摘    要:冷水珊瑚也称为深水珊瑚, 在生物多样性、生态资源和科研价值等方面具有重要意义。文章对采自南海北部冷泉区的冷水珊瑚骨骼碎屑进行测定, 鉴定出冷水珊瑚2个种(Crispatotrochus sp.1和Crispatotrochus sp.2), 以及4个属Balanophyllia (Balanophyllia)、Balanophyllia (Eupsammia)、LochmaeotrochusEnallopsammia]。测定的冷水珊瑚的δ13C为-7.36‰~-1.15‰, δ18O为-1.38‰~3.67‰, 与全球冷水珊瑚碳氧同位素组成相似, 但明显不同于南海暖水珊瑚、冷泉碳酸盐岩及低温热液成因碳酸盐岩的碳氧同位素组成。

关 键 词:冷水珊瑚  冷泉渗漏  碳氧同位素  海底底流  南海北部

Abstract:Cold-water corals, also known as deep-water corals, are newly found ecological resources with high biological diversity and attract scientific research on environmental changes. In this study, we investigated cold-water corals retrieved from the cold seep area in the northern South China Sea. We identified two species (Crispatotrochus sp.1, Crispatotrochus sp.2) and four genera Balanophyllia (Balanophyllia), Balanophyllia (Eupsammia), Lochmaeotrochus, and Enallopsammia]. Stable carbon and oxygen isotopic analyses revealed that the δ13C and δ18O of cold-water corals were -7.36‰ ~ -1.15‰ and -1.38‰ ~ 3.67‰, respectively. The δ13C and δ18O results were close to the carbon and oxygen isotopic values of cold-water corals in other parts of the world, but were quite different from those of warm-water corals, cold-seep carbonate rocks and low-temperature hydrothermal carbonate rocks. This research discovered cold-water corals in a cold seep region of the northern South China Sea. This discovery is important for the studies on environmental effects of deep-water currents and of cold springs in the region.
Keywords:deep-water corals  hydrocarbon seepage  C-O isotope  bottom current  northern South China Sea
