Rational Multivariate Algal Growth Kinetics

Publication: Journal of the Sanitary Engineering Division
Volume 97, Issue 1

Abstract

In general, bioassay results showing that the relationship between growth rates and nutrient concentrations that are applicable to mathematical models of the eutrophication process are limited. Among various laboratories, two environmental parameters that most frequently differ in algal assay results are light intensity and temperature. An attempt is made herein to modify the most commonly used expression to describe algal growth kinetics to correct for temperature and light intensity.
