Evaluation of the biodegradation of Alaska North Slope oil in microcosms using the biodegradation model BIOB

We present the details of a numerical model, BIOB that is capable of simulating the biodegradation of oil entrapped in the sediment. The model uses Monod kinetics to simulate the growth of bacteria in the presence of nutrients and the subsequent consumption of hydrocarbons. The model was used to sim...
