article_snippet.sent: Desert fairy circles (pictured) are considered one of nature's greatest mysteries because Desert fairy circles (pictured) is now known how they form. 
article_snippet.sent: Professor Sinclair and Haozhe Zhang used satellite images of fairy circles and a computer to draw lines halfway between each pair to give Professor Sinclair and Haozhe Zhang invisible boundaries that look similar to cell walls.
article_snippet.sent: ’ Mr Zhang, a PhD student at Iowa State University who was previously at OISTsaid that future mathematical models designed to explain how fairy rings are made should incorporate the results of this study.
article_snippet.sent: While a number of studies have suggested the fairy circles are created by industrious termites, research last May claimed a number of studies have suggested the fairy circles are created by industrious termites, research are the result of resource competition for water among plants.
article_snippet.sent: German researchers analysed the spatial distribution of the fairy circles and found that German researchers are ‘remarkably regular’ in German researchers distribution, which made German researchers question the termite theory.
article_snippet.sent: Last year, German researchers analysed the spatial distribution of the fairy circles (pictured in the Marienfluss Valley) and found that German researchers are 'remarkably regular' in German researchers distribution.
article_snippet.sent: The genesis of a fairy circle has not been observed.
article_snippet.sent: ‘A similar process of resource-competition may consequently also be the real cause for a self-organising formation of the mysterious fairy circle patterns,’ the study says.
highlights_snippet.sent: It is not known how fairy circles in the Namibian desert are made .
