Description
This project will provide currently uncollectable temporal contamination measurements of hydrocarbons in response to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The US EPA measures an array of hydrocarbons, providing feedback to residents after a seven day delay. These compounds, known together as BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and total xylenes), greatly increase the overall potency of petroleum, amplifying the effect of small contamination levels.
