摘要

显生宙海水的氧同位素组成（δ 18o）已被广泛研究，但前寒武纪海水的δ 18o值仍未得到充分约束，是否明显低于显生宙海水的δ 18o值仍在争论中。为了解决这个问题，我们分析了华北克拉通灰岩的块状同位素，重建了中元古代海水温度和δ 18o值。结果表明，中元古代海水温度为26.9°±0.4°C， δ 18o值为- 6.3±0.2 / mil（相对于标准平均海水）。这一δ 18o估算值与先前地球化学模拟、海洋氧化铁和氧同位素集合的推断一致，支持了中元古代海水同位素比显生宙海水轻的假设。这些发现对中元古代地球的古气候和海水成分的演变提供了新的认识。

Oxygen isotope composition of Mesoproterozoic (~1360 Ma) seawater constrained by clumped isotopes of North China limestones

The oxygen isotope composition (δ 18 O) of Phanerozoic seawater has been widely investigated, but the δ 18 O values of Precambrian seawater remain poorly constrained, with ongoing debate over whether they were substantially lower than those of Phanerozoic seawater. To address this question, we analyzed the clumped isotopes of limestones from the North China Craton to reconstruct Mesoproterozoic seawater temperature and δ 18 O values. Our results indicate that the Mesoproterozoic seawater had a temperature of 26.9° ± 0.4°C and a δ 18 O value of −6.3 ± 0.2 per mil (relative to standard mean ocean water). This δ 18 O estimate aligns with previous inferences from geochemical modeling, marine iron oxides, and oxygen isotope ensembles, supporting the hypothesis that Mesoproterozoic seawater was isotopically lighter than its Phanerozoic counterpart. These findings provide insights into the Earth’s paleoclimate and the evolution of seawater composition during the Mesoproterozoic era.
