Post-rift tectonic reactivation and its effect on deep-water deposits in the Qiongdongnan Basin, northwestern South China Sea [PDF]
The post-rift evolution of extensional basins is traditionally thought to be dominated by thermal subsidence due to cessation of the major fault activity during the post-rift stage. The Qiongdongnan Basin, which is located in the northwestern continental

Hotspots, trends, and regional focus on oil or gas exploration: A bibliometric comparative study
This paper explores the research trends in global oil and gas exploration through the bibliometric analysis of 3460 articles collected from the Web of Science database on oil and gas exploration published from 2013 to 2023. The research hotspots, objects, regional distribution, methods, and evaluation methods of oil and gas exploration are analyzed and

Numerical simulation of sedimentation in the Central Canyon of Lingshui area, Qiongdongnan Basin
Deepwater canyon is now the focus of the research field of offshore oil and gas exploration.In the Qiongdongnan Basin of the northwestern South China Sea, several deepwater exploration boreholes have been deployed in the Central Canyon to reveal the lithologic hydrocarbon reservoir of sediment infill therein.However, due to the relatively limited ...

This study presents the first empirical evidence of successful rehabilitation and post‐release monitoring of a short‐finned pilot whale in the South China Sea—a region where such data are critically lacking despite frequent stranding events. Using satellite telemetry and a dedicated resighting expedition, we documented the 52‐day movement, diving ...

The segmentations and the significances of the Central Canyon System in the Qiongdongnan Basin, northern South China Sea [PDF]
The submarine canyons as the important element of the source to sink have attracted the widespread interests in studying their morphologic features, stratigraphic frames, depositional architectures, as well as the related depositional model, hydrodynamic

Patterns of shelf margin clinoform: control of the development of deep-water sedimentary systems
The clinothem is the fundamental element of basin infill and plays an important role in the source-to-sink system of deep-water basins. In this study, which is based on 2D and 3D seismic data, the spatiotemporal evolution of clinothems and depositional ...

Dynamics of Iron‐Bound Organic Carbon Across Different Development Stages of Marine Cold Seeps
Abstract Marine cold seeps, where subsurface methane‐rich fluids discharge at seafloors, are “oases of life” that sustain highly active organic carbon (OC) and iron (Fe) cycling along the global continental margins. However, the interactions between Fe and OC and their impacts on the development and long‐term carbon preservation of cold seep ecosystems

The deep‐water area of the south slope of the Lingshui Depression in the Qiongdongnan Basin has already yielded the Deep Sea No. 1 gas field. However, so far, there have been no significant breakthroughs in exploration in the shallow‐water area of the north slope.

Cryptic Carbon Cycle at Methane‐Seeps of the South China Sea: Evidence From Porewaters
Abstract Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) governs methane consumption at seeps, yet δ13C‐CH4 values in the sulfate‐methane transitions are commonly lower than predicted from preferential 12C utilization by methanotrophic archaea, suggesting the influence of a different methane source. To address this isotope discrepancy, we used high‐resolution ion
