简介:镁同位素示踪深部碳循环研究在过去一年取得了很大进展。这些进展包括蚀变洋壳、沉积物、深海橄榄岩和再循环榴辉岩的Mg同位素组成,具有EM—I和HIMU同位素特征的低δ^26Mg玄武岩成因,低δ^26Mg玄武岩熔融p-t条件的Mg-Sr同位素制约,Mg同位素揭示的大陆岩石圈地幔的碳酸盐交代作用,特提斯洋俯冲板块导致的深部碳循环,和富Na碳酸盐岩浆的Mg同位素分异。然而仍有许多重要科学问题尚不清楚,包括:(1)如何区分再循环沉积碳酸盐岩和再循环碳酸盐化榴辉岩对地幔Mg同位素的影响?(2)板块俯冲过程中Mg同位素地球化学行为和为什么岛弧玄武岩没有低δ^26Mg特征?(3)再循环碳在地幔的储存部位及存留时间?(4)普通碳酸盐岩浆的Mg同位素如何分异?(5)如何示踪那些不含Mg或含Mg很少的再循环碳酸盐,如方解石、文石、菱铁矿?这些问题指明了未来的重要研究领域。
