Journal ArticleDOI
Diversity of Vegetation Patterns and Desertification
TL;DR: A new model for vegetation patterns is introduced that predicts transitions from bare soil at low precipitation to homogeneous vegetation at high precipitation, through intermediate states of spot, stripe, and hole patterns and predicts wide precipitation ranges where different stable states coexist.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combined effects of light intensity, light-path and culture density on output rate of Spirulina platensis (Cyanobacteria)
TL;DR: For each irradiance there is an optimal culture density, defined as the concentration that yields the highest output rate of cell mass under the prevailing conditions, which is the highest reported for a culture of photoautotrophic microorganisms exposed to direct beam radiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vegetation patterns along a rainfall gradient
TL;DR: In this article, a model for vegetation patterns in water limited systems is presented, which involves two variables, the vegetation biomass density and the soil water density, and takes into account positive feedback relations between the two.
Journal ArticleDOI
Efficient use of strong light for high photosynthetic productivity: interrelationships between the optical path, the optimal population density and cell-growth inhibition.
TL;DR: The interrelationships between the optical path in flat plate reactors and photosynthetic productivity were elucidated and the necessity to address growth inhibition (GI) was concerns, which becomes increasingly manifested as cell concentration rises above a certain, species-specific, threshold.
Journal ArticleDOI
Allelic richness following population founding events--a stochastic modeling framework incorporating gene flow and genetic drift.
TL;DR: A stochastic model for the allelic richness of a newly founded population experiencing genetic drift and gene flow is presented and it is indicated that the “One Migrant per Generation” rule, a commonly used conservation guideline related to heterozygosity, may be inadequate for addressing preservation of diversity at the allele level.
