Intermittent percolation and the scale-free distribution of vegetation clusters

Paula Villa Martín, Virginia Domínguez-García, Miguel A. Muñoz

Understanding the causes and effects of spatial vegetation patterns is a fundamental problem in ecology, especially because these can be used as early predictors of catastrophic sh…

Intervality and coherence in complex networks

Virginia Domínguez-García, Samuel Johnson, Miguel A. Muñoz

Food webs -- networks of predators and prey -- have long been known to exhibit "intervality": species can generally be ordered along a single axis in such a way that the prey of an…

Ranking species in mutualistic networks

Virginia Domínguez-García, Miguel A. Muñoz

Understanding the architectural subtleties of ecological networks, believed to confer them enhanced stability and robustness, is a subject of outmost relevance. Mutualistic interac…

Inherent directionality explains the lack of feedback loops in empirical networks

Virginia Domínguez-García, Simone Pigolotti, Miguel A. Muñoz

We explore the hypothesis that the relative abundance of feedback loops in many empirical complex networks is severely reduced owing to the presence of an inherent global direction…

Trophic coherence determines food-web stability

Samuel Johnson, Virginia Domínguez-García, Luca Donetti +1

Why are large, complex ecosystems stable? Both theory and simulations of current models predict the onset of instability with growing size and complexity, so for decades it has bee…

Factors determining nestedness in complex networks

Samuel Johnson, Virginia Dominguez-Garcia, Miguel A. Munoz

Understanding the causes and effects of network structural features is a key task in deciphering complex systems. In this context, the property of network nestedness has aroused a…
