| Resumo: |
The central ridge structure of a first-order reversal curve (FORC) distribution is indicative of uni-axial noninteracting single domain magnetic particles, which provides the opportunity to identify and characterize biogenic magnetic mineral remains (magnetofossils) in sediments. Recent studies have shown that magnetofossils are widespread in the geological record and that they carry useful environmental information and contribute to paleomagnetic recording, which makes it essential to quantify how these biogenic components contribute to the magnetic properties of sediments. We present results from six sedimentary sequences whose magnetic mineral assemblages contain a significant magnetofossil contribution. Using principal component analysis, we find that the central ridge properties exhibit both intra-sequnce and inter-sequence variability that may be ascribed to external environmental factors. While samples from individual sediment sequences tend to cluster together, there is a continuum of inter-sequence behavior that appears to be related to a variety of magnetofossil properties. We demonstrate the complexity of biogenic magnetic components in sedimentary environments, but also the power and potential of FORC central ridges for understanding magnetic mixtures and unraveling environmental information.
