbons, TPAHs）以及正构脂肪烃（nC10-nC35）单体含量。
