Plankton-toxin interaction with a variable input nutrient.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple model of phytoplankton-zooplankton interaction with a periodic input nutrient is presented. The model is then used to study a nutrient-plankton interaction with a toxic substance that inhibits the growth rate of plankton populations. The effects of the toxin upon the existence, magnitude, and stability of the periodic solutions are discussed. Numerical simulations are also provided to illustrate analytical results and to compare more complicated dynamical behaviour.

Nutrient-phytoplankton-zooplankton models with a toxin
Models of nutrient-plankton interaction with a toxic substance that inhibits either the growth rate of phytoplankton, zooplankton or both populations are proposed and studied. For simplicity, it is assumed that both nutrient and the toxin have the same constant input and washout rate. The effects of toxin upon the existence, magnitude, and stability of the steady states are examined. Numerical ...
متن کاملNutrient-plankton interaction with a toxin in a variable input nutrient environment
Phytoplankton are microscopic plants that live in the ocean, sea or lake. Through photosynthesis, phytoplankton are responsible for much of the oxygen present in the Earth’s atmosphere. They convert inorganic materials into new organic compounds by the process of photosynthesis [14]. Hence the stocks of these tiny planktonic algae play a significant role for marine reserves and fishery manageme...
متن کاملPersistence and coexistence in zooplankton-phytoplankton-nutrient models with instantaneous nutrient recycling
We consider plankton-nutrient interaction models consisting of phytoplankton, herbivorous zooplankton and dissolved limiting nutrient with general nutrient uptake functions and instantaneous nutrient recycling. For the model with constant nutrient input and different constant washout rates, conditions for boundedness of the solutions, existence and stability of non-negative equilibria, as well ...
متن کاملOscillations in plankton models with nutrient recycling.
Plankton--nutrient interaction models with both instantaneous and delayed nutrient recycling are considered. The system consists of three components: autotrophic phytoplankton, herbivorous zooplankton and dissolved limiting nutrient. Local stability of the equilibria is analysed. It is shown that the positive equilibrium loses its stability when the nutrient input concentration passes through a...
متن کاملBifurcation Analysis of a Plankton Model with Discrete Delay
In this paper, a delayed plankton-nutrient interaction model consisting of phytoplankton, zooplankton and dissolved nutrient is considered. It is assumed that some species of phytoplankton releases toxin (known as toxin producing phytoplankton (TPP)) which is harmful for zooplankton growth and this toxin releasing process follows a discrete time variation. Using delay as bifurcation parameter, ...
