Abstract
Following early modelling attempts by Sverdrup, Riley, Steele and others during the 1940s to 1960s, many ecosystem models for a variety of marine environments have been developed during the last 4 decades. These ecosystem models represent an evolution from simple models with 1 or 2 dimensions to more complex models with many dimensions. Recently three-dimensional, time-dependent ecosystem models have been developed (Walsh, 1988; Sarmiento et al., 1989). To some extent ecosystem model development has been hindered because biological and chemical data from coastal and ocean ecosystems are usually limited in time and space coverage. Continuous monitoring systems (Armstrong et al., 1967) supply more complete coverage of variables, such as temperature, salinity, chlorophyll fluorescence, and nutrients; however, these data are. usually still limited by ship location.
