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.
