متن کاملSulfate burial constraints on the Phanerozoic sulfur cycle.
The sulfur cycle influences the respiration of sedimentary organic matter, the oxidation state of the atmosphere and oceans, and the composition of seawater. However, the factors governing the major sulfur fluxes between seawater and sedimentary reservoirs remain incompletely understood. Using macrostratigraphic data, we quantified sulfate evaporite burial fluxes through Phanerozoic time. Appro...
متن کاملThe Evolution of the Sulfur Cycle
There are 2 principal avenues of inquiry relevant to reconstructing the history of the sulfur cycle. One avenue relies on the comparison of molecular sequences derived from biologically essential proteins and genetic material. Most sequence information is available from the small subunit of the rRNA molecule and from these sequences a Tree of Life emerges providing a reconstruction of the evolu...
متن کاملCenozoic evolution of the sulfur cycle: Insight from oxygen isotopes in marine sulfate
We report new data on oxygen isotopes in marine sulfate (d18OSO4), measured in marine barite (BaSO4), over the Cenozoic. The d18OSO4 varies by 6x over the Cenozoic, with major peaks 3, 15, 30 and 55 Ma. The d 18OSO4 does not co-vary with the d 34SSO4, emphasizing that different processes control the oxygen and sulfur isotopic composition of sulfate. This indicates that temporal changes in the d...
متن کاملPhanerozoic cycles of sedimentary carbon and sulfur.
A reservoir model of a Recent steady-state sedimentary system in which the reduced sulfur and oxidized sulfur reservoirs were coupled with the oxidized carbon and reduced carbon reservoirs was constructed. The time curve of the sulfur isotope ratios of the sedimentary sulfate reservoir was used to drive the model back to the beginning of Cambrian time (600 million years ago), producing the rese...
