内容記述 | Anthropogenic Pu isotopes are important geochemical tracers for sediment studies. Their distributions and sources in the water columns as well as the sediments of the North Pacific have been intensively studied; however, information about Pu in the Southeast Asian seas is limited. To study the isotopic composition of Pu, and thus to identify its sources, we collected sediment core samples in the South China Sea and the Sulu Sea during the KH-96-5 Cruise of the R/V Hakuho Maru. We analysed the activities of 239+240Pu and the atom ratios of 240Pu/239Pu using isotope dilution sector-field inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (SF-ICP-MS). The 240Pu/239Pu atom ratios in the sediments of both areas (inventory-weighted mean: 0.251 for the South China Sea and 0.280 for the Sulu Sea) were higher than the global fallout value (0.178+/-0.019), suggesting the existence of Pu from the Pacific Proving Grounds in the North Pacific. Low inventories of 239+240Pu in sediments were observed in the South China Sea (3.75 Bq/m2) and the Sulu Sea (1.38 Bq/m2). Most of the Pu input is still present in the water column. Scavenging and benthic mixing processes were considered to be the main processes controlling the distribution of Pu in the deep-sea sediments of both study areas. | |||||
