    Notes: Abstract.  The mineral ‘fluorite’ is utilized as a probe to investigate the behaviour of the pseudolanthanide yttrium with respect to the lanthanides (rare-earth elements, REE) in fluorine-rich hydrothermal solutions. Hydrothermal vein fluorites are characterized by the close association of Y and REE, but in contrast to igneous and clastic rocks they show variable and non-chondritic Y/Ho ratios of up to 200. This suggests that Y and Ho, although similar in charge and size, may be fractionated in fluorine-rich medium-temperature aqueous fluids. In such solutions Y acts as a pseudolanthanide heavier than Lu. Y/Ho ratios of hydrothermal siderites are slightly below those of chondrites, suggesting that in (bi)carbonate-rich siderite-precipitating solutions Y may act as a Sm-like light pseudolanthanide. This indicates that Y-Ho fractionation is not a source-related phenomenon but depends on fluid composition. Based on these results it is strongly recommended that discussions of normalized REE patterns in general should be extended to normalized Rare-Earth-and-Yttrium (REY) patterns (Y inserted between Dy and Ho), because the slightly variable behaviour of the pseudolanthanide yttrium with respect to the REE may provide additional geochemical information. Available thermodynamic data suggest a negative correlation between Y/Ho and La/Ho during migration of a fluorite-precipitating hydrothermal solution. Cogenetic fluorites, therefore, should display either similar Y/Ho and similar La/Ho ratios, or a negative correlation between these ratios. This criterion may help to choose samples suitable for Sm-Nd isotopic studies prior to isotope analysis. However, in cogenetic hydrothermal vein fluorites the range of Y/Ho ratios is often almost negligible compared to the range of La/Ho ratios. This may be explained by modification of REE distributions by post-precipitation processes involving (partial) loss of a separate LREE-enriched phase. The presence of variable amounts of such an accessory phase in most fluorite samples is revealed by experiments employing stepwise incomplete fluorite decomposition. Fluorites derived from and deposited near to igneous rocks apparently display chondritic Y/Ho ratios close to those of their igneous source-rocks. However, a positive YSN anomaly is likely to develop as the distance between sites of REY mobilization and deposition increases.

    Description / Table of Contents: Abstract In the Black Forest, mineral waters from five wells in crystalline basement (granite and gneisses), their probable source rocks and the experimental leachates were evaluated for rare earth elements (REE), yttrium contents, and lead isotope ratios. The distribution of REE and Y, and the Pb-isotope ratios are powerful tools to identify the most likely type of rock that controls cation contents of the mineral water. Granites and gneisses lead to REE patterns with varying negative europium anomalies in waters; i. e., gneisses have a tendency for positive or only slightly negative europium anomalies in fluids, whereas granites exhibit negative anomalies. The comparison of REE and Y in the leachates and waters shows that these elements are characteristically redistributed during water-rock inter-action between rock-forming and accessory minerals, surface layers and adsorption films. REE and Y are leachable in the aquifer rocks, in which light REE are partially impoverished. REE and Y in samples from surface outcrops show enhanced leachable fractions. In alterated rocks, large fractions of 206 Pb are definitely leached from other solid phases than 207 Pb and 208 Pb.
    Notes: Kurzfassung Seltenerdelement(SEE)- und Yttrium(Y)-Gehalte sowie Bleiisotopen-Verhältnisse wurden in den potentiellen Aquifergesteinen, deren experimentellen Laugungslösungen und den Mineralwässern ermittelt. Für diese Studie wurden Mineralwässer aus fünf Bohrungen im kristallinen Grundgebirge (Granit und Gneis) des Schwarzwaldes ausgewählt. Die Verteilung der Lanthaniden, des Yttriums und der Bleiisotope sind geeignete Mittel, um das Gestein zu erkennen, das den Kationengehalt der Mineralwässern dominant prägt. Gneise und Granite führen zu Lanthanidenmustern mit unterschiedlichen Europium-Anomalien; Wässer aus Gneisen sind eher durch positive, aus Graniten häufig durch negative Europium-Anomalien charakterisiert. Der Vergleich der SEE- und Y-Gehalte in den Laugungslösungen mit denen der Wässer zeigt auf, wie sich in den Wasserleitern die Einbindung dieser Elemente in den Mineralen und Akzessorien, ihren Oberflächenzonen und Adsorbatfilmen gegenüber den weniger alterierten Gesteinen der Umgebung verändert hat. SSE und Y sind in den Wasserleitern gut laugbar, teilweise sind diese bereits an den leichten SEE verarmt, während die SEE- und Y-Gehalte in den Gesteinsproben von Oberflächenaufschlüssen insgesamt höher und insbesondere an leichten SEE nicht verarmt sind. 206 Pb wird zu einem erheblichen Teil aus anderen Festphasen als 207 Pb und 208 Pb gelaugt.

    Notes: Abstract The analytical procedure for the determination of Ba and rare earth elements in rocks and minerals by ICP-MS is described. The yield of mono-oxide and hydroxide ions of Ba and rare earth elements, and chloride ions of Ba has been determined. A Microsoft Excel spreadsheet template has been written to calculate the expected peak intensities for all possible analyte species (M+, MO+, MOH+ and MCl+) as a function of the mass number. The degree of interferences of different analyte isotopes is estimated and interferent equivalent concentrations are given for elements, for which no isotope free from interferences is available. The method is applied to the analysis of the four Geo-Reference samples AC-E, GSP-1, G-2 and AGV-1; the analytical accuracy is better than ±10% for most of the elements when compared with recommended reference values.

    Description: The drilled Inter-Continental Drilling Project core at the deeps of the Dead Sea reveals thick sequences of halite deposits from the last interglacial period, reflecting prevailing arid conditions in the lake’s watershed. Here, we examine sequences of intercalating evaporates (halite or gypsum) and fine-detritus laminae and apply petrographic, micro-X-ray fluorescence, and statistical tools to establish in high-temporal resolution the hydroclimatic controls on the sedimentation in the last interglacial Dead Sea. The time series of the thickness of the best-recovered core sections of the layered halite, detritus, and gypsum reveals periodicities of ~11, 7–8, and 4–5 yr, pointing to a North Atlantic control and possibly solar influence on the hydrology of the Dead Sea watershed during the regionally arid period of the last interglacial period. Similar periodicities were detected in the last glacial and modern sedimentary sequences of the Dead Sea and other archives of the central Levant, indicating a persistent impact of the solar cycles on regional hydrology, possibly through the effects of the North Atlantic Oscillation.

    Description: Changing content of detrital input in laminated sediments traced by XRF scanning and microfacies analyses reflect prominent variations in sedimentation processes in the Aral Sea. A high-resolution record of titanium from a core retrieved in the northwestern Large Aral Sea allows a continuous reconstruction of wind strength and frequency in western Central Asia for the past 1500 yr. During AD 450–700, AD 1210–1265, AD 1350–1750 and AD 1800–1975, detrital inputs (bearing titanium) are high, documenting an enhanced early spring atmospheric circulation associated with an increase in intensity of the Siberian High pressure system over Central Asia. In contrast, lower titanium content during AD 1750–1800 and AD 1980–1985 reflects a diminished influence of the Siberian High during early spring with a reduced atmospheric circulation. A moderate circulation characterizes the time period AD 700–1150. Unprecedented weakened atmospheric circulation over western Central Asia are inferred during ca. AD 1180–1210 and AD 1265–1310 with a considerable decrease in dust storm frequency, sedimentation rates, lamination thickness and detrital inputs (screened at 40-μm resolution). Our results are concurrent with changes in the intensity of the Siberian High during the past 1400 yr as reported in the GISP2 Ice Core from Greenland.

    Description: The Iberian–Roman Humid Period (IRHP, 2600–1600 cal yr BP), is the most humid phase of the last 4000 yr in southern Spain as recorded in the sedimentary sequence of Zoñar Lake (37°29′00″N, 4°41′22″ W, 300 m a.s.l.). A varve chronology supported by several AMS 14C dates allows study of the lake evolution at annual scale in response to human impact and climate changes. There are four climate phases within this period: i) gradual transition (2600–2500 yr ago, 650–550 BC) from a previous arid period; ii) the most humid interval during the Iberian–Early Roman Epoch (2500–2140 yr ago, 550–190 BC); iii) an arid interval during the Roman Empire Epoch (2140–1800 yr ago, 190 BC AD 150); and iv) a humid period synchronous with the decline of the Roman Empire (1800–1600 yr ago, AD 150–350). Varve thickness and geochemical proxies show a multi-decadal cyclicity similar to modern North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) (60, 20 years) and solar variability cycles (11 yr). The timing and the structure of this humid period is similar to that described in Eastern Mediterranean and northern European sites and supports the same large-scale climate control for northern latitudes and the Mediterranean region.
