Summary |
"Modelling of marine ecosystems is a rapidly developing branch of interdisciplinary oceanographic research. The book gives a first consistent and comprehensive introduction to the development of models of marine ecosystems." "The book describes how biological model components can be integrated into three dimensional circulation models and how such models can be used for 'numerical experiments'. For this discussion the Baltic Sea has been chosen as an example system, implying that the described models have site-specific aspects. However, the models have also universal aspects and the understanding of the approach can be a useful guide for model development in other marine areas."--BOOK JACKET |
