About this document

Fog-Dependent Vegetation Patterns by Anthony Pauca is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document summarizes a study on vegetation pattern formation in a fog-dependent ecosystem in the Coastal Atacama Desert where fog is the principal water source. The study presents a mathematical model to simulate the formation of banded vegetation patterns driven by the advection of fog-water by wind. The model predicts transitions between uniform vegetation cover and bare ground states depending on parameters like water input and slope. It also predicts that vegetation pattern wavelength decreases no
