Oil gushed into the Gulf of mexico at a staggering rate from the damaged riser that had attached the platform to the well.
Some of the oil was trapped well below the Gulf's surface, with undetermined effects. It seemed as though the spill might drag on forever.
Tunnell points out that the Gulf may have been healthier and more resilient then, so it's difficult to say

#Coral reef gardens found thriving in Gulf of Mainenew research has found a type of coral reef called Octocorals previously thought to have diminished off the east coast of the US in the Gulf of Maine has been discovered recently surviving in dense coral garden communities in more than one location.
The paper'Octocoral gardens in the Gulf of Maine (NW Atlantic) by Peter Auster et al published in Biodiversity studied Octocorals a type of fragile deep-sea coral reef that grow
Octocorals used to be a common part of seafloor fauna in the Gulf of Maine. However based on past accounts of where corals had been had found it appeared that a century of fishing with bottom contact gear had reduced their distribution to just a small habitable area.
A recent expedition in July this year to the western Jordan Basin and Schoodic Ridge regions of the Gulf of Maine revealed an initial report of impressive octoral gardens.
The researchers recommend greater conservation attention to these spatially rare octocoral garden communities in the Gulf.

David said that the Gulf of mexico hypoxic zone that was measured in July 2013 was 5800 square miles (nearly the size of Connecticut) the result of riverine losses of nitrate and total phosphorus from the Mississippi river Basin.
