摘要

根据表层沉积物长链不饱和烯酮的不饱和度(Uk37指数)以及现代海洋0~30 m层平均温度(Sea Surface Temperature, SST),探讨在低温和高温海区利用Uk37指数重建上层古温度的合理性。同时,结合文献报道的南海上层水体中颗石藻(E. huxleyi,G. oceanicaG.ericsonii)细胞丰度的季节特征,探讨了沉积记录中Uk37指数与季节的对应性。结果表明:(1)在极端低温和高温海区(-0.6 ℃和28 ℃)Uk37指数仍是重建上层水体古温度的良好替代指标;(2)由于南海长链烯酮源生物——颗石藻的主要生长季节为冬季,因此,尽管南海表层沉积物中的Uk37指数与4个季节的SST均显著相关,但沉积记录中的Uk37指数反演的SST可能仅代表冬季上层水体的温度。

Abstract

In this study, the Uk37 indices for surface sediment samples derived from the South China Sea (SCS), Pacific Ocean, East China Sea (ECS) and Arctic Ocean are analysed, as well as the overlying averaged sea surface temperature (SST) at 0~30 m depth. The alkenone-derived Uk37 index is justified as a useful palaeoenvironment proxy at extreme cold and warm end (-0.6 ℃~28 ℃) because the resulting Uk37 indices show a significant correlated linear relationship with annual averaged SST. Simultaneously, Uk37 indices have been correlated with averaged SST of four seasons in the SCS as well. However, the seasonal pattern of Coccolith (E. huxleyi and G. oceanic), being source of alkenone, is showed prosperous in winter time. As a result, the sedimentary Uk37 index may only reflect the winter SST of the overlying waters.
