Sommario/riassunto

BLOOM, has been developed and applied since 1977. It simulates the biomass and composition of phytoplankton and macro algae in relation to the amount of nutrients, the under water light climate and grazing. This title describes the principles of the model, its validation and a number of representative applications.
