Individual-based modelling of the population dynamics of Metridia lucens
An individual-based population dynamics model (IBM) was used to examine the effect of different behavioral, bioenergetic, and physiological assumptions on individual growth and development of the copepod, Metridia lucens, in the North Atlantic Ocean. Both intrinsic (nutritional condition, feeding hi...
