Multi-Scale Modeling of Intensive Macroalgae Cultivation and Marine Nitrogen Sequestration

摘要: Abstract Multi-scale macroalgae growth models are required for the efficient design of sustainable, economically viable and environmentally safe farms. Here, we develop a multi-scale model Ulva sp. nitrogen sequestration in an intensive cultivation farm, regulated by temperature, light nutrients. The incorporates range scales incorporating spatial effects two steps: extinction at reactor scale (1 m) nutrient absorption farm km). was validated on real data from experimental installed sea. Biomass production rates, chemical compositions removal were simulated under different seasons, levels dilution environment water-exchange rate reactor. This provides important tool environmental authorities seaweed farmers who desire to upscale large bioremediation and/or biomass farms, thus promoting marine sustainable development macroalgae-based bioeconomy.
