This work examines the dynamics of a discrete-time plankton interaction model, in which phytoplankton generate toxins and are vulnerable to external contamination. The model includes a Holling Type-II predation response and uses a piecewise constant argument approach to break it up into smaller pieces. This keeps the ecological realism of the continuous system while making it possible to study complex discrete-time behaviors. Our focus is on the formation of Neimark-Sacker bifurcation, a phenomena associated with the initiation of quasi-periodic oscillations in population densities. We show how toxin buildup and outside contamination can make plankton populations unstable, which could cause blooms to happen in an irregular way, using stability analysis and numerical simulations. The results show how useful discrete-time models are for capturing rapid changes in ecosystems, such damaging algal blooms. They also give ideas for managing ecosystems and reducing blooms.
