Seagrass decline
05/04/2013 by jgluvna
It is believed that more than one environmental factor (total N, total P, salinity, and turbidity) is having a negative effect on seagrass coverage in Tampa Bay. Create an equation/model that predicts how the coverage of seagrass in Tampa Bay will be affected by an increase of at least two of the environmental factors (total N, total P, salinity, and turbidity) measured.
Theory
- Partial derivatives (Neuhauser, Claudia. Calculus for Biology and Medicine. New Jersey: Prentice Hall, 2000. 526)
- Functions of two or more variables (Neuhauser, Claudia. Calculus for Biology and Medicine. New Jersey: Prentice Hall, 2000. 526)
- Chain rule for functions of two variables (Neuhauser, Claudia. Calculus for Biology and Medicine. New Jersey: Prentice Hall, 2000. 543)
