Biological data assimilation for parameter estimation of a phytoplankton functional type model for the western North Pacific

Ecosystem models are used to understand ecosystem dynamics and ocean biogeochemical cycles and require optimum physiological parameters to best represent biological behaviours. These physiological parameters are often tuned up empirically, while ecosystem models have evolved to increase the numb...
