Modern eutrophication modeling of the Chesapeake Bay commenced in 1987. Recently, refinements were made to the 1993 Chesapeake Bay Estuary Model Package (CBEMP) including increased grid resolution, inclusion of the continental shelf at the Bay mouth, direct simulation of living resources, and extension of the validation period. This paper addresses the refined phytoplankton kinetics.
