«We're finding out that this brain region — the subiculum — varies in every spatial scale on which the nervous system operates — from molecules to cells to circuits.

Within the integrated Earth system science paradigm, our major research thrusts include the physics and chemistry of aerosols, clouds and precipitation; integrating our understanding of climate, energy, and other human and natural systems through the development and application of models that span a wide range of spatial scales; and determining the impacts of and informing responses to climate and other global and regional environmental changes.

Specific geometric shapes and their variations, spatial arrangements, and experimentations with scale trace her explorations through color as a fluid, ineffable topic and experience — the proposed, implied, and often inconsistent logic within color systems, expectations of color relationships, and aesthetic decisions as value choices.

A comprehensive risk assessment would determine flood hazard for individual structures by modeling watershed and floodplain characteristics at fine spatial scales; it would describe the varying levels of protection offered by all elements of a flood protection system and mitigation measures; and it would account explicitly for uncertainties, including those related to current and future flood hazard, structure value and vulnerability, and the current and future performance of flood protection measures.

The challenges are significant, but the record of progress suggests that within the next decade the scientific community will develop fully coupled dynamical (prognostic) models of the full Earth system (e.g., the coupled physical climate, biogeochemical, human sub-systems) that can be employed on multi-decadal time - scales and at spatial scales relevant to strategic impact assessment.

The climate system includes a variety of physical processes, such as cloud processes, radiative processes and boundary - layer processes, which interact with each other on many temporal and spatial scales.

Arthur Smith argues that the spatial correlation of ENSO is evidence against chaos, because chaotic systems can not (in Arthur's eyes) produce structures which correlate across large scales.

Current computer models can faithfully simulate many of the important aspects of the global climate system, such as changes in global average temperature over many decades; the march of the seasons on large spatial scales; and how the climate responds to large - scale forcing, like a large volcanic eruption.

So if you want to understand the average behavior of that system you need to sample at a much larger spatial scale over larger time intervals than was previously appreciated.

The climate is an excellent example of a forced, dissipative system dominated by nonlinear processes and featuring non-trivial dynamics of a vast range of spatial and temporal scales.

It is characterized by multiple intersecting and uncertain future hazards to natural and human systems, that are expected to unfold over a very large range of spatial and temporal scales, and whose probabilities may be difficult, or in some cases impossible, to quantify precisely (because of intrinsic and / or irreducible uncertainties about the future).

Length scales are typically hundreds of kilometres, corresponding to the spatial scale of weather systems, known as the synoptic scale in meteorology.

Modes or patterns of climate variability - Natural variability of the climate system, in particular on seasonal and longer time scales, predominantly occurs with preferred spatial patterns and time scales, through the dynamical characteristics of the atmospheric circulation and through interactions with the land and ocean surfaces.

integrat [e] the performative capacity of biological structures into architectural design and at testing the resulting spatial and structural material - systems in full scale.
