英文摘要 | Recently, 6-methyl branched glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (brGDGTs) were separated from 5-methyl brGDGTs, which are used in brGDGT-based proxies. Here we analyzed brGDGTs in 27 soil samples along the 400 mm isoline of mean annual precipitation in China by using tandem 2D liquid chromatography. The fractional abundance of 6-methyl brGDGTs showed a positive correlation with soil pH, while that of 5-methyl brGDGTs decreased with increasing soil pH. The abundance ratio of 6-/5-methyl brGDGTs, namely the isomerization of branched tetraethers (IBT), was calculated. The correlation of IBT with pH (pH = 6.33 - 1.28 x IBT; R-2 0.89; root mean squared error, RMSE, 0.24) was much stronger than that of the traditionally used cyclization index of branched tetraethers (CBT) with pH (R-2 0.52; RMSE 0.49) and comparable with that of CBT' with pH (R-2 0.88; RMSE 0.25). Compiling all available data from 319 soil samples resulted in a global calibration: pH = 6.53 - 1.55 x IBT (R-2 0.72; RMSE 0.65), which has a better correlation than the CBT5ME-pH proxy (R-2 0.63; RMSE 0.78), but a weaker correlation than the CBT'-pH proxy (R-2 0.85; RMSE 0.52). Our result suggests that the IBT is a promising indicator for soil pH, particularly in cases when some compounds in the CBT' index cannot be determined. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. |
