The autocorrelation function for island areas on self-affine surfaces

Jean-François Molinari, Guillaume Anciaux, Srinivasa Babu Ramisetti

The spatial distribution of regions that lie above contours of constant height through a self-affine surface is studied as a function of the Hurst exponent H. If the surface represents a landscape, these regions correspond to islands. When the surface repr ...
