Handbook of Scaling Methods in Aquatic Ecology: Measurement, ...
In this chapter, we assume that behavioral changes of a plankter emerge from its
internal state changes. We describe plankter behavior as an instance of
macroscopic properties and the plankter's internal states as lower-level units of
an ...

The Ecology of Phytoplankton
Yet the physical scale is such that individuals of most categories of plankter (

Chance in Biology: Using Probability to Explore Nature
Any plankter that strikes the seafloor is assumed to be consumed, and the
seafloor thus constitutes an absorbing boundary. What about the sea surface? If

A Mechanistic Approach to Plankton Ecology
We shall consider two models, one that describes the plankter as a translating
sphere under the action of a body force at low Re and one in which the moving
plankter is considered a self-propelled body and is approximated by a "force
dipole.
