9 Empirical Findings on Fluid Inclusions Abundance Size - Water/Calcite ratio of 0.01 to 0.5 % by weight (typical 1 or 1 mg/g) - Non-uniform distribution (layered, high abundance: milky) - Typically 1 to 100 µm (but up to mm in rare cases) Shape - Often elongated or thorn shape, oriented parallel to C axis Content - Water or air or both (air bubbles in water-filled inclusion) - Air to water volume ratio about 1, but highly variable from < 0.1 to > 10 9

27 Stable Isotopes: From Rain to Carbonate Similar to groundwater, but higher resolution and better dating d 2 H, d 18 O of drip water Additional information in H 2 O CO 3 fractionation From Wackerbarth 2012 d 18 O of carbonate 27
28 The Carbonate-Isotope-Thermometer Precipitation of carbonates from water in isotopic equilibrium induces a T- dependent fractionation: ε eq (T) = 18 O CO3-18 O H2O This thermometer is accessible with calcite plus fluid inclusions! Problems: Precipitation in equilibrium? Which e(t) curve is correct? Low t-resolution of inclusions Possible O-isotope exchange 28
29 First Fluid Inclusion Studies Schwarcz and Harmon, 1976, GCA 40, Goal: Paleotemperature through water-calcite-fractionation Assumptions: - Equilibrium conditions can be ascertained by a Hendy-Test - 18 O of fluid inclusion water exchanges with calcite - d 2 H is not altered and used to reconstruct d 18 O via GMWL Harmon, Schwarcz, and O'Neil, EPSL 42, Goal: Reconstruction of isotopic composition of precipitation Result: d 2 H of glacial water depleted relative to modern precip. Similar results were later obtained for Europe by Rozanski and Dulinski, In: Isotope Techniques in Water Resources Development. pp , IAEA, Vienna. 29
30 Methods for Water Extraction Crushing by Squeezing a Tube Harmon et al., 1979 Not very efficient crushing mechanism (coarse grains, low yield) Needs very large samples (up to 20 g) bad age resolution Possible bias due to incomplete transfer of water (adsorption) 30
31 Methods for Water Extraction Thermal decrepitation Heating of sample to between about 700 and 900 C. Vennemann & O Neil, 1993, Chem. Geol. 103, Better yield, smaller samples, but offset in d 2 H of extracted water from original water: D ex between -22 (Yonge, 1982, PhD thesis) to -30 (Matthews et al., 2000, Chem. Geol. 166, ). Production of CO 2 at high temperatures, definitely leads to oxygen isotope exchange not applicable for 18 O. 31
32 Methods for Water Extraction Crushing and mild heating in vacuum cell Heating to 150 C avoids adsorption of water on calcite surfaces, which otherwise leads to water loss and isotope fractionation. Produces reliable d 2 H-values. Used e.g. by Fleitmann et al., 2003 (Quat. Res. 60, ) to reconstruct changing sources of drip water (precipitation) in Oman. Dennis et al., 2001, GCA 65,

38 Noble gases in caves Introduction Reality: Air-filled inclusions Water inclusions contain T-information in dissolved noble gas concentrations Air inclusions add air-derived noble gases and mask the information Analogous to excess air in groundwater, but much higher air contribution Scheidegger et al., 2010, Chemical Geology Air-Excess Parameter: A = V air /V water water filled inclusion air-filled inclusion 20µm Groundwater: Typically A < 0.01 Speleothems: Typically A ~ 1 Maximum tolerable value of A is ~ 0.1 Thick section of stalagmite H12 38

(Modern MAAT ~ 9.5 C) Due to water adsorption during crushing: Resolved by heating crusher to 150 C 41 41

51 Summary Stable isotopes of meteoric water and atmospheric noble gases are established climate proxies in groundwater Fluid inclusions in speleothems are a promising new archive for both proxies, with many benefits Extraction and analysis are challenging, but much progress is being made Reliable absolute temperatures from the NG thermometer plus drip water isotopes should help to understand d 18 O c 51 51
