«The great spatial heterogeneity of microplastics at large and mesoscales makes it difficult to extrapolate local monitoring data to larger areas,» Nerland explains. (sciencenordic.com)
Themes in his research program include forest productivity and carbon storage; rates, causes, and consequences of tree mortality; development and functional consequences of spatial heterogeneity in forest ecosystems; and fire - effects and succession in mixed - conifer forests. (montanaclimate.org)
Unlike GHG, aerosols have much greater spatial heterogeneity in their radiative forcing. (realclimate.org)
