Abstract
⺠AVIRIS data analyzed to delineate marsh oiled during the Deepwater Horizon incident ⺠Spectral feature analysis used to detect oiled marsh was 93.4% accurate. ⺠Oil damage to the marsh at some sites resulted in erosion of exposed sediments. ⺠Oiled zones were detected along 40 km of shoreline in Barataria Bay, Louisiana. ⺠The Bay Jimmy area contained a high concentration of oiled marsh in narrow zones.
