Evolution of the optical properties of seawater influenced by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico

The fluorescence excitation–emission matrix (EEM) technique coupled with parallel factor (PARAFAC) modeling and measurements of bulk organic carbon and other optical properties were used to characterize the oil components released from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico and to exa...
