海洋酸化对颗石藻的影响

工业革命以来人类活动产生了大量二氧化碳气体（CO2）并释放到大气中。CO2溶于海水,造成海水pH值降低,改变海洋碳酸系统的平衡。海洋酸化对海洋生态系统特别是钙化生物构成威胁。颗石藻作为主要的钙化浮游生物,在海洋碳循环过程中起着重要的作用。大多数培养实验表明CO2浓度上升会促进颗石藻光合作用。而海洋酸化对不同种或不同品系颗石藻钙化作用产生不同的影响。     

早三叠世海相碳酸盐碳同位素研究进展

早三叠世是地球发展史上的特殊时期,代表了古、中生代过渡时期的生态重建与复苏.随着各种“异常环境事件”信息在近年陆续被揭示,早三叠世地质学研究成为地学界新的热点领域.海相碳酸盐碳同位素组成记录了碳循环的变化,是理解重大突变期的生态环境事件和地球过程的重要切入点.最近10年的研究表明,过去集中在二叠纪/三叠纪界线附近发现的“负漂移”现象只能代表海洋化学持续了约5 Ma的动荡局面的开始,直到中三叠世才趋于平稳,高频率、大幅度的整体演变型式已很难用过去提出的机制进行解释.全球范围内缺乏可精确对比性以及高达+8‰的正向极值的成因等,都是值得深入思考的问题.     

四川盆地宣汉渡口和重庆北碚下三叠统海相碳酸盐碳同位素组成与演化

早三叠世海水的碳同位素组成与演化是二叠纪-三叠纪生物群体灭绝事件之后全球生态萧条与重建时期地球碳循环的重要记录,为地学界长期高度关注。文中测试了四川盆地宣汉渡口和重庆北碚下三叠统及相邻地层258个海相碳酸盐样品的碳、氧同位素组成,以便探讨早三叠世海水的碳同位素组成与演化。这些样品对海水碳同位素组成具有不同的保存性,飞仙关组及嘉陵江组第一、三段保存较好,而嘉陵江组第二、四段保存较差。基于氧同位素可以更为敏感地反映海相碳酸盐成岩蚀变性的原理,在碳、氧同位素相关性分析的基础上,以δ¹⁸O<-7.5‰为剔除标准,筛选出近200个有效数据建立了碳同位素演化曲线,该曲线与前人在贵州建立的同期曲线具有很好的可对比性。曲线显示出海水碳同位素组成的巨大波动,变化幅度达8.55‰,包括2个完整的上升-下降旋回,第1个旋回由飞仙关组和嘉陵江组第一段组成,第2个旋回由嘉陵江组第二段、第三段和部分第四段组成,同时还包括若干短周期的次级旋回。利用曲线形态与前人建立的同期曲线进行了岩石地层与年代地层单位的对比,飞仙关组可大致与Induan阶对应,嘉一段可大致与Smithian亚阶对应,嘉二段、嘉三段和嘉四段下部可大致Spathian亚阶对应;绿豆岩作为下-中三叠统界线其位置可能偏高,下-中三叠统界线应该位于绿豆岩之下的嘉四段内部。早三叠世海水碳同位素组成高频率大幅度的波动指示了生物大灭绝后环境的不稳定性,其中菌藻类等微生物灾后过度繁盛,可能导致了有机碳在短时间内的快速埋藏和海水碳同位素的正漂移;而碳同位素大规模的负漂移可能与甲烷水合物释放带来的轻碳有关。研究认为,白云岩所在的地层段往往具有更高的δ¹³C值,这可能说明微生物活动、白云岩形成和海水δ¹³C值升高之间的有机联系。下三叠统的白云岩、尤其是嘉二段和嘉四段的白云岩可能是微生物成因的,嘉陵江组有机碳的生产和埋藏可能主要是与白云岩形成有关的微生物的贡献,具最高δ¹³C值的嘉二段的烃类在一定程度上可能具有自生自储的特点。     

土壤次生碳酸盐碳氧稳定同位素古环境意义及应用

土壤次生碳酸盐碳氧稳定同位素特征是反映古气候与古环境的重要代用指标,其碳氧稳定同位素组成分别受土壤CO2中C同位素组成和大气水的O同位素控制。在一定深度的土壤中,土壤次生碳酸盐δ^13C就主要受当地植物类型(C3植物和C4植物等)控制。土壤次生碳酸盐样预处理中剔除土壤中原生碳酸盐以及有机物污染尤为重要。土壤中次生碳酸盐C、O稳定同位素地球化学在土壤发生学、古气候恢复、古生态重建以及全球变化研究中应用日益广泛,但解译时可能受应用年代范围、成岩作用、原生和次生碳酸盐混杂、土壤碳酸盐多元发生等因素影响,其应用机理和范围还需进一步探讨。     

Stable isotope studies and processes of carbonate formation in Hungarian alkali basalts and lamprophyres: evolution of magmatic fluids and magma-sediment interactions

Processes of carbonate formation have been related to C and O isotopic compositions in the Mesozoic alkali basalt (Mecsek Mts.) and lamprophyre (Transdanubian Range) suites of Hungary. In the studied magrnatic rocks, carbonates are present as ocelli, amygdales, xenoliths, veins and groundmass carbonate. C and O isotope studies of these types of carbonate have yielded information on the origin of the carbonates and indicated the following processes of formation that determined the δ¹³C and δ¹⁸O values of the carbonates:(1)Crystallization of magmatic carbonate. Textural characteristics and δ¹³C values suggest formation of magmatic carbonate in alkali basalt and lamprophyre dikes, whereas the δ¹⁸O compositions of these carbonates indicate low temperature oxygen isotope exchange with magmatic fluids.(2) Assimilation of sedimentary carbonate by silicate magmas. Even completely recrystallized amygdales and ocelli of basalts and lamprophyres have preserved their sedimentary δ¹³C values. In contrast, variations in the extent of mobilization and isotope exchange with magmatic fluids are reflected in differences in the ranges of the δ¹⁸O values of amygdales, ocelli and veins, and can be attributed to different amounts of fluids involved in the magmatic events.(3) Low temperature alteration of magmatic rocks caused only ¹⁸O-enrichment in the carbonate amygdales of basalts and the groundmass carbonates of lamprophyres, indicating that no externally-derived CO₂ was present in the alteration fluids.(4) Degassing of magma and magmatic fluid. Correlations between δ¹³C and δ¹⁸O data, magma crystallization depths and amygdale sizes in the alkali basalts suggest that CO₂ degassing has been responsible for the negative δ¹³C and positive δ¹⁸O shifts observed. A similar trend was found in the lamprophyres, but the extent of the δ¹⁸O shift indicates that in these rocks H₂O degassing also played an important role.     

上扬子石炭-二叠纪海相碳酸盐的锶同位素演化与全球海平面变化

地质历史中海水的锶同位素组成是时间的函数,全球海平面变化是其最主要的控制因素,上扬子地区石炭-二叠纪海相碳酸盐的锶同位素演化曲线与海平面变化曲线有着很好的一致性。锶同位素演化曲线说明:1)早石炭世是一个海水逐渐加深的全球海平面上升时期,锶同位素最小值所显示的最大海泛面的年龄为 34 2Ma,位于杜内阶和韦宪阶的界线上 ;2 )晚石炭世是一个全球海平面下降时期 ;3)整个二叠纪都是全球海平面上升时期,晚二叠世的海平面上升不仅幅度大,而且海水在短时间内迅速加深 ;4)晚二叠世具有古生代海相碳酸盐的锶同位素最小值,显示晚二叠世末的全球淹没事件,最大海泛面的年龄为 2 5 0Ma,正好在二叠 /三叠纪界线附近 ;5 )二叠 /三叠纪之交的全球生物绝灭事件可能与二叠世末的全球淹没事件有关。     

重庆东部地区寒武系龙王庙组碳、氧同位素特征及其意义

在野外露头和镜下薄片观察分析的基础上,对重庆东部地区下寒武统龙王庙组83个碳酸盐岩样品的碳、氧同位素进行测试,并分析了其所保留的海水原始信息的有效性。结果表明,扣除无效数据后,重庆地区龙王庙组δ¹³C值分布在-4.300‰~2.694‰之间,平均值为-0.031‰;δ¹⁸O值分布在-9.880‰~-0.100‰之间,平均值为-7.396‰;纵向上,碳同位素值整体呈现先降低后升高的趋势,底部、中上部及顶部为正值且变化幅度小;中下部整体为负值且波动幅度大,正、负漂移事件频发。古环境恢复结果显示,龙王庙期重庆东部地区整体处于海相沉积环境,海水盐度在龙王庙组早期较低,晚期较高;海水温度主要介于20~30,℃之间,属温暖或炎热的亚热带气候;龙王庙期共经历3期海退—海侵作用,海平面上升、海洋生产力增加、有机碳快速埋藏使得海洋中¹³C含量升高,反之则使其降低。龙王庙组沉积中期与末期,δ¹³C值负偏,水体较浅,盐度较高,是白云岩发育的最有利阶段。     

高压下深海碳循环的过程及其对生命活动的影响

目前约25%化石燃料来源的CO₂被海洋吸收,缓解了人类活动对气候变化的影响。海洋通过多个概念的碳泵将大气中的CO₂输送到深海。深海高压和低温的特点有利于CO₂溶解,目前已经储存了相当于大气含量50倍的无机碳,另外,深海沉积物中还储存有大量甲烷水合物。认识深海中的碳循环过程,对于保护海洋固碳能力、开发固碳潜力有重要意义。总结了国内外在海洋碳库、碳输送研究方面的进展,重点讨论了深海C元素转化循环的过程以及高压对生命活动的影响。微生物驱动了深海碳循环,大部分浮游植物所包含的有机碳在沉降过程中被微生物矿化成CO₂以及转化为难降解的有机碳,使深海成为巨大的、长周转时间的有机碳库; 高压能提高古菌甲烷厌氧氧化的活性,提升屏蔽海底甲烷释放的能力,同时,高压下氧化甲烷的过程中不仅产生碳酸氢盐,还产生可支持异养生物的乙酸,因此,全球甲烷厌氧氧化的通量可能被低估; 高压下细胞代谢额外产生的氨,可作为氨氧化古菌固定无机碳的潜在能量来源。总之,研究现在以及未来的人类活动对深海碳循环过程的影响以及环境效应,评估应用深海作为地球工程技术平台封存CO₂的可能性,都迫切需要加深对碳循环在内的深海元素循环的认识。     

Marine Carbon Sequestration: Current Situation,Problems and Future

Abuse of fossil energy resources results in the excessive discharge of greenhouse gases, especially CO₂, enhancing the trend of global climate warming. Carbon sequestration is an important method to lower the increasing rate of CO₂ concentration in the atmosphere. Marine carbon sequestration is a novel idea for reducing CO₂ emission, and its reservoir mainly includes seawater and submarine sediment, which not only possess a great potential capacity of carbon sequestration, but also have high safety in relation to continental reservoirs. In this paper, we expounded the technique principle and mechanisms of marine carbon sequestration, potential capacity and time duration of marine carbon sequestration, main factors influencing marine carbon sequestration, CO₂ injection technique, impacts on marine biota from over emission of CO₂ and technique monitoring the leakage of CO₂. Finally, a prospect of marine carbon sequestration was proposed, and its hot topics were accordingly pointed out.     

土壤碳动力学同位素示踪研究进展

土壤是陆地生态系统中最大的碳库。土壤碳动力学旨在研究土壤有机碳库的大小及更新速率。土壤有机碳库可分为 3个亚碳库："活动"、"缓慢"和"稳定"碳库。碳同位素特别是 14 C可作为研究土壤碳动力学的理想示踪剂;δ 13 C值是定量研究C3和C4植被更替历史的有效手段; 14 C示踪及年代测定与 13 C信号联合使用,可以估算土壤碳库的大小和驻留时间。碳同位素示踪应用于土壤碳动力学研究取得了较大进展,但是由于缺乏可靠的全球数据库和标准方法来量化土壤有机碳库,导致对土壤各亚碳库的大小和更新速率以及土壤CO2的估算仍存在较大的不确定性,从而难以估计土壤碳库大小的变化对大气CO 2浓度和全球气候变化的潜在贡献。     

土地利用变化对高寒草甸土壤有机质更新的影响

对青藏高原海北站区的自然土壤和扰动土壤进行高分辨率采样,测定土壤根系、有机碳及其¹⁴C含量;用¹⁴C示踪技术探讨土地利用变化对高寒草甸土壤有机质更新的影响.研究表明,土地利用变化对高寒草甸土壤碳循环影响显著.耕作活动导致扰动土壤有机碳储量比自然土壤增加29.35%;扰动土壤剖面10~50 cm深土壤有机质的¹⁴C含量相对富集;自然土壤大多数有机碳储存在土壤表层,更新时间<50 a,同一深度扰动土壤有机碳储量显著少,更新时间长(171~294 a);自然土壤10 cm以下有机碳主要为更新时间>1 000 a的稳定碳所控制,扰动土壤的相应值出现在40 cm以下;自然土壤有机质更新产生的CO₂通量为114 gC·m^-2·a^-1,扰动土壤为48.7 gC·m^-2·a^-1.     

Two types of gneisses associated with eclogite at Shuanghe in the Dabie terrane: carbon isotope, zircon U–Pb dating and oxygen isotope

There are two types of gneisses, biotite paragneiss and granitic orthogneiss, to be closely associated with UHP eclogite at Shuanghe in the Dabie terrane. Both concentration and isotope composition of bulk carbon in apatite and host gneisses were determined by the EA-MS online technique. Structural carbonate within the apatite was detected by the XRD and FTIR techniques. Significant ¹³C-depletion was observed in the apatite with δ¹³C values of −28.6‰ to −22.3‰ and the carbon concentrations of 0.70–4.98 wt.% CO₂ despite a large variation in δ¹⁸O from −4.3‰ to +10.6‰ for these gneisses. There is significant heterogeneity in both δ¹³C and δ¹⁸O within the gneisses on the scale of several tens meters, pointing to the presence of secondary processes after the UHP metamorphism. Considerable amounts of carbonate carbon occur in some of the gneisses that were also depleted in ¹³C primarily, but subjected to overprint of ¹³C-rich CO₂-bearing fluid after the UHP metamorphism. The ¹³C-depleted carbon in the gneisses is interpreted to be inherited from their precursors that suffered meteoric–hydrothermal alteration before plate subduction. Both low δ¹³C values and structural carbonate in the apatite suggest the presence of ¹³C-poor CO₂ in the UHP metamorphic fluid. The ¹³C-poor CO₂ is undoubtedly derived from oxidation of organic matter in the subsurface fluid during the prograde UHP metamorphism.

Zircons from two samples of the granitic orthogneiss exhibit low δ¹⁸O values of −4.1‰ to −1.1‰, demonstrating that its protolith was significantly depleted in ¹⁸O prior to magma crystallization. U–Pb discordia datings for the ¹⁸O-depleted zircons yield Neoproterozoic ages of 724–768 Ma for the protolith of the granitic orthogneiss, consistent with protolith ages of most eclogites and orthogneisses from the other regions in the Dabie–Sulu orogen. Therefore, the meteoric–hydrothermal alteration is directly dated to occur at mid-Neoproterozoic, and may be correlated with the Rodinia supercontinental breakup and the snowball Earth event. It is thus deduced that the igneous protolith of the granitic orthogneiss and some eclogites would intrude into the older sequences composing the sedimentary protoliths of the biotite paragneiss and some eclogites along the northern margin of the Yangtze plate at mid-Neoproterozoic, and drove local meteoric–hydrothermal circulation systems in which both ¹³C- and ¹⁸O-depleted fluid interacted with the protoliths of these UHP rocks now exposed in the Dabie terrane.     

Hydrothermal gases offshore Milos Island, Greece

Hydrothermal fluids emerge from the seafloor of Paleohori Bay on Milos. The gases in these fluids contain mostly CO₂ but CH₄ concentrations up to 2% are present. The stable carbon isotopic composition of the CO₂ (near 0%) indicates an inorganic carbon source (dissociation of underlying marine carbonates). The carbon and hydrogen isotopes of most CH₄ samples are enriched in the heavy species (δ¹³C = −9.4 to −17.8‰; δD = −102 to −189‰) which is believed to be characteristic for an abiogenic production of CH₄ by CO₂-reduction (Fischer-Tropsch reactions). Depletions in the deuterium content of three CH₄ samples (to −377%) are probably caused by unknown subsurface rock alteration processes. Secondary hydrogen isotope exchange processes between methane, hydrogen and water are most likely responsible for calculated unrealistic methane formation temperatures.

We show that excess helium, slightly enriched in ³He, is present in the hydrothermal fluids emerging the seafloor of Paleohori Bay. When the isotopic ratio of the excess component is calculated a ³He/⁴He_excess of 3.6 · 10⁻⁶ is obtained: This indicates that the excess component consists of about one third of mantle helium and two thirds of radiogenic helium. We infer that the mantle-derived component has been strongly diluted by radiogenic helium during the ascent of the fluids to the surface.     

Carbon and Strontium Isotopes of Late Palaeozoic Marine Carbonates in the Upper Yangtze Platform,Southwest China

238 marine carbonate samples were collected from seven sedimentary sections ofthe entire late Palaeozoic (Permian, Carboniferous and Devonian) in the Upper Yangtze Plat-form, southwest China. Based on the absence of cathodoluminescence and very low Mn (gener-ally<50 ppm) contents of the samples, it is thought that they contain information on the orig-inal sea water geochemistry. The results of isotopic analyses of these samples are presented interms of δ~(13)C and ~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr ratios versus geological time. The strontium data, consistent withother similar data based on samples from North America, Europe, Africa and other areas inAsia, support the notion of a global consistency in strontium isotope composition of marinecarbonates. The strontium data exhibit three intervals of relatively low ~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr ratios in thelate Middle Devonian to early Late Devonian, Early Carboniferous and Early Permian, corre-sponding to global eustatic high sea level stands. The lowest ~(87)Sr/~(86)Sr ratio recorded in theLate Permian was probably caused by substantial basalt eruptions in the Upper Yangtze Plat-form at the time. Three corresponding periods of relatively high δ~(13)C values at roughly the samethe intervals were caused by a relatively high rate of accumulation of organic carbon duringsea level rises at these times. The deposition of coal was probably responsible for the increaseof sea water δ~(13)C at other times. The δ~(13)C values drop dramatically near theDevonian/Carboniferous, Carboniferous/Permian and Permian/Triassic boundaries, con-sistent with other similar data, which further support the notion that geological time boundariesare associated with mass extinction and subsequent rejuvenation.     

Progress of Tracing Fossil Fuel CO2 by Radiocarbon in Chinese Cities

The main cause of increase in atmospheric CO₂ concentration is the carbon emissions from fossil fuel combustions and so on. Cities are regarded as the hot spots of carbon emissions. On the basis of obtaining the levels and spatial-temporal variation characteristics of atmospheric fossil fuel CO₂ （CO_2ff）， we can provide scientific data for government policy-making and international negotiations on carbon reductions. In the recent ten years， some important progresses have been achieved in the study of tracing urban atmospheric CO_2ff using ¹⁴C by Chinese scientists. The variation characteristics of urban CO_2ff at different temporal and spatial scales were obtained through the analysis of ¹⁴C in air， tree ring and annual plant samples. Our results show that the northern cities are the key points to reduce carbon emissions， and that the CO_2ff emissions can be reduced simultaneously by controlling atmospheric pollutant emissions， indicating a synergistic emission reduction. It was found that CO_2ff in Xi'an was mainly from local coal-burning emissions with the use of improved WRF-CHEM model and δ¹³C. Finally， the yearly CO_2ff traced by tree-ring ¹⁴C in Xi'an showed similar trends and amplitudes with the statistical data of carbon emissions， which indicates that the ¹⁴C tracing method and statistical method can be mutually validated to ensure the reliability of the data. In order to promote the ¹⁴C trace study to serve the national carbon emission reduction task， we suggest that the urban atmospheric Δ¹⁴CO₂ observation network should be established as soon as possible， and that this study should be enhanced with more scientists involved in it and more financial resources to support it.     

Raman Quantitative Measurements for Carbon Isotopic Composition in CO2-Rich Fluid Inclusion: A Preliminary Study

Carbon dioxide is a common and important component in fluid inclusions. Because carbon isotopic ratio of CO₂ in fluid inclusion can provide geochemical characteristics of source rocks, many works have been conducted to measure the carbon isotopic ratio (¹³C/¹²C) of CO₂. In general, carbon isotopic composition (¹³C/¹²C) of CO₂ fluid inclusions are measured by mass spectroscopy. However, mass spectroscopy is a destructive analytical technique, and can not be applied to measure single inclusion. Raman spectroscopy is an efficient non-contact and non-destructive method, and has been widely employed in many research fields. In fact, due to the difference of carbon atom mass, the Femi resonance of ¹³CO₂ is lower than that of ¹²CO₂, so they can be identified in Raman spectrum. In principle, the carbon isotopic composition (¹³CO₂/¹²CO₂) in CO₂ is closely related to the Raman intensity ratio between ¹³CO₂ and ¹²CO₂ (I+13/I+12). Therefore, Raman spectroscopy can theoretically be utilized to measure the carbon isotopic composition (¹³CO₂/¹²CO₂) of CO₂. However, this method is seriously hampered by the poor measurement accuracy and precision. In this study, based on the theoretical analysis, and in combination with previous Raman studies on carbon isotopic composition in CO₂, a preliminary research on Raman quantitative measurement for carbon isotopic composition in CO₂ was carried out.     

Paleoclimate of some Permo-Triassic carbonates of Malaysia

Four hundred thin-sections of Permian (Chuping and Summalayang Limestones) and Triassic (Kodiang Limestone) carbonates of Malaysia were studied, mainly to interpret probable climatic zones during their formation.

Chuping Limestone is rich in skeletal grains and intraclasts formed in shallow, high-energy environments. Original mineralogy of skeletal grains and early diagenetic cements were chiefly calcites with some aragonite. The faunal assemblage is similar to that of subpolar carbonates. The brachiopods are characterized by heavy δ¹³C and light δ¹⁸O and these values lie in the same field as an Early Permian fauna from eastern Australia. The δ¹⁸O values of fauna show unrealistic temperatures because the fauna has equilibrated with melt waters. However, calculated original δ¹⁸O values of the fauna from δ¹³C indicate temperatures ranging from 2 to 13°C with δ_w of +1.2. These features reflect cool-temperate (to ?subpolar) conditions.

Summalayang Limestone is rich in fusulinids and was deposited in bar to shelf environments. Fusulinids are often filled with fine, equigranular sparry calcite. Early diagenetic origin of these cements is indicated by erosion of cements during transportation and also by the cross-cutting relationship of veins with cements. These cements were originally Mg calcites. The foramol faunal assemblage, and predominantly Mg calcite mineralogy of both fauna and cements, reflect temperate climate.

Kodiang Limestone was deposited in peritidal environments. This limestone formation has all the characteristic features of modern, warm, tropical carbonates such as chlorozoan assemblage, diverse non-skeletal grains, abundant early diagenetic dolomites and predominance of aragonitic fauna, non-skeletal grains and cements.

The formation of temperate carbonates during the Permian suggests that Malaysia was probably part of Gondwanaland.     

桂中晚二叠世碳酸盐岩碳同位素的地层学意义

广西合山马滩等地的上二叠统剖面碳酸盐岩碳同位素在吴家坪阶和长兴阶界线处表现出明显的降低现象,吴家坪阶石灰岩样品δ１３Ｃ值一般都高于３．２‰,而长兴阶的样品其δ１３Ｃ值多低于３．２‰,因此,碳同位素组成的差异有可能作为吴家坪阶和长兴阶的同位素地层界线。这种同位素降低现象可能与澳洲、南非、印度等地大规模聚煤作用的中止有关。聚煤作用的中止以及以前埋藏的泥炭和煤层在遭受构造抬升和氧化后会向大气中释放出大量富含轻同位素１２Ｃ的ＣＯ_２,从而使得与大气平衡的海水及在其中沉淀出的碳酸盐岩的δ１３Ｃ值降低。     

普定岩溶水-碳循环模拟试验场水体双碳同位素特征(δ13C-Δ14C)与碳足迹

河流输送到海洋的溶解无机碳(DIC)和有机碳(OC)受自然和人为双重因素的影响。了解DIC和OC的年龄、来源和转化,有助于掌握全球碳收支和提高现在以及未来自然和人类对河流碳循环影响的估算精度。本研究以普定岩溶水-碳循环试验场泉(地下水)-池(地表水)耦联系统为研究对象,利用双碳同位素(¹³C- ¹⁴C)方法,结合水生植物生长和传统水文地球化学特征,揭示了地下水-地表水系统中DIC和颗粒有机碳(POC)的来源及其转化机制。研究发现:(1)泉-池系统中DIC和POC的Δ¹⁴C具有相同的变化趋势,泉水中Δ¹⁴C值低于池水中Δ¹⁴C值,反映后者可能有“较年轻”的CO₂的加入;(2)池水水化学和碳同位素变化由土地利用类型和池中水生植物共同控制;(3)池水中颗粒有机碳(POC)浓度明显高于泉水,且其Δ¹⁴C值表现出与沉水植物和DIC的一致性(表观年龄均为3 200900 a),说明池水POC主要源于池中水生植物光合作用利用了碳酸盐风化产生的老碳(DIC),使新形成的有机质在表观年龄上“偏老”;(4)池水水体内源有机碳对水体POC的贡献在75%以上,内源有机碳通量(以C计)在250 t·km^-2·a^-1至660 t·km^-2·a^-1之间,相对于其他土地利用类型,草地对应的地表水系统具有最大的内源有机碳占比和通量,指示了沉水植物控制型浅水水体初级生产对有机碳循环的重要作用。综上,我们认为在岩溶区通过土地利用调整来调控水生植物群落对于增加碳汇具有重要潜力。     

广西钦州石炭-二叠纪深海硅质岩的锶同位素组成及其地质意义

报道了广西钦州海槽早石炭世-早二叠世深水硅质岩的锶同位素测定结果和经年代校正后的87Sr/86Sr初始值,建立了锶同位素演化曲线;通过与同时代上扬子地区台地相碳酸盐岩87Sr/86Sr比值和演化曲线的对比,研究了二者的异同和造成差异的原因。深水硅质岩和同期台地相碳酸盐岩的锶同位素演化曲线在总体特征上具有一定的相似性,反映海平面变化对其影响的一致性。玄武岩喷发等局部事件和硅质岩中无法回避的陆源碎屑的影响是造成87Sr/86Sr比值和演化曲线差异的主要原因。硅质岩锶同位素演化曲线显示,海平面上升发生于早石炭世,在晚石炭世早期达到最大值,晚石炭世晚期,海平面有所下降,在其后的早二叠世,海平面再次上升。
