Modeling the paleo-seawater radiogenic strontium isotope record: A case study of the Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous

Abstract: While uniformitarianism underlies many aspects of the Earth sciences, modeling geochemical cycles throughout Earth history requires critically assessing the reliability and constancy of projecting modern fluxes and their isotope ratios into deep geologic time. In this study, we develop an iterative technique for modeling the radiogenic strontium isotope composition (R 87 = 87 Sr/ 86 Sr) of seawater (sw) during the Phanerozoic utilizing as a constraint the

“…Possibly counterbalancing this effect is the amount of global hydrothermal fluid flux, which some have inferred was higher than modern in the Cretaceous (53, 54) as a consequence of globally higher seafloor generation rates. Our results therefore suggest that either low-temperature exchange of Sr between basalt and seawater (including weathering of ocean-island basalts) was responsible for a large fraction of the overall basalt-seawater exchange (43,49,55), or conversely, that there was an exceptionally small continental weathering flux of radiogenic Sr during the Cretaceous. Supporting the prior interpretation are records of low-temperature hydrothermal crust alteration (49), which suggest that higher water temperatures increased the magnitude of low-temperature basalt-seawater exchange.…”

“…Although we have not attempted to create a global model for seawater [Ca] and [Sr] through time, differences in lowtemperature fluxes and retrograde outputs from altered oceanic crust (e.g., refs. 43,49), along with potential differences in reaction rates caused by paleoseawater variability, would be important to consider [a dual-porosity model is presented in the SI Appendix, section I to explore the effects of reaction rate differences on hydrothermal exchange (SI Appendix, section I and Fig. S5)].…”

“…There is no evidence for a generic dependence of δ 88/86 Sr fractionation during biogenic carbonate formation on environmental conditions, although temperature and growth rate effects were observed in some calcifying species (Fietzke and Eisenhauer, 2006;Böhm et al, 2012;Stevenson et al, 2014;Vollstaedt et al, 2014).

“…Continental weathering is the main source for marine Sr, Os, Li and Ca today and changes in the weathered lithology or weathering intensity are invoked as major drivers of the evolution of trace metal concentrations and their isotopic compositions in seawater over time (e.g. Misra and Froelich, 2012;Kristall et al, 2017). ROKGEM, the weathering module of cGENIE, provides a framework for calculating climate-and CO 2 -dependent additions of Ca, Mg and alkalinity from carbonate weathering (following Berner, 1994) and silicate weathering (following Brady, 1991)…”
