I'd have to see how "hétérogène" is used - non-uniform is OK, but maybe "varying" is better.

: "homogenEOus" ; "homogenous" is a specific biological term and frequently confused for "homogeneous" // not likely to be "pop. homogène, but rather an indiscriminate population study

Population is homogeneous (homogenous) not the distribution (repartition). Otherwise the French has to say "repartition homogene".
