Paleomagnetic and paleoenvironmental implications of magnetofossil occurrences in late Miocene marine sediments from the Guadalquivir Basin, SW Spain

Abstract: Although recent studies have revealed more widespread occurrences of magnetofossils in pre-Quaternary sediments than have been previously reported, their significance for paleomagnetic and paleoenvironmental studies is not fully understood. We present a paleo- and rock-magnetic study of late Miocene marine sediments recovered from the Guadalquivir Basin (SW Spain). Well-defined paleomagnetic directions provide a robust magnetostratigraphic chronology for the two studied sediment cores. Rock magnetic results in… Show more

“…A significant recording delay, similar to the effects of a lock-in delay, is usually associated with a BGRM acquired by magnetofossils that were produced in the oxic sediment column (e.g. Larrasoaña et al, 2014). Our results, however, show evidence for very deep lock-in depths in Kälksjön and Gyltigesjön even without the presence of oxic conditions in the sediment column.…”

“…The OATZ is located above the sediment-water interface in both lakes as observed from oxygen profiles (Zillén, 2003;Snowball et al, 2013) and evidenced by varves, which would not be formed if burrowing and crawling organisms exist on the sediment surface. An OATZ in the water column leads to the acquisition of BDRM, which Larrasoaña et al (2014) associate with low preservation of magnetofossils due to anoxic conditions in the sediment column, which would cause reductive dissolution of magnetite (e.g. Snowball, 1994).…”

“…However, if they lived below the surface mixed layer as suggested by Tarduno and Wilkison (1996) and Tarduno et al (1998), magnetofossils will contribute to a biogeochemical remanent magnetization (Roberts et al, 2013a;Larrasoaña et al, 2014). Further work is needed to test these possibilities.…”

“…The authors note that ultraviolet-B radiation could affect both cell growth and magnetite synthesis, and suggest that magnetosomes may have evolutionary benefits for the survival of MTB under extreme environments.
