依据地表剖面烃源岩地球化学分析资料,结合部分井下样品分析数据对新疆北部准噶尔、吐哈及伊犁盆地中二叠统碳酸盐岩类、泥岩类烃源岩的元素地球化学和有机地球化学特征进行了系统分析.研究认为烃源岩的轻稀土元素富集程度较高,重稀土元素相对较低,Ce/Ce*具有较明显的正异常,反映出烃源岩的沉积环境总体为还原环境.多项地球化学分析证实,沉积水体的元素地球化学特征及古盐度等环境条件与烃源岩有机相关系密切.研究结果表明,烃源岩的植烷优势主要是在还原条件的沉积环境下释放出大量的植烷所致,伽马腊烷、β-胡萝卜烷等生物标志化合物的检出表征诸盆地烃源岩沉积时具有一定的盐度条件.还原程度高的沉积相带是原始有机质沉积的良好场所,沉积有机质能及时沉积、保存,烃源岩大多有机质丰度高、类型好;反之,则明显变差.  相似文献   

Biomarkers of Middle to Late Jurassic marine sediments from a canonical section: New records from the Yanshiping area,northern Tibet     

《Marine and Petroleum Geology》2014

The Yanshiping section, which includes the Quemo Co, Buqu, Xiali, Suowa and Xueshan Formations (Yanshiping Group) exposes organic-rich Middle to Late Jurassic deposits in the Qiangtang Basin of northern Tibet. The biostratigraphic data, from bivalves, brachiopods as well as dinoflagellate cysts, define a Bajocian to Tithonian age. This study focuses on the biomarkers present in these mudstones and limestones to determine the sources, thermal maturity and depositional environment of the organic matter. Most samples show a clear dominance of short-chain (C₁₅–C₂₀) n-alkanes with a maximum at C₁₉ or C₁₉ with a secondary maximum at C₂₃ except for the sample BP01(22)S1 where the predominant range is C₂₂ to C₂₆ with a maximum at C₂₄, significant CPI and odd-to-even predominance. The hopanoids and steroids suggest that the sources of organic matter were dominated by phytoplankton, especially algae, as the primary source. Furthermore, the Pr/Ph, Pr/nC₁₇ and Ph/nC₁₈, with relatively low values plus high abundance of 17α(H)-hopanes, support deposition in dysoxic to reducing, relatively shallow-water depositional settings, and the presence of gammacerane indicates normal marine salinity and/or water-column stratification. All samples are fairly mature with respect to petroleum generation, a conclusion supported by maturity parameters such as C₃₁ 22S/(22S + 22R) hopanes and C₂₉ ααα20S/(20S + 20R) steranes.  相似文献   

Water Flows Toward Power: Socioecological Degradation of Lake Urmia,Iran   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Water is an invaluable resource, and equitable access to it is a fundamental human right. Disenfranchised groups often lose access to water resources because their interests are not well represented by decision makers. Excluding these groups from resource management policy often results in myopic decisions that contribute to further ecosystem damage. We describe the ecological degradation of Lake Urmia in Iran, which has recently experienced increased salinity and declining water quantity. The lake is a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and Ramsar site, and supports unique biodiversity in the region. The lake's decline is driven by the destruction of Zagros forests and the government's water policies, which diverted water to more politically connected agricultural land users, increasing social inequity and prompting more deforestation. The most straightforward restoration solution is to discontinue the diversions and allow critical inflows to recharge Lake Urmia, preserving the lake and wetlands for migratory birds, tourists, and local communities.  相似文献

为了研究安尼期罗平生物群产出地层的沉积环境,从云南罗平地区关岭组二段大凹子精测剖面采集50件样品进行了主量、稀土、微量元素分析。分析结果表明,所有灰岩样品的K、Na含量较低,Mg/Ca比值也较低,反映罗平地区在中三叠世安尼期为温暖潮湿的气候条件;Sr/Ba比值(1.22~68.96,平均值为24.35)较高,m值(=100×MgO/Al2O3)为27.22~27400,平均值达到1432,稀土元素较低的Y/Ho比值,表现出平缓或者微弱的LREE亏损,以及与近岸河口沉积物相似的稀土配分曲线特征,指示其属于近岸的碳酸盐台地内部盆地沉积。从剖面底部到顶部,Al、K、V、Ti和P等元素含量以及Co/Ti、Ni/Ti比值具有多个变化旋回,反映海平面升降变化频繁,总体发生了两次较大规模的海平面相对上升活动。所有样品的V/(V+Ni)、V/Cr、Ni/Co、U/Th等元素比值、δU、lg(Ce/Ce*)等参数值都较高,反映沉积水体为相对低能、缺氧的环境。氧化还原敏感元素V、U、Co、Ni、Zn和Cr等呈现出锯齿状曲线特征,表明水体并不完全处于缺氧环境,而是随着海平面周期性升降活动,底部水体表现为间歇性缺氧。结合地球化学及地层学资料,认为中三叠世安尼期罗平地区处于温暖潮湿、还原、低能的离岸较近台内盆地,这一时期海平面升降频繁,底部水体为间歇性缺氧环境。  相似文献

Paleoenvironmental setting and description of an estuarine oyster reef in the Eocene of Patagonia,southern Argentina     

《Journal of South American Earth Sciences》2014

A middle Eocene Crassostrea sp. reef near Río Turbio, southwestern Patagonia (Argentina), represents the earliest record of an oyster reef associated with estuarine facies in the southern hemisphere, and also one of the few known worldwide occurring in Paleogene rocks. The reef grew in an outer estuary environment subject to periodic changes in salinity and may have reached a maturing phase. The Río Turbio reef – by its dimensions, geometry, and substrate lithology– would have been located in a tidal channel convergence area. This reef provides new evidence suggesting that estuaries served as refuges for Crassostrea populations allowing them to disperse into fully marine environments many times throughout the Cenozoic.  相似文献   

Diagenesis in the Middle Jurassic Khatatba Formation sandstones in the Shoushan Basin,northern Western Desert,Egypt     

Mohamed R. Shalaby  Mohammed H. Hakimi  Wan Hasiah Abdullah 《Geological Journal》2014,49(3):239-255

The Middle Jurassic Khatatba Formation acts as a hydrocarbon reservoir in the subsurface in the Western Desert, Egypt. This study, which is based on core samples from two exploration boreholes, describes the lithological and diagenetic characteristics of the Khatatba Formation sandstones. The sandstones are fine‐ to coarse‐grained, moderately to well‐sorted quartz arenites, deposited in fluvial channels and in a shallow‐marine setting. Diagenetic components include mechanical and chemical compaction, cementation (calcite, clay minerals, quartz overgrowths, and a minor amount of pyrite), and dissolution of calcite cements and feldspar grains. The widespread occurrence of an early calcite cement suggests that the Khatatba sandstones lost a significant amount of primary porosity at an early stage of its diagenetic history. In addition to calcite, several different cements including kaolinite and syntaxial quartz overgrowth occur as pore‐filling and pore‐lining cements. Kaolinite (largely vermicular) fills pore spaces and causes reduction in the permeability of the reservoir. Based on framework grain–cement relationships, precipitation of the early calcite cement was either accompanied by or followed the development of part of the pore‐lining and pore‐filling cements. Secondary porosity development occurred due to partial to complete dissolution of early calcite cements and feldspar. Late kaolinite clay cement occurs due to dissolved feldspar and has an impact on the reservoir quality of the Khatatba sandstones. Open hydraulic fractures also generated significant secondary porosity in sandstone reservoirs, where both fractures and dissolution took place in multiple phases during late diagenetic stages. The diagenesis and sedimentary facies help control the reservoir quality of the Khatatba sandstones. Fluvial channel sandstones have the highest porosities and permeabilities, in part because of calcite cementation, which inhibited authigenic clays or was later dissolved, creating intergranular secondary porosity. Fluvial crevasse‐splay and marine sandstones have the lowest reservoir quality because of an abundance of depositional kaolinite matrix and pervasive, shallow‐burial calcite and quartz overgrowth cements, respectively.

A Middle Miocene carbonate embankment on an active volcanic slope: Ilhéu de Baixo,Madeira Archipelago,Eastern Atlantic

Carbonate factories on insular oceanic islands in active volcanic settings are poorly explored. This case study illuminates marginal limestone deposits on a steep volcanic flank and their recurring interruption by deposits linked to volcaniclastic processes. Historically known as Ilhéu da Cal (Lime Island), Ilhéu de Baixo was separated from Porto Santo, in the Madeira Archipelago, during the course of the Quaternary. Here, extensive mines were tunnelled in the Miocene carbonate strata for the production of slaked lime. Approximately 10 000 m³ of calcarenite (−1 to 1ø) was removed by hand labour from the Blandy Brothers mine at the south end of the islet. Investigations of two stratigraphic sections at opposite ends of the mine reveal that the quarried material represents an incipient carbonate ramp developed from east to west and embanked against the flank of a volcanic island. A petrographic analysis of limestones from the mine shows that coralline red algae from crushed rhodoliths account for 51% of all identifiable bioclasts. This material was transported shoreward and deposited on the ramp between normal wave base and storm wave base at moderate depths. The mine's roof rocks are formed by Surtseyan deposits from a subsequent volcanic eruption. Volcaniclastic density flows also are a prevalent factor interrupting renewed carbonate deposition. These flows arrived downslope from the north and gradually steepened the debris apron westwards. Slope instability is further shown by a coral rudstone density flow that followed from growth of a coral reef dominated by Pocillopora madreporacea (Lamarck), partial reef collapse, and transport from a more easterly direction into a fore‐reef setting. The uppermost facies represents a soft bottom at moderate depths in a quiet, but shore‐proximal setting. Application of this study to a broader understanding of the relationship between carbonate and volcaniclastic deposition on oceanic islands emphasizes the susceptibility of carbonates to dilution and complete removal by density flows of various kinds, in contrast to the potential for preservation beneath less‐disruptive Surtseyan deposits.
