英文摘要 | Glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraether core lipids (GDGTs) are microbial biomarkers ubiquitously distributed in terrestrial and marine environments. Dispersal and fate of GDGTs in an estuary largely depends on sediment grain size, however, their size distribution patterns remain poorly understood. Here, surface sediments collected from the Changjiang Estuary were separated into <20, 20-32, 32-63, 63-125 and >125 mu m fractions, and analyzed for GDGTs as well as total organic carbon (TOC), stable isotopic composition (delta 13C) of TOC and lignin phenols, to investigate the size and spatial distributions of GDGTs and the particle size effects on GDGTs proxies in this large river delta -front estuary. The concentrations of isoprenoidal GDGTs (isoGDGTs) were higher in the finest fractions and in off-estuary sites. On the contrary, branched GDGTs (brGDGTs) were high not only in the finest fractions but in coarser fractions (>32 mu m fractions), and thus at both near- and off-estuary sites. The branched and isoprenoid tetraether (BIT) index increased with increasing grain size, and decreased sharply from the estuary (-0.52) to the shelf (-0.16). BrGDGTs were positively correlated with crenarcheaol in both high and low BIT regions. The brGDGTIIIa/IIa ratios in all size fractions were <0.59, further indicating that the brGDGTs were mainly derived from terrestrial input with minimum in -situ production. Fractional TOC source assignments derived from the BIT index was significantly positively correlated with the fractions of terrestrial OC from a mixing model based on delta C-13-TOC and lignin contents, indicating that BIT may track a broader pool of terrestrial OC than just soil OC. This work provides novel, yet preliminary insights into the size fractionated distribution characteristics of GDGTs and the applicability of BIT as a proxy for OC sources in estuarine sediments. More work is needed to further clarify the particle size effects on other GDGTs proxies in estuarine systems. |
