Ups and Downs in the Ocean: Effects of Biofouling on Vertical Transport of Microplastics
TL;DR: The first theoretical model that is capable of simulating the effect of biofouling on the fate of microplastic, based on settling, biofilm growth, and ocean depth profiles for light, water density, temperature, salinity, and viscosity is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Growth kinetic models for microalgae cultivation: A review
TL;DR: This review study aims to provide an overview of the existing growth kinetic models for microalgae cultivation and identify knowledge gaps and develops a generalized growth model for incorporation of species diversity for more realistic modeling of actual systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microalgal-bacterial aggregates: Applications and perspectives for wastewater treatment.
TL;DR: The use of microalgal-bacterial aggregates (MABAs) to overcome harvesting issues and to enhance resource recovery is presented and the most recent findings and the challenges facing this technology towards its consolidation are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biodiesel production from microalgae: Processes, technologies and recent advancements
TL;DR: In this paper, the optimal bioenvironmental conditions for microalgae cultivation, process design of algal biodiesel production, physicochemical properties of lipids extracted from micro algae and the properties of the produced biodiesel fuel, and the transesterification process are discussed.

Mathematical formulation of the relationship between photosynthesis and light for phytoplankton
Alan D. Jassby,Trevor Platt +1 more
TL;DR: Eight different mathematical formulations of the photosynthesis—light curve for phytoplankton were recast in terms of the same two parameters: the initial slope α, and the assimilation number PmB.
Journal ArticleDOI
The problem of overfitting.
TL;DR: The focus is on regression problems, which are those in which one of the measures, the dependent Variable, is of special interest, and the authors wish to explore its relationship with the other variables.
