Directional variation in evolution: consequences for the fitness landscape metaphor
The concept of a fitness landscape, which describes the relation between genotype (or phenotype) and fitness as a surface on which the population climbs uphill towards local peaks, is a central conceptual tool in evolutionary biology. Inherent in this metaphor is the assumption that the distance between any two points can be defined in the same way as for Euclidean space. However, many of the p...
متن کاملEvolution Simulator
The purpose of this project is to develop a computer system that accurately simulates natural selection among species in a given environment. If the simulation is accurate towards real-world situations, then observing natural behavior will be significantly easier to manipulate than a natural environment. The Evolution Simulator will incorporate programming AGENTbased simulation techniques, and ...
متن کاملSELES: A Spatially Explicit Landscape Event Simulator
Landscape structure results from complex interactions between geomorphology, climate, disturbance and succession. SELES is a tool for building spatially explicit simulations to model the role of disturbance in creating and maintaining landscape structure. Models built with SELES are raster-based, semi-Markov, whole landscape models (sensu Baker 1989) which use probabilistic disturbance spread. ...
متن کاملThe Evolution of Landscape
Earth’s landscape is continually evolving as land uplifted by tectonic and volcanic processes is eroded by water, ice, and wind. On Earth, the dominant landforms have been produced by the action of rivers and glaciers transporting material from mountains to the sea. The amount and proportion of water and ice available for changing the landscape are both sensitive to climatic regime, so that a s...
متن کاملLandscape evolution models
Geomorphology is the study of Earth’s landforms and the processes that shape them. From its beginnings, geomorphology has embraced a historical approach to understanding landforms; the concept of evolving landforms is firmly ingrained in geomorphic thought. Modern process geomorphologists use the term landscape evolution to describe the interactions between form and process that are played out ...
