The carbon isotopic composition of marine kerogen is thought to                 be primarily controlled by COz availability. And yet almost no                  experimental data exists on the effects of different COz levels                 on carbon isotopic fractionation. Funds are provided for a two                  years' study to examine the effects of increased pCOz levels on                 the Fractionation of carbon isotopes of phytoplankton during                    phytosynthesis using marine mesocosm system at URI Marine                       Ecosystem Research lab. Experiment will employ 4 mesocosm tanks                 for up to 16 months. Each tank will be held at differing but                    constant TCOz, pCOz, and pH levels. Weekly estimates of                         productivity will be made and temperature, salinity , nutrients,                etx. will be monitored to learn about the phytoplanktonic                       response of carbon isotopic franctionation to increased pCOz                    level.
