There is a rooster assassination attempt at the end
This model shifts the emphasis from ring formation as a failure (die-off due to resource limitation) to a successful, programmed adaptation (resource monopolization).
...autotoxicity.
- the "well" isnt about water retention but simply water ACCESS. rain means nothing if it runs off. = intrinsic ringing?
Makes me wonder:
- shrub grows to about 7 m, it traps dust, sediment, and more from wind, creating a coppice dune (nebkha)
- this coppice dune increases water infiltration (McAuliffe, et, al, 2016)
- this creates a WELL. A self made well for the creosote. Bare center maintenence by...
Creosote non ring shrub sizes VS creosote early-stage ring sizes quick study @scottzona.bsky.social
In that case you can say im down wit the clown
Happened already with "omnialert". Cops searched a bunch of kids because their magic AI system said a lays potato chip bag was a gun and now the humiliating video is on YouTube forever
Ah yes they did but it was for Biden
Tomatoes are amazing like this- not crazy to see like, fully fruited plant coming from a almost completely paved parking lot. Ive seen it!
...there is no need to disclose this
Well it was actually licensed or we wouldn't be seeing it (or soon wont).

I think this prevents the need to purchase the master copies of the music (more than licensing). They can still publish their own (non master) version and so they did- making me suspect this is actually a joke because...
Haters worldwide are awaiting your downfall! Make them wait
The size, health, and degree to which they fragment are, I believe, caused by environment (extrinsic) but I cannot stop thinking that the ring structure itself is intrinsic behavior. Thanks for your time 🙏
The size consistency at which the change from a shrub to a ring occurs and how they consistently progress thru the lifespan is a ring is whispering something to me but I dont know what (real- scale not perfect) and (artist rendition) of this remarkable progression
But I see the flaw you've pointed out- if root-to-shoot distance is the problem, the center should be filled
BUT im not convinced there is any die off. To me it appears the creosote reaches a maximum singular shrubs size and then naturally (always) rings out
So whereas soil infiltration limits the ability for a ring to grow and survive (McAuliffe, et al, 2016). Plant tissue "infiltration" perhaps limits the ability for a plant to become anything more than a ring. No die off needed
Hypothesis: In Larrea tridentata, ring formation represents an intrinsic hydraulic optimization. Growth proceeds in a circular pattern to maintain an efficient root-to-shoot distance, NOT as a result of central die-off.
