Dynamics of North American Breeding Bird Populations

Keitt, Timothy H.; Stanley, H. Eugene - Santa Fe Institute - 1997

The dynamics of biological populations often appear quite complex, exhibiting considerable year-to-year variation in local abundances. One approach to dealing with ecological complexity is to reduce the system to one or a few species, for which meaningful equations can be written and even...

Self Organized Critical Traffic in Parallel Computer Networks

Valverde, Sergi; Solé, Ricard V. - Santa Fe Institute - 2001

In a recent paper, we analysed the dynamics of traffic flow in a simple, square lattice architecture. It was shown that a phase transition takes place between a free and a congested phase. The transition point was shown to exhibit optimal information transfer and wide fluctuations in time, with...

Allometric Scaling of Production and Life History Variation in Vascular Plants

Enquist, Brian J.; West, Geoffrey B.; Charnov, Eric L.; … - Santa Fe Institute - 1999

A prominent feature of comparative life histories in the well documented negative correlation between growth rate and life span [1,2]. Patterns of resource allocation during growth reflect life-history differences between species [1,2]. This is particularly striking in tropical forests, where...
