Abstract

A theoretical approach is used to investigate the quantitative and qualitative effects of the flocculation and break-up of aggregates of phytoplankton. The importance of these processes in the study of fish recruitment is discussed. Furthermore, results indicate that fragmentation and coagulation dynamics do not play a significant role in the overall evolution of the phytoplankton population.
