Abstract: The fraction of organic carbon burial(forg) is calculated on the basis of the carbon cycle model with the records of carbon isotope composition on both carbonate and organic matter in the late Permian at Xinmin section, and the abundance of acritachs, algae and microbes which represents marine primary paleoproductivity is examined. We discuss the relationship among forg, marine paleoproductivity and the content of residual TOC in details. Residual TOC is determined by the combinations of the primary productivity, organic carbon burial fraction(forg) and burial redox conditions. But the data in Xinmin section and Meishan section show that the paleoproductivity plays a dominant role on the value of residual TOC. But this conclusion still needs further proof: we found that  forg is mainly controlled by δ13Ccarb by Kump’s model, in which it concluded increased volcanism leads to only small changes in δ13Ccarb, and set the carbon isotope value of volcanic activity and weathering as δw =5‰. That is to say, a series of secondary environmental effects caused by volcanism were ignored, such as "volcanic winter", ocean acidification, smoke and other toxic substances and so on, all of which had great impact on the marine environment. However, largesized volcanism in the Late Permian could result in serious perturbation to marine carbon cycle. Therefore, the model still need to be further improved on calculating organic carbon burial fraction quantitatively or semiquantitatively during this special geological period.
