Dividing active and passive particles in nonuniform nutrient environments
T Welker, H Stark - New Journal of Physics, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
To explore the coupling between a growing population of microorganisms such as E. coli
and a nonuniform nutrient distribution, we formulate a minimalistic model. It consists of active …

Microbial mutualism at a distance: The role of geometry in diffusive exchanges
The exchange of diffusive metabolites is known to control the spatial patterns formed by
microbial populations, as revealed by recent studies in the laboratory. However, the matrices …

Reaction-centric modeling of microbial ecosystems
The growth of microbial populations catalyzing biochemical reactions leads to positive
feedback loops and self-amplifying process dynamics at ecosystem scales. Hence, the state …

Oscillations in soil bacterial redox reactions
AC Fowler, HF Winstanley, MJ McGuinness… - Journal of Theoretical …, 2014 - Elsevier
Spatial oscillations in soil contaminant concentration profiles are sometimes observed, but
rarely commented on, or are attributed to noisy data. In this paper we consider a possible …
