Self Organized Soil

The paper is finally out! Please take a look!

This repository contains all the code used in the simulations and analysis in my masters thesis.

The thesis is written under Kim Sneppen and Kunihiko Kaneko at the Niels Bohr Institute, from August 2023 to June 2024. It was continued and refined in the first year of my PhD.

The Topic

The project initially aimed at explaining the fractal nature of soil, by generating a simple model that self-organizes into the desired structure.

It evolved into a study of a mutual feedback loop between organisms and physical structure: we make a simple model where organisms shape soil, and the spatial structure of the soil helps the organisms thrive.

Directory Structure

The top-level directory contains two folders of interest:

  • src, which contains all the source code used for the simulations
  • docs, which contains code for the visualizations (and perhaps documentation?) on the webpage
