Calibration of the carbonate ‘clumped isotope’ paleothermometer for otoliths     

Prosenjit Ghosh  John Eiler  Richard F. Feeney 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》2007,71(11):2736-2744

Paleothermometry is an essential tool for understanding past changes in climate. The ‘carbonate clumped isotope thermometer’ is a temperature proxy related to ordering of ¹³C and ¹⁸O in the carbonate lattice (based on measurements of ¹³C¹⁸O¹⁶O in CO₂ produced by acid digestion of carbonate). This thermometer has been previously calibrated for inorganic calcite and aragonitic corals [Ghosh P., Adkins J., Affek H., Balta B., Guo W. F., Schauble E. A., Schrag D., and Eiler J. M. (2006) C-13-O-18 bonds in carbonate minerals: a new kind of paleothermometer. Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta70 (6), 1439-1456]. Here we determine the relationship between growth temperatures of aragonitic fish otoliths and abundances of ¹³C¹⁸O¹⁶O produced by acid digestion of those otoliths. Our calibration is based on analyses of otoliths from six species from four genera of modern fish sampled from a latitudinal transect of the Atlantic Ocean between 54° S and 65° N, plus one species from the tropical western Pacific. The temperatures at which fish otoliths precipitated were estimated by the mean temperature in the waters in which they lived, averaged over their estimated lifetimes. Estimated growth temperatures of our samples vary between 2 and 25 °C. Our results show that the abundance of ¹³C¹⁸O¹⁶O in CO₂ produced by acid digestion of fish otolith aragonite is a function of growth temperature, following the relationship: , where Δ₄₇ is the enrichment, in per mil, of ¹³C¹⁸O¹⁶O in CO₂ relative to the amount expected for a stochastic (random) distribution of isotopes among all CO₂ isotopologues, and T is the temperature in Kelvin. This relationship closely approaches that previously documented for inorganic calcite and aragonitic coral (Ghosh et al., 2006).  相似文献   

Microscale Simultaneous Measurement of Carbon and Nitrogen Isotopes on Natural Diamond     

Akizumi Ishida  Kouki Kitajima  Ko Hashizume  Michael J. Spicuzza  Alexander Zaitsev  Daniel J. Schulze  John W. Valley 《Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research》2023,47(3):569-578

Simultaneous analysis of carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios by SIMS was applied for the first-time to a natural diamond from the Kelsey Lake kimberlite, State Line Distinct, Colorado (UWD-1). This in situ procedure is faster, reduces sample size for analysis, and measures both isotope ratios from a single ~ 10 μm diameter pit, a critical advantage for zoned diamonds. The carbon isotope ratio (expressed as δ¹³C_VPDB) of the bulk UWD-1 crystal, determined by the conventional combustion method in the present study, is -5.9‰ ± 0.2‰ (VPDB, 2s). Nitrogen mass fraction ([N]) and isotope ratio (expressed as δ¹⁵N_Air) were determined by stepwise combustion and gas-source mass-spectrometry, resulting in 553 ± 64 μg g^-1 and -6.7‰ ± 1.1‰ (Air, 2s), respectively. Secondary ions of ¹²C₂^-, ¹²C¹³C^-, ¹²C¹⁴N^-, and ¹²C¹⁵N^- were simultaneously measured by SIMS using three Faraday cups and one electron multiplier. The spot-to-spot reproducibility of δ¹³C and δ¹⁵N values for the UWD-1 (178 spots on sixteen chips, 10 μm spots), were 0.3‰ and 1.6‰, respectively (2s). While ¹²C¹⁴N^-/¹²C₂^- ratios, which are an indicator for [N], varied up to 12% among these sixteen chips, such variation did not correlate with either δ¹³C or δ¹⁵N values. We propose that UWD-1 is a suitable reference sample for microscale in situ analysis of δ¹³C and δ¹⁵N values in diamond samples.  相似文献

为了探索分支河流体系河网分布规律,为创建储层建模训练图像提供知识库信息。利用Google Earth、Global Mapper、91卫图助手等现代地理信息软件,系统测量了现代格尔木河流扇表面河道分叉特征,应用Horton定律和分形方法建立了河流扇的河网形态模型。结果表明：①格尔木河流扇从顶点到入湖段共识别出26级河道,882个节点和2162个河道段,泉线上、下的河道表现出不同的河网形态;②泉线上部共发育64个节点,每级河道数目增长是上一级河道的RB=1.8900倍,每级河道平均长度是下一级河道的RL=1.0095倍,即河网形态特征参数RB=1.8900和RL=1.0095;泉线下部共发育818个节点,每级河道数目增长是上一级河道的RB=1.0279倍,每级河道平均长度是下一级河道的RL=0.9899倍,即河网形态特征参数是RB=1.0279和RL=0.9899;③河网形态特征参数受坡度影响变化较大,坡度较大则河网形态特征参数较大,坡度较小则河网形态特征参数较小。河网形态特征参数定量表征促进了分支河流体系沉积学发展,为开展陆相盆地储层建模和砂体预测提供了新的知识库信息  相似文献
