520  ‎$a‎As oil continues to gush into the Gulf of Mexico in the wake of the Deepwater Horizon rig explosion the question remains: how big an environmental disaster is this? Observing the surface slick and the deep-sea leak are of limited use in this situation. A more effective approach might be to quantify the leaked methane gas dissolved in the water - something that hasn't been done before to assess the size of a spill, researchers are already measuring methane in some gulf water samples, a larger-scale project is urgently required to map the methane plumes in real time
