Abstract

Different model formulations in available models were compared with Microplankton-Detritus (MPB) model, and well documented FDM and ERSEM models were the candidate for these comparison. Different formulations in both candidate models were expressed in terms of MPD parameterization. Even though there are differences in the control of autotroph growth among models, it was found that some of the more important microplankton parameters expressed incomparable terms have broadly similar values in all the models. However, an important difference was proved to be the direct contribution of microheterotrophs to the Detritus compartment in FDM and ERSEM, whereas in MPD microplankton biomass passes to Detritus only by way of mesozooplankton grazing.
