Identification and construction of the gas chromatography analysis and recorded components in gas chromatogram. Molecular structure and nomenclature of the components recorded in the gas chromatograms. The interpretation of the organic matter type, organic maturity, biological degradation, depositional environment and clinmate by using n-alkane and isoprenoid distribution in the gas chromatorams. The determination of n-alkane charactersitics for the different depositional environments (marine, lacustrine and terrestrial) by using statistical methods. |
