Application of integrated vitrinite reflectance and FAMM analyses for thermal maturity assessment of the northeastern Malay Basin,offshore Vietnam: Implications for petroleum prospectivity evaluation

Several exploration wells have intersected a Cenozoic coal-bearing, fluvial-deltaic mudstone and sandstone succession in the northeastern Vietnamese part of the Malay Basin, and have successfully tested seismically identified direct hydrocarbon indicators (DHIs). The oil and gas/condensate discovery well 46-CN-1x encountered a ∼55 m thick section of lacustrine mudstones having considerable potential as an oil source. Vitrinite reflectance (VR) measurements from these alginite-bearing rocks introduce several problems in thermal maturity evaluation, including associated VR suppression and delineation of cavings and bitumens. Reliable thermal maturity gradients, however, may be established using a combination of conventional VR measurements and ‘equivalent VR’ (EqVR) values derived from the fluorescence alteration of multiple macerals (FAMM) technique. These measurements, performed on dispersed organic matter (DOM) in cuttings from 46-CN-1x, allow separation of low-reflecting bitumens and vitrinite in cavings from indigenous vitrinite and the FAMM results indicate VR suppression of 0.14% in an alginite-bearing mudstone with a high Hydrogen Index value. On the basis of available ‘raw’ VR data, a highly irregular maturity trend is determined, with the deepest sample (2675–2680 m) having a VR of ∼0.4%R_o. The EqVR value, however, for the deepest sample is 0.70%. The maturity trend determined from the FAMM data (and VR data, omitting samples having suppressed VR) indicates that the top of the oil window (VR of 0.75%R_o) is located at about 2800 m depth. Modelling the geothermal gradient using the EASY%R_o algorithm yields ∼40 °C/km for both of the two maturity profiles; this is in the low end of the range for the Malay Basin. Modelled temperature histories indicate onset of hydrocarbon generation for the uppermost Oligocene source rocks between 2 Ma and present-day, which post-dates trap formation. Seismic facies patterns suggest that lacustrine oil-prone units are in the oil window in the same graben complex a few km NW of the investigated well, and these rocks are likely to be the source of the hydrocarbons found in the well. A more widespread occurrence of hydrocarbons sourced from this kitchen is indicated by other discoveries and mapping of DHIs in the area.     

Deep petroleum occurrences in the Lower Kura Depression, South Caspian Basin, Azerbaijan: an organic geochemical and basin modeling study

High sedimentation rates (as much as 2500 m/Ma) during Pliocene-Pleistocene, with a resultant undercompacted section as thick as 10,000 m, and lower than normal geothermal gradients are the main characteristics which have created all the means for generation and preservation of oil at deep layers in the Lower Kura Depression.Oils collected from eight different oil fields for analyses seem to have originated from a common source rock which probably is clastic, deposited in relatively subanoxic to suboxic transitional marine environment receiving low to moderate input of terrestrial organic matter.Oils from shallow (< 3000 m) and cold (< 70–80°C) reservoirs have been altered to various extent by bacterial activity.A computer-aided basin modeling study has been carried out to outline the spatial variation of the oil window and thus help in further identification of possible source rocks for the reservoired oil in the Lower Kura Depression. Results suggest that the potential hydrocarbon source horizons of the Miocene and Pliocene Red Bed Series of the so called Productive Succession are, even at depocenter areas, immature with respect to oil generation, and thus, are very unlikely to have been source rocks for the reservoired oils. However, the Oligocene-Lower Miocene Maykop rocks are marginally mature to mature depending on locality and the Eocene and older rocks are mature with respect to oil generation at all representative field locations. Oil generation commenced at the end of Pliocene and continues at present at depths between 6000 and 12,000 m.An unusually deep (> 10,000 m) oil window in the depocenter areas has been caused by the depressed isotherms due to extremely high sedimentation rates (up to 3000 m/Ma) for the last two million years. The main phase of oil generation is taking place at depths greater than what most of the wells in the study are have reached.     

Regional maturity as determined by organic petrography and geochemistry of the Schei Point Group (Triassic) in the western Sverdrup Basin, Canadian Arctic Archipelago

Maturity and source rock potential of organic rich beds in the Triassic Schei Point Group in the Sverdrup Basin, Arctic Canada have been investigated using reflected light microscopy and the results are compared with other maturity parameters determined geochemically (i.e. Rock Eval, and biomarker maturation parameters). The samples evaluated belong to the Eden Bay Member of the Hoyle Bay Formation and contain a predominance of marine algal material, in the form of Tasmanales, and dinoflagellates, along with mixed terrestrial organics.The rock matrix is dominantly carbonate with some shaly input, indicating that the rocks were deposited in an iron-poor highly euxinic environment. With few exceptions there is good agreement between parameters,determined using microscopy; namely %R_o, λ_max and and geochemical parameters, T_max, HI,

steranes, C₂₉ steranes. The ternary diagram showing the abundance of normalized C₂₇, C₂₈ and C₂₉ regular steranes indicates a mostly marine depositional environment for the Schei Point source rock. This is confirmed by the abundance of marine fauna and flora in these samples.Analytical results from several different techniques indicate that the source rocks become more mature from the margin towards the axis of the Sverdrup Basin. This is due, in part, to the increase in overburden of sediments in the axis of the basin. Also the high thermal conductivity of salt has strongly influenced the maturity of Schei Point source rocks over the crest of the salt cored structures, i.e. Well Hazen F-54, and the proximity of salt has enhanced maturation levels at Well Rock Point J-43. The sections investigated were also considered to have an excellent gas potential due to their higher than average TOC content.     

Supply of terrigenous organic matter from tidal flat to the marine environment: An example of neritic source rocks in the Eocene Pinghu Formation,Xihu Depression,East China Sea Shelf Basin

The terrigenously-dominated marine shales which were deposited in the lower Eocene Pinghu Formation were thought to be a potential source rock in the Xihu Depression of the East China Sea Shelf Basin. However, the exceptionally high total organic carbon content (TOC, >6% on average) of the tidal sand ridge samples was not compatible with their sedimentary environment, indicating coal-bearing sedimentary debris may have been transferred from the coast to the ocean. In this study, new sights into the origins and supply of organic materials in the coastal environment were proposed in the neritic organic matter of the Eocene Pinghu Formation. A discriminant model was developed using plynofacies analysis data to pinpoint the source of organic materials in marine source rocks. The discrimination results suggested that marine mudstones were associated with tidal flat mudstones rather than deltaic ones. The biomarker characteristics of mudstones deposited in various environments support this assertion, indicating that the supply of plant materials in tidal flats is the primary organic matter source for the marine environment. The organic matter abundance was elevated in tidal flats due to their superior preservation conditions. Additionally, the lithological assemblage of tidal flats suggests that tidal currents can scour marshes and then transport dispersed terrigenous organic materials to neritic areas. These findings indicate that coal-bearing sedimentary debris was likely transferred from the coast to the ocean, and tidal currents are thought to be the dominant mechanism driving organic matter from the tidal to the marine environment.     

Organic geochemical characterization of Santonian to Early Campanian organic matter-rich marls (Sondage No. 1 cores) as related to OAE3 from the Tarfaya Basin,Morocco

In addition to previously analyzed sediments of Cenomanian to Santonian age in the Tarfaya Sondage No. 2 well, this study presents the results of a stratigraphically younger interval of Santonian to Early Campanian age in the adjacent well Tarfaya Sondage No. 1. This interval is part of the oceanic anoxic event 3 (OAE3), which occurred mainly in the Atlantic realm. Due to known high quality source rocks related to OAEs (i.e. Cenomanian–Turonian), the investigated sample section was tested for the quality, quantity and kind of organic matter (OM), describing also the depositional environment. The study was carried out by means of (i) elemental analysis (C_org, CaCO₃, TS), (ii) Rock–Eval pyrolysis, (iii) vitrinite reflectance measurements, (iv) gas chromatography-flame ionization detection (GC-FID) and (v) GC-mass spectrometry (GC–MS). Total content of organic carbon (C_org), values for the hydrogen index (HI) (mainly in the range 500–700 mg/g C_org) and S₂ values (10–40 mg/g rock), support the assumption of a high petroleum generation potential in these Upper Cretaceous sediments. TS/C_org ratios as well as pristane/phytane ratios indicate variable oxygen contents during sediment deposition, representing a typical depositional setting for the Late Cretaceous and are in good agreement with previously analyzed data in the Tarfaya Basin. Phyto- and zoo-plankton were identified as marine sourced. All of the investigated Early Campanian and Santonian samples are immature with some tendencies to early maturation. These results are based on vitrinite reflectance (0.3–0.4% VR_r), T_max values (409–425 °C), production indices (PI; S₁/(S₁ + S₂)< 0.1) and n-alkane ratios (i.e. carbon preference index). As the deposition of these sediments is time related to OAE3, the depositional environment was characterized by oxygen-deficiency or even anoxic bottom water conditions. This situation was favored during the Cretaceous greenhouse climate by limited oxygen solubility in the then warmer ocean water. Furthermore, local factors related to nutrient supply and primary bioproductivity led to the exceptionally thick, Upper Cretaceous organic matter-rich sedimentary sequence of the Tarfaya Basin.     

The satellite reversion of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) based on the analysis of the mixing behavior of DOC and colored dissolved organic matter: the East China Sea as an example

The retrieval of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) distribution by remote sensing is mainly based on the empirical relationship of DOC concentration and colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) concentration in many literatures. To investigate the nature of this relationship, the distributions and mixing behaviors of DOC and CDOM are reviewed in the world’s major estuaries and bays. It is found that, generally, the CDOM concentration is well correlated with the salinity in most estuaries, while DOC usually shows a nonconservative behavior which leads to a weak correlation between the DOC concentration and the CDOM concentration. To establish a good satellite reversion of the DOC concentration, the East China Sea(ECS) was taken as an example, and the mixing behavior of DOC and CDOM as well as the influence of biogeochemical processes were analyzed except for the physical mixing process with the data from late autumn (November, 2010) and winter (December, 2009) cruises. In the two ECS cruises, the CDOM concentration was found to be tightly correlated with the salinity, influenced little by the photochemical or biological processes. The data from the winter cruise show that DOC followed a conservative mixing along the salinity gradient, while in the late autumn cruise it was significantly affected by the biological activities, resulting in a poor correlation between the DOC and the CDOM. Accordingly, an improved DOC algorithm (CSDM) was proposed: when the biological influence was significant (Chl a greater than 0.8 μg/dm3 ), DOC was retrieved by the conservative and biological model, and if the conservative mixing was dominant (Chl a less than 0.8 μg/dm3 ), the direct DOC concentration and CDOM concentration relationship was used. Based on the proposed algorithm, a reasonable DOC distribution for the ECS from satellite was obtained in this study, and the proposed method can be applied to the other large river-dominant marginal sea.     

Influence of refractory organic matter on source rock hydrocarbon potential: A case study from the Second White Specks and Belle Fourche formations,Alberta, Canada

Dilution by inert, refractory organic carbon can have a significant impact on the hydrocarbon potential of source rocks. In this study, a correction of total organic carbon, based on petrographic observations, is proposed to give a better indication of hydrocarbon generation potential. This correction shows that although the Second White Specks Formation is an excellent hydrocarbon source rock, hydrogen index and total organic carbon are influenced by dilution from refractory organic carbon of various sources. The results show that a higher degree of dilution occurs within the Belle Fourche Formation than the Second White Specks Formation. This dilution can have a significant impact on the hydrocarbon potential of the rock.Volumetric calculation of the inert carbon fraction using organic petrographic methods provides a semi quantitative method to correct total organic carbon values for the refractory organic carbon dilution effect. Incorporation of the dilution corrected organic carbon value in hydrogen index calculations allows a greater understanding of source rock hydrocarbon potential. This method provides better differentiation of the small scale variation between micro-facies and formation, as observed in the Second White Specks and Belle Fourche formations, than traditional bulk geochemical methodologies and previously proposed correction methodologies. Degree of dilution, either through transport of recycled allochthonous or autochthonous reworking of organic matter in-situ is highly variable and represents a significant challenge in the characterization of heterogeneous source rocks.This study investigates the organic petrology and geochemistry of a sediment core from the thermally immature area of the Upper Cretaceous Second White Specks Formation and Belle Fourche Formation. Reflectance and relative abundance of three maceral groups (bituminite, alginite, and refractory organic carbon macerals) showed significant organic matter compositional differences between micro-facies in the Second White Specks Formation. A change is also observed in organic matter composition from the upper part of the Belle Fourche Formation to the Second White Specks Formation. These compositional changes represent shifts in sediment source, sea floor oxygen levels, and depositional energy levels. These changes can be episodic, as observed between micro-facies, or longer time scale trends, as observed between the studied formations.     

Smectite-illitization difference of source rocks developed in saline and fresh water environments and its influence on hydrocarbon generation: A study from the Shahejie Formation,Dongying Depression,China

Samples of argillaceous source rocks from three sub-members of the Shahejie Formation (Es) in the Dongying Depression, China, were collected to investigate the differences in hydrocarbon generation among the sub-members, which developed in fresh (Es₃², Es₃³) and saline (Es₄¹) water environments. Pyrolysis, XRD and thermo-XRD analyses were used to compare the characteristics of organic matter (OM), clay minerals and OM occurrences. Total organic carbon and hydrocarbon potential proxies suggest that the samples from Es₃³ were much better than the other two intervals, which agrees with previous studies. The characteristics of clay minerals suggest that the samples from Es₄¹ have the most abundant illite, with a maximum illite percentage in mixed-layer illite-smectite (ISm), and the best crystallinity of ISm with a main stacking mode of R1.5. However, the stacking modes of ISm in Es₃² and Es₃³ were primarily R0 and R1, respectively, and the crystallinity was relatively poor. Thus, the smectite illitization process was faster in Es₄¹ than in the other two intervals, and a saline environment was a primary cause for the acceleration of the process. Moreover, OM occurrence indicates that the samples from Es₄¹ had the lowest amount of interlayer OM, whereas Es₃³ had the largest amount. Therefore, the rapid illitization in Es₄¹ caused abundant interlayer OM to be desorbed and discharged, which in turn caused the amount of residual interlayer OM in Es₄¹ to be less than that in the other two intervals. Thus, the source rocks of Es₄¹ made a more significant contribution to hydrocarbon generation than those of the other two units. In conclusion, the inconsistent illitization among these intervals was a major cause of the differences in hydrocarbon generation.     

Evaluation of conditions along the grounding line of temperate marine glaciers: an example from Muir Inlet, Glacier Bay, Alaska

In the marine environment, stability of the glacier terminus and the location of subglacial streams are the dominant controls on the distribution of grounding-line deposits within morainal banks. A morainal bank complex in Muir Inlet, Glacier Bay, SE Alaska, is used to develop a model of terminus stability and location of subglacial streams along the grounding line of temperate marine glaciers. This model can be used to interpret former grounding-line conditions in other glacimarine settings from the facies architecture within morainal bank deposits.The Muir Inlet morainal bank complex was deposited between 1860 A.D. and 1899 A.D., and historical observations provide a record of terminus positions, glacial retreat rates and sedimentary sources. These data are used to reconstruct the depositional environment and to develop a correlation between sedimentary facies and conditions along the grounding line.Four seismic facies identified on the high-resolution seismic-reflection profiles are used to interpret sedimentary facies within the morainal bank complex. Terminus stability is interpreted from the distribution of sedimentary facies within three distinct submarine geomorphic features, a grounding-line fan, stratified ridges, and a field of push ridges. The grounding-line fan was deposited along a stable terminus and is represented on seismic-reflection profiles by two distinct seismic facies, a proximal and a distal fan facies. The proximal fan facies was deposited at the efflux of subglacial streams and indicates the location of former glacifluvial discharges into the sea. Stratified ridges formed as a result of the influence of a quasi-stable terminus on the distribution of sedimentary facies along the grounding line. A field of push ridges formed along the grounding line of an unstable terminus that completely reworked the grounding-line deposits through glacitectonic deformation.Between 1860 A.D. and 1899 A.D. (39 years),

Estimating the dispersion of biostratigraphic events in the subsurface by graphic correlation: an example from the Late Jurassic of the Wessex Basin, UK

The strikingly cyclic character of digitally filtered gamma ray logs from the Oxfordian to Portlandian interval of the Wessex Basin, onshore United Kingdom, facilitates high resolution log correlation over considerable distances, allowing the systematic calibration of biostratigraphic with lithostratigraphic data through graphic correlation. This involves the systematic cross-plotting of biostratigraphic events, based on samples taken from cuttings and sidewall cores, from a set of wells to produce a composite standard. Initially the standard is a single well, chosen for maximum thickness and completeness. Biostratigraphic events are added to by drawing lines of correlation and projecting the data points onto the composite standard. The scatter of biostratigraphic events is generally such that a line of correlation cannot be drawn with confidence from the biostratigraphic data alone. Independent lines of correlation are established between wells by first matching cycles (? parasequences) on digitally filtered gamma ray traces and using these as a framework for adding biostratigraphic events to the composite standard. This has advantages over the conventional approach in that the effects of outliers in the data are minimized and hiatuses and subtle changes in rock accumulation rates become apparent. By adding all the biostratigraphic events from all wells to the composite standard a range chart is produced depicting the scatter or dispersion of all biostratigraphic events relative to the log based cycles. The end result is an integrated stratigraphy in which biostratigraphic events are calibrated against rock events giving a measure of dispersion, and hence confidence, for each biostratigraphic event.     

珠江口伶仃洋风暴潮传播特性及影响因素数值模拟研究——以台风“山竹”为例

基于FVCOM海洋模式对珠江口伶仃洋内及周边海域的风暴潮增水传播过程进行研究。首先,建立珠江口风暴潮模型,采用超强台风“山竹”作为典型案例进行风暴潮过程模拟,并对模型的计算结果进行验证,发现模拟结果和测站潮位结果比较吻合;然后,对伶仃洋在“山竹”登陆前后的风暴潮增水过程的时空分布及变化特征进行分析。从伶仃洋湾口到湾顶选取12个点进行时间序列分析,发现除了因距离外海远近不同导致的相位差异外,基本特征相似,符合国际上类似海湾内的风暴潮增水波动特征,可分为初振段、主振段和余振段。为了进一步研究台风参数差异对伶仃洋风暴潮增水的影响,本文基于“山竹”超强台风的特征参数,设计了一系列变化条件下的数值试验,结果发现：（1）台风的登陆时间会影响到风暴潮增水和天文潮之间的相位关系,进而影响到增水的大小。如果风暴潮增水极值正好在天文潮高潮位,风暴潮增水就会削弱,而风暴潮增水正好在天文潮低潮位,风暴潮增水就会增强。（2）台风中心压差决定了台风风力的大小,从而影响风暴潮增水。但是在同一海湾内的影响在空间上并不相同,在较浅区域影响大而较深区域影响小。（3）台风路径会对风暴潮增水产生较大影响。基于“山竹”的路径,...     

Mapping of rock types using a joint approach by combining the multivariate statistics,self-organizing map and Bayesian neural networks: an example from IODP 323 site

Modeling and classification of the subsurface lithology is very important to understand the evolution of the earth system. However, precise classification and mapping of lithology using a single framework are difficult due to the complexity and the nonlinearity of the problem driven by limited core sample information. Here, we implement a joint approach by combining the unsupervised and the supervised methods in a single framework for better classification and mapping of rock types. In the unsupervised method, we use the principal component analysis (PCA), K-means cluster analysis (K-means), dendrogram analysis, Fuzzy C-means (FCM) cluster analysis and self-organizing map (SOM). In the supervised method, we use the Bayesian neural networks (BNN) optimized by the Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) (BNN-HMC) and the scaled conjugate gradient (SCG) (BNN-SCG) techniques. We use P-wave velocity, density, neutron porosity, resistivity and gamma ray logs of the well U1343E of the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 323 in the Bering Sea slope region. While the SOM algorithm allows us to visualize the clustering results in spatial domain, the combined classification schemes (supervised and unsupervised) uncover the different patterns of lithology such of as clayey-silt, diatom-silt and silty-clay from an un-cored section of the drilled hole. In addition, the BNN approach is capable of estimating uncertainty in the predictive modeling of three types of rocks over the entire lithology section at site U1343. Alternate succession of clayey-silt, diatom-silt and silty-clay may be representative of crustal inhomogeneity in general and thus could be a basis for detail study related to the productivity of methane gas in the oceans worldwide. Moreover, at the 530 m depth down below seafloor (DSF), the transition from Pliocene to Pleistocene could be linked to lithological alternation between the clayey-silt and the diatom-silt. The present results could provide the basis for the detailed study to get deeper insight into the Bering Sea’ sediment deposition and sequence.     

流域降水和人类活动对黄河入海泥沙通量的影响

自从20世纪70年代以来,黄河入海泥沙通量表现出明显减少的趋势.研究表明,入海泥沙通量对于上、中游不同的水沙来源区降水变化的响应方式是不同的.在假定其他因素相同的情况下,龙门至三门峡区间的年降水量每减少10mm,入海泥沙通量将减少0.275亿t;河口镇至龙门区间的年降水量每减少10mm,入海泥沙通量将减少0.143亿t;兰州以上年降水量每减少10mm,入海泥沙通量减小0.174亿t.多沙细砂区降水的减少对于黄河入海泥沙通量的影响最大.通过多元回归分析建立了入海泥沙通量与年降水、梯田林草面积、淤地坝造地面积之间的定量关系:在其他因素不变时,梯田林草面积每增加10⁴hm²,入海泥沙通量将减少0.0019亿t/a;年降水量每减少10mm,入海泥沙通量将减少0.543亿t,淤地坝造地每增加104hm²,入海泥沙通量将减少0.0205t/a.这些数据可为未来各影响因子进一步变化后入海泥沙通量变化的估算提供依据,为黄河流域和河口的环境规划服务.     

基于光谱特征的HY-1C/D卫星赤潮探测方法以红夜光藻为例

红夜光藻是我国主要的赤潮优势种,在渤海、黄海、东海和南海均有发生。近年来,红夜光藻赤潮发生频率明显上升,监测需求迫切。但红夜光藻赤潮发生具有分布范围广、变化速度快、多呈条带状分布的特点,其探测对卫星影像空间分辨率、覆盖范围和重访周期要求高。虽然水色卫星在赤潮监测中发挥了重要作用,但其空间分辨率低,无法准确探测条带状分布的红夜光藻赤潮。海洋一号C、D（HY-1C/D）卫星搭载的海岸带成像仪（Coastal Zone Imager,CZI）以其高空间分辨率、大幅宽和短重访周期的优势,被越来越多地用于赤潮监测。现有的红夜光藻赤潮HY-1C/D CZI探测模型大多基于深度学习方法,需要大量赤潮样本,但赤潮样本获取困难,影响模型的精度。因此,本文以2022年3月发生在广东省汕尾市红海湾的红夜光藻赤潮为例,分析了红夜光藻赤潮光谱特征,基于红夜光藻赤潮在红光和近红外波段的高反射特性和浑浊水体在绿光波段的高反射特性,构建了一个面向HY-1C/D CZI的红夜光藻赤潮探测方法。实验结果表明,该方法可以有效地探测赤潮,并避免浑浊水体的干扰,精确率和F1-Score达到89.72%和0.90。而且,该方法具有较好的适用性,可适用于不同海洋环境、不同宽波段卫星传感器的红夜光藻赤潮探测。     

Argo: A new tool for environmental monitoring and assessment of the world’s oceans, an example from the N.E. Pacific

Argo is an international project that is deploying profiling drifters in all of the oceans of the world, with the exception of the Arctic Ocean. Though still in its implementation phase the Argo array is now supplying an impressive amount of data which offers new opportunities to assess and monitor the environmental status of many regions of the world oceans. Recently, changes in the Gulf of Alaska have been documented by other means that suggest large changes in the T/S relationships and related changes in nutrient supply and productivity. This paper examines these unusual changes to demonstrate the use of the Argo database to determine the physical status of an ecosystem. While the methods of analysis are general, they are here specifically applied to the N.E. Pacific Ocean. We show how it is possible to monitor the baroclinic geostrophic circulation fields in near real-time and correlate these changes with alterations in the stratification of the upper water column.

基于210Pb、137Cs分布和粒度特征的海床液化深度判定研究以埕岛海域为例

黄河水下三角洲海床液化现象分布广泛,对海底工程设施造成了极大威胁,确定液化深度可为海上工程建设提供参考,具有很大的理论意义和应用价值。在黄河水下三角洲北部埕岛海域液化扰动区钻探取得柱状沉积物对其进行剖面图像扫描、放射性核素和粒度成分测试,获得图像分层特征、²¹⁰Pb、¹³⁷Cs活度及粒度剖面,在此基础上计算得到沉积速率。结果表明：埕岛海域受黄河1976年由刁口流路改道清水沟流路事件影响显著,这一时期沉积速率大幅减小并呈现阶段性特征;快速沉积时期表层沉积物频繁液化产生的砂层不断累积,从而形成密集砂层;通过分析²¹⁰Pb_ex、¹³⁷Cs活度剖面获得研究区液化历史的沉积记录,判定历史液化深度至少为5 m,这一结论与前人研究相近。以²¹⁰Pb、¹³⁷Cs的活度为工具来判断沉积物液化历史及深度存在一定的可行性,具有很大的发展潜力。     

供给主体视角下红树林碳汇项目全生命周期风险测度与评价研究——以湛江红树林造林项目为例

发展海洋碳汇对于建设人与自然和谐共生的美好世界具有重要意义,红树林作为海洋碳汇的重要来源,拥有强大的固碳和储碳能力,具有较高的生态价值和经济价值,因此,加快开发红树林碳汇是应对气候变化的重要战略选择。本文基于三角模糊数和结构方程构建红树林碳汇项目风险测度模型,选取湛江红树林造林项目这一我国的代表性项目,采用净现值方法和肯定当量法对其进行实证对比分析,测度风险因素对项目价值及其投资决策的影响,从而助力红树林碳汇的高质量发展。结果表明：（1）红树林碳汇项目的开发存在一定的风险,各阶段风险按照影响由高到低,依次为核查备案阶段、决策阶段、施工阶段、运营维护阶段和设计阶段,核查备案阶段的技术风险、决策阶段的政策风险、施工阶段的市场风险、运营维护阶段的市场风险和设计阶段的人类行为风险是各阶段中影响较大的风险种类;（2）风险的发生会使红树林碳汇项目的价值降低,相比传统净现值法,肯定当量法更符合红树林碳汇项目的开发和运行情况。
