As for carbon and oxygen, the β-factor formalism was used to develop algorithms and a database for the calculation of iron isotopic effects. According to the developed algorithm, the Gibbs energy <i>G</i>*(<i>P</i>, <i>T</i>) of formation of a rare isotopologue was calculated through the Gibbs energy of formation of the main isotopologue taking into account the value of the ⁵⁶Fe/⁵⁴Fe β-factor of this substance and the mass ratio of ⁵⁴Fe and ⁵⁶Fe isotopes. The approximation of ideal isotope mixture was used. The temperature dependence of the β-factor is unified in the form of a third-order polynomial by inverse even degrees of absolute temperature. Based on a critical analysis of currently available data on equilibrium isotopic factors obtained by different methods (elastic and inelastic γ-resonance scattering, isotope exchange experiments, and ab-initio calculations), the main result was obtained: for the first time, internally consistent database on iron β-factors of minerals and water complexes was developed. To develop the database, minerals and aqueous complexes for which the estimates of the equilibrium fractionation factors of iron isotopes obtained by different methods exist and consistent within the error of the methods have been identified: metallic iron (α-Fe), hematite, magnetite, siderite, pyrite, and the aqueous complexes <span>({text{Fe(III)(}}{{{text{H}}}_{{text{2}}}}{text{O)}}_{6}^{{3 + }})</span> and <span>({text{Fe(III)(}}{{{text{H}}}_{{text{2}}}}{text{O)}}_{6}^{{2 + }})</span>. The values of the iron β-factors for these minerals and aqueous complexes, accepted as reference ones, formed the “mainstay” of the developed database. Considering that the equilibrium isotopic shifts of iron between minerals and water complexes are estimated much more accurately within the framework of one method rather than the corresponding β-factors, the database was made consistent by linking the ln β values for minerals and water complexes to the reference ln β values. The application of the <i>GEOCHEQ_Isotope</i> software package to the closed carbonaceous hydrothermal system H₂O–CO₂–Fe₂O₃–FeO–CaO (<i>T</i> = 200°C, <i>P</i> = 16–50 bar) has shown the possibility of its use for the calculation of changes in mineral composition and isotopic effects on oxygen, carbon, and iron.</p>","PeriodicalId":12781,"journal":{"name":"Geochemistry International","volume":"62 10","pages":"1029 - 1056"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1134/S0016702924700538.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142714289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper presents data on the seasonal dynamics of dissolved CH₄ and CO₂ concentrations in the bog lake located in the ridge-lake complex of the Ilassky bog, a typical raised bog in the northern taiga of northwestern Russia, and results of analysis of the seasonal vertical distribution of greenhouse gases in the water column and the dynamics of surface concentrations with increased time resolution. The reasons for and patterns of their variability are considered, including those in relation to the characteristics of the bottom sediments. Concentrations of CH₄ and CO₂ in the water column vary during the year within wide ranges: from 4 to 652 µg/L and from 0.19 to 19 mg/L, respectively. CH₄ concentrations in the surface layer are at approximately the same level from May through August, with values measured in the water (5.9 to 11 µg/L) more than one hundred times higher than the concentrations in equilibrium with the atmosphere (0.04 to 0.05 µg/L), indicating a methane flux to the atmosphere. The CO₂ concentrations decrease throughout the open water period and become lower than the equilibrium concentrations with the atmosphere by the end of August, indicating a change in the flux direction and uptake of CO₂ from the atmosphere.

The lower sequence (previously not identified) is represented by a bimodal series: tholeiitic metabasalts and felsic metavolcanics, with subordinate metagraywackes. It has been formed for over 20 million years (from 2788 ± 5 to 2766 ± 9 Ma). Sm–Nd data obtained on basaltic metaandesites (Sm–Nd model age 2.86 Ga and ε_Nd = 2.92) indicate their mantle nature.
