溫室氣體中的二氧化碳與全球氣候變遷環環相扣,而海洋是地表二氧化碳主要的儲庫。海水硼同位素可作為pH值或pCO2的指標,因此藉由海洋生物性碳酸鈣中的硼同位素記錄,有機會了解過去海洋二氧化碳濃度的變化。本研究改良硼微昇華純化技術,取代繁雜的樹脂管柱程序,並有效去除有機質及大部分的鹽類。同位素分析則發展Cs2BO2+正離子質譜術,目前樣品硼需要量達250ng水準。以國際標準樣品NIST951測試,硼同位素比值11B/10B = 4.0519 (2σm = ± 0.09‰,n = 33),符合世界主要實驗室測值,且樣品經純化及濃縮步驟後,硼同位素比值不變。實驗室內標準珊瑚樣品經微昇華與濃縮步驟後, 11B/10B = 4.1517 (2σm = ± 0.19‰, n = 7),以NIST951為標準樣品換算,其δ11B = 24.66‰。實際應用於自然界樣品,分析綠島Porites sp.珊瑚骨骼的硼、氧及碳同位素,配合水文資料及Sr/Ca溫度,探討影響骨骼硼同位素變化的可能因素。研究結果顯示1988年至1990年δ11B分佈從21.3‰至29.1‰,平均,換算成相對應pH值,範圍從pH = 7.6到pH = 8.3;δ18O平均為-4.81‰,δ13C平均為-2.94‰,與世界其他地區珊瑚骨骼的氧、碳同位素比值相近。硼同位素與溫度及碳同位素呈現夏高冬低的週期起伏,而氧同位素則無明顯的季節性變化。研究結果推論珊瑚骨骼硼同位素變化可能主要與季節性黑潮的擺盪、菲律賓海與南海水團的分佈以及湧升流強度的變化有關,重以溫度驅動,使得夏季海水pCO2高於冬季,造成微環境海水在夏季有較高的pH值;此外短期的氣候事件(如聖嬰、反聖嬰事件)亦可能加劇季節性pH值的變化。至於生機效應的貢獻需要更進一步研究釐清。另外,骨骼碳同位素經修正動力學效應後顯示共生藻在夏季光合作用的時間或效率較高;而氧同位素則主要受溫度及動力學效應影響。
Carbon dioxide is one of the most important greenhouse gases tightly linking to the global climatic variation. Geochemical investigations have demonstrated that boron isotope in marine carbonates is the only validated record to understand pH or pCO2 of seawater in the past. In this study, coral skeleton collected from an offshore islet, Lutao, southeastern Taiwan, was used for high precision trace element and stable isotope (C, O and B) analyses. We modified the micro-sublimation technique for boron separation and purification, which was manifested not only to avoid the complicated resin procedures but also to eliminate most of the organic matter and salt interferences. A modified Cs2BO2+ TIMS technique was developed for boron isotopic analyses with precision of 0.09‰ and 0.19‰ for NBS951 (11B/10B = 4.0519, 2σm = ± 0.09‰,n = 33) and a coral standard (11B/10B = 4.1517, 2σm = ± 0.19‰, n = 7) respectively and applied successfully for 30 coral determination. The δ11B in Lutao coral skeleton varies largely from 21.3 to 29.1‰ during 1988 to 1990 (from pH = 7.6 to 8.3) with a mean value of 24.0‰. These results display strong seasonal variability, which is similar to the variation of carbon isotope and monthly average temperature. Interestingly, the variation of oxygen isotope is much smaller and shows no effect of seasonality. The boron isotopic composition of Lutao coral skeletons are affected mainly by: (1) variation of seawater pCO2 as a result of seasonal influence by intrusion of the Kuroshio Current or local upwelling; (2) short-term climatic event such as El Niño or La Niña; and (3) biological vital effect. The carbon isotopes reflect possible effects of symbiotic photosynthetic activity and the oxygen is mainly influenced both by temperature or kinetic. Future study will focus on laboratory culture experiments to evaluate possible vital artifact in coral skeleton.
