夏季风降水对黄土高原现生蜗牛壳体碳酸盐氧同位素组成的影响

为了深入了解黄土地层中丰富的陆生蜗牛壳体碳酸盐化石氧同位素组成的气候环境指示意义,文章对黄土高原典型气候带的现生蜗牛壳体文石氧同位素进行了测量。结果显示:高原半干旱地区蜗牛壳体氧同位素组成相对于半湿润地区显著富集δ¹⁸ O;壳体δ¹⁸ O值与夏季降水量具有密切负相关关系。对照黄土高原气候特征以及夏季风降水氧同位素组成和降水量的关系,认为:1)夏季风降水δ¹⁸ O丰度是影响蜗牛壳体氧同位素组成变化的主要因素;2) 进一步研究黄土沉积物中蜗牛壳体化石氧同位素组成对重建黄土高原夏季风强度变化的历史具有重要的意义。     

桂林地区4万年来石笋高分辨率古生态变化记录

在洞穴次生化学沉积物的形成过程中,碳同位素的演化较氧同位素更复杂,一是来源的复杂,二是分馏机制复杂。但在一定条件下,即假设岩溶动力系统是开放的,CO²供应充分,岩溶水与母岩的作用时间不长,且洞穴碳酸钙是在同位素平衡分馏条件下形成的,那么,其δ１１Ｃ值可以作为地表生态环境指标,即δ_１３Ｃ值越负,地表植被中Ｃ３植物的比例就越大,代表降水颇丰的气候条件;相反则可能代表地表植被中以Ｃ４植物为主,或为植被破坏的“石漠化”环境(由于气候的原因或人为原因所致)。通过盘龙洞１号和响水岩１号石笋的氧碳同位素记录的研究表明,石笋中的碳同位素记录与氧同位素记录有很好的一致性,当夏季风盛行、降水量较大时,石笋的δ_１３     

干旱化对成土碳酸盐碳同位素组成的影响

土壤碳酸盐的碳同位素组成可以作为古环境变化的指标.本文对黄土高原地区S1以来成土碳酸盐和红粘土中碳酸盐的碳同位素进行了研究.根据渭南、吉县、长武和会宁4个剖面末次间冰期以来土壤碳酸盐的碳同位素分析结果,探讨了不同气候条件下成土碳酸盐碳同位素组成的特征及其环境意义,指出气候的干湿程度可能是影响黄土地区成土碳酸盐δ13C值的主要原因;西峰红粘土序列碳酸盐的碳同位素记录表明,δ13C值在4.0Ma B.P.前后有一个明显增加的趋势,反映了我国西北地区上新世干旱化的发展,可能与青藏高原在这一时期发生较大规模的隆升有关.

祁连山木里三露天天然气水合物与碳酸盐相伴产出是一种常见现象。为探讨这些碳酸盐的形成环境,对碳酸盐进行了矿物X射线衍射分析、主微量元素 测试以及碳氧同位素测试。X射线衍射结果表明,样品中碳酸盐矿物主要由方解石、白云石以及少量菱铁矿组成。微量元素和稀土元素特征显示碳酸盐形成于干旱氧化环境。δ¹³C_VPDB为-2.3 ‰~3.77‰,平均为2.43‰;δ18OVPDB为-17.90‰~-10.69‰,变化范围不大,碳氧同位素显示碳酸盐矿物中的碳可能为天然气水合物分解、白云石沉淀和湖水混染等联合作用所致,氧的 来源可能受大气降水影响。

一、引言 利用质谱法测定碳酸盐中的碳和氧同位素通常用热分解法、磷酸法或氟化法从碳酸盐中制备CO_2。由于用磷酸法获得同位素组成的重复性较好,可以获得精密度和准确度较高的测量结果,因此常采用磷酸法制备样品。即用100％的无水磷酸和碳酸盐矿样分别放在反应器的二支管内,抽掉空气后,     

末次冰期黄土中蜗牛壳体碳酸盐同位素组成与其环境指示意义

为了揭示蜗牛化石壳体碳酸盐（文石）稳定同位素组成的古气候和古生态环境指示意义,对采集于河南荥阳邙山末次冰期黄土剖面上部中的粉华蜗牛（Cathaica pulveratrix）化石壳体碳酸盐进行了碳、氧稳定同位素分析,同时还对全岩有机物质（SOM）碳同位素组成以及全岩磁化率和粒度等气候替代指标进行分析,结果显示：剖面中反映蜗牛食物碳同位素组成的壳体δ¹³C_SSA的变化,与反映古植被碳同位素组成的全岩有机物质碳同位素组成（δ¹³C_SOM）无显著的相关关系,但是壳体¹³C相对于SOM的富集程度（Δδ¹³C_SSA-SOM）的变化与石笋氧同位素记录的末次冰期东亚夏季风强度演化同步一致;   壳体δ¹⁸O_SSA的变化不但与黄土磁化率、粒度等气候替代指标变化具有显著相关性,同样也与末次冰期东亚夏季风强度演化同步一致。这些特征,一方面说明受季风环流控制的气候温湿程度变化左右蜗牛夏季活动的几率和食物的类型,干冷气候条件下,相对温湿夏季成为蜗牛活动主要时期,相对富集¹³C苔藓、菌类和植物可能是蜗牛的主要食物;   另一方面暗示蜗牛化石壳体碳酸盐稳定同位素组成能够指示气候温湿程度和生态环境的变化。     

渤海湾全新世贝壳堤和牡蛎礁的古环境

自然界中ＣＯ＿２主要来自有机质、大气和碳酸盐岩石，因同位素分馏作用，其稳定碳同位素组成在这三种物质中的分配不尽相同。本文根据地下水实测ＨＣ，的δ￣（１３）Ｃ￣２值，利用热力学及同位素平衡计算与之相平衡的ＣＯ＿２气体的δ￣（１３）Ｃ值，确定了ＣＯ＿２气体来源，进而确定了的有机来源。     

稳定碳同位素在第四纪古环境研究中的应用

文章对陆相沉积物、湖沼相沉积物以及脊椎动物牙齿中的δ¹³C研究作了系统的综述,特别对存在的问题提出了一些看法,认为黄土-古土壤序列中有机质δ¹³C与碳酸盐δ¹³C变化趋势相反的原因是CO₂与碳酸盐交换平衡时的分馏系数在古土壤堆积时和黄土发育时不一致造成的;陆相沉积物的有机质δ¹³C较碳酸盐δ¹³C能更加直接地反映沉积时地表植被状况,陆相沉积物的碳酸盐δ¹³C在古生态中的应用还有待于对它的形成机制和形成过程进行进一步的研究;我国黄土高原末次冰期的气候不利于C4的生长.文章强调古环境、古生态研究应该从现代过程入手,了解现代植物δ13C与气候参数的关系以及现代C4植物的分布规律.同时还认为分子化石的稳定同位素研究这一新研究手段将会给第四纪研究带来更新的活力.     

我国南方岩溶区和北方黄土区的大气CO2效应

我国南方岩溶区与北方黄土区都是巨大的碳库。碳酸盐的溶蚀及再结晶是两个碳库与大气ＣＯ２交换的重要过程;碳的区域平衡是评价化学风化消耗或逸散ＣＯ２的基础,岩溶区与黄土区在地球化学风化的环境背景。溶蚀过程,产物运移和归宿等差异很大。黄土区化学风化消耗大气ＣＯ２通量较岩溶区小。目前评价两类地区土壤与大气ＣＯ２的源汇关系尚不成熟,需要定量认识土壤ＣＯ２与下伏碳酸盐岩溶蚀或与下伏黄土次生碳酸盐化作用。岩溶区湖     

Authigenic carbonate burial in the Late Devonian–Early Mississippian Bakken Formation (Williston Basin,USA)

Late Devonian (Famennian) marine successions globally are typified by organic-rich black shales deposited in anoxic and euxinic waters and the cessation of shelf carbonate sedimentation. This global ‘carbonate crisis’, known as the Hangenberg Event, coincides with a major extinction of reef-building metazoans and perturbations to the global carbon cycle, evidenced by positive carbon-isotope excursions of up to 4‰. It has been suggested that authigenic carbonate, formed as cements in sedimentary pore spaces during early burial diagenesis, is a significant mass fraction of the total global carbon burial flux, particularly during periods of low oxygen concentration. Because some authigenic carbonate could have originated from remineralization of organic carbon in sediments, it is possible for this reservoir to be isotopically depleted and thereby drive changes in the carbon isotopic composition of seawater. This study presents bulk isotopic and elemental analyses from fine-grained siliciclastics of the Late Devonian–Early Mississippian Bakken Formation (Williston Basin, USA) to assess the volume and isotopic composition of carbonates in these sediments. Carbonate in the Bakken black shales occurs primarily as microscopic disseminated dolomite rhombs and calcite cements that, together, comprise a significant mass-fraction (ca 9%). The elemental composition of the shales is indicative of a dynamic anoxic to sulphidic palaeoenvironment, likely supported by a fluctuating chemocline. Despite forming in an environment favourable to remineralization of organic matter and the precipitation of isotopically depleted authigenic carbonates, the majority of carbon isotope measurements of disseminated carbonate fall between −3‰ and +3‰, with systematically more depleted carbonates in the deeper-water portions of the basin. Thus, although there is evidence for a significant total mass-fraction of carbonate with contribution from remineralized organic matter, Bakken authigenic carbonates suggest that Famennian black shales are unlikely to be sufficiently ¹³C-depleted relative to water column dissolved inorganic carbon to serve as a major lever on seawater isotopic composition.

Carbon and Oxygen Isotopic Compositions of Carbonates from Precambrian Apatite-Bearing Carbonate Rocks of the Aldan Shield

Geostructural setting, as well as mineral and isotopic compositions, of separate apatite deposits and occurrences in the Aldan Shield composed of Precambrian metasedimentary apatite–carbonate rocks are considered. In terms of carbon and oxygen isotopic compositions, they differ from other carbonate rocks of the Aldan Shield, including carbonatites and Ca–Mg metasomatites, and resemble Phanerozoic and Precambrian metasedimentary carbonates. They formed in oxidizing conditions. The contribution of evaporite processes at different stages of their formation is supported by the carbonate enrichment in ¹³C and the presence of sulfates. It was established that apatite–carbonate rocks represent the product of complex alternation of sedimentary processes at different values of salinity in the basins occasionally characterized by the decomposition of older sediments under subaerial conditions.     

Analysis of carbon and oxygen stable isotopes in carbonate rocks by the laser micro-sampling technique

The analysis of stable isotopes of carbon and oxygen in different carbonate rocks by the phosphoric acid method is not easier than that by the laser sampling method developed in recent years, which optically focuses laser beams with sufficient energy on a micro area of a thin section in a vacuum sample box via microscope. CO 2 produced by heating decomposition of carbonate was purified by the vacuum system, and the stable isotopic values of carbon and oxygen were calculated and analyzed on a mass spectrometer. This paper adopted the laser micro-sampling technique to analyze the stable isotopes of carbon and oxygen in dolomite, carbonate cement, stromatolite and different forms of dawsonite (donbassite). Results indicated that the laser micro-sampling method is effective in analyzing carbonate composition and could be a convincing proof for justification on carbonate composition analysis.     

冷水碳酸盐岩研究现状与展望

长期以来,海相碳酸盐沉积物被广泛认为是温暖浅海沉积环境中的产物,然而近年来国外研究表明,在冷水陆架环境中,也可以形成规模的碳酸盐沉积,即冷水碳酸盐岩。通过对大量文献的调研,综述了冷水碳酸盐岩的概念、地质特征、沉积模式等方面的研究进展,并展望了该研究领域未来的发展方向。研究表明,冷水碳酸盐沉积是指在(古)纬度约30°~35°以上的温带及寒带地区、温度约20℃以下的沉积水体中,或是在富营养的寒冷上升流水体中形成的碳酸盐沉积物或岩石,其沉积特征与暖水碳酸盐岩不同。冷水碳酸盐沉积物中的生物颗粒组合以底栖有孔虫、软体动物、苔藓虫等异养生物和钙质红藻为主,缺乏造礁珊瑚和钙质绿藻以及鲕粒、集合颗粒等非骨架颗粒,而且沉积物中灰泥基质含量较少,矿物成分以方解石为主,氧同位素较重,胶结作用弱,以破坏性成岩作用为主。冷水碳酸盐沉积形态以缓坡为主,波浪磨蚀和再沉积作用较强。古代冷水碳酸盐岩的沉积特征、识别标志及其作为储层的油气资源潜力尚处于探索阶段,仍需进一步深入研究。     

The genesis of calcite in carbonate rocks of the sedimentary basins: Evidence from the stable carbon and oxygen isotopes composition

The distributions of stable carbon and oxygen isotopes in modern and ancient limestones of various types were studied. Carbonate samples from modern sediments were collected in the Black and Barents Seas. Ancient carbonates were represented by Upper Jurassic (Kimmeridgian-Tithonian) limestones from the central part of the West Siberian basin. Carbonate samples include remains of modern and Upper Jurassic fauna, carbonate crust from sediments of the Black Sea, carbonate tube from sediments of the Barents Sea, and Upper Jurassic limestone from the carbonate layer found at top of Abalak, bottom of Bazhenov deposits in the central part of the West Siberian basin. According to the results of the isotope analysis and comparison with modern carbonates, Upper Jurassic limestones of the West Siberian basin belong to the group of methane-derived carbonates and precipitated as a result of anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM). Fractures in limestones are filled with secondary calcite.     

Isotopic signatures of deposition and transformation of Lower Cambrian saliferous rocks in the Irkutsk Amphitheater: Communication 3. Carbon and oxygen isotopic compositions in carbonates

In previous communications based on the study of sulfur and strontium, we showed that Lower Cambrian rocks of the Irkutsk Amphitheater underwent a significant epigenetic transformation. All postsedimentary alterations of rocks are related to the influence of water solutions that provoke the direct (physical) dissolution of material and its chemical transformation. In particular, an appreciable portion of anhydrites disappeared from the section due to reduction. Probably, these processes took place several times in the past and they are continuing at present. A similar conclusion was deduced from the strontium isotopic composition of carbonate rocks. Their strontium isotopic composition is usually shifted relative to the primary composition, although the prevalence of sulfate and carbonate rocks in the section promotes the stability of strontium isotopic composition with respect to secondary alterations. The carbon isotope system is even more stable due to the abundance of carbonate rocks in the section. This circumstance is probably responsible for the incapacity of isotope data to serve as obvious evidence of the epigenetic transformation of carbonates. The major elements of the evolution of carbon isotope signature could be retained since the sedimentation stage.     

Stable Isotope Geochemistry of the Beishan Stratabound Sphalerite-Pyrite Deposit, Guangxi

Based on lead isotope data, it has been shown that lead in the Beishan stratabound sphalerite-pyrite deposit came mainly from the oldland and its underlying basement rocks and, subordinately, the Devonian itself or the seawater at that time. As to its primary source, upper crust lead was predominant. while lower crust lead or upper mantle lead was subordinate. Sulfur was formed mainly through bacterial reduction of marine carbonates. The carbon and oxygen isotopic analyses for carbonate rocks and minerals have demonstrated that carbonate rocks in the Beishan area are normal marine sediments. The isotopic characteristics of the carbonate rocks are intermediate between those of the northern Guangdong and central Hunan, but closer to those of the central Hunan basin. The formation of the Beishan deposit underwent: a depositional-diagenetic mineralization stage and a successive post-diagenetic enrichmentremoulding one.
