Neimark-Sacker-Turing Instability and Pattern Formation in a Spatiotemporal Discrete Predator-Prey System with Allee Effect

Discrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2018
A spatiotemporal discrete predator-prey system with Allee effect is investigated to learn its Neimark-Sacker-Turing instability and pattern formation.

Spatiotemporal Tipping Induced by Turing Instability and Hopf Bifurcation in a Population Ecosystem Model with the Fear Factor

Complexity, 2023
Population ecosystems can display the tipping points at which extinctions of species happens. To predict the appearance of tipping points and to understand their evolution mechanism are of uttermost importance for ecological balance.

A Thermodynamic Framework for Turing‐Type Instabilities in Porous Media: Part I Theory

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Pattern formation in geological materials is commonly described using analogies to Turing‐type reaction–diffusion systems, yet a unifying thermodynamic explanation remains elusive. Here we develop a multiscale, thermodynamically consistent framework for pattern‐forming instabilities in porous media undergoing coupled thermo–hydro–mechanical ...

Turing Bifurcation and Pattern Formation of Stochastic Reaction-Diffusion System [PDF]

Advances in Mathematical Physics, 2017
Noise is ubiquitous in a system and can induce some spontaneous pattern formations on a spatially homogeneous domain. In comparison to the Reaction-Diffusion System (RDS), Stochastic Reaction-Diffusion System (SRDS) is more complex and it is very difficult to deal with the noise function.

A Thermodynamic Framework for Turing‐Type Instabilities in Porous Media: Part II Applications

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Compaction bands, desiccation cracks, and melt segregation structures are geological patterns relying on the same fundamental manifestations of a universal Turing‐type instability mechanism, as predicted by the thermodynamically consistent reaction–cross‐diffusion framework developed in Part I (Regenauer‐Lieb et al., 2025, https://doi.org/10 ...

Well‐Posedness and Pattern Formation in a Two‐Species Reaction–Diffusion System with Nonlocal Perception

Studies in Applied Mathematics, Volume 156, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Nonlocal perceptual cues, such as visual, auditory, and olfactory signals, profoundly influence animal movement and the emergence of ecological patterns. To capture these effects, we introduce a two‐species reaction–diffusion system with mutual nonlocal perception on a two‐dimensional periodic domain.

A Nonlinear Cross-Diffusion Model for Disease Spread: Turing Instability and Pattern Formation

Mathematics
In this article, we propose a novel nonlinear cross-diffusion framework to model the distribution of susceptible and infected individuals within their habitat using a reduced SIR model that incorporates saturated incidence and treatment rates.

Using Shannon Entropy and Contagion Index to Interpret Pattern Self-Organization in a Dynamic Vegetation-Sand Model

IEEE Access, 2020
Vegetation pattern is one of the most important self-organized patterns in ecological systems. The formation mechanism of vegetation patterns has been attributed to dynamic bifurcations, while from the external perspective, the regularity of patterns ...

Vegetation patterns pinpoint the least resilient dryland sites

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 1, Page 172-187, January 2026.
Abstract Resource‐limited ecosystems, such as drylands, can exhibit self‐organized spatial patterns. Theory suggests that changes in these patterns can inform about the ecosystem degradation level. While the current theory is expected to work well when following a given site in time, we still lack ways of comparing different field sites using static ...

Spatial Complexity of a Predator-Prey Model with Holling-Type Response

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
We focus on a spatially extended Holling-type IV predator-prey model that contains some important factors, such as noise (random fluctuations), external periodic forcing, and diffusion processes.
