High precision measurements of triple isotopic composition of oxygen in the air trapped in ice cores is a useful tool to infer the global gross biosphere productivity in the past. The isotopic composition of oxygen is influenced by many physical, chemical and biological processes during consumption and production of oxygen by the oceanic and terrestrial biosphere. For an accurate quantification of the past biosphere productivity, it is thus important to determine the different fractionation processes occurring in the biosphere during respiration and photosynthesis processes.We present here quantification of fractionation coefficients associated with δ180 and the D170 of 02 during respiration and photosynthesis within the terrestrial biosphere. The experimental set-up relies on closed biological chambers in which all the environmental parameters are controlled and measured. Triple isotopic composition of oxygen is regularly measured through sampling of small aliquots at a low frequency (4 h to 4 days). Seven 2-month long experiments were performed in order to check the reproducibility of our set-up and quantify uncertainty on the determination of the fractionation coefficients.In order to improve our set-up for future experiments using different plants, we also present perspectives for a continuous measurement of the isotopic composition of oxygen using optical spectroscopy (Optical Feedback Cavity Enhanced Absorption Spectroscopy (OF-CEAS) technique). This instrument is currently being characterized and we will present its current performances.Triple isotopic composition of oxygen in the atmospheric dioxygen to reconstruct the dynamic of global biosphere productivity in the past from measurements in biological chambers. |
