The South China Sea(SCS) is one of the most productive and accumulative marginal shelves of organic carbon in the world. To expound the transformation and preservation of organic carbon in the Northeast SCS, where abundant oil and gas resources have been reported, compound specific sterols in free(FR), base hydrolytic(BH), and acid hydrolytic(AH) forms were analyzed in surface and columnar sediments in May, 2016. The results showed that the total contents of sterols detected ranged from 0.15 to 3.74 ppm dry weight in the surface sediments, and gradually decreased from 3.41 to0.17 ppm dry weight from surface to deep sediments, in which cholesterol(27~(△5)) was the most abundant component. Sterols mainly existed in the BH form(54.51%-74.20%), followed by the FR form(25.50%-45.49%) and then the AH form(0-3.77%) in turn, in the surface sediments. BH and FR sterols accounted for 0-49.08% and 50.92%-100% in the columnar sediments, while AH sterols were undetectable. The contents of specific sterols indicated that, the primary source of marine organic carbon was about 5 times as much as that from terrestrial input. More and more FR sterols transformed into BH sterols with increasing sedimentary depth, and BH sterols absolutely dominated in sediment depths under 25 cm. The forms of Sterols C27 were maintained at a relative consistence state, but Sterols C28 to C30 degraded gradually during the sedimentation process. It was suggested that the stability of sterols, based on the chemical structures, might be the primary factor controlling their degradation and preservation in deeper sediments. These results would help to understand the organic carbon(OC) transformation in a hydrate formation area in a marginal sea. 相似文献

A saline circuit has been studied as a model of coastal evaporite system. The lipid composition of diverse salt ponds encompassing calcite, gypsum and halite domains has been determined. Most of the lipid materials has been found in the carbonate samples and is related to algal/cyanobacterial debris. Lipids in the gypsum domain are of heterotropic microbialorigin and extreme halophilic bacteria constitute the main lipid contribution in the halite samples. n-Alkane distributions with high predominance of n-docosane constitute a previously described feature of sedimentary evaporitic conditions that is charateristics of the intermediate calcite/gypsum samples. In the calcite domain, the presence of C20 highly branched isoprenid olephines, tetrahymanol and the large amounts of phytol constitute likely precursors of lipids usually found in evaporitic environments (i.e. C20 highly branched isoprenoid alkanes, gammacerane and high phytane/pristane ratios). Their occurence point to dehydration and hydrogenations as two main diagenetic processes leading to the formation of “evaporitic molecular markers”. 相似文献

Suspended particulate materials and bottom sediments from the Cariaco Trench were analysed for lipid content to investigate the diagenesis of organic matter in an anoxic water column and sediment. Distributions of fatty acids, sterols, and the acyclic isoprenoid hydrocarbons, lycopane and 2,6,10,15,19-pentamethyleicosane, support the hypothesis that alteration of organic matter usually attributed to sedimentary diagenesis occurs in the water column. Typical indicators of diagenetic processes, including preferential loss of unsaturated fatty acids, increased abundances of branched fatty acids, stenol-to-stanol conversion, and abundant acyclic isoprenoids, were observed in the water column across the oxic/anoxic interface in the Cariaco Trench. Lipid distributions in the sediment were remarkably uniform with depth. We conclude that organic material delivered to the sediment has been extensively altered in the water column, but that which is buried is preserved without much additional alteration. 相似文献

The distributions of free 4-desmethyl sterols in sediments from the Peru coastal zone at 15°S have been determined. Major free sterols in the surface sediments include cholesterol, which is mainly derived from zooplankton, and two C28 sterols: 24-methylcholesta-5,24(28)-dien-3β-ol and 24-methylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3β-ol both of which are derived fro diatoms. Their concentrations decrease by almost an order of magnitude in the top 20 cm of sediment depth, indicating that free sterols are rapidly degraded in this sedimentary environment. Lipids from higher plants were also detected: long chain fatty acids and alcohols and various triterpenoid alcohols, including taraxerol, lupeol and α- and β-amyrin. The concentrations of most terrigenous lipids varied by less than a factor of 3 over the same depth, and these changes were not correlated with changes in the concentrations of total organic carbon. Below 3 cm, lipids from higher plants predominated in the extractable lipid distributions due to the more rapid degradation of marine lipids. We postulate that there are significant marine sources of the higher plant sterols 24-ethylcholesterol, 24-ethylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3β-ol and 24-methylcholesterol in these sediments. A high proportion of many of the terrigenous lipids in these sediments are probably transported into the coastal zone by rivers, rather than from the atmosphere, and then redistributed by bottom currents. 相似文献

Early diagenesis of organic matter in sediments from two sites in the Peruvian Upwelling Zone (12°05′S, 77°39′W; 15°17′S, 75°24′W) has been studied by observing changes in the total organic carbon and lipid and humin fractions with depth. Transformations of the total carbon and humin fraction have been characterized by conventional and time-dependent solid state NMR techniques, while lipid diagenesis was monitored by measuring the concentration of sterols in the same sedimentary horizons. Both the quantity of total sterols and the relative abundances of individual sterols vary with sampling location, suggesting a difference in the input of biomass to the sediments at the two sites. Total sterol concentrations decrease with depth at both sites, but the loss of sterols occurs much more slowly at the more anoxic northern site, where sedimentation rates and organic carbon contents are approximately twice those at the southern site. 13C-NMR spectra of the total organic carbon and the humin fraction suggest that humin-like compounds are an original component of the sedimentary biomass, and dipolar-dephased spectra of the humin residue indicate that diagenetic alterations of the humin fraction are occurring even in these very young sediments. Conventional and time-dependent spectroscopic data support the hypothesis that humin formation results from selective preservation of microbially-resistant biopolymers which are an original component of the sedimentary biomass combined with loss of certain labile compounds. 相似文献

Lake Kinneret, a relict lake from the Neogene, is characterised by the dominance among its phytoplankton of the dinoflagellate Peridinium cinctum. The lipid geochemistry of Lake Kinneret is discussed herein in terms of the biology, chemistry and hydrology of the lake. Lipids isolated from two sediment sections (surface and 15 cm deep), obtained from the deepest point of Lake Kinneret, include: (1) 4α-methyl-5α (H)-stanols and related derivatives characteristic of P. cinctum, the novel sterol 4a-methylgorgosterol, and peridinosterol and 4α-methylgorgostanol, not previously reported to occur in lacustrine sediments; (2) C30 and C32 alkane-1,15-diols, not previously reported to occur in contemporary lacustrine deposits, and (3) products of early diagenesis. Many similarities were observed with the more widely studied marine dinoflagellates and marine sediments with dinoflagellate input. 相似文献

Compositional data on the sterol and alcohol fractions isolated from deep-sea marine sediments from the Okinawa Trough were
obtained to determine the relative contribution from marine and terrestrial inputs. Following extraction, the sterol plus
alcohol fraction was isolated by layer chromatography, derivatized with BSTFA and then analysed by capillary GC and GC—MS.
A suite of C26−C29 stenols and stanols and C30−C32 keto—alcohols were identified in the sediments. The thermal stability of the compounds in these sediments was studied by
heating portions of the surface sediment in glass tubes for 16 hours at temperatures from 50°C to 200°C. The C27 stanol/stenol ratio increased when temperatures went up to 175°C, but the distribution of C30−C32 Keto—alcohols remained unaffected. At 200°C most of the sterols and Keto—alcohols were destroyed.

Particulate matter and interfacial sediment from a seasonally anoxic coastal salt pond were analyzed for fatty acids and sterols to examine variations in organic sources, and compositional changes across the oxic-anoxic interface in the water column and at the sediment-water interface. Fatty acid distributions in suspended particles varied seasonally and as a function of depth. Fatty acids of algal origin (e.g. 16:3, 16:4, 18:3, 18:4) were abundant in particles in oxic surface waters, but these labile components were depleted in particles from the anoxic zone which instead were enriched in bacterial fatty acids (e.g. 16:1Δ9, 18:1Δ11, anteiso-C15). Sterol distributionsvaried less than fatty acid distributions and particles throughout the water column reflected an upper water algal source with little in situ alteration. There was evidence for an in situ conversion of Δ5-stenols to 5(α)H-stanols in suspended particles in the anoxic zone. Sinking particles and the interfacial sediment were compositionally similar to each other, but different from suspended particles. These data reflect differences in particle source, transport and transformation processes occuring in the water column. 相似文献

Sediment samples have been collected during the Donghai 1 cruise in January 1986 in the Chang Jiang estuarine region for which solvent extractable sterols have been analysed by GC and GC/MS and the data examined using Correspondence Factorial Analysis (CFA). The main autochthonous sterols in these sediments were cholesterol, 24-methylcholesta-5,22-dien-3β-ol and 24-methylcholesta-5,24(28)-dien-3β-ol, whereas 24-ethylcholesterol, 24-ethylcholesta-5,22-dien-3β-ol and 24-methylcholesterol were principally allochthonous. Autochthonous sterols prevailed in regions of high primary production observed in summer, and allochthonous ones dominated the sterol distribution in the accumulation region of fine sediments just outside the river mouth and in the reaches of coastal currents. The cholesterol/cholesterol ratio values exhibited higher values close to the river mouth and in the region where the turbidity maximum extends. A comparison between sediment and suspended matter indicated a great difference in the sterol content in regions of high autochthonous production which suggested that sterols have been transformed in the course of sedimentation and at the sediment/water interface. In contrast, sedimentary and suspended sterol concentrations were comparable close to the mouth of the Chang Jiang River and in the region where the turbidity maximum extends, a feature that may be attributable to sediment resuspension episodes and lower production of autochthonous sterols. These results demonstrate the distinct impact of biogeochemical processes on the sediment sterol features in different zones of the estuary. 相似文献
