Fractionation of carbon isotopes in oxygenic photosynthesis values more similar to C3 plants. In contrast to terrestrial plants, where CO diffusion in air is relatively fast and typically not limiting, diffusion of dissolved CO in water is considerably slower and can often limit carbon fixation in phytoplankton. As gaseous CO is dissolved into aqueous CO, it is fractionated by both kinetic and equilibrium effects that are temperature-dependent. Relative to plants, the dissolved CO source for phytoplankton can be enriched in C by about 8‰ from atmospheric CO. Isotope fractionation of C by phytoplankton photosynthesis is affected by the diffusion of extracellular aqueous CO into the cell, the
What I Can Do for You What I Can Do for You "What I Can Do for You" is a single by Sheryl Crow from the album "Tuesday Night Music Club" released on A&M Records. It was originally released in 1993 and the single includes a rare speedier version of LP track "The Na-Na Song" (i.e. "Volvo Cowgirl 99").
