Mathematical Modelling and Analysis of Harmful Algal Bloom

The phenomenon of phytoplankton blooms has garnered significant interest from the scientific community over several years, due to their profound impact on aquatic ecosystems and global environmental processes. This thesis primarily focuses on the study of the bloom dynamics through the construction of some phytoplankton-zooplankton interaction models, especially paying attention to some climatic or environmental factors namely solar radiation, sea surface temperature, and flow-induced hydrodynamic disturbance. The outcome of the research work is enriched from both mathematical and biological standpoints.
