[Auszug] The use of stable carbon isotope ratios as palaeoclimatic indicators is based on the different ecological requirements of the C3 and C4 plant types that have widely differing 13C/12C ratios. C3 and C4 plants, separated on the basis of their photosynthetic pathways of carbon fixation, typically have ...
