Temperatures of Aqueous Alteration on Cm Chondrite Parent Bodies Based on Carbonate ‘clumped-isotope’ Thermometry
Introduction: Aqueous alteration of primitive meteorites was among the earliest differentiation processes in the solar system [1], and a better understanding of it would help constrain and test models of the thermal and chemical evolution of planetesimals. One of the challenges is to establish the temperatures of alteration. Petrographic analysis of CM matrices [2] suggest their temperatures of...
متن کاملStatistical clumped isotope signatures
High precision measurements of molecules containing more than one heavy isotope may provide novel constraints on element cycles in nature. These so-called clumped isotope signatures are reported relative to the random (stochastic) distribution of heavy isotopes over all available isotopocules of a molecule, which is the conventional reference. When multiple indistinguishable atoms of the same e...
متن کاملClumped isotope measurements of small carbonate samples using a high-efficiency dual-reservoir technique.
RATIONALE The measurement of multiply substituted isotopologues of CO2 derived from carbonate has allowed the reconstruction of paleotemperatures from a single phase (CaCO3 ), circumventing uncertainty inherent in other isotopic paleothermometers. Traditional analytical techniques require relatively large amounts of carbonate (3-8 mg per replicate), which limits the applicability of the clumped...
متن کاملInfluence of climate change and uplift on Colorado Plateau paleotemperatures from carbonate clumped isotope thermometry
[1] The elevation history of Earth’s surface is key to understanding the geodynamic processes responsible for the rise of plateaus. We investigate the timing of Colorado Plateau uplift by estimating depositional temperatures of Tertiary lake sediments that blanket the plateau interior and adjacent lowlands using carbonate clumped isotope paleothermometry (a measure of the temperature‐dependent ...
متن کاملCarbonate clumped isotope constraints on Silurian ocean temperature and seawater Î ́18O
Much of what we know about the history of Earth’s climate derives from the chemistry of carbonate minerals in the sedimentary record. The oxygen isotopic compositions (dO) of calcitic marine fossils and cements have been widely used as a proxy for past seawater temperatures, but application of this proxy to deep geologic time is complicated by diagenetic alteration and uncertainties in the dO o...
