A Fast-Slow Model of Banded Vegetation Pattern Formation in Drylands
Punit Gandhi, Sara Bonetti, Sarah Iams +2
From infiltration of water into the soil during rainstorms to seasonal plant growth and death, the ecohydrological processes that are thought to be relevant to the formation of ban…
Bridging discrete and continuous formalisms for biodiversity quantification
Xue Feng, Sara Bonetti, Amilcare Porporato
Several theoretical frameworks have been proposed to explain observed biodiversity patterns, ranging from the classical niche-based theories, mainly employing a continuous formalis…
From Turbulence to Landscapes: Universality of Logarithmic Mean Profiles in Bounded Complex Systems
Milad Hooshyar, Sara Bonetti, Arvind Singh +2
The logarithmic mean-velocity profile is a key experimental and theoretical result in wall-bounded turbulence. Similarly, here we show that the topographic surface emerging between…
Vegetation Pattern Formation in Drylands
Punit Gandhi, Sarah Iams, Sara Bonetti +1
This is a book chapter, written as a contribution to a new edition of "Dryland Ecohydrology", edited by Paolo D'Odorico, Amilcare Porporato, and Christiane Runyan, (to appear, Spri…
Channelization cascade
Sara Bonetti, Milad Hooshyar, Carlo Camporeale +1
The hierarchy of channel networks in landscapes displays features that are characteristic of non-equilibrium complex systems. Here we show that a sequence of increasingly complex r…
