The evolution of Earth's surficial Mg cycle over the past 2 billion years
The surficial cycling of Mg is coupled with the global carbon cycle, a predominant control of Earth's climate. However, how Earth's surficial Mg cycle evolved with time has been elusive. Magnesium isotope signatures of seawater (δ26Mgsw) track the surficial Mg cycle, which could provide crucial information on the carbon cycle in Earth's history. Here, we present a reconstruction of δ26Mgsw evolution over the past 2 billion years using marine halite fluid inclusions and sedimentary dolostones. The data show that δ26Mgsw decreased, with fluctuations, by about 1.4‰ from the Paleoproterozoic to the present time. Mass balance calculations based on this δ26Mgsw record reveal a long-term decline in net dolostone burial (NDB) over the past 2 billion years, due to the decrease in dolomitization in the oceans and the increase in dolostone weathering on the continents. This underlines a previously underappreciated connection between the weathering-burial cycle of dolostone and the Earth's climate on geologic timescales.
