TL;DR: In this paper, a set of crude oils, which differ mainly in their level of maturity, were compared with mixtures obtained after heating methylated naphthalenes with clay, leading to the proposal of three new parameters, one for each class of naphthenes.
276 citations
TL;DR: In this article, a method for the separation and analysis of saturate, aromatic and polar components from petroleum is described using silica gel liquid chromatography and GC-MS techniques.
148 citations
TL;DR: In this paper, a crude oil and several shales which contain anomalously high concentrations of phenanthrene, 1-methylphenanthrene and 1-7-dimethylphenathrene, and retene have been shown to contain relatively high proportions of their corresponding 9-methyl counterparts.
113 citations
TL;DR: Key challenges to the understanding are described, inclusive of the dominance of methanogenic or aerobic biodegradation processes, the potentially changeability of rates due to the weathering profile of LNAPL products and ages, and linkages to underlying bioprocesses.
66 citations
TL;DR: In this article, 2-methylretene was observed only in samples of Permian to Tertiary age and can be associated with specific higher plant precursors that also yield retene.

TL;DR: In this paper, parent and alkyl PAHs were quantified in suspended particulates and sediments (345 samples) from the Fraser River system, British Columbia, Canada, and the best potential to distinguish natural and anthropogenic sources is exhibited by ratios of the principal mass 178, 202, 228 and 276 parent PAH, 1,7/2,6+1,7-DMP (dimethylphenanthrene), the phenanthrene/anthracene and fluoranthene/pyrene alkyal PAH series and several less commonly applied PA

TL;DR: The second edition of The Biomarker Guide as mentioned in this paper provides a comprehensive account of the role that biomarker technology plays both in petroleum exploration and in understanding Earth history and processes.
Abstract: The second edition of The Biomarker Guide is a fully updated and expanded version of this essential reference. Now in two volumes, it provides a comprehensive account of the role that biomarker technology plays both in petroleum exploration and in understanding Earth history and processes. Biomarkers and Isotopes in the Environment and Human History details the origins of biomarkers and introduces basic chemical principles relevant to their study. It discusses analytical techniques, and applications of biomarkers to environmental and archaeological problems. The Biomarker Guide is an invaluable resource for geologists, petroleum geochemists, biogeochemists, environmental scientists and archaeologists.

TL;DR: The objectives of BIOS 781 are to present basic population and quantitative genetic principles, including classical genetics, chromosomal theory of inheritance, and meiotic recombination, and methods for genome-wide association and stratification control.
Abstract: LEARNING The objectives of BIOS 781 are to present: OBJECTIVES: 1. basic population and quantitative genetic principles, including classical genetics, chromosomal theory of inheritance, and meiotic recombination 2. an exposure to QTL mapping methods of complex quantitative traits and linkage methods to detect co-segregation with disease 3. methods for assessing marker-disease linkage disequilibrium, including case-control approaches 4. methods for genome-wide association and stratification control.

TL;DR: In this article, a review of biogeochemical processes at ancient methane-seeps is presented, focusing on carbonate fabrics and phases, including inverted stromatactoid cavities, globular fabrics, botryoidal aragonite, micritic nodules, fractures, clotted micrites, and constructive seams representing fossilised biofilms.
