• Photosynthetic pathways in Bromeliaceae: phylogenetic and ecological significance of CAM and C3 based on carbon isotope ratios for 1893 species (2015, background): “Conversely, C3 species growing in arid, high-light environments tend to have less negative δ13C values, approaching −20‰ in hyper-arid deserts (Kohn, 2010), as the diffusional (primarily stomatal) limitation to the rate of CO2 fixation becomes progressively more important.”
• Evolution of habitat and environment of red deer (Cervus elaphus) during the Late-glacial and early Holocene in eastern France (French Jura and the western Alps) using multi-isotope analysis (δ13C, δ15N, δ18O, δ34S) of archaeological remains (2011, background): “Moreover, the effect of temperature change on carbon isotope fractionation in plants can be considered asminor (Diefendorf et al., 2010; Kohn, 2010).”
• Extracting the most from terrestrial plant-derived n-alkyl lipids and their carbon isotopes from the sedimentary record: A review (2017, background): “Kohn (2010) provides a paleoprecipitation proxy based on observed changes in plant d13C values with changes in mean annual precipitation.”
• Ice-age megafauna in Arctic Alaska: extinction, invasion, survival (2013, background): “…vegetation types, as opposed to more depleted ones as would be predicted by global patterns of d13C and precipitation (Diefendorf et al., 2010; Kohn, 2010), we can only point out that isotope fractionation occurs through multiple interacting processes and that the patterns exhibited in local…”
• Stable isotope insights (δ18O, δ13C) into cattle and sheep husbandry at Bercy (Paris, France, 4th millennium BC): birth seasonality and winter leaf foddering (2012, background): “Kohn (2010) recently recommended the d13C value of 231?”
• Ferns in an Angiosperm World: Cretaceous Radiation into the Epiphytic Niche and Diversification on the Forest Floor (2012, background): “Interpretation of carbon isotope data can be complex; however, this same pattern held even when we added hundreds of data points from across multiple ecosystems (see Kohn 2010).”
