Resumen:
In this work, we formulate a dynamic first principle-based eutrophication model for a reservoir andperform global sensitivity analysis to determine most influential parameters. Both first-order and totalsensitivity indices profiles have been calculated throughout a time horizon of one year on main differential state variables, which include cyanobacteria, diatoms and chlorophyta concentration, as well as main nutrient concentration. Numerical results have shown a marked seasonality in sensitivity indices and have allowed ranking of parameters, which in turn have been estimated with observed data from the study case, Paso de las Piedras reservoir (Bahía Blanca, Argentina).
