摘 要: | Two positive δ^13C excursions are presented in records from the Frasnlan-Famenninn (F-F) marine carbonate sediments in Europe, America, Africa, and Australia,having been considered as a worldwide pattern, and attributed to enhanced organic carbon burial during the F-F biological mass extinction, However, this worldwide pattern has not been revealed from the well-deposited Late Devonian sequences in southern China. In this paper, a detailed investigation has been made on the Late Devonian section at Dongcun, Guilin, southern China to constrain perturbationsin δ^13C of carbonates in the F-F deposited sequence. The result from this section also indicates two positive δ^13C excursions during the F-F transition. The first excursion with an amplitude of 1.5‰ occurred at the bottom of linguiformis Zone, later than the early excursion existing in the Late rhenana Zone of the Late Devonian profiles in other continents,especially, in central Europe. This difference has been expected to be a result as conodont Palmatolepis linguiformis occurred earlier in southern China than other sites. The second excursion with an amplitude of 2.1‰ is located at the F-F boundary, same as the records from other continents.This result strongly supports the view that two carbon isotope positive excursions during the F-F transition are common in carbonate sediments, resulting from worldwide increases of organic carbon burial intensity.
