Radar echoes from bird flocks contain modulation signals, which we find are produced by the flapping gaits of birds in the flock, resulting in a group of spectral peaks with similar amplitudes spaced at a specific interval. We call this the…
Dryland ecosystems commonly exhibit periodic bands of vegetation, thought to form due to competition between individual plants for heterogeneously distributed water. In this paper, we develop a Fourier method for locally identifying the…
