Time series of krill and salp population dynamics. Time series for the mean of 30 repetitions of the density of post-larvae krill (first row), mean length of post-larvae krill (second row), the density of eggs released by krill per year (third row), and max annual density of salps (fourth row) separated by chlorophyll-a scenario (columns). The left column depicts the simulations with a fixed maximum chlorophyll-a concentration per year of 0.54 mg per m3. In comparison, the right column shows the model results during lognormal maximum chlorophyll-a concentration (mean log = 3.83 mg per m3 and sd log = 0.58 mg m3). The possible maximum chlorophyll-a concentration in each year is shown as green coloring
