英文摘要 | Reconstructing the history of biological productivity and atmospheric oxygen partial pressure (pO2) is a fundamental goal of geobiology. Recently, the mass-independent fractionation of oxygen isotopes (O-MIF) has been used as a tool for estimating pO2and productivity during the Proterozoic. O-MIF, reported as δ'17O, is produced during the formation of ozone and destroyed by isotopic exchange with water by biological and chemical processes. Atmospheric O-MIF can be preserved in the geologic record when pyrite (FeS2) is oxidized during weathering, and the sulfur is redeposited as sulfate. Here, sedimentary sulfates from the ~1.4-Ga Sibley Formation are reanalyzed using a detailed one-dimensional photochemical model that includes physical constraints on air-sea gas exchange. Previous analyses of these data concluded that pO2at that time was <1% PAL (times the present atmospheric level). Our model shows that the upper limit on pO2is essentially unconstrained by these data. Indeed, pO2levels below 0.8% PAL are possible only if atmospheric methane was more abundant than today (so that pCO2could have been lower) or if the Sibley O-MIF data were diluted by reprocessing before the sulfates were deposited. Our model also shows that, contrary to previous assertions, marine productivity cannot be reliably constrained by the O-MIF data because the exchange of molecular oxygen (O2) between the atmosphere and surface ocean is controlled more by air-sea gas transfer rates than by biological productivity. Improved estimates of pCO2and/or improved proxies for Δ'17O of atmospheric O2would allow tighter constraints to be placed on mid-Proterozoic pO2. © 2021 National Academy of Sciences.
