The above dots represent locations in the Gulf of Mexico where scientists have been collecting sediment samples to map the distribution of hydrocarbons on the seafloor. The ECOGIG sampling sites are in red, Deep-C sampling sites are in white, C-IMAGE sampling sites are in green, and National Research Damage Assessment (NRDA) collection sites are in yellow.
