Movie S1.

See supplemental video file for six 3D rendered animations of simulated termite mounds undergoing morphogenesis. All mounds were initialized as a small sphere and allowed to grow until a steady state morphology was obtained. Parameter value are given before each animation in log10 scale. Each frame corresponds to one day of mound growth, such that the length of each animation in frames is equal to the construction time of the mound.
