Exploring and optimizing characterization of radionuclide fingerprint for tracking sediment source: Comparison of mangrove, seagrass,and coral reef ecosystems

  • 摘要: 物质来源是沉积学研究的关键问题。沉积地球化学是沉积学的重要研究手段,放射性核素在沉积地球化学中的应用探索仍较为匮乏。本研究利用高纯锗γ谱仪同时测量红树林、海草床、珊瑚礁三大典型生态系统的沉积物中天然放射性核素(238U、226Ra、228Ra、40K),分析3种生态系统的沉积物中放射性核素分布特征,探索基于放射性核素的一维视角下活度特征、二维视角下核素对与活度比值、三维视角下三角图解的指纹表征技术,识别沉积物中不同物质的来源,并尝试推广至中国不同海域。本研究强调三维指纹表征技术—基于核素活度的238U-232Th(228Ra)-40K/10三角图解可以综合展示3种放射性核素的活度大小、组成比例、空间分布等信息,指出238U-232Th(228Ra)-40K/10三角图解可能是沉积物中物源识别的一种优化方法,可为沉积地球化学研究中的现有代用指标工具库提供有益补充。
