| Method |
Multiplying the density of the photochemical reaction centres (BNID 105044,105045) by the maximum specific reaction rate (BNID 105050,105051) gives a flux rate of energised product on an area basis. For rhodopsin this is ~0.95 µmol H+/(m^2×s^1), whereas for oxygenic photosynthesis it is ~1.5 µmol electron/(m^2×s^1) moved from water to NADP+ and 4.5 µmol H+/(m^2×s^1) (H+ : electron = 3: Falkowski and Raven 2007) (Table link). |
