Variation of gypsum morphology along deep core SG-1, western Qaidam Basin (northeastern Tibetan Plateau) and its implication to depositional environments
2017, Quaternary InternationalCitation Excerpt :They affect the morphology, crystal size and the lattice parameters (Edinger, 1973; Ichikuni and Musha, 1978; Kushnir, 1980; McCaffrey et al., 1987; Franchini-Angela and Rinaudo, 1989; Guan et al., 2010; Rossi et al., 2011; Otalora and Garcia-Ruiz, 2014). These behaviors form a basis for utilizing trace element concentrations as geochemical indicators to decipher the depositional environment of the gypsum, evaluate paleosalinity, differentiate brine origin, and study the diagenetic history (Kushnir, 1980, 1981; Ullman and McLeod, 1986; Lu et al., 1997, 2002). Since gypsum is formed in a complex lacustrine environment controlled by changes in climate, the relationship amongst crystal morphology, trace elements incorporated, lattice parameters and the depositional environment is complex.
Southern Hemisphere westerly wind changes during the Last Glacial Maximum: Paleo-data synthesis
2013, Quaternary Science ReviewsLate Quaternary palaeohydrological changes in the large playa Lake Frome in central Australia, recorded from the Mg/Ca and Sr/Ca in ostracod valves and biotic remains
2011, Journal of Arid EnvironmentsCitation Excerpt :Therefore, because the displacive gypsum crystals are post-depositional, we assume that their growth did not change the Sr/Ca of the lake waters at the time of deposition of the sediments containing the displacive gypsum. This hypothesis will be tested later on when comparing the ostracod shell composition results against the analyses done by Ullman and McLeod (1986) and Ullman and Collerson (1994) on the gypsum crystals. This relationship has been used here to reconstruct environmental changes recognised in the core.
