HYDROCARBON CONSTITUENTS OF ICELAND LEAF FOSSIL
The hydrocarbon content of leaf fossils from Iceland has been investigated by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The distribution patterns of normal hydrocarbons, branched hydrocarbons, and cyclic hydrocarbons are compared to those of present-day living organisms. The diagenetic pathways of these...

| Summary: | The hydrocarbon content of leaf fossils from Iceland has been investigated by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The distribution patterns of normal hydrocarbons, branched hydrocarbons, and cyclic hydrocarbons are compared to those of present-day living organisms. The diagenetic pathways of these hydrocarbons are discussed. |
