- W4221122644 abstract "<p>The intertrappean sediments and the bole beds of the Deccan volcanic province hold clues to the climatic condition in India during the Cretaceous/Paleocene transition. Earlier isotopic studies of the bulk clays from the &#8216;bole beds&#8217; showed that the rainwater composition was lighter (&#948;<sup>18</sup>O &#160;-8&#8240;) relative to the present-day (&#948;<sup>18</sup>O ~ -5&#8240;). This was ascribed to an increase in the rainfall (amount effect). However, later reconstruction of the mean annual precipitation (MAP) from the intertrappean paleosol carbonates suggested that the amount was no different than the modern-day precipitation. One possible reason for this disagreement can be due to the low preservation potential of proxies used in these studies. The present study was carried out by analysing authigenic silica which is resistant to post-depositional modifications. Such silica deposits are abundant throughout the Deccan intertrappean sediments occurring as cherts, chertified limestone and silicified fossils. They form during the interaction of silica-rich water with the existing sediments or fossils, the silica being derived by leaching of the volcanic ash by surface run-off and/or from siliceous hydrothermal waters. Silicified woods were analyzed for their triple oxygen isotope ratios (expressed as &#948;<sup>17</sup>O and &#948;<sup>18</sup>O) to determine the silicification temperature and the isotopic composition of the silicifying fluid. The distribution of the obtained silicification temperature and water composition of diverse samples indicates a widely variable silicification environment. The silicification took place at temperatures from 25&#176;C&#160; (near surface temperature) &#160;to 90&#176;C (at relatively shallower levels of 50-100 m). In addition, the &#948;<sup>18</sup>O (VSMOW) values of silicification fluid varied from -14&#8240; to near 0&#8240;. The geological, floral and faunal evidence suggest deposition of these woods in a continental fluvio-lacustrine environment. Isotope modelling of the data suggest a two-component fluid mixing between hydrothermal water and a lake water. Assuming this fluid to be derived from a mixture of meteoric water and volcanic hydrothermal water, the &#948;<sup>18</sup>O value of the local meteoric water is estimated to be -14&#8240; to -12&#8240;. These values are lower by about 9&#8240; to 7&#8240; compared to today (mean annual &#948;<sup>18</sup>O over central India being ~-5&#8240;). We ascribe this to an increase in the mean annual rainfall by about 400 mm. It is possible that the late cretaceous precipitation increased due to the warming caused by a high CO<sub>2</sub> environment.</p>" @default.
