A stoichiometrically derived algal growth model and its global analysis
Organisms are composed of multiple chemical elements such as carbon,nitrogen, and phosphorus. The scarcity of any of these elements canseverely restrict organismal and population growth. However, manytrophic interaction models only consider carbon limitation viaenergy flow. In this paper, we constru...

| description | Organisms are composed of multiple chemical elements such as carbon,nitrogen, and phosphorus. The scarcity of any of these elements canseverely restrict organismal and population growth. However, manytrophic interaction models only consider carbon limitation viaenergy flow. In this paper, we construct an algal growth model withthe explicit incorporation of light and nutrient availability tocharacterize both carbon and phosphorus limitations. We provide aglobal analysis of this model to illustrate how light and nutrientavailability regulate algal dynamics. |
