Abstract:Abstract. Uncertainties in projections from Earth system models (ESMs) are associated to a large degree with the imperfect representation of the marine plankton ecosystem, in particular the physiology of primary and secondary producers. Here we describe the implementation of an optimality-based plankton-ecosystem model (OPEM) with variable C:N:P stoichiometry in the University of Victoria ESM (UVic) and the behaviour of two calibrated reference configurations, which differ in the assumed temperature dependence… Show more
