Deterministic model for marine algal population density.

A mechanistic analysis of density dependence in algal population dynamics

Population density regulation is a fundamental principle in ecology, but the specific process underlying functional expression of density dependence remains to be fully elucidated. One view contends that patterns of density dependence are largely fixed across a species irrespective of environmental conditions, whereas another is that the strength and expression of density dependence are fundame...

The Giant Clam as a Model Animal for Study of Marine Algal-Invertebrate Associations

CORAL reefs are found in tropical waters and constitute 15% of the world's shallow sea floor (0-30 m). Their biogenesis is a result of calcification by either plants. or animals which harbour zooxanthellae; symbiotic unicellular dinoftagellates of the genus Symbiodinium. A major focus in recent reef research has been the study of this symbiotic association between algae and host at the cell bio...

Varinace-Based Sensitivity Analysis of Deterministic Model

‎The study of many scientific and natural phenomena in laboratory condition is sometimes impossible‎, ‎therefore theire expresed by mathemathical models and simulated by complex computer models (codes)‎. ‎Running a computer model with different inputs is called a computer expriment‎. ‎Statistical issues allocated a wide range of applications for computer expriment to itself‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎...
