Total Balance of Properties in the Estuary
Phytoplankton [tonC/year]
Ammonia [tonC/year]
Nitrate [tonC/year]
[1]-Total annual balance of phytoplankton, ammonia and nitrate, in the reference situation. The total balance represents the difference between input and output fluxes computed by the model.
