Tyne oil spill snorkels Raw sequence reads

Dataset homepage

Citation

MGnify (2019). Tyne oil spill snorkels Raw sequence reads. Sampling event dataset https://doi.org/10.15468/d4fpap accessed via GBIF.org on 2021-01-19.

Description

Bioelectrochemical bioremediation to accelerate hydrocarbon biodegradation in anoxic marine sediments, using "oil-spill snorkels". The snorkels (rods of conductive material) were positioned to create an electrochemical connection between the anoxic contaminated sediment and the oxic overlying water. In principle, the snorkel could take advantage of the capability of electro-active bacteria to anaerobically oxidize hydrocarbons with the snorkel serving as a respiratory electron acceptor.Fifty 16S rRNA amplicon libraries were generated representing microbial communities from the snorkel, no oil snorkel, control, no oil control and abiotic experiments at 175, 286 and 466 days during the incubation period, as well as from the initial sediments with and without oil (Time 0).
