Power-law behavior reveals phase transitions in landscape controls of fire regimes [PDF]
, 2011 In low-severity fire regimes of the American West and elsewhere, landscape memory of fire events is registered in fire-scarred trees, with temporal record lengths often exceeding 200 years^1-5^.

Self‐Affine Scaling of Earth's Islands
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.Abstract Earth's relief is approximately self‐affine, meaning a zoom‐in on a small region looks statistically similar to a large region upon rescaling. Fractional Brownian surfaces give an idealized self‐affine model of Earth's relief with one parameter, the Hurst exponent H $H$, characterizing the roughness of the surface.

Modeling of zonal anisotropic variograms
Lietuvos Matematikos Rinkinys, 2005 Most standard methods of geostatistical analysis are built upon the basic assumption of isotropy. However, spatial data in most cases are not isotropic. In practice typically we find data with zonal anisotropy.

Geostatistical interpretation of paleoceanographic data over large ocean basins - Reality and fiction [PDF]
, 1998 A promising approach to reconstruct oceanographic scenarios of past time slices is to drive numerical ocean circulation models with sea surface temperatures, salinities, and ice distributions derived from sediment core data.

Spatial variation of total column ozone on a global scale
, 2007 The spatial dependence of total column ozone varies strongly with latitude, so that homogeneous models (invariant to all rotations) are clearly unsuitable.
