TRANSIENT DYNAMICS OF A STOICHIOMETRIC CYANOBACTERIA MODEL VIA MULTIPLE-SCALE ANALYSIS
-

Cyanobacterial (CB) blooms are becoming a global concern due to the increasing
prevalence of eutrophication. The dependence of CB dynamics on phosphorus and light inputs is
modeled via a stoichiometric approach. The dynamics occur in distinct phases that allow us to make
use of multiple timescale analysis to uncover the driving mechanisms of each phase. As a result,
we are able to approximate the length of time a bloom persists. This framework helps to establish
the use of multiscale methods in stoichiometric models and provides deeper understanding of CB
dynamics. -
