用生物标志物定量计算混合原油油源的数学模型   总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9  
多烃源层叠合盆地混源油油源的定量计算是十分困难的问题.典型原油的人工混合配比实验显示,当两个生物标志物浓度不同的原油相混合时,各类生物标志物的比值参数随端元原油混入量呈非线性变化,以生物标志物比值参数和简单的二元线性关系方程定量计算混源油的混合比例将导致错误的结论.三个或者三个以上原油相混合时,各类生物标志物比值参数的变化更加复杂,各端元原油的贡献更加难以判识.但是,人工混合模拟实验表明混合油中生物标志物绝对含量与端元油的混入量呈线性关系,数学推导证明了这种线性关系,由此推导出相应的数学计算模型,其中:二元混合时比值参数与混入量呈双曲线关系,三元混合呈双曲面关系,四元及其以上的多元混合呈多维曲面,可以矩阵的方式定量计算各端元油的比例.依据这些数学模型,应用生物标志物的绝对含量和(或)生物标志物比值参数均可以定量计算出混源原油中各类原油的贡献比例.数学模型比通常的人工模拟实验方法更加经济、方便、精确和可靠.  相似文献

通过多参数生物标志物法对取自中国第二次北极考察的R12a岩心顶部40 cm样品进行了浮游植物和种群结构变化的研究,获得了500 a以来浮游植物初级生产力和种群结构变化信息。结果表明:R12a岩心在过去的500多年来,所记录的海洋初级生产力呈上升趋势,单一藻类的生产力总体上也呈现上升趋势。浮游植物种群结构主要表现为颗石藻相对含量下降,硅藻相对含量上升,甲藻没有明显的波动,这可能与北太平洋水输入决定的楚科奇海营养盐结构及夏季海冰覆盖变化有关。  相似文献

冰期—间冰期引起的海平面变化会导致黄海的沉积环境和生态系统发生巨大变化。通过多参数生物标志物法对取自南黄海北部71.2m长的DLC70-3岩心进行研究,获得晚更新世以来的浮游植物生产力和种群结构变化信息,并探讨影响其变化的可能因素。结果表明,晚更新世以来,DLC70-3岩心的浮游植物初级生产力和单一藻类生产力总体上呈现一致的变化趋势,在MIS 5e和MIS 3c时期最高,而在其他层位较低。浮游植物种群结构的变化主要表现为颗石藻在MIS 5e和MIS 3c相对含量增加,硅藻和甲藻相对含量下降,而颗石藻在其他层位含量为0。这都归因于高海平面时黄海暖流的入侵导致黄海盐度发生了较大的变化。  相似文献

边缘海浮游生态系统对生物泵的调控作用   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
海洋生物泵及其与碳循环关键生物地球化学研究是当今全球变化研究的前沿课题。边缘海是全球海洋的重要组分,在生态系统的物质循环、能量流动和气候调节中起着十分重要的调控作用,同时也是海洋生态系统和生物地球化学过程相互作用研究的热点和难点区域。针对"边缘海浮游生物群落结构如何调控生物泵效率"这一科学命题,归纳分析了浮游生态系统主要生物组分及其在碳循环和生物泵(颗粒有机碳输出)过程中的作用,总结了当前国内外相关研究进展和存在的问题。目前大多数的研究思路是将整个浮游生态系统看成黑箱模式,关注该生态系统某些方面的动态与生物泵效率的关系。最新研究表明,浮游生态系统对生物泵的调控并不是简单的线性关系,该系统内不同营养级间的碳流与颗粒有机碳输出的相关过程非常复杂。简单地利用浮游生物不同类群(含营养级)生物量和生产力等指标来阐明浮游生态系统结构和生物泵效率的耦合机制非常困难。针对当今存在的问题,提出从整个浮游生态系统入手,在研究生态系统群落组成和生物量(即各类群颗粒有机碳储库)的基础上,更加关注有机碳在不同营养级之间的转换过程及其速率,期望阐明影响生物泵效率的关键生物地球化学过程和机制,同时构建不同浮游生态系统的碳流传递过程和颗粒有机碳的输出模式,从而最终揭示浮游生物群落结构调控生物泵效率的问题。  相似文献

海洋中的溶解氧是生物地球化学循环的重要参数。在全球变暖的背景下,海洋缺氧是当前面临的环境问题之一,定量重建海水氧气含量在预测未来气候和生态环境变化中尤为重要。以往常用的代用指标大多只能定性或半定量地重建海洋深水氧气含量,而近年来新发展的底栖有孔虫表生种Cibicidoides wuellerstorfi和内生种Globobulimina spp.的碳同位素梯度(Δδ13C)被认为可以在20~235μmol/kg范围内定量重建海洋深水氧气含量。目前,底栖有孔虫Δδ13C重建深水氧气含量的研究多集中于边缘海,对开阔大洋的关注不足。本文通过对比不同海洋深水氧气含量代用指标的异同,厘清底栖有孔虫Δδ13C重建海洋深水氧气含量的原理及影响因素,归纳底栖有孔虫Δδ13C在全球范围内的应用,这对约束地球系统模型的结果具有重要意义。  相似文献

海洋和湖泊具有重要的气候环境和生态调节功能。研究地质历史时期海洋和湖泊生态系统的生物群落的组成、结构和演变,将为解决当前面临的环境问题,评估可持续发展提供科学依据。生物标志物具有生物专属性,提供了使我们能够从分子水平上研究地质历史中各种生物演变的工具。本文初步总结了海洋和湖泊生态系统中的生物标志物(烷烃、酸类、醇类、酮类、酯类、甾类、藿类、萜类和甘油四醚类等)的特征和来源。陆生高等植物来源的生物标志物,以长链的烷烃、脂肪酸、脂肪醇和木质素、萜类等较为常见;水生微藻来源的生物标志物有长链烯酮、烷基二醇和高度支链类异戊二烯类化合物(HBIs)等;微生物来源的生物标志物有细菌藿烷多元醇(BHPs)、异形胞糖脂和支链烷烃类等。今后结合生物标志物单体同位素分析和基因、蛋白质组学等现代分子生物学研究,加强不同生物标志物对应的生物种属的生态学研究,古今生态研究相结合,可以为某些生物标志物的分子来源研究提供新的可行途径。本文还综述了生物标志物指标在重建海洋和湖泊生态系统的组成、结构、生产力和营养状况方面的应用。未来的研究将偏向于从定性向定量化重建转变,在海洋研究中应用较成熟的指标将越来越多的被用于湖泊环境中。此外,多指标结合使用将提高重建古生态系统的可靠度。  相似文献

Glacial-interglacial sea level changes have caused drastic variations in the surface hydrography, ventilation and ecosystem structure in the Japan Sea. Previous reconstructions using microfossils and geochemical proxies suggested decreased productivity and a more calcareous plankton community during glacial periods. However, the inferred community structure change is not consistent with significantly lower salinity in the Japan Sea during the glacials, which would have had a deleterious effect on calcareous plankton growth. Here, biomarker records of ODP Site 797 are generated to further evaluate phytoplankton productivity and community structure changes in the Japan Sea over the last 166 kyr. Although the contents of the phytoplankton biomarkers changed by two to three orders of magnitude, there were no clear glacial-interglacial patterns as sediment biomarker contents reflected the combined effect of production and water column degradation. The collective assessments of our biomarker records and published records support previous conclusions of decreased productivity in the Japan Sea during the glacials. However, a community structure proxy based on the alkenone/brassicasterol ratio reveals a shift from a diatom-dominated community during the glacials to a coccolithophorid-dominated community during the interglacials, mainly as a result of surface salinity variations in the Japan Sea controlled by sea-level changes. Previous community structure reconstruction using biogenic carbonate/silica ratio could have been complicated by the different environmental factors governing silica and CaCO3 dissolution in the Japan Sea.  相似文献

This paper reports on the spatial distribution patterns and investigates the controlling mechanisms of phytoplankton biomarkers (brassicasterol for diatoms, alkenones for haptophytes, dinosterol for dinoflagellates) and terrestrial biomarkers (odd C number long-chain (C27 + C29 + C31) n-alkanes) in surface sediments from the southern Yellow Sea (SYS). The contents of the phytoplankton biomarkers in the SYS surface sediments reveals a clear spatial pattern, with low values near the coasts and increased values seaward, caused by higher phytoplankton primary productivity and low sedimentation rates in the basin. The contents of terrestrial biomarkers show high values in the northern part of the study areas off the Shandong Peninsula and Jiangsu coast, caused by inputs of materials from the modern Huanghe River and the old Huanghe delta, respectively. The results also indicate that biomarker ratios offer the best approach for reconstructing marginal sea C cycles, as these proxies can be used to estimate the contributions of both terrestrial and marine organic matter and to reconstruct paleoproductivity and paleoecological changes in the SYS.  相似文献

Sedimentary biomarker distributions can record ocean productivity and community structure, but their interpretation must consider alteration during organic matter (OM) export and burial. Large changes in the water column redox state are known to impact on the preservation of biomarkers, but more subtle variation in sediment redox conditions, characteristic of major modern ocean basins, have been less thoroughly investigated. Here we evaluate changes in biomarker distributions during sinking and burial across a nearshore to offshore transect in the southwestern Cape Basin (South East Atlantic), which includes a range of sedimentary environments. Biomarker concentrations and distributions in suspended particulate matter from the upper water column were determined and compared with underlying sedimentary biomarker accumulation rates and distributions. Biomarker distributions were similar in surface and subsurface waters, indicating that the OM signature is exported from the ocean mixed layer with minimal alteration. We show that, while export production (100 m) is similar along this transect, 230Thxs-corrected biomarker accumulation rate varies by over an order of magnitude in sediments and is directly associated with sedimentary redox conditions, ranging from oxic to nitrogenous–ferruginous. Biomarker distributions were dominated by sterols in surface water, and by alkenones in underlying sediments, which we propose to be primarily the result of selective preservation. Notably, the difference in sediment O2 penetration depth was associated with relative biomarker preservation. Subtle variation in sedimentary redox conditions has a dramatic impact on the distribution of preserved biomarkers. We discuss mechanisms for preferential degradation of specific biomarkers within this setting.  相似文献

The sedimentary environment and ecological system in the South Yellow Sea (SYS) changed dramatically due to sea level change caused by glacial-interglacial cycles. The authors report the use of marine biomarkers (brassicasterol, dinosterol and C37 alkenones) and terrigenous biomarkers (C28+C30+C32 n-alkanols) in core DLC70-3 from the SYS to reconstruct the variation in the phytoplankton productivity and community structure and possible mechanisms during the middle Pleistocene. The results show that the primary productivity and that of single algae presented a consistent trend for the whole core during the middle Pleistocene, which was high during interglacial periods and low during glacial periods, with the highest being in marine isotope stage (MIS) 5–9 and MIS 19–21. The main reason is that the Yellow Sea Warm Current (YSWC) carried much of high temperature, high salinity water into the SYS, causing upwelling and vertical mixing and stirring, which increased the nutrient supply in the photosynthetic layer. The phytoplankton community structure mainly showed an increase in the relative content of haptophytes in MIS 5–9 and MIS 19–21, while the relative content of diatoms and dinoflagellates decreased; there was no evidence for a haptophyte content in other stages. The results reveal a shift from a coccolitho-phorid-dominated community during MIS 5 –9 and MIS 19 –21 to a diatom-dominated community during the other stages, mainly as a result of surface salinity variation, attributed to the invasion of the YSWC during high sea level periods.  相似文献

The endorheic Lake Van in eastern Anatolia (Turkey) is the world’s largest soda lake and it is an important site in paleoclimate studies to understand past continental conditions in western Asia. In order to gain further insights into the biomarker signatures in Lake Van’s sediments we have analyzed particulate material in sediment traps deployed between August 2006 and July 2007. The biomarkers used were long chain alkenones (LCAs C37-C39, haptophyte lipids), isoprenoid glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (GDGTs, Archaea membrane lipids) and pigments (chlorins and fucoxanthin). The biomarker fluxes indicate a strong seasonality in export primary productivity and the phytoplankton community structure. The highest total mass and organic carbon fluxes were found in summer, coupled to strong stratification while the lowest mass fluxes occurred in winter at the time of water column mixing. With increasing temperatures in early spring, phytoplankton export productivity grew, coupled with an increase of total mass flux and organic carbon, which might be associated to enhanced nutrient input from snowmelt runoff. The percentage of C37:4 shows some correspondence with observed seasonal changes in Lake Van’s stratification structure. We also evaluated the potential applicability of molecular temperature proxies derived from Archaea and haptophyte lipids. The use of the TEX86 proxy was precluded by low GDGT abundances. Estimated LCA temperatures were consistent with temperatures in the photic zone but no seasonality changes were observed despite the wide annual temperature range measured at Lake Van.  相似文献

It is difficult to identify the source(s) of mixed oils from multiple source rocks, and in particular the relative contribution of each source rock. Artificial mixing experiments using typical crude oils and ratios of different biomarkers show that the relative contribution changes are non-linear when two oils with different concentrations of biomarkers mix with each other. This may result in an incorrect conclusion if ratios of biomarkers and a simple binary linear equation are used to calculate the contribution proportion of each end-member to the mixed oil. The changes of biomarker ratios with the mixing proportion of end-member oils in the trinal mixing model are more complex than in the binary mixing model. When four or more oils mix, the contribution proportion of each end-member oil to the mixed oil cannot be calculated using biomarker ratios and a simple formula. Artificial mixing experiments on typical oils reveal that the absolute concentrations of biomarkers in the mixed oil cause a linear change with mixing proportion of each end-member. Mathematical inferences verify such linear changes. Some of the mathematical calculation methods using the absolute concentrations or ratios of biomarkers to quantitatively determine the proportion of each end-member in the mixed oils are deduced from the results of artificial experiments and by theoretical inference. Ratio of two biomarker compounds changes as a hyperbola with the mixing proportion in the binary mixing model, as a hyperboloid in the trinal mixing model, and as a hypersurface when mixing more than three end- members. The mixing proportion of each end-member can be quantitatively determined with these mathematical models, using the absolute concentrations and the ratios of biomarkers. The mathematical calculation model is more economical, convenient, accurate and reliable than conventional artificial mixing methods.  相似文献

Differences in phytoplankton community composition along a riverine to, freshwater tidal continuum was an important factor affecting the primary productivity and quantity of phytoplankton biomass available to the San Francisco Estuary food web downstream. The relative contribution of riverine and freshwater tidal phytoplankton was determined using measurements of primary productivity, respiration, and phytoplankton species composition along a riverine to freshwater tidal gradient in the San Joaquin River, one of two major rivers that flow into, the San Francisco Estuary. Chla-specific net primary productivity was greater in the freshwater tidal habitat and was correlated with both a higher growth efficiency and maximum growth potential compared with the river upstream. Cluster analysis indicated these differences in growth parameters were associated with differences in species composition, with greater percent diatom and green algal species biomass upstream and flagellate biomass downstream. Correlation between the chla specific net productivity and phytoplankton species composition suggested the downstream shift from riverine diatom and green algal species to flagellate species contributed to the seaward increase in net primary productivity. Environmental conditions, such as specific conductance and water transparency, may have influenced primary productivity along the riverine to freshwater tidal continuum through their effect on both species composition and growth rate. Data suggest light was not the sole controlling factor for primary productivity in this highly turbid estuary; phytoplankton growth rate did not increase when riverine plankton communities from low light conditions upstream were exposed to higher light conditions downstream. This study suggests that the availability of phytoplankton biomass to the estuarine food web may be influenced by management of both phytoplankton growth and community composition along the riverine to freshwater tidal continuum.  相似文献
