Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sediment dating, and particularly to a calibration method and system for sediment dating.

Background Art

[0002] Accurate age data is the basis and core for reconstructing past human activities, climate, and environmental changes. Radiocarbon dating of sediments 14 is a method widely used in geology and archaeology to determine the age of samples by measuring the content of the radioactive carbon isotope 14 14C in sediments. However, the current sediment 14 14C dating method mainly relies on the presence of foraminifera. In some specific environments such as mountain lakes, glaciers, deserts, etc., foraminifera are absent. For dating sediments lacking foraminifera, total carbon samples 14 14C are used, and due to the mixing of "old carbon", the dating results are too old, so accurate age calibration cannot be performed using the conventional 14 14C dating method.

[0016] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more prominent and understandable, the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the drawings and the best mode for carrying out the invention.

[0017] The present invention utilizes the "substitution" principle of TRIZ and analyzes the total carbon sample of the sediment and the isotope content of 210Pb to replace the traditional sediment 14C dating method that depends on foraminifera. This alternative is creative and can solve the problem that conventional methods cannot accurately measure the age of sediments lacking foraminifera.

This alternative is creative and can solve the problem that conventional methods cannot accurately measure the age of sediments lacking foraminifera. At the same time, the present invention also combines the "interpolation" principle, establishes a relationship model between the isotope content and the age, and uses an interpolation calculation method to realize accurate age calibration of the sediment to be measured.

[0018] As shown in FIG. 1, the sediment age measurement method provided by the present invention includes the following. Step 100: Use the AMS 14C dating method to obtain the AMS 14C dating data of each layer of the sediment to be measured. 14 C dating method to obtain the AMS 14C dating data of each layer of the sediment to be measured. 14 C dating data of each layer of the sediment to be measured. In actual applications, AMS 14 C dating experiments are carried out on the total carbon of columnar sediments to obtain the AMS 14 C dating data for each layer of the sediment to be measured. Specifically, First, the acid-insoluble organic carbon in the sediment sample is converted to graphite, then the graphite is gasified, passed through an accelerator, and through steps such as removal of impurity particles, stripping of electrons, and acceleration of positrons, 12 C, 13 C, 14 C carbon atoms are separated. Finally, Faraday cups are used to receive the carbon atoms at various locations on the accelerator track, and then 14 for measuring 14 C / 12 C values or 14 C / 13 C values are calculated to obtain the AMS 14 C dating data of the sediment to be measured.

[0019] Step 101: By testing and analyzing 210 Pb isotopes in the shallow surface layer of the sediment to be measured, the balance of 210 Pb decay with sediment depth is obtained. In actual applications, through experiments, 210 Pb isotope testing and analysis in the shallow surface layer of columnar sediments are carried out to obtain the balance of 210 Pb decay with sediment depth. The experiment is carried out in accordance with the national standard of the People's Republic of China, "Measurement of Radionuclides in Marine Sediments - Gamma-ray Energy Spectrometry (GB / T 30738-2014)". Specifically, Approximately a certain weight (e.g., 10 g) of dry sediment is pulverized, passed through a 100-mesh sieve to remove plant roots and rhizomes, placed in a sample tube and sealed, and left for a certain number of days (e.g., 20 days). Next, radioisotope measurements are carried out using an ORTEC high-purity germanium well-type probe (GWL-120-15N). The measurement time for each sample is usually 1 to 3 days, and the total 210 Pb specific radioactivity is the peak area at an energy of 46.5 keV ( 210 Pb), and the background 210The specific radioactivity of Pb is 351 keV ( 214 Pb, 226 the daughter of Ra) and is calculated from the peak area at this energy. The specific radioactivity of excess 210 Pb is the difference between the total specific radioactivity of 210 Pb and the background 210 specific radioactivity of Pb. 210 Analyze the law by which Pb decays exponentially as the depth increases according to the law of radioactive decay. Among them, 210 Pb belongs to the uranium series decay nuclides, its half-life is 22.3 a, and the intensity of the 210 Pb nuclide, which is commonly used in sediment dating, decays to about 1% of the initial value after about 7 half-lives, making it difficult to accurately detect with equipment. 210 Therefore, the upper limit of 210 Pb dating is about 150 a. The total uranium series decay nuclides in sediments 226 Pb is composed of two parts. One part is 210 Pb derived from the natural decay of 210 Ra accumulated in sediments and is called compensated 210 Pb. The other part is derived from precipitated 210 Pb and is called excess 210 Pb or ex Pb. 226 Both 210 Ra and 238 Pb belong to the 226 U decay series nuclides, and 210 Ra and 226 Pb can be regarded as a pair of parent and daughter. 210 Assuming that there are no other inputs and outputs for 210 Ra and

[0020] Step 102: Using the balance of the decay of 210 Pb with sediment depth, measure the AMS 14 C dating data of the superficial layer of the sediment to be measured as the modern sediment layer. Step 103: AMS of the superficial layer of the sediment to be measured 14 C dating data and AMS 14 AMS of the superficial layer of the sediment to be measured obtained by the AMS 14 C dating method to obtain the calibration value of "old carbon" by interpolating the AMS Step 104: AMS of other layer positions other than the superficial layer of the sediment to be measured 14 Subtract the calibration value of "old carbon" from the AMS 14 C dating data to obtain the calibrated AMS of each layer of the sediment to be measured

[0021] From Step 102 to Step 104, the superficial layer sediment according to the depth in Step 101 210 Use the balance of Pb decay to determine the modern sediment layer (0 cal BP) and its AMS 14 C dating data, and measure the AMS 14 C dating data measured in Step 100 and Step 102 to interpolate the calibration value of "old carbon", and for the AMS of other layer positions 14 Subtract the calibration value of the "old carbon" from the C value to achieve calibration, and further obtain the calibrated AMS of each layer of the sediment to be measured 14 C calendar year value

[0022] Step 105: Calibrated AMS of two adjacent layers in the sediment to be measured 14 Determine the deposition rate based on the calibrated AMS C calendar year value and the depth value between two adjacent layers 14 Step 106: Based on the deposition rate, determine the AMS of the sediment between two adjacent layers 14 C calendar year value. Among them, according to the deposition rate, for the part between the two layer positions, the corresponding AMS C calendar year value is calculated by interpolation 14 Step 107: Based on the deposition rate, determine the AMS of the sediment other than the two adjacent layers 14 C calendar year value. Among them, in order to establish the subsequent time frame, extrapolation is performed for those other than the two layer positions, and the corresponding AMS Step 108: Calibrated AMS of each layer of the sediment to be measured 14 C calendar year value, AMS of sediment between two adjacent layers 14 C calendar year value and AMS of sediment other than two adjacent layers 14 Construct a chronological framework according to the C calendar year value to complete the dating of the sediment to be measured.

[0023] Based on the above description, the present invention 210 Based on the fact that Pb widely exists in the natural environment and has a half-life of 22.3 a, the previously formed 210 Pb decays exponentially with increasing depth according to the law of radioactive decay, reaches equilibrium at a certain depth, and it is considered that the sediment above that depth is within 150 a. Compared with the half-life of 5730 a for 14 C dating and the error of decades to hundreds of years 210 The sediment layer before Pb reaches equilibrium can be regarded as modern material, and since the age value is set as 0 Cal a BP, the 14 C measurement value is determined as the error value of "old carbon", and all 14 C dating data at this observation point are calibrated to establish a chronological framework of calendar years.

[0024] Based on this, the present invention utilizes the "substitution" principle of TRIZ to analyze the total carbon sample of the sediment and 210 the isotope content of Pb, thereby replacing the traditional sediment 14 C dating method that relies on foraminifera. This alternative can solve the problem that the conventional method cannot accurately date the sediment lacking foraminifera. At the same time, the present invention also combines the "interpolation" principle, establishes a relationship model between the isotope content and the age, and uses the interpolation calculation method to realize the accurate age calibration of the sample to be measured.

[0025] Furthermore, the present invention also provides a calibration system for sediment dating used to implement the sediment dating calibration method provided above.

[0028] The second dating module uses the balance of Pb decay with sediment depth to measure the AMS 210 14C dating data of the superficial layer of the sediment to be measured, taking the superficial layer of the sediment to be measured as the modern sediment layer. 14 It is used to measure the AMS

[0029] The calibration value determination module is used to obtain the calibration value of "old carbon" by interpolating the AMS 14 14C dating data of the superficial layer of the sediment to be measured and the AMS 14 14C dating data of the superficial layer of the sediment to be measured obtained by the AMS 14 14C dating method.

[0030] The dating data calibration module subtracts the calibration value of "old carbon" from the AMS 14 14C dating data of other layers except the superficial layer of the sediment to be measured, and is used to obtain the calibrated AMS 14 14C calendar year value for each layer of the sediment to be measured.

[0031] The deposition rate determination module is used to determine the deposition rate based on the calibrated AMS 14 calender year values of two adjacent layers in the sediment to be measured and the depth values between the two adjacent layers.

[0032] The third dating module is used to determine the AMS 14 calender year value of the sediment between two adjacent layers based on the deposition rate.
