Kinetic modeling of the light‐dependent photosynthetic activity of the green microalga Chlorella vulgaris
Abstract
Light-dependent photosynthesis of Chlorella vulgaris was investigated by using a novel photosynthesis measurement system that could cover wide ranges of incident light and cell density and reproduce accurate readings. Various photosynthesis models, which have been reported elsewhere, were classified and/or reformulated based upon the underlying hypotheses of the light dependence of the algal photosynthesis. Four types of models were derived, which contained distinct light-related variables such as the average or local photon flux density (APFD or LPFD) and the average or local photon absorption rate (APAR or LPAR). According to our experimental results, the LPFD and LPAR models could predict the experimental data more accurately although the APFD and APAR models have been widely used for the kinetic study of microalgal photosynthesis.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
