英文摘要	The widely distributed shells of the gastropod Radix are a potential high resolution archive of environmental information. However, previous studies of Radix have used the shells of unidentified species, and the implications of inter- and intra-specific differences in the geochemical attributes of the shells for paleoenvironmental reconstruction are unclear. Here we report the results of a modern process study and species level classification of Radix based on measurements of the trace element and stable isotope composition of the shells, together with an investigation of the occurrence of living Radix in lakes, wetlands and rivers in the Tibetan Plateau. The results indicate that vital effects on the trace element and stable isotope composition of the modern aragonite shells of the four most common species (R. auricularia, R. cucunorica, R. lagotis and R. acuminata Lamark) are not big, especially for the two dominant species (R. auricularia and R. cucunorica). Intraspecies differences in both the major elemental ratios and the stable isotopic values can be ignored in the larger shells of R. auricularia (length >14 mm). For different species of Radix of similar sizes, the values of Sr/Ca-shell (<0.0003) and Mg/Ca-shell (<0.0002) are similar in all four common species. By evaluating the importance of vital effects on quantitative paleohydrochemical constructions, we demonstrate that Sr/Ca-shell of Radix is a valuable tool for reconstructing the Sr/Ca ratio and conductivity of the paleo-lake water. However, the Mg/Ca-shell ratios of Radix have no clear environmental implications, possibly because of significant vital effects. Intraspecies differences of <0.4 parts per thousand and interspecies difference of <0.8 parts per thousand for delta O-18(shell) are observed amongst the four species; in addition, the intraspecies (<0.6 parts per thousand) and interspecies variations of delta C-13(shell) of Radix (<1.7 parts per thousand) are larger than those of delta O-18(shell). delta C-13(shell) of the identified Radix mainly reflects the delta C-13(DIC) of the ambient water and is probably limited by DIC, which is of inorganic origin and is seldom limited by DIC derived from the decomposition of organic matter. By evaluating the effects of different transfer functions of living Radix on paleohydrochemical reconstructions (Sr/Capalaeo-water, ECpalaeo-water, delta O-18(palaeo-water) and delta C-13(palaeo-DIC)), we show that the results obtained from transfer functions using R. auricularia and R. cucunorica are very similar, and we recommend the use of transfer functions based on living Radix which are of the same species as the fossil shells. Finally, we show that delta O-18(shell) of both identified and unidentified Radix can be used to determine lake hydrological status (open or closed). (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
