Presently, however, these mitigating effects are mixed due to intense
diel cycling of CO2 driven by aerobic metabolism.
In a study recently published in Frontiers in Microbiology, PNNL scientists Young - Mo Kim, Jim Fredrickson, and Tom Metz demonstrated the effect that sunlight or the absence thereof over a 24 - hour period -
the diel cycle - has on the production of chemicals used as metabolites in the microbial mats of Mushroom Springs in Yellowstone National Park.
During five
diel cycles TCO2 variation was characterized by nocturnal production and diurnal consumption.
