Lake T Phytoplankton Zooplankton Dynamics Model

Download Model ↓

Objective: Simulate coupled phytoplankton-zooplankton dynamics in Lake Thonotosassa, Florida. Extends the DM-14 water quality configuration with a mesozooplankton group that grazes on simulated green algae, demonstrating predator-prey cycling.

Dimensions: 2D (depth-averaged, 1 layer)

Grid: 355 horizontal cells

Run Period: 180 days (Julian days 182-362)

Activated Modules: Hydrodynamics, Temperature, Water quality, Zooplankton
