Problems for particular systems or seemingly large differences between dispersion-corrected DFAs can often be attributed to an inaccurate description of short-range exchange-correlation effects, which are more difficult to describe than the long-range regime, dominated by 1/R -6 interactions. Dispersion effects can also be hidden by exaggerated charge-transfer interactions induced by the SIE in GGAs. Note further that, although London dispersion as a nonlocal correlation effect is omnipresent, it can be partly quenched in typical condensed-phase chemistry applications. In such systems, intramolecular noncovalent interactions compete with intermolecular solvent interactions and their subtle balance requires a sophisticated theoretical treatment of both dispersion and solvation.
