The 100 my Carboniferous-Permian interval includes: • the fi nal amalgamation and initial breakup of the Pangea supercontinent • the last major ice-ages before those of the Quaternary • the proliferation of terrestrial vegetation as shown in the world’s major coal deposits, and, at the end of the Permian • the greatest known global mass extinction of animals and plants. The Congress offers delegates an opportunity to place local and regional research in a global context and to renew and initiate links with colleagues from other parts of world. Over the course of the 5-day congress, keynote lectures, oral and poster presentations, and discussion forums will take place. The social programme will include an icebreaker cocktail reception and a gala dinner. Perth is the capital of Western Australia, the boom state of the Australian mineral and energy industries. Researchers at UWA and at the Geological Survey of Western Australia have long been involved in studies of the Carboniferous and Permian. Perth lies in the Perth Basin, which was part of the East Gondwana rift system that extended from the north far into the interior of Gondwana. The Western Australian basins of this rift system (Perth, Carnarvon, Canning, Browse, Bonaparte basins) have excellent Carboniferous and/or Permian successions, some of which will be examined on the ICCP fi eld excursions. These have been selected to illustrate the effects of Permo-Carboniferous climate and sea-level changes along a north-south transect into the Gondwanan interior.

E-mail address: [email protected] 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 Abstract 20 This review discusses major applications of stable carbon isotopic 21 measurements of aromatic compounds, along with some specific technical aspects 22 including purification of aromatic fractions for baseline separation. δ13C 23 measurements of organic matter (OM) in sediments and oils are routine in all 24 fields of organic geochemistry, but they are predominantly done on saturated 25 compounds. Aromatic compounds are important contributors to sedimentary 26 organic matter, and provide indication of diagenetic processes, OM source, and 27 thermal maturity. Studies have found evidence for a small 13C-enrichment during 28 diagenetic aromatisation of approximately 1 to 2 ‰, but the formation of polycyclic 29 aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from combustion and hydrothermal processes 30 seems to produce no effect. Likewise, maturation and biodegradation also produce 31 only small isotopic effects. An early application of δ13C of aromatic compounds was 32 in the classification of oil families by source. Bulk measurements have had some 33 success in differentiating marine and terrigenous oils, but were not accurate in all 34 settings.

    Featured: Simon Brassell 9/18/2020 PRE-SCRIPT In the fourth episode of BIOmarkers, the audio series that archives the oral history of organic geochemistry, we speak with Dr. Simon Brassell, Professor of Geological Sciences, ​ Biogeochemistry, and Molecular Organic Geochemistry at the Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at Indiana University Bloomington. In his interview, Simon discusses ​ his time at the University of Bristol, proxies, and what piques his interest today. SCRIPT Fatima Husain: Welcome to BIOmarkers, an audio series that archives the oral history of organic geochemistry. I’m your host, Fatima Husain, and I’m here today with my series co-creators and fellow organic geochemists Angel Mojarro and Juliana Drozd. Angel Mojarro: For today’s episode, we spoke with Dr. Simon Brassell. Simon Brassell: I'm Simon Brassell, I'm a professor of Earth and Planetary Sciences at Indiana University. When anyone asked me what I am, I would say I'm a molecular organic geochemistry and molecular bio bio geochemist, because my area of expertise started in looking at biomarkers, and I have pretty much stayed in that area all along. Juliana Drozd: We spoke with Simon briefly in between sessions at the 2019 International Meeting on Organic Geochemistry about his career pathway and insights into the field. Fatima Husain: It turns out, this isn’t too hard to do: Simon Brassell: This is about something like the 14th, 15th time I've come to IMOG and every year there are two, two. There's one meeting each year that I always try and get to and it's the IMOG and then even years, it's the Gordon research conference on organic chemistry because I learn more at those meetings about the specifics of the subject than I do at any other bigger or meetings that aren't a less focused on organic geochemistry, and it's always great to come back and see people who I've known some for 10 years, some for 20 years, some 30 years, some 40 years.

Previously, GC-MS analyses have shown that all the condensates are formed in oxidizing environment with terrestrial plants as their main source input. No significant differences were apparent for biomarker parameters, likely due to the low biomarker content and high maturity of these condensates. Conventional GC-MS analysis however, may provides limited information on the sources and thermal maturity of complex mixtures due to insufficient component resolution. In the current study, we used comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC×GC-TOFMS) to increase the chromatographic resolution.
