Oxygen isotope composition of the Phanerozoic ocean and a possible solution to the dolomite problem
Open accessAbstract
Significance: The elemental and isotopic compositions of seawater have evolved throughout Earth’s history, in tandem with major climatic, tectonic and biologic events, including the emergence and diversification of life. Over geological timescales, the oxygen isotope composition of seawater reflects a global balance between mineral–rock reactions occurring at the Earth’s surface (weathering and sedimentation) and crustal (hydrothermal alteration) environments. We put constraints on the oxygen isotope composition of seawater throughout the Phanerozoic and demonstrate that this value has remained stable. This stability suggests that the fluxes of globally averaged oxygen isotope exchange, associated with weathering and hydrothermal alteration reactions, have remained proportional through time and is consistent with the hypothesis that a steady-state balance exists between seafloor hydrothermal activity and surface weathering.

The burial-hydrothermal dolomitization model is supported by petrographic observations and geochemical evidence from Phanerozoic and Proterozoic dolostones.
“This model is supported by many petrographic observations (e.g., coarse dolomite cements, saddle dolomites) and geochemical evidence (e.g., elemental and isotopic compositions) from both Phanerozoic (7) and Proterozoic dolostones (8).”
From Massive formation of early diagenetic dolomite in the Ediacaran ocean: Constraints on the "dolomite problem" (2020) · cites this paper as [7]
The cited paper reports isotopic evidence from Phanerozoic dolostones and concludes that its data are consistent with dolomitization during deep circulation of seawater (Significance, pp. 2, 5). It does not provide the cited petrographic evidence of coarse cements or saddle dolomites. In the citing sentence, the separate citation (8) is attached to Proterozoic dolostones, so that portion is not attributed to this source. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredNo geological process is known to reduce TΔ47 values.
“Because no geological process is known to reduce T Δ47 values (7, 23-25)”
From Massive formation of early diagenetic dolomite in the Ediacaran ocean: Constraints on the "dolomite problem" (2020) · cites this paper as [7]
The Significance section (p. 3) says solid-state isotopic reordering, if it occurred in the calcites discussed, would shift clumped-isotope temperatures toward higher values. That supports the point for this process, but the paper does not establish the broader claim that no geological process can reduce TΔ47 values. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredMost of the studied dolomite samples must have formed at temperatures below 100 °C, which is inconsistent with an origin via the widely accepted burial-hydrothermal dolomitization model.
“these results suggest that most of our dolomite samples must have formed at temperatures below 100 °C, which is inconsistent with an origin via the widely accepted burial-hydrothermal dolomitization model (5,7).”
From Massive formation of early diagenetic dolomite in the Ediacaran ocean: Constraints on the "dolomite problem" (2020) · cites this paper as [7]
The source supports a deep-burial account of dolomite formation: it says pre-Cenozoic dolomites mostly formed above plausible shallow-sediment temperatures (p. 4) and concludes that its data are consistent with dolomitization at kilometer-scale burial depths (p. 5). It does not establish 100 °C as a cutoff that rules out burial dolomitization; its reported mean crystallization temperatures for Paleozoic and Mesozoic dolomites are both below 100 °C (p. 3). The temperature inference about 'our dolomite samples' belongs to the citing authors, not this source. (LLM, conf=0.85)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredOriginal TΔ47 signatures are subject to secondary alteration via meteoric diagenesis, recrystallization, and solid-state reordering during geological burial, all of which shift values to higher-than-original TΔ47 values.
“Original T Δ47 signatures are subject to secondary alteration via meteoric diagenesis, recrystallization, and solid-state reordering during geological burial, all of which result in shifts to higher-than-original T Δ47 values (7,(23)(24)(25).”
From Massive formation of early diagenetic dolomite in the Ediacaran ocean: Constraints on the "dolomite problem" (2020) · cites this paper as [7]
The Significance section (p. 3) says burial-related diagenetic alteration can record elevated clumped-isotope temperatures and that solid-state reordering, if it occurred, would shift those temperatures higher. But the paper does not establish that meteoric diagenesis and recrystallization necessarily shift TΔ47 higher; it discusses meteoric water as a possible cause of changes in δ18O. It also expects the dolomites selected for this study to retain their crystallization temperatures (p. 2). (LLM, conf=0.86)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredClumped isotopes show little change in Phanerozoic δ18Oseawater.
“In addition, clumped isotopes show little change in Phanerozoic δ18Oseawater [e.g., (235)].”
From The Archean atmosphere (2020) · cites this paper as [235]
Relative temperature differences are expected to be preserved when samples experience a common burial history because reordering shifts original D47 values to warmer values by roughly the same amounts.
“we expect relative temperature differences to be preserved when samples experience a common burial history because reordering should shift original D 47 values to higher (or warmer) values by roughly the same amounts (Cummins et al., 2014;Ryb and Eiler, 2018).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
