Stochastic Cellular Automaton Model

Cellular Automaton (Voter Model) r Cellular automaton: Square array of cells where each cell takes one of the 6 values representing the landscape on a 1-square mile resolution Evolving single-parameter model: A cell dies out at random times and is replaced by a cell chosen randomly within a circular radius r (1 < r < 10) Constraint: The proportions of land types are kept equal to the proportions of the experimental data Boundary conditions : periodic and reflecting Initial conditions : random and ordered

Random Initial Conditions Ordered

Cluster Probability n A point is assumed to be part of a cluster if its 4 nearest neighbors are the same as it is. n CP (Cluster probability) is the % of total points that are part of a cluster.

Cluster Probabilities (1) Random initial conditions r = 1 r = 3 r = 10 experimental value

Cluster Probabilities (2) Ordered initial conditions r = 1 r = 3 r = 10 experimental value

Fluctuations in Cluster Probability r = 3 Number of generations Cluster probability

Power Spectrum (1) Power laws ( 1 /f  ) for both initial conditions; r = 1 and r = 3 Slope:  = 1.58 r = 3 Frequency Power SCALE INVARIANT Power law !

Power Spectrum (2) Power Frequency No power law ( 1 /f  ) for r = 10 r = 10 No power law

Fractal Dimension (1)  = separation between two points of the same category (e.g., prairie) C = Number of points of the same category that are closer than   Power law : C =  D (a fractal) where D is the fractal dimension: D = log C / log 

Fractal Dimension (2) Simulated landscapeObserved landscape

A Measure of Complexity for Spatial Patterns One measure of complexity is the size of the smallest computer program that can replicate the pattern. A GIF file is a maximally compressed image format. Therefore the size of the file is a lower limit on the size of the program. Observed landscape:6205 bytes Random model landscape: 8136 bytes Self-organized model landscape:6782 bytes ( r = 3)

Deterministic Coupled- flow Lattice Model

Lotka-Volterra Equations n R = rabbits, F = foxes n dR/dt = r 1 R (1 - R - a 1 F ) n dF/dt = r 2 F (1 - F - a 2 R ) Interspecies competition Intraspecies competition r and a can be + or -

Types of Interactions dR/dt = r 1 R (1 - R - a 1 F ) dF/dt = r 2 F (1 - F - a 2 R ) a1r1a1r1 a2r2a2r2 Competition Predator- Prey Prey- Predator Cooperation

Equilibrium Solutions n dR/dt = r 1 R (1 - R - a 1 F ) = 0 n dJ/dt = r 2 F (1 - F - a 2 R ) = 0 R = 0, F = 0 R = 0, F = 1 R = 1, F = 0 R = (1 - a 1 ) / (1 - a 1 a 2 ), F = (1 - a 2 ) / (1 - a 1 a 2 ) Equilibria: R F

Stability - Bifurcation r 1 (1 - a 1 ) < -r 2 (1 - a 2 ) F RR r 1 = 1 r 2 = -1 a 1 = 2 a 2 = 1.9 r 1 = 1 r 2 = -1 a 1 = 2 a 2 = 2.1
