Figure 8.
Simulations of model (1) with different initial biomass distributions. 10 simulations were carried out for three target biofilm thoicknesses λ. Shown is the amount of biomass in the system: (a) siderophore producer N, λ = 100 μm, (b) non-siderophor producer R, λ = 100 μm, (c) siderophore producer N, λ = 150 μm, (f) non-siderophore producer R, λ = 150 μm, (e) siderophore producer N, λ = 200 μm, (f) non-siderophore producer R, λ = 200 μm. Shown are the results of 10 simulations each.
