Lasaga, A.C. and Gibbs, G.V. (1991). AB initio studies of the kinetic isotope effect of the CH₄ + OH• atmospheric reaction. Geophysical Research Letters 18: doi: 10.1029/90GL02679. issn: 0094-8276.

High level ab initio calculations have been carried out on the 13C-12C kinetic isotope effect of the CH4+OH reaction in the atmosphere. The results agree quite well with both the absolute value of the isotope effect and the temperature dependence of the effect based on new experimental data. The calculated kinetic isotope effect supports a bigger effect of biomas burning on the methane global budget. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1991
