! Phytoplankton mortality terms differ by whether they are density-dependent (i.e., linear versus quadratic),
! temperature-dependent, and whether they vary depending on the condition (or stress) of the phytoplankton. The
! level of stress is defined based on the achieved growth rate relative to the maximum growth rate. By default,
! stress-dependent mortality begins to increase from 0 when this ratio falls below 0.25 (frac_mu_stress = 0.25).
! stress-dependent mortality begins to increase from 0 when this ratio falls below 0.4 (frac_mu_stress = 0.4).

! Phytoplankton aggregation is a density-dependent (quadratic) mortality term that is more effective for large
! phytoplankton, following Jackson (1990). Aggregation rates increase with stress (e.g., Waite et al, 1992).
