叶城凹陷柯东1井凝析油及柯克亚原油的油源分析

塔里木盆地叶城凹陷拥有多套烃源岩层,主要为石炭系卡拉乌依组、二叠系棋盘组与普司格组2-3段、侏罗系煤系地层与叶尔羌群等,这些烃源岩都可能是柯东1井凝析油和柯克亚第三系原油的母源。在这一地区,油源一直是一个很具争议性的问题。选取了叶城凹陷克里阳构造带柯东1井2个凝析油、柯克亚构造带7个第三系原油,以及叶城凹陷各烃源岩层具有代表性的17个烃源岩样品,对其生物标志物及正构烷烃单体烃稳定碳同位素比值等参数进行了详细的测试分析。油油对比揭示,柯东1井原油与柯克亚第三系原油在正构烷烃组分、成熟度与稳定碳同位素组成等特征上具有明显的相似性,显示同源的特征。油源对比显示,普司格组2-3段下部是这些原油的源岩。这一烃源岩层具有与柯克亚地区原油一致的成熟度和相似的特征性生物标志物,即高含量的重排藿烷、Ts和 C27-C29重排甾烷等,而其他烃源岩层则不具备这类特征。较高成熟阶段形成的原油,解释了普司格组2-3段烃源岩可溶有机质与柯东1井等原油在单体烃稳定碳同位素比值上具有2‰~3‰的差别。     

鄂尔多斯盆地西南缘奥陶系泥页岩与碳酸盐岩生物标志物特征对比

通过采集鄂尔多斯盆地西南缘4个剖面奥陶系马家沟群碳酸盐岩和平凉组泥页岩样品,对其中可溶有机质饱和烃与芳烃组分进行GC-MS分析,对比研究了马家沟群碳酸盐岩和平凉组泥页岩生物标志化合物特征。结果表明,马家沟群与平凉组正构烷烃分布形式及峰型特征、生物标志化合物参数Pr/Ph、伽马蜡烷/C₃₀-αβ藿烷、C_20-29三环萜烷/(C_20-29三环萜烷+C_27-35藿烷),以及甲基菲指数(MPI)均存在明显差异,这些差异反映了其沉积环境与成熟度的不同,对于马家沟群与平凉组来源油的识别具有参考价值。马家沟群正构烷烃分布形式与甾/藿比值以及C₂₈/C₂₉ααα20R甾烷比值之间的对应关系,反映了母质输入的细微差别。Ts/(Ts+Tm)与伽马蜡烷/C₃₀-αβ藿烷比值之间的关系,C₂₉甾烷αββ/(αββ+ααα)比值变化与重排藿烷与重排甾烷丰度的关系,反映上述成熟度参数明显受沉积环境影响。     

Lipid Biomarkers and Their Stable Carbon Isotopes inAncient Seep Carbonates from SW Taiwan,China

Four massive brecciated, chimney-like, and slender pipe network carbonate samples(JA-4, JA-5, JX-8 and BG-12) were collected from southwestern Taiwan, which were suggested to have formed as a result of anaerobic oxidization of methane(AOM). Considering that the environmental conditions of the carbonates precipitation and the sources of carbon and organic matter need to be further declared, molecular fossils and compound-specific carbon isotopic investigations of the carbonates were conducted in this study. According to lipid biomarkers of 2,6,10,15,19-pentamethyleicosane(PMI) and squalane diagnostic to methanotrophic archaea, as well as the extremely low δ¹³C values(as low as -1¹³.4‰) detected in samples JA-4, JA-5 and JX-8, these carbonates were revealed to be a result of AOM. Based on the varied δ¹³C values of characteristic archaea biomarkers in specific samples, biogenic methane was proposed to be responsible for the formation of samples JA-4 and JA-5, whereas a mixed carbon source of ¹³C-depleted methane and ¹³C-enriched residual CO_2 from methanogenesis was suggested for the carbonate of JX-8 due to the co-occurrence of a highly positive δ¹³ C_carb value(+8‰) and a moderate ¹³C depletion of PMI. The low content of AOM-related biomarkers and the absence of indicators for ANME-2 suggested that these carbonates were formed in weak seep settings. By comparison, no typical lipid biomarkers for methanotrophic archaea was detected in carbonate BG-12. The short-chain and long-chain n-alkanes accounted for 30% and 45% of all hydrocarbons, respectively, with a CPI value of 1.2, suggesting that the n-alkanes were derived from both marine organisms and terrestrial inputs. A low thermal maturity could be revealed by the incomplete equilibrium value of the C³¹αβ 22S/(22S+22R) ratio(0.5), and the carbonate BG-12 was probably deposited in a suboxic condition indicated by a value of Pr/Ph ratio(2.5).

为了明确Melut盆地北部不同地区原油母质来源、沉积环境及亲缘关系,采用饱和烃色谱及色谱-质谱方法,开展了盆地北部不同地区原油地球化学特征分析及对比。研究表明,盆地北部各地区原油正构烷烃无明显奇偶优势,Ts/Tm值1.36～3.47、C₃₁升藿烷22S/(22S+22R)比值0.54～0.60、αααC₂₉20S/(20S+20R)与C₂₉αββ/(ααα+αββ)比值大于0.4,总体表现为成熟原油;伽马蜡烷指数普遍小于0.1,C₂₁三环萜烷具有明显优势,Pr/Ph值0.97～2.31,均值1.61,指示其烃源岩形成于弱还原-弱氧化的淡水湖相环境;生油母质为II～III型混合型。不同地区原油母质来源及成熟度有差异：Moleeta次凹东坡原油为单峰后峰态分布,高碳数正构烷烃含量占优势,C₂₄TeT/C₂₃TT平均值大于1,具有明显的陆源高等植物贡献,原油成熟度较低,发育重质—中质油;Jamous次凹深洼区原油为前峰优势的双峰态分布,C₂₄

天目山泥炭类脂物记录的微生物特征和植被演替

为进一步了解泥炭中微生物特征和植被的变化,对采自浙江天目山的样品进行了类脂生物标志物与有机碳同位素(δ13Corg)的测定。有机碳δ13Corg值整体偏负,显示C3植物占优势的特点。正构烷烃的分布特征表明,大多数样品来源于陆生高等植物和低等菌藻类生物,其中高碳数正构烷烃主要以C29为主峰,显示植被类型以木本植物为主,但草本植物的相对比例也发生了多次变化,且这种变化与有机质的相对贡献量密切相关。在深度100~68cm,不同来源的有机质,特别是低等菌藻类的相对贡献量都相对较少;在深度68~30cm,低等菌藻类生物的贡献逐渐变大;而表层泥炭的有机质主要来源于高等植被,菌藻类的输入较少。泥炭有机碳同位素与类脂生物标志物的综合特征表明,该区植被经历了几次明显变化,并据此可将研究区中全新世以来环境演化分为早(4100~3200aB.P.)、中(3200~700aB.P.)、晚(700aB.P.以来)三个环境演化阶段,其结论与前人的环境演化与全球气候变化研究具有较好的可比性。     

Heavy metal concentrations and biomarkers of oxidative stress in native mussels (Mytilus edulis chilensis) from Beagle Channel coast (Tierra del Fuego, Argentina)

The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of oxidative stress biomarkers of pollution in native mussels Mytilus edulis chilensis from the Beagle Channel. Spatial and seasonal variations of catalase, glutathione-S-transferase and lipid peroxidation in gills and digestive gland were analyzed in relation to environmental parameters, heavy metals in sediment and in tissue. Four sites with anthropogenic impact and a control site were selected and monitored during the four seasons of 2007. We found significant differences among sites in concentrations of dissolved nutrients and heavy metals in sediments, with the highest values recorded at sites with anthropogenic pressure. Different patterns were observed between concentrations of metals in tissues and in sediments suggesting differences in bioavailability. There were also significant differences in biomarker responses among sites, despite the strong seasonal variability. Our results showed relatively moderate levels of pollution in the study area as a result of urban influences.     

Effects of chronic exposure to dispersed oil on selected reproductive processes in adult blue mussels (Mytilus edulis) and the consequences for the early life stages of their larvae

Mussels (Mytilus edulis) were continuously exposed to dispersed crude oil (0.015-0.25 mg/l) for 7 months covering the whole gamete development cycle. After 1 month exposure to 0.25 mg oil/l, the level of alkali-labile phosphates (ALP) and the volume density of atretic oocytes in female gonads were higher than those in the gonads of control females, indicating that oil affected the level of vitellogenin-like proteins and gamete development. Spawning of mussels was induced after 7 months oil exposure. Parental oil exposure did not affect subsequent fertilization success in clean seawater but this was reduced in 0.25 mg oil/l. Parental exposure to 0.25 mg oil/l caused both slow development and a higher percentage of abnormalities in D-shell larvae 2 days post-fertilization; reduced growth 7 days post-fertilization. These effects were greatly enhanced when larval stages were maintained at 0.25 mg oil/l. Similar studies are warranted for risk assessment prognosis.

Lipid and 13C signatures of submicron and suspended particulate organic matter in the Eastern Tropical North Pacific: Implications for the contribution of Bacteria

The contribution of bacterial biomass to total particulate organic matter (POM) in the ocean, including exported material, is poorly constrained. To examine potential signatures for the presence and export of bacterioplankton and their detrital remains, here we provide a detailed compound-specific ¹³C characterization of fatty acids from membrane polar lipids obtained from a water column profile in the Eastern Tropical North Pacific. POM of submicron size (0.2–0.7 μm; “X-POM”) was sampled and analyzed separately from the size class typically collected as “suspended” POM (0.7–53 μm; “L-POM”). The distributions of polar head group classes, specific fatty acid side chains, and natural ¹³C contents all vary, both between particle size classes and with depth in the water column. In general, the polar lipids in submicron material – and by inference, lipids of bacterial origin – have higher ¹³C content than polar lipids from larger POM and are equally abundant. Lipid signatures from the photic zone appear to be partially conserved in the suspended pool during transit down the water column. However, bacterial heterotrophy and possibly chemoautotrophy partially overprint these surface signatures. In addition, active metabolisms in the oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) appear to mediate the disaggregation of POM transported from the surface, thus adding complexity to the pathways of mid-water carbon flux and providing additional organic substrates to the OMZ and below. This “substrate injection” may provide important fuel for the denitrification and anammox reactions. Finally, examination of ¹³C content in polar lipids provides a basis for new interpretation of depth-related variations in δ¹³C values of bulk suspended POM.
