Predicting across Scales: Theory Development and Testing [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Landscape ecologists deal with processes that occur at a variety of temporal and spatial scales. The ability to make predictions at more than one level of resolution requires identification of the processes of interest and parameters that affect this process at different scales, the development of rules to translate information across scales, and the ability to test these predictions at the relevant spatial and temporal scales. This paper synthesizes discussions from a workshop on 'Predicting Across Scales: Theory Development and Testing' that was held to discuss current research on scaling and to identify key research issues.
