- Patterns and Power of Phenotypic Selection in Nature (2007, background): “This is perhaps not surprising, given that an organism’s body size affects nearly every aspect of its biology, from its biochemistry to its ecology (Bonner 2006).”
- Geospatial analysis requires a different way of thinking: the problem of spatial heterogeneity (2014, background): “arth’s surface (Anselin 1989, Goodchild 2004). This is indeed true, while for example referring to the diversity of landscapes and species (animals and plants) on the Earth’s surface (Wu and Li 2006, Bonner 2006). This diversity or heterogeneity indicates uneven geographic and statistical distributi”
