Abstract:

To understand the physical, chemical and microbial characteristics of small surface MC252 residue balls (SSRBs) on a coastal headlands beach surface that was heavily impacted by MC252 oil.

Purpose:

To measure and characterize the physical, chemical, and microbiological parameters of surface residue balls.

Data Parameters and Units:

polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons PAHs and Alkanes (mu-g/g soil), porosity (%), extract volume (mL), nutrients [NO2 and NO3, P, SO4, NH3] (mg/L) (mg/kg), latitude (decimal degrees), longitude (decimal degrees), sampling date (MMDDYY).
