Modelling dryland vegetation patterns

Abstract
Vegetation patterns are a ubiquitous feature of semi-arid regions and are a prime example of a self-organisation principle in ecology. In this talk, I present a broad overview of how I have used mathematical modelling and analysis to develop new insights into vegetation pattern dynamics, for example on how mathematical stability properties relate to ecosystem degradation in changing environments, and a possible resolution for contradicting field data on the long-term migration dynamics of vegetation patterns.
