Evaluating empirical scaling relations of pattern metrics with simulated landscapes
Landscape patterns demonstrate scale-dependent properties that have been parsimoniously described by empirical scaling functions. These functions, derived from multiple-scale analysis of real landscapes, are evaluated here for their generality and robustness via a series of simulated landscapes with known landscape patterns. A factorial design was used to generate these landscapes, varying the ...
متن کاملScaling relations in dynamical evolution of star clusters
We have carried out a series of small scale collisional N-body calculations of single-mass star clusters to investigate the dependence of the lifetime of star clusters on their initial parameters. Our models move through an external galaxy potential with a logarithmic density profile and they are limited by a cut-off radius. In order to find scaling relations between the lifetime of star cluste...
متن کاملScaling relations for watersheds.
We study the morphology of watersheds in two and three dimensional systems subjected to different degrees of spatial correlations. The response of these objects to small, local perturbations is also investigated with extensive numerical simulations. We find the fractal dimension of the watersheds to generally decrease with the Hurst exponent, which quantifies the degree of spatial correlations....
متن کاملDark Matter Scaling Relations
We investigate the structure of dark matter halos by means of the kinematics of a very large sample of spiral galaxies of all luminosities. The observed rotation curves show an universal profile which is the sum of an exponential thin disk term and a spherical halo term with a flat density core. We find that the Burkert profile proposed to describe the dark matter halo density distribution of d...
متن کاملScaling relations in food webs.
In the last three decades, researchers have tried to identify universal patterns in the structure of food webs. It was recently proposed that the exponent eta characterizing the efficiency of the transport of energy in large and small food webs might have a universal value (eta = 1.13). In this work we establish lower and upper bounds for this exponent in a general spanning tree with a fixed nu...
