Biodiversity is one of the important biological factors in determining water quality and maintaining the
ecological balance. In this study, there are 223 species of phytoplankton were identified, and they are as
follows: 88 species of Bacillariophyta and were at 44%,70 species of Chlorophyta and they were at 29 %, 39
species of Cyanophyta and they were at 16 %, 12 species of Euglenozoa and they were at 4 %, four species of
Miozoa and they were at 3 %, and, Phylum Charophyta and Ochrophyta were only eight and two species,
respectively and both of them were at 2%. The common phytoplankton recorded in the sites studied
include Nitzschia palea, Scenedesmus quadricauda, Oscillatoria princeps, and Peridinium bipes, These
species recorded a significant positive correlation with Ec, Sio3, and WT. Phytoplankton
including Gomphosphaeria semen-Vitis, Dicloster acuatus, Tetrastrum heteracanthum, and Dictyocha fibula,
recorded a significant positive correlation with NO3, PO4, DO, and PH. Water temperature ranged between
14.200 -33.900 ºc in Al-Mansoury and Al-Sada respectively. Electrical conductivity ranged between 2.790 -
11.900 ms/cm in Al-Sada and Al-Mansoury respectively. PH ranged between7.750-8.600 in Al-Dawody and
Al-Mansoury respectively. Dissolved Oxygen (DO) ranged between 5.950 -13.000 mg/l in Al-Dawody and
Al-Mansoury respectively.WT recorded negative correlation with pH (r= - 0.591), NO3-2
(r= - 0.463) and DO
(r= - 0.603). Nitrate ranged between 0.570-12.200 µg /l in Al- and Al-Sada respectively. Phosphate ranged
between 0.003-0.154 µg/l, in Al-Dawody and Al-Mansoury respectively. Silicate ranged between 51.200-
198.600 µg /l in Al-Baraka and Al-Dawody respectively. Shannon - Weiner index (H`) ranged between 2.275-
3.162 in Al-Dawody and Al-Mansoury respectively. Simpson index ranged between 0.856-0.950 in AlMansoury and Al-Sada respectively, while the Evenness index was 0.514-0.933 in Al-Dawody and Al-Baraka
respectively. Shannon- Weiner index (H`) recorded a significant positive correlation with the Simpson index .
The studied succession is deposited during late Berriasian-Aptian interval, which is represented by the Zubair, Ratawi, Yamama formations. The present study includes stratigraphic development and basin analysis for 21 boreholes (Rachi-1, 2; Rifaei-1, Diwan- 1; Ratawi-1, 2; Halfaia-5; West Qurna 12, 15; Nahr Umr-7,8; Zubair-47,49; North Rumaila- 72, 131, 158; Suba-7; Majnoon-2, 3 and Luhais-2, 12) distributed within 13 oil fields in the southern Iraq. The back-stripping process determined the original direction of basin depocenter for the studied succession. The Yamama basin in the study area stretches from southeast to southwest with single depocenters, it was located in the southeast of the study area near wells Mj-2, Mj-3.NR-8 and

Show MoreThe middle Cenomanian – early Turonian Mishrif Formation, a major carbonate reservoir unit in southern Iraq, was studied using cuttings and core samples and wireline logs (gamma‐ray, density and sonic) from 66 wells at 15 oilfields. Depositional facies ranging from deep marine to tidal flat were recorded. Microfacies interpretations together with wireline log interpretations show that the formation is composed of transgressive and regressive hemicycles. The regressive hemicycles are interpreted to indicate the progradation of rudist lithosomes (highstand systems tract deposits) towards distal basinal locations such as the Kumait, Luhais and Abu Amood oilfield areas. Transgressive hemicycles (transgressive systems tract deposits)
