In resource description, the level of granularity refers to the extent to which descriptions are provided at higher or lower levels in the hierarchy of discrete bibliographic components: a serial title, an individual serial issue, an article in a serial issue; in the case of websites, the whole website or discrete sub-sites. 2, record 2, English, - granularity

The term "granularity" in English appears to be absent from the pesticidal literature. Instead, reference is made to whether or not certain products should be considered "granular", as in the following example: A "granular" inert is defined as a carrier or diluent that is limited to a size range of 4-mesh to 80-mesh (U.S. Standard Sieve Series) (VAPES 1973, p. 152) 3, record 5, English, - granularity
