Figure from Photosynthetic rhythmicity in an antarctic microbial mat and some considerations on polar circadian rhythms

Return to the article from which this figure is taken.

Diurnal pattern of photosynthesis in an Oscillatoracean mat from Bratina Island, 78°S on the McMurdo Shelf Ablation Zone. Corresponding levels of photosynthetically available radiation are shown. (mol/m2/s denotes micromoles per square meter per second. dpm denotes disintegrations per minute.)
