Plankton dynamics of the open Southern Ocean and surrounding the (Sub)Antarctic islands
… of global ocean CO2 absorption annually. Marine plankton play a major role in the Southern Ocean CO2 sink as they fix dissolved atmospheric CO2 into organic carbon biomass, much of which supports the ocean food web and a portion of which sinks into the ocean interior, thereby removing atmospheric …

An ecological study of waste stabilization ponds in Werribee, Australia, with special reference to nutrient and plankton dynamics
… at the Werribee Treatment Complex. The nutrient dynamics and the prevailing ecological processes in the ponds were investigated. The findings showed that the quality of the effluent was largely controlled by the detention time of the system (cf Meron et al, 1965). In particular, prolonged …

A modeling study of the marine biogeochemistry, plankton dynamics, and carbon cycle on the continental shelf off the West Antarctic Peninsula
… and temporal variability observed in the phytoplankton bloom in the WAP is influenced by variability in the glacial sources of dissolved iron. Seasonal progression of the phytoplankton bloom is well represented in the model, and values of vertically integrated net primary production (NPP) are …

Population Dynamics and Pattern Formation in an Info-chemical Mediated Tri-trophic Plankton Model
… study a spatio–temporal prey–predator model of plankton. This model has spatial interaction terms which represent a plankton dynamics that includes info–chemical mediated trophic interactions. We consider both a simplified two species model which has been studied in the literature (mostly in …

Accounting for unpredictable spatial variability in plankton ecosystem models
… to predict fine-scale spatial variability in plankton ecosystems can<br/>seriously compromise our ability to predict coarse-scale behaviour. Spatial variability which<br/>is deterministically unpredictable may distort parameter estimates when the ecosystem model<br/>is fitted to (or …

Predator-prey dynamics under the influence of exogenous and endogenous regulation : a data-based modeling study on spring plankton with respect to climate change
… of ecological research. In this thesis, spring dynamics of phytoplankton and its consumers, zooplankton, were considered in dependence on the environmental conditions in a deep lake (Lake Constance) and a shallow marine water (mesocosms from Kiel Bight), using descriptive statistics, multiple …
