[abridged] While observations of Local Group galaxies show a very simple, local star formation law in which the star formation rate per unit area in each patch of a galaxy scales linearly with the molecular gas surface density, recent observations of both Milky Way molecular clouds and high redshift galaxies apparently show a more complicated relationship, in which regions of equal surface density can form stars at quite different rates.
