Interstitial water chemistry of DSDP Leg 85 sites
Listed in PANGAEA and DataCite — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.1594/pangaea.712340
The concentration changes in pore waters of dissolved calcium, magnesium, sulfate, strontium, and silica and of alkalinity are controlled by diagenetic reactions occurring within the biogenic sediments of DSDP Sites 572, 573, and 574.
Description
Downcore increases in dissolved Sr2 + indicate recrystallization of calcite, and increases in dissolved SiO2 reflect dissolution of amorphous silica. Minor gradients in dissolved Ca(2+) and Mg(2+) suggest little if any influence from reactions involving volcanic sediments or basalt.
Differences in interstitial water profiles showing the downhole trends of these chemical species mark variations in carbonate and silica diagenesis, sediment compositions, and sedimentation rate histories among the sites. The location and extent of carbonate diagenesis in these sediments are determined from Sr/Ca distributions between the interstitial waters and the bulk carbonate samples. Pore water strontium increases in the upper 100 to 250 m of sediment are assumed to reflect diffusion from underlying zones where calcite recrystallization has occurred.

On the basis of calculations of dissolved strontium production and comparisons between observed and calculated "equilibrium" Sr/Ca ratios of the solids, approximately 30 to 50% of the carbonate has recrystallized in these deeper intervals. These estimates agree with the observed amounts of chalk at these sites. Variations in Sr/Ca ratios of these carbonates reflect differences in calcareous microfossil content, in diagenetic history, and, possibly, in changes in seawater Sr/Ca with time.
Samples of porcelanite recovered below 300 m at Site 572 suggest formation at temperatures 20 to 30° C greater than ones estimated assuming oceanic geothermal gradients from sedimentary sections similar to those recovered on Leg 85. The higher temperatures may partially account for higher Sr/Ca ratios determined for recrystallized carbonates from this site.
