Abstract

In this paper, we propose a nonlinear reaction-diffusion system describing the interaction between toxin-producing phytoplankton and fish population. We analyze the effect of cross-diffusion on the dynamics of the system. The mathematical study of the model leads us to have an idea on the existence of a solution, the existence of equilibria and the stability of the stationary equilibria. Finally, numerical simulations performed at two-dimensions allowed us to establish the formation of spatial patterns and a threshold of release of the toxin, above which we talk about the phytoplankton blooms.
