compares current definitions and ideas concerning scale within a
coherent framework, and examines two key scaling approaches:
similarity-based scaling, which is rooted in the idea of similitude
or self-similarity; and dynamic model-based scaling, which
emphasizes processes and mechanisms. With case studies focusing on
issues ranging from population to ecosystem processes; from
