Changes in diatom patch-size distribution and degradation in a spatially self-organized intertidal mudflat ecosystem.
Self-organized spatial patterns have been proposed as possible indicators for regime shifts in ecosystems. Until now, this hypothesis has only been tested in drylands. Here, we focus on intertidal mudflats where regular spatial patterns develop in early spring from the interaction between diatom growth and sedimentation but disappear when benthic herbivore abundance increases in early summer, a...
متن کاملSpatial self-organized patterning in seagrasses along a depth gradient of an intertidal ecosystem.
The spatial structure of seagrass landscapes is typically ascribed to the direct influence of physical factors such as hydrodynamics, light, and sediment transport. We studied regularly interspaced banded patterns, formed by elongated patches of seagrass, in a small-scale intertidal ecosystem. We investigated (1) whether the observed spatial patterns may arise from feedback interactions between...

تمایل به ارزیابی جایگزین و تعویض آن با آزمون سنتی مداد و کاغذ در سالهای اخیر افزایش یافته است. اکثر زبان آموزان در کلاس های زبان از نمره نهایی که استاد تعیین میکند ناراضی اند. این تحقیق جهت بررسی ارزیابی در کلاس های زبان انگلیسی به هدف رضایتمندی زبان آموزان از نمره هایشان انجام گرفته است که در آن نمرات ارائه شده توسط سه گروه ارزیاب (ارزیابی خود دانشجو، همسالان واستاد) در مهارت های تولید (تکل...
15 صفحه اولSelf-organized dynamics in spatially structured populations.
Self-organization and pattern formation represent the emergence of order in temporal and spatial processes. Self-organization in population ecology is gaining attention due to the recent advances concerning temporal fluctuations in the population size of dispersal-linked subunits. We shall report that spatially structured models of population renewal promote the emergence of a complex power law...
متن کاملSelf-organized Complexity in Computer Program Ecosystem
This paper describes self-organized complexity of an ecosystem consisting of computer programs that exhibit life-like behavior. As an artificial life approach to simulating the life-like behavior on a computer, attention should be given to the emergent dynamics by which a new action is brought forth. In considering how to implement such a notion onto a computer, it could be interpreted as the g...
