Mass-independent sulfur isotope fractionation during photochemistry of sulfur dioxide
Mass-independent sulfur isotope signatures are observed in Archean and early Paleoproterozoic sedimentary sulfate and sulfide minerals, and provide the most robust constraints on early atmospheric oxygen levels. Smaller mass-independent sulfur isotope anomalies are observed in ice cores and interpreted as a tracer of stratospheric volcanic loading. Photochemistry of sulfur dioxide (SO 2) has be...
متن کاملPhysiology of Multiple Sulfur Isotope Fractionation during Microbial Sulfate Reduction
Microbial sulfate reduction (MSR) utilizes sulfate as an electron acceptor and produces sulfide that is depleted in heavy isotopes of sulfur relative to starting sulfate. The fractionation of S-isotopes is commonly used to trace the biogeochemical cycling of sulfur in nature, but a mechanistic understanding of factors that control the range of isotope fractionation is still lacking. This thesis...
متن کاملQuestions regarding Precambrian sulfur isotope fractionation.
The discovery by Farquhar et al. (1) of mass-independent isotope fractionation of S and S in rocks formed more than ;2 billion years ago (Ga), but not in younger rocks, has boosted the theory postulating a dramatic change from an anoxic to an oxygen-rich atmosphere about 2 Ga. That is because the only known natural process that may cause mass-independent fractionation of both S and S involves a...
متن کاملMultiple Sulfur Isotope Fractionations in Biological Systems: a Case Study with Sulfate Reducers and Sulfur Disproportionators
Multiple sulfur isotope measurements of sulfur compounds associated with dissimilatory sulfate reduction, elemental sulfur disproportionation and sulfite disproportionation indicate that different types of metabolic processes impart different multiple isotope signatures. An established network for sulfate reduction was used previously to explain the multiple isotope variability. Here, we revisi...
متن کاملSulfur and oxygen isotope insights into sulfur cycling in shallow-sea hydrothermal vents, Milos, Greece
Shallow-sea (5 m depth) hydrothermal venting off Milos Island provides an ideal opportunity to target transitions between igneous abiogenic sulfide inputs and biogenic sulfide production during microbial sulfate reduction. Seafloor vent features include large (>1 m(2)) white patches containing hydrothermal minerals (elemental sulfur and orange/yellow patches of arsenic-sulfides) and cells of su...
