摘要: The marine ecosystem is strongly driven by physical processes. In turn it influences the physical environment by hindering the penetration of radiation down the water column, and altering the chemical balances within the ocean and atmosphere; examples of these processes are described. This paper discusses the problem of incorporating these couplings in ocean models. Different methods of representing physical structure and physical forcing are reviewed and the difficulties of deciding on ecosystem compartments discussed …
