Temperature-dependent carbon isotope fractionation in coccolithophores

Temperature-dependent carbon isotope fractionation in coccolithophores

Introduction: The stable carbon isotope ratio of long-chain alkenones produced by marine haptophyte phytoplankton has often been used to estimate past variations in atmospheric CO2 throughout the Cenozoic. However, previous experimental studies and surveys of alkenones from surface sediment and susp...
