Abstract:
An individual-based model (IBM) based on existing knowledge of growth and life history of Calanus glacialis is implemented and
coupled to the an ecosystem model system encompassing physics, a nutrients–phytoplankton–zooplankton–detritus (NPZD) model and an IBM of
the Atlantic congener C.finmarchicus. The model is used to study the development and spatial distribution of C.glacialis and the
dynamics between zooplankton and their environment.
