Prepositions after nouns and adjectives
Hello,
I know that many nouns and adjectives are followed by prepositions. How should I arrange the sentence when there are several of these nouns? For example, I want to use 'removal', 'moderation' and 'increase' before a noun phrase. I know that we have 'removal of', 'moderation in' and 'increase in'. How should I proceed?
"Different strategies might be applied including removal, moderation and increasing the intensity of these factors."
Or
"Different strategies might be applied including removal of, moderation in, and increasing the intensity of these factors"
Thank you.
