Sedimentary sulfur isotopes and Neoarchean ocean oxygenation
Abrupt disappearance of mass-independent fractionation of sulfur isotopes (MIF-S) from the geologic record and an apparent ingrowth in seawater sulfate around 2.45 billion years ago (Ga) signal the first large-scale oxygenation of the atmosphere [the Great Oxygenation Event (GOE)]. Pre-GOE O2 production is evident from multiple other terrestrial and marine proxies, but oceanic O2 concentrations...
متن کاملPathways for Neoarchean pyrite formation constrained by mass-independent sulfur isotopes.
It is generally thought that the sulfate reduction metabolism is ancient and would have been established well before the Neoarchean. It is puzzling, therefore, that the sulfur isotope record of the Neoarchean is characterized by a signal of atmospheric mass-independent chemistry rather than a strong overprint by sulfate reducers. Here, we present a study of the four sulfur isotopes obtained usi...
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...
متن کاملInterstellar Sulfur Isotopes and Stellar Oxygen Burning
line survey has been made to study interstellar 32 S= 34 S and 34 S= 33 S ratios from the galactic disk. The four CS isotopomers were detected in 20 star forming regions with galactocentric distances between 3 and 9 kpc. From a comparison of line velocities, the C 33 S J=2{1 rest frequency is 250 kHz below the value given in the Lovas (1992) catalog. Taking 12 C= 13 C ratios from Wilson & Rood ...
متن کاملNeoarchean carbonate-associated sulfate records positive Δ³³S anomalies.
Mass-independent fractionation of sulfur isotopes (reported as Δ(33)S) recorded in Archean sedimentary rocks helps to constrain the composition of Earth's early atmosphere and the timing of the rise of oxygen ~2.4 billion years ago. Although current hypotheses predict uniformly negative Δ(33)S for Archean seawater sulfate, this remains untested through the vast majority of Archean time. We appl...
