In summary, relevance fields of studies can be benefitted from point-source contaminant research advances.
Rodrik's (2010) diagnostic framework provides a useful tool to improve the design and relevance of field experiments.
Not surprisingly, due to its apparent real-world relevance, the field of BLOPs has attracted much research attention over several decades [4, 10, 35].
This would further minimize the extent of labor and time involvement in estimating parameters and this has a practical relevance to field engineers.
Of great relevance to field development and management is knowing the contribution of each gas source to gas transport history and to ultimate gas recovery.
Such data relevance (DR) field would incur in very small additional overhead in most cases, and adding control information into data packets is already a common approach in wireless sensor networks [11, 35].
Though their relevance to field soil conditions has to be considered with caution, such platforms are instrumental for feeding, then calibrating and validating, dynamic models of root architecture in response to resource scarcity and distribution (reviewed in Hill et al. [2013]).
At least some studies indicate that laboratory results may nevertheless have clear relevance for field conditions [ 54].
Although a number of tidal simulator studies exist in the literature, there are location, cost, and space limitations associated with current designs, as well as a paucity of information regarding relevance to field conditions (Table 1).
At dissolved CO2 concentrations of relevance to field conditions (15 180 μM; e.g. in Thailand, Setter et al. 1987; India, Ram et al. 1999), underwater PN was enhanced 4- to 4.9-fold by gas films on leaves of rice (Pedersen et al. 2009).
