Technical Note: A generic law-of-the-minimum flux limiter for simulating substrate limitation in biogeochemical models

We present a generic flux limiter to account for mass limitations from an arbitrary number of substrates in a biogeochemical reaction network. The flux limiter is based on the observation that substrate (e.g., nitrogen, phosphorus) limitation in biogeochemical models can be represented as to ensure...
