Emergence In Surface of The California Desert/Part II

The semiarid climate dominates this desert biomes of California . It's ridges, canals and scarce vegetation shapes the landscape into a distinct aerial view. The wind, water,  and sun all collaborate in supplying the right conditions for the microorganism of that desert habitat. These conditions in turn create the optimal environment for the growth of nutrients in the soil. The microorganism nourish themselves with minerals, proteins, and amino acids. Who would have thought by just looking at this God forsaken land that in it lives a thriving community. An example of emergence at work. It's the subtleties of it all,  the microscopic size of it all, the indiscreet panorama of it all that interplays with one another in such a dynamic way so as to create a powerful force. Coincidentally the canals in the desert surface resembles the canals of the canaliculi in compact bone. It is an obvious observation to make, but an important similarity to denote. This similarity has the markings of emergence all over it. Emergence leaves its footprints like a thief leaves his fingerprints at a scene of crime. In the same manner, a crime scene investigator is hired to uncover the criminals fingerprints, science experts breakdown nature into it's component parts. Emergence, the way complex systems and patterns arise out of a multiplicity of relatively simple interactions, is the same force behind both canals, the one in compact bone, the other in the desert surface. This same force acts on people but in a very subtle way. It is not felt by people, kinda of indiscernible. The force of emergence in people is characteristic of a more van der waals type.
