摘要

摘要:
上泥盆统弗拉斯阶和法门阶界线附近发生了大规模的生物灭绝, 其起因被认为是植物登陆导致的陆地化学风化作用加强及其引起的海洋水体缺氧所致, 但其直接证据还比较缺乏。运用广西地区广泛发育的浅海碳酸盐岩中锶元素(Sr)和同位素(⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr)、铀钍比值(U/Th)记录, 探究了从中泥盆统到下石炭统的陆地化学风化速率及海水氧化还原条件的变化。研究结果表明, 在晚泥盆世(法门阶早期)陆地化学风化作用加强, 导致海水中Sr浓度升高, 及更富集重的Sr同位素组分; 低的U/Th比值也显示该时期水体缺氧严重, 海水中U元素被还原到沉积物中, 导致海水中的U浓度降低。陆地表面化学风化的加强对晚泥盆世海洋水体氧化还原条件的波动以及海洋生物的灭绝有重要影响。

Abstract:
The Frasnian-Famennian extinction in the late Devonian was one of the largest mass extinction during Earth's history, which was believed to be caused by the plant landing-indued intensification of terrestrial chemical weathering and the consequent hypoxia of marine water. However, direct evidence remains limited. Here, we apply strontium (Sr) concentrations and isotopes (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr) as well as uranium-thorium ratios (U/Th) of shallow marine carbonate rocks that are widely developed in the Guangxi area to explore the rate of continental chemical weathering and the redox condition of seawater from the middle devonian to lower Carboniferous. The results show that, the intensification of terrestrial chemical weathering in the late Devonian (early Famennian) caused the increase of Sr concentration and the enrichment of heavy Sr isotopes in seawater. The low U/Th ratio in carbonate also suggests that the water was highly hypoxia during this period. Uranium in seawater was reduced and deposited in sediments, resulting in the decrease of U concentration in seawater. The intensification of chemical weathering on land surface has a significant influence on the fluctuation of redox conditions and the extinction of marine organisms in the late Devonian.
