A Cenozoic Record of Deep Oceanic Zn Isotopic Composition in Ferromanganese Crusts
The zinc (Zn) isotopic composition (δ66Zn) of the deep ocean (>1000 m) can provide insights into the carbon cycle, the biological pump, and hydrothermal activity. However, we have an incomplete view of the temporal and spatial evolution of deep-ocean Zn isotopes. Here, we present new δ66Zn values of Fe-Mn crusts from the Pacific Ocean, which we used to reconstruct the evolution of deep-ocean δ66Zn for the Cenozoic. Our results suggest that the δ66Zn values remain stable in the deep Pacific Ocean at around ~ 0.5‰ through the Cenozoic. Our results limit the extent of change in organic zinc burial through the Cenozoic. However, given uncertainties in the global mass balance and analytical error, variations of roughly 20% in organic zinc burial are still possible.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Science (AJS), founded in 1818 by Benjamin Silliman, is the oldest scientific journal in the United States that has been published continuously. The Journal is devoted to geology and related sciences and publishes articles from around the world presenting results of major research from all earth sciences. Readers are primarily earth scientists in academia and government institutions.
