Notes | In this project, native seagrass was studied in summer and in winter using carbon-13 as a tracer to monitor changes in carbon uptake. βThe results provide important estimates of carbon uptake and translocation that can be used to better understand whole plant carbon budgets as well as the transfer of seagrass-derived carbon to other trophic communities.β (from the Abstract) |
