摘要: The abundances and distributions of terrestrial higher plant lipids have been investigated in two cores from the Equatorial North Atlantic. Two distinct populations n-alkanes (C23-C35) recognised, a predominant distribution subordinate unknown, possibly bacterial, origin. abundance, flux predominantly component is shown to be linked palaeoclimatic change. utilization n-alkane proposed as potential tool reflecting temperature and/or aridity continental dust source region. abundance presumed n-alkanols has found covary with n-alkanes.
