Outline of Final Research Achievements

To reconstruct the oxygen isotope ratio of Archean seawater, we conducted geological investigation in the Cenozoic and Archean geologic bodies and collected hydrothermal quartz precipitates in the cavities of oceanic pillow basalts. Based on the oxygen isotope analyses on the quartz samples and the measurements of homogenization temperature of fluid inclusions in the quartz samples, it was revealed that the subseafloor low-temperature fluids in the Cenozoic and Archean had oxygen isotope ratios similar to the modern seawater value. Therefore, the seawater oxygen isotope ratio has been likely buffered by seafloor hydrothermal activities to be the values close to the modern equivalent.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

過去の海水の酸素同位体比を明らかにすることは、様々な鉱物から過去の海水温変動を定量的に推定する上で非常に重要である。本研究では、海底下の熱水性鉱物を用いて太古代の海水酸素同位体比を初めて復元することができた。本研究で用いた熱水性石英は顕生代など、より若い時代の地質体にもよく保存されており、今後本研究手法を適用することによって、より詳細な海水酸素同位体進化を推定することができるようになる。また、本研究は地球上の火成岩や変成岩に普遍的に存在する石英試料にも適用することが可能であり、様々な地質セッティングの流体の酸素同位体比を復元することで流体の起源を明らかにすることができるようになると期待される。
