A Stochastic Model for the Synthesis and Degradation of Natural Organic Matter. Part I. Data Structures and Reaction Kinetics

Abstract: Here we present a stochastic biogeochemical model for the formation, transformation and mineralization of natural organic matter (NOM). The model is agent-based, with each software agent representing a single molecule of defined composition. Molecular properties and reactivities are estimated from composition and environmental parameters. Environmental parameters including temperature, pH, light intensity, dissolved O 2 , moisture and enzyme activities are user controlled. Time is treated in discrete steps, an… Show more

“…AlphaStep and NOMSim are agent-based models which simulate the transformation and degradation of NOM using a stochastic kinetic algorithm (Xiang et al 2004(Xiang et al , 2006Cabaniss et al 2005;Huang et al 2005). As discussed in Part I of this work, this modeling approach treats NOM as a set of interacting molecules derived from given precursors-tannins, lignin, terpenoids, proteins, etc.…”

“…(Figs. 1 and 2 of Cabaniss et al 2005). Each molecule is represented as an individual software structure, or agent, characterized by its elemental and functional group composition (Table 1 in Cabaniss et al 2005) and by a set of derived or calculated properties which include reaction probabilities (Tables 2 and 5 in Cabaniss et al 2005).…”
