摘要 | Isotopic compositions of coeval sulfide and sulfate have been widely employed to reconstruct the seawater chemistry evolution over geologic time; however, these signals can be modulated by other factors, such as the sedimentation rate. Here, we present a data set of pyrite sulfur isotopes (delta S-34(py)) derived from 60-m drilled core sediments deposited on the inner shelf of the East China Sea since 16.5 ka. The resulting delta S-34(py) values range from -38.2 to 15.0 parts per thousand (Vienna Canyon Diablo Troilite; V-CDT), representing a range of 53.2 parts per thousand. Freshwater deposition before 12.3 ka produced a limited pyrite abundance and delta S-34(py) values that fall within the typical range of freshwater environments. After the marine incursion in the study area at 12.3 ka, variations in the delta S-34(py) values become significantly correlated with sedimentation rates (SRs; r = 0.78, p < 0.01), which were controlled by the intensity of coastal currents in response to the East Asian winter monsoon. Specifically, pyrite sulfur is markedly depleted in S-34 during the intervals with low SRs (delta S-34(py) < -30 parts per thousand) relative to that observed during the intervals with high SRs (delta S-34(py) > 0 parts per thousand), suggesting that SRs exert controls on delta S-34(py) values. We propose that these sedimentary controls are expressed by modulating the connectivity between porewaters and the overlying seawater. Low SRs tend to form an open diagenetic system, in which the pyrites are able to preserve the large biological fractionations associated with microbial sulfate reduction (and disproportionation). In contrast, high SRs favour a restricted diagenetic system, in which the distillation of porewater sulfate produces pyrites enriched in S-34, masking the magnitude of biological fractionation during microbial sulfur cycling. These findings highlight the critical effect of the local sedimentation regime on pyrite sulfur isotopic compositions, especially within shallow depositional environments, over geologic time. |
