Based on organic petrology and biomarker analyses, this study investigated the depositional environment, OM sources, and enrichment mechanism of Jiufotang mudstone in the Kazuo Basin. Maceral composition shows that the OM source of Jiufotang mudstone shifted from mainly aquatic to terrigenous, and biomarkers such as abundant diterpenoids and retene indicate that terrigenous higher plants were mainly conifers during deposition of the Jiufotang Formation. Pr/Ph ratios (0.07–0.65) show that the studied section was deposited in anoxic bottom water that may be necessary for OM enrichment in lake systems. Gravity flows were accompanied by input of many clastic minerals and oxygenation of bottom waters, which is unfavorable for OM enrichment. Therefore, the best OM enrichment model for lake systems includes anoxic bottom water, stable water column stratification, low sedimentation rates, and high phytoplankton contributions. The climate changed from relatively dry to humid, which drove changes in the OM enrichment model in the lake. More importantly, the climate and terrigenous plant information obtained by biomarkers is useful to reconstruct the ecological environment of the Jehol Biota.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":400,"journal":{"name":"Organic Geochemistry","volume":"192 ","pages":"Article 104781"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140632761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consequently, differentiating mangrove and freshwater sediment in the stratigraphic record is often subjective. We explore if biomarkers can objectively identify mangrove sediment with emphasis on their utility for reconstructing relative sea level. Our approach is specific to identifying in situ sediment, which has received less attention than identifying allochthonous mangrove organic matter. To characterize mangrove and non-mangrove (freshwater) environments, we measured <em>n</em>-alkane, sterol, and triterpenoid abundances in surface sediments at three sites in the Federated States of Micronesia. Elevated taraxerol abundance is diagnostic of sediment accumulating in mangroves and taraxerol is particularly abundant beneath monospecific stands of <em>Rhizophora</em> spp. Taraxerol was undetectable in freshwater sediment. Other triterpenoids are more abundant in mangrove sediment than in freshwater sediment. Using cores from Micronesian mangroves, we examine if biomarkers in sediments are indicative of in situ deposition in a mangrove, and have utility as a relative sea-level proxy. Taraxerol concentrations in cores are comparable to surface mangrove sediments, which indicates deposition in a mangrove. This interpretation is supported by pollen assemblages. Downcore taraxerol variability may reflect changing inputs from <em>Rhizophora</em> spp. rather than diagenesis.

To assess the potential impact of free BPCAs on DBC quantification, we spiked ultrapure water, salt water, and organic matter solutions with BPCA standards and treated them as environmental samples being analyzed for DBC.

Coal seams are popular targets for extracting in situ preserved methane and studying microbe-stimulated methane yield. However, few studies have been done on overmature coals. Here we collected gas samples from coals varying from bituminous to meta-anthracite in the Qinshui Basin, North China, and analysed the molecular and stable isotopic compositions to systematically evaluate the influence of biodegradation in high-rank coals in geological settings. The stable isotope signatures (δ<sup>13</sup>C and δD) of methane are dominated by the thermal decomposition of organic matter in deep coals but inconsistent with the maturity rank of shallow burial coals. The decoupling of coal maturity with C<sub>1</sub>/C<sub>2+</sub> ratios and δ<sup>13</sup>C-CH<sub>4</sub> values, and positive δ<sup>13</sup>C-CO<sub>2</sub> values (−9.2 to +24.4 ‰) suggest biodegradation of light wet gases (C<sub>2+</sub> components) and CO<sub>2</sub> reduction. Negative trends between δ<sup>13</sup>C-CO<sub>2</sub> and CH<sub>4</sub>/CO<sub>2</sub> in shallow burial coal seams reveal the mutual conversion of CH<sub>4</sub> and CO<sub>2</sub> and carbon isotope exchange, driven by microorganisms. The calculated isotopic temperatures (33–328 °C) based on the carbon isotope fractionation factors between CH<sub>4</sub> and CO<sub>2</sub> (1.024–1.069) demonstrate that carbon isotope exchange is prevalent in high-rank coals. It also reveals that the burial depth is an imperative factor in controlling microbial environments and thus the biodegradation process. This study implicates the potential of high-rank coals as the target for microbial-enhanced methane recovery and also implies that microorganisms are widely involved in reservoir carbon cycling.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":400,"journal":{"name":"Organic Geochemistry","volume":"190 ","pages":"Article 104755"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139941791","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
