Formation of regular spatial patterns in ratio-dependent predator-prey model driven by spatial colored-noise

Abstract

Results are reported concerning the formation of spatial patterns in the two-species ratio-dependent predator-prey model driven by spatial colored-noise. The results show that there is a critical value with respect to the intensity of spatial noise for this system when the parameters are in the Turing space, above which the regular spatial patterns appear in two dimensions, but under which there are not regular spatial patterns produced. In particular, we investigate in two-dimensional space the formation of regular spatial patterns with the spatial noise added in the side and the center of the simulation domain, respectively.
