# Introduction
The NPZ (Nutrients, Phytoplankton, Zooplankton) model is based on the model that is developed by Carrasco de la Cruz (2018)[^2956] and is also published by Jiang et al. (2020). The model consists of 9 state variables of which 4 in the water column (DIN, Phyto, Zoo, Det) and 5 in the bottom (Mus, Coc, Oys, MPB and Bot_Det). All state variables are expressed in terms of nitrogen (N). The state variables in the water column have the unit of mmol-N m<sup>\-3</sup> and the state variables in the bottom have a unit of mmol-N m<sup>\-2</sup>. The state variables in the water column can be transported between the compartments and the North Sea by tidal currents. Also they can be introduced into the Oosterschelde through the Krammersluizen. The state variables in the bottom are not exchanged between the compartments.
