A topographic mechanism for arcing of dryland vegetation bands

Punit Gandhi, Lucien Werner, Sarah Iams +2

Banded patterns consisting of alternating bare soil and dense vegetation have been observed in water-limited ecosystems across the globe, often appearing along gently sloped terrai…

Signatures of human impact on self-organized vegetation in the Horn of Africa

Karna Gowda, Sarah Iams, Mary Silber

In many dryland environments, vegetation self-organizes into bands that can be clearly identified in remotely-sensed imagery. The status of individual bands can be tracked over tim…

Assessing the robustness of spatial pattern sequences in a dryland vegetation model

Karna Gowda, Yuxin Chen, Sarah Iams +1

A particular sequence of patterns, "," occurs with decreasing precipitation in previously reported numerical simulations of PDE d…

Early-Warning Signs for Pattern-Formation in Stochastic Partial Differential Equations

Karna Gowda, Christian Kuehn

There have been significant recent advances in our understanding of the potential use and limitations of early-warning signs for predicting drastic changes, so called critical tran…

Transitions between patterned states in vegetation models for semi-arid ecosystems

Karna Gowda, Hermann Riecke, Mary Silber

A feature common to many models of vegetation pattern formation in semi-arid ecosystems is a sequence of qualitatively different patterned states, "gaps -> labyrinth -> spots", tha…
