摘要：

Geometric models often contain elements of complex geographic processes. The shape of the curve selected to model a specific process can be crucial in determining interpretations. To illustrate this relationship we use the graphical analysis of chaos theory as a geometric model and apply it to the complex process of semidesert-soil production. This application suggests strategies for choosing when human intervention to improve soil production might be appropriate.
