摘要: 为了研究长江古河谷地区早中全新世沉积物的碳埋藏速率及来源,进行了ZK1孔沉积物总有机碳(TOC)、总氮(TN)及δ13C的测定,结合AMS14C(植物碎屑、贝壳)测年、有孔虫及粒度数据,分析了长江古河谷碳埋藏的时空分布特征与TOC来源。采用历史地理学、沉积地质学结合测年数据进行了年代地层划分,自下而上分别为U1潮汐河道、U2河口湾、U3潮流砂脊和U4前三角洲。沉积物受到水深、径流、河口余环流、潮流、波浪、风暴与再矿化等作用或因素影响,TOC平均值为0.41%,低于长江河口表层沉积物基准值0.46%。ZK1碳埋藏通量(TOCBF)介于7.4~110.5 g/(m2·a)之间,差异较大。TOCBF数值主要受控于沉积速率。δ13C与TOC/TN(C/N) 投影点结果表明,TOC来源表现为多源特征,且整体表现为偏陆源特征。C/N与δ13C线性拟合相关性高,适合采用C/N与δ13C进行TOC来源的定量分析。基于C/N与δ13C采用三端源模型进行了TOC来源分析。U2、U3沉积期处于全新世大暖期,其海源碳与陆源碳较U1、U2沉积单元高,这主要与海洋、陆地初级生产力的提高有关。ZK1海洋浮游植物对TOC的贡献量平均值为31%。河口浮游植物对TOC的贡献量平均值为31%。陆源有机碳对TOC的贡献量平均值为38%。整体来看,陆源有机碳的贡献量大于河口浮游植物与海洋浮游植物的贡献量,这与图解法的分析结果基本一致。Abstract: In order to study the carbon burial rates and sources of early to middle Holocene sediments in the Changjiang River palaeo-valley area, the determination of total organic carbon (TOC), total nitrogen (TN) and δ13C of sediments from ZK1 hole was carried out, and the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics and TOC sources of carbon burial in the Changjiang River palaeo-valley were analyzed by combining AMS14C (plant debris, shells) dating, foraminiferal and grain size data. Using a combination of historical geography and sedimentary geology combined with AMS14C data, the chronostratigraphic classification was carried out from bottom to top as tidal channel (U1), estuarine bay (U2), tidal sand ridge (U3), and pre-delta (U4). Sediments were influenced by the effects or factors of water depth, runoff, estuarine after-circulation, tidal currents, waves, storms and remineralization, and the mean value of TOC was 0.41%, which was lower than the surface layer of the Changjiang River Estuary. The ZK1 hole carbon burial flux (TOCBF) ranged from 7.4 g/(m2·a) to 110.5 g/(m2·a), with large variations. The TOCBF values were mainly controlled by the sedimentation rate. The results of δ13C and TOC/TN (C/N) projection points indicate that there are TOC sources with multi-source characteristics, and the overall performance is partial to terrestrial sources. The linear fit correlation between C/N and δ13C was high, which allowed the quantitative analysis of organic matter sources using C/N and δ13C. The organic carbon source analysis was carried out based on C/N and δ13C using a three-terminal source model. The U2 and U3 depositional periods were in the Holocene Great Warm Period, and the sea-derived and land-derived carbon was higher than that of the U1 and U2 depositional units, which was mainly related to the increase of marine and terrestrial primary productivity. The mean contribution of marine phytoplankton to total organic carbon was 31% in ZK1 hole. The mean contribution of estuarine phytoplankton to total organic carbon was 31%; the mean contribution of terrestrial organic carbon to total organic carbon was 38%. Overall, the contribution of terrestrial organic carbon was greater than that of estuarine phytoplankton and marine phytoplankton, which was basically consistent with the analysis results of the graphical method.
