| Abstract: |
| Change of geological historical vegetation and climate are recorded by organic carbon isotopic composition (δ13C value) of sediments and animal fossils. The δ13C value, as a paleoenvironment proxy, is widely used in such studies as revealing climatic and tectonic events and their variations in geological history, quantitative reconstructing paleoecosystem vegetation structure, inferring the time and mechanism of C4 plants origin and expansion. This paper outlines theory about the application of δ13C value in paleoenvironmental research and introduces the experimental methods that how to get δ13C value data from various organic carbon carriers. Besides, examples are illustrated in this paper to show its indispensable function and excellent prospect in paleoenvirnomental study. |
