Fig. 3 Schematic example of interaction across spatial, organizational, and temporal scales and levels. This schematic diagram can be used to illustrate the spatial and temporal dimensions of biogeophysical phenomena (the climate-related system represented as a solid line) and the interaction of two human domains: climate research (the long hashed line) and water management (hash-dotted lines). In this case, gaps exist in the human systems across levels within domains, e.g., international climate research does not link with national or subnational research or forecasting, and national water policy does not link with local water management) and across scales. This diagram is based on an original figure by Clark (1987) with recent additions by Lebel.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
