Modeling the Dynamics of Chlorophyll-a in Bohai Bay Using a Bayesian Network Approach
Abstract:
The relative importance of chemical, physical and ecological processes in driving phytoplankton dynamics is poorly understood in Bohai Bay. Here we developed a Bayesian network (BN) model to integrate many of these processes and model the growth of chlorophyll-a in coastal area of Bohai Bay. BNs use probabilistic relationships rather than deterministic rules to quantify the cause and effect assumptions. The result shows that predictions of the model have an average accuracy of 65%, and chlorophyll-a dynamics were primarily driven by nutrients rather than physical environment and biological system. High concentration of nutrients was the suitable environmental condition for harmful algal blooms (HABs).
