摘要

Self-organized landscape patterning can arise in response to multipleprocesses. Discriminating among alternative patterning mechanisms,particularly where experimental manipulations are untenable, requiresprocess-based models. Previous modeling studies have attributed patterningin the Everglades (Florida, USA) to sediment redistribution and anisotropicsoil hydraulic properties. In this work, we tested an alternate theory, theself-organizing-canal (SOC) hypothesis, by developing a cellular automatamodel that simulates pattern evolution via local positive feedbacks (i.e.,facilitation) coupled with a global negative feedback based on hydrology.The model is forced by global hydroperiod that drives stochastic transitionsbetween two patch types: ridge (higher elevation) and slough (lowerelevation). We evaluated model performance using multiple criteria based onsix statistical and geostatistical properties observed in reference portionsof the Everglades landscape: patch density, patch anisotropy, semivariogramranges, power-law scaling of ridge areas, perimeter area fractal dimension,and characteristic pattern wavelength. Model results showed strongstatistical agreement with reference landscapes, but only whenanisotropically acting local facilitation was coupled with hydrologic globalfeedback, for which several plausible mechanisms exist. Critically, themodel correctly generated fractal landscapes that had no characteristicpattern wavelength, supporting the invocation of global rather thanscale-specific negative feedbacks.
