Cave carbonates are an important archive of terrestrial paleoclimate and have previously been analyzed using multiple proxies. A few studies explored the potential for carbonate clumped isotope thermometry as a tool constraining past temperatures. To date, most papers utilizing this method focused on mass-47 values (Δ47) at single location reported that cave minerals rarely achieve isotopic equilibrium, with kinetic effects (KIEs) attributed to CO2 degassing. More recently, shown mass-48...
The Cedars is an area in Northern California with a chain of highly alkaline springs resulting from CO-charged meteorological water interacting peridotite body. Serpentinization this interaction at depth leads to the sequestration various carbonate minerals into veins accompanied by release Ca and OH enriched surface, creating environment which promotes rapid precipitation CaCO surface springs. This enables us apply recently developed Δ-Δ dual clumped isotope analysis probe kinetic effects...
