- abstract = "Two algorithms of evolutionary computation, an algebraic function model and a rule-based model, were applied for model development with respect to 8 years of limnological data from the lower Nakdong River. The aim of the modelling was to reproduce the abundances of the phytoplankton species, Microcystis aeruginosa, based on physical, chemical and meteorological parameters. The algebraic function model overestimated or underestimated abundance values, but correctly recognised the timing of high abundances. The rule-based model detected not only the timing of algal blooms well but also the magnitude of abundances. Sensitivity analysis indicates that high water temperature influences high abundances of M. aruginosa. In addition, dissolved oxygen, pH, nitrate and phosphate are shown to be explainable in relation to deoxygeneration, carbon dioxide transformation and nutrient limitations.",
