Different carbon isotope fractionation patterns during the development of phototrophic freshwater and marine biofilms

Natural phototrophic biofilms are influenced by a broad array of abiotic and biotic factors and vary over temporal and spatial scales. Different developmental stages can be distinguished and growth rates will vary due to the thickening of the biofilm, which is expected to lead to a limitation of lig...
