Temporal and spatial variability of snow accumulation in central Greenland [PDF]
Snow accumulation records from central Greenland are explored to improve the understanding of the accumulation signal in Greenland ice core records. Results from a “forest” of 100 bamboo poles and automated accumulation monitors in the vicinity of Summit

Local forest structure variability increases resilience to wildfire in dry western U.S. coniferous forests. [PDF]
A 'resilient' forest endures disturbance and is likely to persist. Resilience to wildfire may arise from feedback between fire behaviour and forest structure in dry forest systems.

The Spatial Variability of Turbulence above a Forest [PDF]
The spatial variability of turbulence above a forest has been examined. Two measurement towers were erected 800 m apart within a heterogeneous mixed forest located in the north east of the Netherlands. The measurements of u*/u were analysed and subsequently used to test a surface layer model.

Visuo-spatial cognition in Williams syndrome: Reviewing and accounting for the strengths and weaknesses in performance [PDF]
Individuals with Williams syndrome typically show relatively poor visuo-spatial abilities in comparison to stronger verbal skills. However, individuals' level of performance is not consistent across all visuo-spatial tasks.

Spatial variability in the hyporheic zone refugium of temporary streams [PDF]
A key ecological role hypothesized for the hyporheic zone is as a refugium that promotes survival of benthic invertebrates during adverse conditions in the surface stream.

Spatial variability of snow chemistry in western Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica [PDF]
During the austral summer of 1993-94 a number of 1-2 m deep snow pits were sampled in connection with firn-coring in western Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. The traverse went from 800 to about 3000 m a.s.l. upon the high-altitude plateau.

The spatial structure of correlated neuronal variability [PDF]
Shared neural variability is ubiquitous in cortical populations. While this variability is presumed to arise from overlapping synaptic input, its precise relationship to local circuit architecture remains unclear. We combine computational models and in vivo recordings to study the relationship between the spatial structure of connectivity and ...

Controls on the temporal and spatial variability of soil moisture in a mountainous landscape: the signature of snow and complex terrain [PDF]
The controls on the spatial distribution of soil moisture include static and dynamic variables. The superposition of static and dynamic controls can lead to different soil moisture patterns for a given catchment during wetting, draining, and drying ...

Shoulder pain and cycle to cycle kinematic spatial variability during recovery phase in manual wheelchair users: a pilot investigation. [PDF]
Wheelchair propulsion plays a significant role in the development of shoulder pain in manual wheelchair users (MWU). However wheelchair propulsion metrics related to shoulder pain are not clearly understood.
