Prediction of pelagic calcification rates using satellite measurements

TL;DR: A technique for directly measuring coccolithophore calcification using 14C was first described four decades ago by Paasche et al. as discussed by the authors, who analyzed 10 datasets of 14C- or 45Ca-based calcification and photosynthesis and derived a calcification algorithm based on day length, sample depth, sea surface temperature, chlorophyll a concentration, and suspended calcite concentration.

Radiative lifetimes and quenching rate coefficients for directly excited rotational levels of OH (A 2Σ+,v′=0)

TL;DR: In this article, a narrowbandwidth pulsed dye laser was used to excite OH X 2Pi i radicals to the A 2Sigma(+) state by pumping in the (0, 0) vibrational band around 308 nm.
