Abstract
Context. The spatial electron temperature fluctuations in ionized nebulae that were initially proposed to explain the discrepancies among temperatures obtained from different sensors have been pointed to as the cause of huge inconsistencies among abundances of heavy elements calculated from recombination and forbidden emission lines. Recently, there have been some attempts of direct detection and quantification of spatial temperature fluctuations with point-to-point temperature measurements across the nebula.
