Behavioral self-organization underlies the resilience of a coastal ecosystem.
Self-organized spatial patterns occur in many terrestrial, aquatic, and marine ecosystems. Theoretical models and observational studies suggest self-organization, the formation of patterns due to ecological interactions, is critical for enhanced ecosystem resilience. However, experimental tests of this cross-ecosystem theory are lacking. In this study, we experimentally test the hypothesis that...
متن کاملSelf-organized pattern formation and noise-induced control from particle computation
We propose a new non-equilibrium model for spatial pattern formation on the basis of local information transfer. Unlike standard models of pattern formation it is not based on the Turing instability. Information is transmitted through the system via particle-like excitations whose collective dynamics result in pattern formation and control. Here, a simple problem of domain formation is addresse...
متن کاملThe missing modes of self-organization in cathode boundary layer discharge in xenon
Self-organized pattern formation has been previously observed in cathode boundary layer discharges (CBLDs) in high-purity xenon gas at pressures ranging from about 60 Torr to atmospheric pressure. However, certain modes predicted by the COMSOL multiphysics simulation were never observed. In this paper, using the same reactor design, we managed to fine tune the discharge current into regions tha...
متن کاملMathematical Models of Vegetation Pattern Formation in Ecohydrology
[1] Highly organized vegetation patterns can be found in a number of landscapes around the world. In recent years, several authors have investigated the processes underlying vegetation pattern formation. Patterns that are induced neither by heterogeneity in soil properties nor by the local topography are generally explained as the result of spatial self-organization resulting from ‘‘symmetry-br...
متن کاملMorphology-Induced Collective Behaviors: Dynamic Pattern Formation in Water-Floating Elements
Complex systems involving many interacting elements often organize into patterns. Two types of pattern formation can be distinguished, static and dynamic. Static pattern formation means that the resulting structure constitutes a thermodynamic equilibrium whose pattern formation can be understood in terms of the minimization of free energy, while dynamic pattern formation indicates that the syst...
