AI Technical Summary
Existing seagrass carbon isotope labeling methods cannot achieve long-term in-situ labeling in tidal fluctuations and flooded environments, and the labeling solution is unevenly distributed, which cannot meet the needs of scientific research.
Design a device comprising a main body, a support structure, a wave-breaking structure, a stirring structure, a liquid inlet structure, a liquid outlet structure, and a sealing structure, which utilizes the dynamic force of tidal flow to achieve liquid stirring and sealing, ensuring uniform distribution of the labeled solution.
Achieving stable labeling in intertidal and subtidal environments expands the applicability range, improves the stability of the labeling process and isotope signal accumulation, and enhances the detection signal-to-noise ratio.
