英文摘要: Carbonate clumped isotopes (Δ47) have become a widely applied method for paleothermometry, with applications spanning many environmental settings over hundreds of millions of years. However, Δ47-based paleothermometry can be complicated by closure temperature-like behavior whereby C–O bonds are reset at elevated diagenetic or metamorphic temperatures, sometimes without obvious mineral alteration. Laboratory studies have constrained this phenomenon by heating well-characterized materials at various temperatures, observing temporal Δ47 evolution, and fitting results to kinetic models with prescribed C–O bond reordering mechanisms. While informative, these models are inflexible regarding the nature of isotope exchange, leading to potential uncertainties when extrapolated to geologic timescales. Here, we instead propose that observed reordering rates arise naturally from random-walk O18 diffusion through the carbonate lattice, and we develop a “disordered” kinetic framework that treats C–O bond reordering as a continuum of first-order processes occurring in parallel at different rates. We show theoretically that all previous models are specific cases of disordered kinetics; thus, our approach reconciles the transient defect/equilibrium defect and paired reaction-diffusion models. We estimate the rate coefficient distributions from published heating experiment data by finding a regularized inverse solution that best fits each Δ47 timeseries without assuming a particular functional form a priori. Resulting distributions are well-approximated as lognormal for all experiments on calcite or dolomite; aragonite experiments require more complex distributions that are consistent with a change in oxygen bonding environment during the transition to calcite. Presuming lognormal rate coefficient distributions and Arrhenius-like temperature dependence yields an underlying activation energy, E, distribution that is Gaussian with a mean value of μE=224.3±27.6 kJ mol−1 and a standard deviation of σE=17.4±0.7 kJ mol−1 (±1σ uncertainty; n=24) for calcite and μE=230.3±47.7 kJ mol−1 and σE=14.8±2.2 kJ mol−1 (n=4) for dolomite. These model results are adaptable to other minerals and may provide a basis for future experiments whereby the nature of carbonate C–O bonds is altered (e.g., by inducing mechanical strain or cation substitution). Finally, we apply our results to geologically relevant heating/cooling histories and suggest that previous models underestimate low-temperature alteration but overestimate Δ47 blocking temperatures. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.
