Bacterial Community Shift in Marine Tar Balls following Low Salinity Exposure
2017-12-29
Abstract excerpt
The persistence and recurrence of tar balls causes detrimental effects on coastal wildlife, tourism, and fisheries. Previously, the human pathogen Vibrio vulnificus was detected in marine tar balls in the Gulf of Mexico. Marine tar balls also migrate to low-salt water bodies near the shore.
