Terrigenous dissolved organic matter along an estuarine gradient and its flux to the coastal ocean

The contribution of terrigenous organic matter (TOM) to high molecular weight dissolved and particulate organic matter (POM) was examined along the salinity gradient of the Delaware Estuary. Dissolved organic matter (DOM) was fractionated by ultrafiltration into 1–30 kDa (HDOM) and 30 kDa–0.2 μm (VHDOM) nominal molecular weight fractions. Thermochemolysis with tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) was used to release and quantify lipids and lignin phenols. Stable carbon isotopes, fatty acids and lignin content indicated shifts in sources with terrigenous material in the river and turbid region and a predominantly algal/planktonic signal in the lower estuary and coastal ocean. Thermochemolysis with TMAH released significant amounts of short chain fatty acids (C₉–C₁₃), not seen by traditional alkaline hydrolysis, which appear to be associated with the macromolecular matrix. Lignin phenol distributions in HDOM, VHDOM and particles followed predicted sources with higher concentrations in the river and turbid region of the estuary and lower concentrations in the coastal ocean. TOM comprised 12% of HDOM within the coastal ocean and up to 73% of HDOM within the turbid region of the estuary. In the coastal ocean, TOM from high molecular weight DOM comprised 4% of total DOC. The annual flux of TOM from the Delaware Estuary to the coastal ocean was estimated at 2.0×10¹⁰ g OC year⁻¹ and suggests that temperate estuaries such as Delaware Bay can be significant sources of TOM on a regional scale.     

Acidic polar compounds in petroleum: a new analytical methodology and applications as molecular migration indices

A new method for analysis of acidic polar compounds, is described and discussed. It allows the simultaneous quantification of carboxylic acids, phenols and carbazoles and combines accuracy with a short turnaround time, a requirement strictly necessary for industrial applications. Routinely use of this methodology (more than 50 applications in many different sedimentary basins) has supplied many important pieces of information about oil origin, maturity, biodegradation and, in particular, has allowed to define a molecular migration index (MMI), based on relative abundance of phenol and alkyl phenols. The combination of well-established geochemical tools focused on saturated and aromatic fractions (such as biomarkers, compound specific isotope ratio analysis, and GC fingerprinting) with this methodology results in the definition of an integrated interpretative sequence. This last enhances the quality of interpretations through cross-checks and permits a better exploitation of oil samples by using also their less explored fraction, i.e. the polar compounds. Application results of this methodology are only shortly mentioned in this paper, which is mainly focused on analytical aspects. The results will be more extensively discussed in a future publication.     

单个体浮游动物脂肪酸的气相色谱分析

为使浮游动物脂肪酸测定充分实现规范化及微量化,便于浮海动物自然生态及实验生态的研究,借助于毛细管气相色谱微量测定技术建立了浮游动物单个体或多个体样品测定的流程及技术,并实际测定了采自厦门附近海域的实际浮游动物样品中脂肪酸的含量。虽然这些数据来自几个甚至一个浮游动物样品,单个数据仍然显示充分的合理性及可靠性。这些数据显示出浮游动物不同种之间、游浮动物与浮流植物之间都有着明显的不同;同时,某些种之间或者某些样品之间又存在着各种的联系。这样,脂肪酸组成在化学分类学上的作用也得到了明显的体现。     

Study on the isotherms of the interaction between suspended particles and Cu (II) in the Huanghe River

The isotherms of the interaction between the suspended particles and Cu²⁺, and the effects of lysine and asparaginic acid on the isotherms in the Huanghe (Yellow) River were studied by applying the theory and method of interfacial stepwise ion/coordination particle exchange. We obtained a new stepped river isotherm, formed by two curves joined together with a “plateau” in the middle. The adsorption equilibrium constantsK ₁ andK ₂ were calculated by using the isothermal equation of surface stepwise ion exchange. Amino acid in small amount promotes exchange adsorption of the suspended particles with Cu²⁺. The degree of promotive action relates to the isoelectric point of amino acid. The promotive effect of lysine is bigger than that of asparaginic acid. Project 29361001 supported by NSFC.
