hemisphere and tree ring 14C signatures from 1900 through 2000 for various

Figure 7. Seasonal pattern of tissue 14C signatures
within two herbaceous plants grown in 2000. The x-axis is arbitrary
and the temporal arrangement of high signatures may nor may not actually
agree between plants. Microstegium is a C4 plant and Solidago
a C3.
