1. The emergence of life from iron monosulphide bubbles at a submarine hydrothermal redox and pH front.
PMID:日期:1997-05Here we argue that life emerged on Earth from a redox and pH front at c. 4.2 Ga. This front occurred where hot (c. 150 degrees C), extremely reduced, alkaline, bisulphide-bearing, submarine seepage waters interfaced with the acid, warm (c. 90 degrees C), iron-hearing Hadean ocean. The low pH of the ocean was imparted by the ten bars of CO2 considered to dominate the Hadean atmosphere/hydrosphere. Disequilibrium between the two solutions was maintained by the spontaneous precipitation of a colloidal FeS membrane. Iron monosulphide bubbles comprising this membrane were inflated by the hydrothermal solution upon sulphide mounds at the seepage sites. Our hypothesis is that the FeS membrane, laced with nickel, acted as a semipermeable catalytic boundary between the two fluids, encouraging synthesis of organic anions by hydrogenation and carboxylation of hydrothermal organic primers. The ocean provided carbonate, phosphate, iron, nickel and protons; the hydrothermal solution was the source of ammonia, acetate, HS-, H2 and tungsten, as well as minor concentrations of organic sulphides and perhaps cyanide and acetaldehyde. The mean redox potential (delta Eh) across the membrane, with the energy to drive synthesis, would have approximated to 300 millivolts. The generation of organic anions would have led to an increase in osmotic pressure within the FeS bubbles. Thus osmotic pressure could take over from hydraulic pressure as the driving force for distension, budding and reproduction of the bubbles. Condensation of the organic molecules to polymers, particularly organic sulphides, was driven by pyrophosphate hydrolysis. Regeneration of pyrophosphate from the monophosphate in the membrane was facilitated by protons contributed from the Hadean ocean. This was the first use by a metabolizing system of protonmotive force (driven by natural delta pH) which also would have amounted to c. 300 millivolts. Protonmotive force is the universal energy transduction mechanism of life. Taken together with the redox potential across the membrane, the total electrochemical and chemical energy available for protometabolism amounted to a continuous supply at more than half a volt. The role of the iron sulphide membrane in keeping the two solutions separated was appropriated by the newly synthesized organic sulphide polymers. This organic take-over of the membrane material led to the miniaturization of the metabolizing system. Information systems to govern replication could have developed penecontemporaneously in this same milieu. But iron, sulphur and phosphate, inorganic components of earliest life, continued to be involved in metabolism.

2. Isotopic biogeochemistry of the Oxford Clay Formation (Jurassic), UK.
2. 英国牛津黏土组（侏罗纪）的同位素生物地球化学PMID:日期:1994A total of 165 samples was obtained from the Oxford Clay Formation at seven different sites. Nearly all were from the Peterborough Member (Lower Oxford Clay), but seven were from the Stewartby and Weymouth Members (Middle and Upper Oxford Clay respectively). Five samples from the underlying Kellaways Formation were also examined. Stratigraphic relationships were estimated on the basis of ammonite subzones and results from all locations can be placed along a single stratigraphic scale. The following were determined for all samples: abundance and isotopic composition of organic carbon, abundances of carbonate carbon and total sulphur, and the Rock-Eval pyrolysis parameters hydrogen index, oxygen index and Tmax. For a subset of eight samples selected to be representative of geochemical and apparent palaeoenvironmental variations, soluble organic compounds were extracted and the isotopic composition of pristane, phytane, and long-chain n-alkanes determined by isotope-ratio-monitoring gas chromatograph mass spectrometry. Concentrations of organic carbon in samples from the Peterborough Member ranged from 0.5 to 16.6 % and delta values of total organic carbon (TOC) ranged from -27.7 to -23.1% v. PDB. Shales dominated by epifaunal bivalve assemblages have high concentrations of TOC and values of H index approaching 800, indicating preservation of hydrogen-rich organic material. Conversely, shell beds and calcareous and silty clay beds have lower abundances of TOC and values of H index dropping below 100, indicating extensive oxidation of the organic matter. Isotopic composition of pristane and phytane in the Peterborough and Stewartby Members average -31.7%, those in the Weymouth Member average -29.8. Values of delta for long-chain n-alkanes average -28%. Together these results indicate delta values for primary inputs as follows: terrestrial vascular plants, -23.5%; Peterborough Member algae, -28.2; Stewartby Member algae, -29.1%; Weymouth Member algae, -26.6% Comparison of primary delta values to those of TOC indicates that in some cases secondary processes enriched TOC relative to primary inputs by as much as 4%. Paleontological evidence in these same beds indicates development of extensive food-webs and supports attribution of this isotopic enrichment to heterotrophic reworking.

3. Periodicity in extinction and the problem of catastrophism in the history of life.
3. 生物灭绝的周期性及生命历史中的灾变论问题PMID:日期:1989The hypothesis that extinction events have recurred periodically over the last quarter billion years is greatly strengthened by new data on the stratigraphic ranges of marine animal genera. In the interval from the Permian to Recent, these data encompass some 13,000 generic extinctions, providing a more sensitive indicator of species-level extinctions than previously used familial data. Extinction time series computed from the generic data display nine strong peaks that are nearly uniformly spaced at 26 Ma intervals over the last 270 Ma. Most of these peaks correspond to extinction events recognized in more detailed, if limited, biostratigraphic studies. These new data weaken or negate most arguments against periodicity, which have involved criticisms of the taxonomic data base, sampling intervals, chronometric time scales, and statistical methods used in previous analyses. The criticisms are reviewed in some detail and various new calculations and simulations, including one assessing the effects of paraphyletic taxa, are presented. Although the new data strengthen the case for periodicity, they offer little new insight into the deriving mechanism behind the pattern. However, they do suggest that many of the periodic events may not have been catastrophic, occurring instead over several stratigraphic stages or substages.
