The ratio of the amounts of odd-carbon n-alkanes to those of even-carbon n-alkanes.  4, record 3, English, - carbon%20preference%20index

Carbon Preference Index (CPI). Generally the ratio of abundance of odd over even carbon number paraffins, specifically calculated over the C24-C34 range. Hydrocarbons derived predominantly from terrestrial sources and/or at low maturity exhibit a predominance of odd-numbered alkanes (resulting in a high CPI); this feature disappears with increasing maturation level (CPI approaches 1.0).  5, record 3, English, - carbon%20preference%20index

... case studies show that in ancient detrital sediment the predominance of the original odd n-alkanes of high molecular weight is preserved mainly in relatively shallow shales and silts, where degradation of kerogen has not yet started... With increasing maturity, and odd-even preference(also known as CPI : carbon preference index) of about 5 : 1 in shallow detrital material is reduced to around unity in the zone of oil formation, as a result of thermal degradation and the introduction of new alkanes, which dilutes the original odd-even predominance.  3, record 3, English, - carbon%20preference%20index
