Spore coloration and thermal alteration indices (SCI and TAI): usage (view source)
Revision as of 20:32, 27 May 2014
, 20:32, 27 May 2014→How to use SCI and TAI
SCI (spore coloration index) and TAI (thermal alteration index) are maturation indicators that measure the color of [[palynomorph]]s. Color changes as a function of [[Maturation|maturity]].
SCI (spore coloration index) and TAI (thermal alteration index) are maturation indicators that measure the color of [[palynomorph]]s. Color changes as a function of [[Maturation|maturity]].
There are a number of scales for both SCI and TAI within the exploration industry. The SCI and TAI scales have been standardized to the vitrinite reflectance (R<sub>o</sub>) maturity scale. Users of SCI and TAI data need to have access to the maturation relationship used by the lab supplying the data, and users should be aware of how the scales compare from one lab to another in order to apply the data correctly. These relationships should be available from the vendor performing the analysis.
