Abstract:
|
Numerical analysis has been shown as an important tool in
studying the dynamics of harmful algal blooms, exploring the
causes, mechanism and prediction of red tides. In this paper,
various multivariate statistical methods and biophysical models
are reviewed in examining the roles of biological, chemical,
physical factors and biological-physical interactions in red
tides. These models have achieved some degrees of success in
describing the underlying dynamical processes. However,
relatively poor knowledge about physiological responses of bloom
species to the physical field has greatly limited the predictive
ability of existing models. The improvement of existing models
will depend on a better understanding of the physical,
physiological, and ecological processes and their interactions. |
