Summary: Stabilized higher-order finite element approximations of convection-diffusion-reactions models with nonlinear reaction mechanisms are studied. Streamline upwind Petrov-Galerkin (SUPG) stabilization together with anisotropic shock-capturing as an additional stabilization in crosswind-direction is used. The parameter design of the scheme is described precisely and error estimates are provided. Theoretical results are illustrated by numerical computations. The work extends former investigations for linear problems to more realistic nonlinear models.
