Self-organization and pattern formation are ubiquitous processes in nature. We study the properties of migrating banded vegetation patterns in arid landscapes, usually presenting dislocation topological defects. Vegetation patterns with dislocations are investigated in three different ecosystems. We show through remote sensing data analysis and theoretical modeling that the number of dislocations
