英文摘要	The deposition of tar balls of unknown sources on the coast poses a great threat to the fishery, tourism and coastal biodiversity in the Bohai Sea. This work aimed to identify the sources of tar balls by using oil fingerprint technique. Tar ball samples were collected from the seashore of two islands of the western Bohai Sea and divided into two groups (Group I and Group II). Principal component analysis showed that although Caofeidian oilfield was one of the closest oilfields to the sampling area it was not a source. Fingerprints of characteristic hopanes and steranes showed that samples of Group I were similar to the crude oils from the nearby Jidong oilfield, and samples of Group II were similar to the Penglai-19-3 crude oils. Combined with cross-plots of the samples and the reference oils, it indicated that Group I may come from Jidong and Group II may come from Penglai-19-3. The weathering characteristics of alkanes and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons showed that the samples were affected by natural weathering processes (e.g., evaporation, photooxidation and biodegradation). It revealed that oil pollution from the nearby oilfields can also affect other areas under the influence of ocean circulation. It is the first study on source identification of tar balls from the Bohai Sea and the effects of ocean circulation on the tar ball transport. This study can considerably help to further understand the evolution of tar balls and consequently determine their sources.
