摘要

The shell material of marine benthic bivalves provides a sensitive archive of water chemistry immediately above the sediment-water interface, which in turn is affected by sedimentary geochemistry and redox reactions. Sulfate has a major controlling effect on sedimentary carbon cycling, particularly the processes of methane production and oxidation, with lower concentrations of sulfate likely resulting in an increase in sedimentary methane production. Whilst it is accepted that ocean sulfate varied markedly across the Phanerozoic, evidence of changes in methane production in sediments has so far been lacking. There is potential for the oxidation products of sedimentary methane to be preserved and detected in marine fossils. Here we present the results of high resolution carbonate isotope records from two taxa of well-preserved shallow-infaunal bivalve (Lahillia and Cucullaea) collected from the marine shelf succession across the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary in Seymour Island, Antarctica. The succession has preexisting subtle indications of more abundant methane, and the time period is characterized by much lower marine sulfate concentrations than modern.
