  • Hydrogen isotopic composition of C₃₇ alkenones and the ecology and physiology of coccolithophores

    Creator:
    Wolhowe, Matthew D.
    Abstract:
    A three-part study was conducted into the impact of physiological and ecological variables on the net isotopic fractionation of hydrogen, α[subscript K₃₇], expressed in C₃₇ alkenones. First, alkenone-producer production, abundance, and export were characterized in the summertime Gulf of California and Eastern Tropical North Pacific using compound-specific, labeled in situ...
