Resumen:
|
The late Pliensbachian–early Toarcian (Early Jurassic) was a time of major environmental changes that culminated with the Early Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (T-OAE, ca. ~183?Ma). This period is marked by significant disturbances in the carbon cycle and rapid climatic changes. To improve the understanding of the expression of these events in westernmost Tethyan domains, this study provides new belemnite and bulk carbonate C and O stable isotope records of a ~5?Myr upper Pliensbachian to middle Toarcian marine succession of the Balearic Basin (Es Cosconar section, Majorca). Time resolution has been improved by combination of biostratigraphic (ammonoids and brachiopods) and geochronologic (87Sr/86Sr) methods. Seawater paleotemperatures derived from ?18O belemnite records reveal cooler paleotemperatures in the upper part of the Spinatum Zone. The uppermost Spinatum Zone is characterized by the onset of a warming event that crosses the Pliensbachian-Toarcian boundary, culminating with the warmer temperatures (up to ~10?°C of warming) for the Serpentinum Zone of the lower Toarcian. This warming event has been detected contemporaneously in many other European and Tethyan basins and is interpreted to represent generalized raised seawater temperatures linked to the T-OAE. Four significant ?13C events have been recorded in belemnite and bulk carbonate records. The first is a negative carbon isotope excursion (CIE) around the Pliensbachian-Toarcian boundary, which is best represented in the belemnite record. Soon after, the bulk?carbonate record shows a positive shift in the lower Tenuicostatum Zone concomitant with a return to background values in the belemnite record, suggesting strong water stratification or decoupling probably related with export of neritic carbonate to the basin. The third is a negative CIE represented in bulk carbonate across the Tenuicostatum-Serpentinum zonal transition, which could be correlated with the negative excursion characterizing the onset of the T-OAE in other sections. The position of this excursion corresponds with a gap in the belemnite record. Finally, in the lower Toarcian, both the bulk carbonate and belemnite carbon isotope records show pronounced positive CIEs in the lower-middle part of the Serpentinum Zone. These CIEs testify the impact of the T-OAE in the Balearic basin.
