On a generalized Klausmeier model

Abstract

In this paper we study a generalized Klausmeier model replacing the integer derivative by a local fractional derivative. This derivative enables us to consider a wide range of systems with already well-known derivatives. We analyze the stability of this new model as well as the homotopic perturbation method. Finally, an inverse problem associated with a real data set is solved.
