Assessment of Explicit Representation of Dynamic Viral Processes in Regional Marine Ecological Models

Viruses, the most abundant microorganisms in the ocean, play important roles in marine ecosystems, mainly by killing their hosts and contributing to nutrient recycling. However, in models simulating ecosystems in real marine environments, the virus-mediated mortality (VMM) rates of their hosts are i...
