Simulation Modeling of Zooplankton and Benthos in Reservoirs: Documentation and Development of Model Constructs.

Abstract

A literature review and analysis of published data on zooplankton and benthos bioenergetics form the basis used in this report for the development of stochastic model constructs for the simulation of zooplankton and benthos dynamics in reservoirs. Parameters reviewed and modeled were selected from the mass balance equation. (Author)
