Forecasting algae and shellfish carbon sink capability on fractional order accumulation grey model

1.   Introduction

Marine biology carbon sink is critical pathway to earned carbon neutrality object. Marine absorbing 1/3 anthropogenic CO₂ emitted over the industrial period ^[1]. Marine CO₂ carbon sinks volume gradually increased from 2008–2019 ^[2]. Greenhouse effect increased surface-ocean CO₂ partial pressure. Marine carbon sink function influenced 10–40% carbon sinks capability variation on 1900–2010 ^[3]. Northern Indian Ocean evidence shown biological pump transforms CO₂ partial to inorganic carbon storage in deep ocean, reduced greenhouse effect efficiently ^[4]. Marine carbon sink capability is susceptible and alterable. Mesoscale ocean fronts upwelling increased carbon particle vertical transport and sequestration capability ^[5]. Anthropogenic CO₂ emitted to aggravate seawater acidulated. Seawater acidulated dissolution marine organism carbonates shell and also reduced marine organism carbonate storage carbon capability. Atmosphere-marine carbon cycles efficiently is critical factor of global ecological system sustainable operated ^[6]. Marine carbon sinks also will influence global political. Global marine carbon sinks are future international climate negotiations vital topic ^[7]. Marine carbon sinks process faced multiple challenges. Marine carbon sinks poor data limit relevant research. The Southern Ocean data-poor problem regions restrict air-ocean CO₂ fluxes research ^[8]. As same time, marine carbon sinks research ought to attention region characteristic. Regional-scale studies is significantly in Continental shelf air-sea CO₂ fluxes capability problem ^[9]. Literature review evidence has confirmed marine carbon sinks function. However marine carbon sinks capability influence by numerous external factors. Therefore, regional marine biological carbon sinks capability review is vital to alter warming trend.

Carbon sinks fishery is a well-qualified ecological and economic value biological carbon sinks system. Algae and shellfish are important fishery carbon sinks resources. Phototrophic dinoflagellates, cryptomonads, diatoms, heterotrophic bacteria and heterotrophic dinoflagellates algae can efficiently absorb and storage carbon from atmosphere ^[10]. Shellfish absorb carbon and other nutrient with shell and biological tissue from marine ecosystem to reduce seawater carbon concentration. Seawater carbon negative pressure formed new carbon sink power. Shellfish rope farming model carbon sinks capability is considerably over bottom seeding breeding model ^[11]. Norway proof showed cod and algae fishery source management optimize bring ecological and economic win-win result ^[12]. Algae and shellfish polyculture method carbon sediment rate is obviously higher than other regions in Sanggou bay ^[13]. In marine ecosystem, small copepod ingests storage enormous carbon and transport to metazoan ^[14]. Mangroves and seagrass are important tool to combating greenhouse effect, reasonable accurately assess carbon sequestration rate has benefit to incent ecosystem sustainable develop ^[15]. Marine ecosystem pollution will lead biology carbon sinks performance decreasing. In estuary habitat, marine pollutant accumulated in black rockfish from food chain. Yaquina Bay estuary habitat environment change will have negative influence on ocean organism nursery function ^[16]. Coral ingests micro plastics cause corals feeding impairment, microbiome gene expression error and appearance construction changed ^[17]. Shellfish carbon sinks capability has seasonal variation characteristics ^[18]. Ecosystem relies on specific environment condition. Environmental change sensitivity heterogeneity caused marine organism carbon sinks capability changed on different regional ^[19]. Therefore, algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability study not only helpful for earned carbon neutrality object, but also have benefit of solving marine environment comprehensive management problem. Algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability is alterable. Algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability were more sensitive to environment. Hence algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability forecast is a difficulty problem.

Algae and shellfish statistical data are limited. Algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability influence mechanism is not entirely identified. Hence Algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability forecast is a grey problem. Grey problem used in poor information environment and not entirely known problem typically. Deng definition grey problem concept means half known and half unknown problem ^[20]. Lei et al. built a training learned prediction grey model according to neural ordinary differential equations ^[21]. Kang et al. change tradition accumulation and derivative orders from constants to functions. Variable order fractional model can accurately predict complex system characteristic ^[22]. In complex network perspective, Xie et al. proposed generalized conformable fractional grey model and describe grey model physical meaning ^[23]. Jiang et al. improve a nonlinear grey Bernoulli model and use whale optimization algorithm calculate grey Bernoulli model parameters ^[24]. Grey model has widely used in environment source development and protection. Yu considers photovoltaic engineering has high flexibility time-delayed power effect characteristic. Grey model applies to photovoltaic have accurately prediction result ^[25]. Xu et al. proposed conformable fractional accumulation grey model to analyze energy consumption and carbon dioxide emission relationship ^[26]. Grey model also used in assessing PM2.5 seasonal fluctuation and marine fleets CO₂ emissions ^[27,28]. Tu & Chen forecast pubic attention to air pollution according to designing a new unequal adjacent grey model ^[29]. Ding et al. ^[30,31,32] presented a series of grey models to analyzing nuclear energy consumption, photovoltaic power generation and new energy vehicles sale problem. The forecast accuracy results confirmed the new grey model has the highest forecasting precision, small results empirical volatility, and outcome generalizability characteristics. Wang et al. ^[33] presented a multivariate forecasting model to analyzed energy consumption influenced factor, the result showed new grey model had better forecast precision. Zeng et al. ^[34,35] applied improved grey system model to predicted China coalbed methane production, and realized shale China gas production scientific prediction based on the new information priority principle combined with grey buffer operator technology.

Previous studies have provided algae and shellfish carbon sinks function is vital to control greenhouse effect. However, less researcher applies grey model to forecast fundamental fishery product like algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability alteration trend. Algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability influence factors are incomplete full known. Algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability correlation research data also in poor information situation. Therefore, the study applies FGM to analyze algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability. In the research, the major innovation as follow: 1) Algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability analyzes and forecast. Algae and shellfish marine carbon sinks are artificial enhance carbon sinks method. Algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability analyze will appraise algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability and develop trend. 2) Research result can provide policy advice for future marine carbon sinks fishery industry to enhance marine carbon sinks fishery policy scientific.

This study is organized as follows: Section 2 analyzes algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability mechanism. Section 3 provides data detail and grey model method choice. Section 4 analyzes study result according to geographic position. Section 5 drew conclusion and implication from study result.

2.   Algae and shellfish carbon sinks mechanism

Algae and shellfish are important marine economic merchandise. Previous research has testified algae and shellfish can sinks enormous carbon from atmosphere. Algae and shellfish merchandise are nutrient rich, is very important seafood of China. As Chinese traditional marine product, algae and shellfish have high market recognition degree. Algae and shellfish being farmed have a protracted history. Seawater breeding algal and shellfish technology are mature. Algae and shellfish breed may also achieve ecology benefit. Algae and shellfish breed and catch can remove marine ecology interior carbon source and create a sustainable marine carbon sinks system. Coastal area algae and shellfish breeding can achieve economic and ecological win-win result.

2.1.   Algae carbon sinks mechanism

Marine carbon sinks fishery is breed marine organisms carbon sinks function to extend marine carbon sinks capability. Marine carbon sinks fishery is considerably totally different to traditional fishery. Marine carbon sinks fishery aims to increasing marine carbon sinks capability. Algae is primary producer in marine ecosystem. Influence by photosynthesis, algae use inorganic carbon and nutrients in seawater to build biological tissues. Algae absorbs carbon from seawater can reduce surface-ocean CO₂ partial pressure promote atmosphere carbon dioxide dissolved in marine. Additionally, algae breeding forestalls seawater acidification.

2.2.   Shellfish carbon sinks mechanism

Shellfish also play an important role in marine carbon sinks function. shellfish shells use carbon element to form calcium carbonate. Shellfish also requires carbon to create soft tissue ^[36]. Shellfish and algae unite breed will efficiency improve fishery economy and environment performance. Algae provides survival necessary bait to shellfish. Shellfish excretory product provides abundant nutrients for algae upgrowth. Algae and shellfish comprehensive carbon sink function significant. Algae carbon content is 20–35% of algae net weight. Shellfish soft tissue carbon content is 26–42% soft tissue netted weight. Shellfish shell carbon content is 11–13% of shell net weight ^[37]. Shellfish tissue forms process need to converge carbon in marine element. Shellfish soft tissue and shell storage huge carbon element from marine. Therefore, shellfish breed and catch are vital pathway to increase marine carbon sink capability.

2.3.   Marine carbon sinks capability influence mechanism

Marine carbon sinks fishery is increasing marine ecosystems carbon sinks capability vital anthropogenic. Marine organisms will storage carbon in internal tissue. Marine environment change has knock-on effect on Marine organism ^[38]. Algae and shellfish have crucial role in marine carbon sinks system. Photosynthesis dissolved CO₂ to inorganic in seawater. Atmosphere CO₂ transforms CO₃ in seawater. Photosynthesis provides necessary energy for algae grow. Algae photosynthesis transforms H₂O and CO₂ into the carbohydrates and energy. Shellfish is feed by algae, plankton, and small copepod. Shellfish predation processes to shift other organism carbon in shellfish tissue internal. Algae and shellfish death and deposition cause organism tissue interior carbon form changed. Algae and shellfish death tissue carbon part transformed into particulate organic carbon form and permanently trapped in ocean floor. The other carbon transformed into dissolved organic form of storage carbon. Marine microbial carbon pumps transform dissolved organic carbon into refractory dissolved organic carbon form and transferred to deep-sea storage. Marine environment changes influence biological pumps transform and storage carbon efficient. Marine environment reason like temperature and climate affect algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability. Marine pollution and anthropogenic improper intervention inhibit ocean carbon sinks capability. Algae and shellfish carbon sinks mechanism is shown in Figure 1.

3.2.   Data source

Algae and shellfish marine catch amount and breed amount reflect regional marine carbon sinks capability. Organism weight and carbon sinks coefficient can estimate algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability. Marine algae and shellfish catch and breed amount can reflect coastal regional algae and shellfish resource carbon sinks capability sufficiently. According review previous research ^[39], algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability can estimate according to organisms' weight and carbon sink ratio. The study chose organism weight to analyze and forecast algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability. Algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability calculate method as shown:

1) Total carbon sinks capability

${C}_{t}$ mean algae and shellfish total carbon sinks capability in 9 coastal provinces; ${C}_{c}$ means algae carbon sinks capability; ${C}_{s}$ means shellfish carbon sinks capability.

2) Algae carbon sinks capability

${C}_{\text{a, c}}$ means algae caught amount; ${C}_{\text{a, b}}$ means algae breed amount; $\omega a$ means algae dry weight/total weight coefficient, algae weight/total weight coefficient is 20%; $\zeta a$ means algae carbon sinks coefficient. Algae carbon sinks coefficient is 0.27.

3) Shellfish carbon sinks capability

According calculation China 9 coastal provinces algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability statistical data in Table 1.

3.3.   Fractional order accumulation grey model

Wu et al. ^[40] present fractional order accumulation to better reflect new information priority theory. Compared with traditional grey model, fractional order accumulation grey model introduced fractional order to prevent traditional small sample grey model forecasts outcome error. FGM (1,1) deals method is:

Step1: Assume non-negative sequence ${X}^{\left(0\right)} = \left\{{x}^{\left(0\right)}\left(1\right), {x}^{\left(0\right)}\left(2\right), \cdots, {x}^{\left(0\right)}\left(n\right)\right\}$, For $\zeta \in \left(\mathrm{0, 3}\right.],$ (According to particle swarm optimization test optimum range), $\zeta -$ order accumulation generating operator ($\zeta$-FGM) is defined as follows:

Where ${C}_{\zeta -1}^{0} = 1;{C}_{k}^{k+1} = 0;{C}_{k-i+\zeta -1}^{k-i} = \frac{\left(k-i+\zeta -1\right)\left(k-i+\zeta -2\right)\dots (\zeta +1)\zeta }{\left(k-i\right)!}$.

When $\zeta$ = 1, ${C}_{k-i+\zeta -1}^{k-i} = {C}_{k-i}^{k-i} = 1$ $\zeta$-FGM is defined as ${x}^{\left(1\right)}\left(k\right) = \sum _{i = 1}^{k}{x}^{\left(0\right)}\left(i\right)$ equal to traditional 1-AGO grey model in GM (1,1).

Step 2: FGM (1,1) model establish as:

In FGM (1,1) model a, b are parameters and $u$ is the control parameter. Solution FGM (1, 1) parameters with least-squares

where

Step 3: FGM (1,1) approximate function is:

Step 4: FGM (1,1) inverse accumulated generating operator in:

Thus, the fitting values are ${\widehat{x}}^{\left(0\right)}\left(\zeta \right) = {\widehat{x}}^{\left(1\right)}\left(\zeta \right)-{\widehat{x}}^{\left(1\right)}\left(\zeta -1\right)$.

Grey model means absolute percentage error (MAPE) can use to reflect actual value and predicted value error. Low degree MAPE values to reflect perfect forecast precision. MAPE calculates formula is:

For better understanding FGM (1,1) solution principle, FGM (1,1) analyze and forecasting process as shown in Figure 3.

FGM (1,1) model forecasting algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability need to evaluate model availability firstly. Apply FGM (1,1), GM (1,1) and DGM (1,1) model evaluate China 9 coastal provinces total algae and shellfish carbon sinks. The forecast result as shown in Figure 4.

FGM (1,1) new information priority target realized according to fractional accumulation. Particle swarm optimization applied to optimize fractional-order (r = 0.0633). Algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability apply FGM ^(0.0633) (1,1) forecast MAPE is 0.51%. Forecast result superior than GM (1,1) (MAPE is 2.7%) and DGM (1,1) (MAPE is 1.7%). Hence, FGM (1,1) is more suitable to forecast algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability. Therefore, FGM (1,1) applied to empirical study algae and shellfish carbon sinks capability.
