Palaeoenvironment and Its Control on the Formation of Miocene Marine Source Rocks in the Qiongdongnan Basin, Northern South China Sea [PDF]
The main factors of the developmental environment of marine source rocks in continental margin basins have their specificality. This realization, in return, has led to the recognition that the developmental environment and pattern of marine source rocks,

Geochemical characteristics and provenance of the detrital sediments in the junction area of Yinggehai and Qiongdongnan basins, South China Sea [PDF]
Together, the Yinggehai and Qiongdongnan basins have received a large amount of terrigenous sediments, but the provenance evolution of Cenozoic sediments in the two basins remains disputable.

The majority of microorganisms in gas hydrate-bearing subseafloor sediments ferment macromolecules. [PDF]
BackgroundGas hydrate-bearing subseafloor sediments harbor a large number of microorganisms. Within these sediments, organic matter and upward-migrating methane are important carbon and energy sources fueling a light-independent biosphere.

Quantitative analysis of the risk of hydrogen sulfide release from gas hydrates [PDF]
The role that H2S plays in the global sulfur cycle has been studied extensively in recent years. This paper focuses on the influence of H2S released from gas hydrates on sulfur cycle and establishes a one-dimensional mathematical model to calculate the ...

Characterization and formation mechanism of the basin-marginal deltas in the Paleogene Qiongdongnan Basin, Northwestern South China Sea [PDF]
In this study, based on seismic profiles, complemented with boreholes and well logs, two types of deltas are recognized in the Paleogene Qiongdongnan Basin, namely fan deltas and braided river deltas, and their temporal–spatial evolution characteristics ...

Sill swarms and hydrothermal vents in the Qiongdongnan Basin, northern South China Sea
Sills and hydrothermal vents are commonly observed in sedimentary basins. However, not all sills could generate overlying hydrothermal vents, and whether a sill generates a hydrothermal vent or not is still poorly constrained.
