中国西部、东北地区湖泊沉积物中碳酸盐碳、氧和有机碳同位素组成及与环境的响应

湖泊沉积物中碳酸盐碳、氧和有机质碳同位素组成受湖泊环境介质的控制,可以有效地指示环境演化过程。通过对中国东北和西部青藏高原、新疆现代湖泊表层沉积物的碳酸盐的碳、氧同位素组成(δ13C、δ18O)、有机碳同位素组成(δ13Corg),以及有机质含量(TOC)、C/N分析研究,发现当湖泊中以浮游植物来源有机母质为主时,其δ13Corg为-30‰~-23‰;以硅藻为主的藻类来源时,δ13Corg为-30‰~-16‰;以挺水植物来源,δ13Corg为-30‰~-24‰;沉水植物来源,δ13Corg为-24‰~-16‰;以水生植物和陆生植物来源为主时,δ13Corg为-30‰~-20‰;当以陆生植物来源为主时,其δ13Corg为-26‰~-24‰。当西北地区半封闭湖泊表层沉积物中碳酸盐含量大于30%时,湖泊表现出δ13C、δ18O之间较好的正相关性,TOC主要以内源有机质来源为主。     

14ka B.P. 以来巴里坤湖区有机碳同位素记录及古气候变化研究

通过有机碳同位素（δ13Corg.）,磁化率和粒度的测定和分析,结合光释光年龄标定,对新疆巴里坤湖区滨湖相沉积物14ka B.P. 以来 δ13Corg. 值变化的影响因素及其反映的气候特征进行了研究。结果表明：在巴里坤湖区植被类型主要以C3植被为主,干湿变化是导致δ13Corg. 值波动的主要因素,在末次冰消期至早全新世阶段（14.0~8.4ka B.P.）,巴里坤湖区周围冰川尚未融化,剖面δ13Corg. 值最为偏正,在-22‰ 到-21‰ 之间变化,暗示剖面处在干旱的气候条件下; 进入全新世后,随着巴里坤山冰川的融化,湖区湿度增加,同位素值持续偏负,达到-23.5‰,同时中值粒径和磁化率同步降低; 在中全新世阶段（7.2~5.0ka B.P.）出现高湖面,同位素值达到-24‰ 左右,为剖面同位素值最低阶段; 中晚全新世阶段（5.0~1.5ka B.P.）δ13Corg. 值开始逐渐偏正,表明气候开始变干; 1.5ka B.P. 至今的 δ13Corg. 值则是在-24‰ ~-23‰ 间频繁波动,反映了该时段气候的不稳定性。     

植物-土壤有机质转化过程中的碳同位素组成变化

土壤有机质的碳同位素信息反映了上部的植被和气候状况，但植物体在被微生物分解、利用、转变为土壤有机质的过程中会产生碳同位素的分馏。本研究探了高山草甸和典型草原两种不同气候、生态环境条件下，植物转变为土壤有机质过程中的碳同位素组成变化。结果显示：在太白山高海拔地区的4个采样点，表土的δ13Corg值均随深度的增加而逐渐偏正，到距离地表10-15cm左右时，土壤的δ13Corg值基本稳定。经过长期分解稳定以后的土壤有机质的δ13C值要比其源植被约偏正1.65‰-2.27‰左右，平均约偏正1.9‰左右。在内蒙草原样地的4个采样点，亦表现出与太白山相似的变化：土壤样品的δ13Corg值从地表开始，随着深度的增加而逐渐偏正，到约距离地表10cm左右深度后，δ13Corg值逐渐达到稳定，在距地表10-16cm间基本稳定不变。在该深度土壤的δ13Corg值比它上面生长的植物的δ13C值要分别偏正1.3‰、1.4‰、1.4‰、1.2‰，4块样地平均偏正约1.3‰左右。本研究表明，在运用土壤有机碳同位素反淀古植被和古气候变化时，应考虑到不同气候、生态环境中植物转化为有机质过程中的碳同位素分馏影响。     

淮南煤田张集煤矿煤层中稳定有机碳同位素分布特征

通过对淮南煤田张集煤矿9个煤层的33个煤样稳定有机碳同位素的分析,研究了碳同位素值(δ13C)在煤层中的分布特征和变化趋势.研究表明:张集煤矿煤的δ13C值范围为-23.44‰-25.37‰,平均-24.18‰,不同煤层的δ13C值范围不同,为煤层识别和对比提供了新的依据;自下而上由4-1煤至11-2煤层碳同位素均值呈波动变化,在6煤和9-1煤处分别达到极小值和极大值,这种差异反应了不同煤层的成煤植物生长时期古环境的变化,特别是大气中CO2和温度的变化,与沉积环境也存在着相关性.     

新疆罗北洼地湖相沉积物有机碳同位素的变化序列及其古环境意义

测定了新疆罗布泊地区湖相沉积物CK-2钻孔样品的总有机碳含量（TOC）及其同位素组成、碳酸盐含量和C/N比值等环境代用指标,以及石膏矿物的质谱-铀系年龄。测试结果表明,20～9kaB.P.期间沉积物δ13Corg.在-23.4‰～-16.1‰之间波动且阶段性明显,与TOC呈现良好的相关关系,整体变化趋势同南极Dome C冰芯中记录的全球大气CO2浓度一致;C/N比值表明有机碳来源主要是陆生高等植物。因此大气CO2浓度变化是影响20～9kaB.P.期间罗布泊湖相沉积物δ13Corg.值变化的主导因素,周围山体上C3/C4植物相对生物量的变化则是另一重要因素。依据δ13Corg.的变化序列将此时间段湖区古环境的演化分成6个阶段:20.0～14.1kaB.P.期间受到末次盛冰期的影响,气温偏低,湖水丰沛;14.1～13.3kaB.P.是一个气候不稳定期,冷暖波动较频繁,但以暖为趋势;13.3～12.8kaB.P.期间经历了一段冷期,于12.8kaB.P.结束了末次冰期,随后气候开始转暖至11.8kaB.P.;其后气温再次变冷并维持到10kaB.P.;最后从10kaB.P.进入全新世暖期。δ13Corg.序列明显向偏负方向变化,表明该地区变暖的趋势相当明显。罗布泊地区日益干旱化是全球气候变化的结果,尤其是受到全球CO2浓度的不断升高所制约。     

珠江三角洲陈村钻孔剖面沉积特征及有机碳同位素古环境意义

陈村剖面位于佛山市陈村镇。AMS14C及OSL测年结果显示,剖面自晚更新世中晚期以来开始沉积,结束于全新世晚期,由老至新经历了河流相—河口湾相—三角洲相沉积环境。根据有机碳同位素曲线变化特征,结合孢粉、有孔虫等鉴定结果及沉积环境综合分析,将剖面划分为4个演化阶段:1晚更新世,34.15~24.5ka BP,属河流相沉积环境,δ13Corg平均值为-28.13‰,对应MIS 3期冷—稍湿气候,期间小幅波动;2晚更新世—全新世早期,24.5~9ka BP,属河流相沉积环境,δ13Corg平均值为-29.8‰,对应MIS 2期干冷气候及全新世早期温—干气候,YD事件得以记录;3全新世早—中期,9~6.7ka BP,属于河口湾—三角洲相沉积环境,δ13Corg平均值为-27.97‰,变化幅度小,对应暖—湿气候;4全新世中—晚期,6.7~0.44ka BP,属于三角洲相沉积环境,δ13Corg平均值为-26.94‰,变化幅度大,冷暖变化显著,气候特征为热湿—偏凉—暖干。     

内蒙古大井矿床碳氧同位素组成及其成因意义

利用碳氧同位素组成可以很好地判别其形成的沉积环境.以内蒙古大井矿床为例,对该矿床16个菱铁矿样品进行碳、氧同位素分析,δ13CPDB变化范围为-1.8‰～-6.6‰,δ18OVPDB变化范围为-23.1‰～-17.3‰.根据矿物δ13C与δ18O值投影到δ13C-δ18O图解中,样品数据在图中的投点落入热水沉积区,说明其形成过程中具有热水沉积作用的发生.古温度可以通过T=16.998-4.52(δ18cO-δ18wO)+0.03(δ18cO-δ18wO)2计算,其形成时的温度平均值为117℃,比海底和湖底的温度要高得多,主要原因在于热水流体参与成矿.碳酸盐的成矿环境可以通过公式Z=2.048(δ13C+50)+0.498(δ18O+50)计算:Z值大于120,表示成矿环境为海水;如果Z值小于120,表示成矿环境为淡水或湖水.内蒙古大井矿床菱铁矿的Z值为100～114,结合区域地质背景,大井矿床形成的古环境为深水湖泊环境.通过对碳氧同位素的分析,结合成矿地质背景、矿床地质特征以及微量元素组成,认为在大井矿床成矿的早期阶段曾经发生过热液沉积作用,本次研究不仅有利于全面理解和认识大井矿床成矿过程的全貌,而且有益于对古湖相环境热液事件的探索.     

湖泊沉积物有机质碳同位素研究

自从Stuiver~([1])首次使用湖泊沉积物有机质碳同位素(δ~(13)Corg)恢复湖泊生产力变化以来,湖泊沉积物有机质碳同位素被广泛应用于古气候和古环境重建.     

老挝龙湖钾盐矿床沉积碳酸盐碳、氧同位素组成及其对成钾环境的初步指示

碳、氧同位素作为反映古沉积环境、成矿物源和水–岩反应等良好的稳定同位素指标,被广泛应用。通过对老挝龙湖钾盐矿区ZK309、ZK301、ZK311和ZK004四个钻孔农波组盐岩上覆泥岩碳、氧同位素组成的分析,讨论了盐岩上覆泥岩沉积的碳、氧同位素组成变化特征及其指示的沉积环境。经分析,所测碳、氧同位素基本代表了碳酸盐碳、氧同位素组成,初步推测这些碳酸盐均为当地自生,受后期改变很少,δ13C和δ18O平均值分别为-5.1‰和-4.6‰,其中δ13C值略高于一般陆相碳酸盐碳同位素最大值–5.69‰,δ18O值介于–2.71‰~–10.8‰之间,ZK309和ZK301钻孔碳、氧同位素相关系数均小于0.7,初步指示盐岩沉积之后沉积环境为陆相。δ13C值略高于–5.69‰,推测是后期盐岩层被淋滤,泥岩层受淋滤后的残余卤水影响的结果,这也解释了蒸发岩沉积层序异常(钾石盐覆盖于光卤石之上)的沉积特征。因此,在本研究中,大气水在泥岩碳、氧同位素的变化中扮演了重要角色。     

塔里木盆地西南依格孜牙组与卡拉塔尔组灰岩碳、氧同位素特征

对塔里木盆地西南依格孜牙组和卡拉塔尔组灰岩碳、氧同位素特征研究结果表明,上白垩统依格孜牙组δ13C(PDB标准)平均值为3.79‰,δ18O(PDB标准)平均值为-3.49‰;古近系卡拉塔尔组灰岩δ13C(PDB标准)平均值为2.09‰,δ18O(PDB标准)平均值为-4.54‰.与前人和世界其他剖面数据对比认为,碳同位素比较稳定,能够反映其沉积时的特征,而氧同位素变化较大,可能受沉积后作用的影响.依格孜牙组与卡拉塔尔组灰岩碳同位素具较大差异,主要受陆源环境(？)物质的注入,海水盐度、生物作用和古大气CO2含量等因素的影响.     

The terrestrial fauna of the Late Triassic Pant-y-ffynnon Quarry fissures,South Wales,UK and a new species of Clevosaurus (Lepidosauria: Rhynchocephalia)

Pant-y-ffynnon Quarry in South Wales yielded a rich cache of fossils in the early 1950s, including articulated specimens of new species (the small sauropodomorph dinosaur Pantydraco caducus and the crocodylomorph Terrestrisuchus gracilis), but no substantial study of the wider fauna of the Pant-y-ffynnon fissure systems has been published. Here, our overview of existing specimens, a few described but mostly undescribed, as well as freshly processed material, provides a comprehensive picture of the Pant-y-ffynnon palaeo-island of the Late Triassic. This was an island with a relatively impoverished fauna dominated by small clevosaurs (rhynchocephalians), including a new species, Clevosaurus cambrica, described here from a partially articulated specimen and isolated bones. The new species has a dental morphology that is intermediate between the Late Triassic Clevosaurus hudsoni, from Cromhall Quarry to the east, and the younger C. convallis from Pant Quarry to the west, suggesting adaptive radiation of clevosaurs in the palaeo-archipelago. The larger reptiles on the palaeo-island do not exceed 1.5?m in length, including a small carnivorous crocodylomorph, Terrestrisuchus, and a possible example of insular dwarfism in the basal dinosaur Pantydraco.     

The effect of water on accessory phase solubility in subaluminous and peralkaline granitic melts

The solubilities of columbite, tantalite, wolframite, rutile, zircon and hafnon were determined as a function of the water contents in peralkaline and subaluminous granite melts. All experiments were conducted at 1035 °C and 2 kbar and the water contents of the melts ranged from nominally dry to approximately 6 wt.% H₂O. Accessory phase solubilities are not affected by the water content of the peralkaline melt. By contrast, solubilities are affected by the water content of the subaluminous melt, where the solubilities of all the accessory phases examined increase with the water content of the melt, up to 2 wt.% H₂O. At higher water contents, solubilities are nearly constant. It can be concluded that water is not an important control of accessory phase solubility, although the water content will affect diffusivities of components in the melt, thus whether or not accessory phases will be present as restite material. The solubility behaviour in the subaluminous and peralkaline melts supports previous spectroscopic studies, which have observed differences in the coordination of high field strength elements in dry vs. wet subaluminous granitic glasses, but not for peralkaline granitic glasses. Lastly, the fact that wolframite solubility increases with increasing water content in the subaluminous melt suggests that tungsten dissolved as a hexavalent species.     

Quaternary stresses revealed by calcite twinning inversion: insights from observations in the Savonnières underground quarry (eastern France)

Calcite samples were extracted both from the rock matrix and the superficial coating of a karstified fault plane of an underground quarry, located in the eastern border of the Paris basin. The karstification is dated as Quaternary. Analysis of mechanical calcite twinning reveals that only the calcite matrix has also undergone a compression trending WNW that can be attributed to the Mio-Pliocene alpine collision. Both coating and matrix have undergone a strike-slip regime with σ₁ roughly trending north–south, that could correspond to the regional present-day state of stress, a strike-slip compression rather trending NNW, modified by local phenomena.
