I was studying soil nutrient spatial heterogeneity by calculating
coefficient of variation (CV) over different years, but I have hard time to
find out a statistical method to test for significance. Any suggestions or

I am very puzzled by Paul Cherubini's suggestion that increases in

Actually, most of the $100 million of the HSBC climate change money

restoration,

Another note: Dr. Bryson can't be speaking on this issue from personal
