Long Island Clast Orientations
Long Island glacigenic surface deposits, where exposed, are ideal for geologic field studies of Pleistocene glacial settings. Numerous outcrop exposures, found scattered throughout the island, delineate many of the deposit types associated with a full spectrum of glacial facies currently observable at active continental ice sheet margins. By directly field sampling axial orientations of a numbe...
متن کاملAntidunes on steep slopes
16 When increasing the rates of subcritical flow on gentle slopes, the bed successively produces 17 ripples, dunes and flat beds. Antidunes (defined here as all bed undulations for which the 18 surface gravity waves are in phase with the bed profile) appear only in high flow rates and 19 may be found in some extreme natural flow events. Inversely, on steep slopes flume 20 experiment (S≥1% appro...
متن کاملDeath on the slopes
Introduction The field of cell-death research has matured since pioneering discoveries showed that apoptosis is regulated genetically. Although many of the core caspase-signalling pathways are known, some of the most basic aspects of the biochemistry of mitochondrial apoptosis induction have remained elusive and are, in certain cases, controversial. Research on the metabolic dysfunction that oc...
متن کاملPerceiving "Walk-on-able" Slopes
Prospective control of walking and running requires perceiving sloping surfaces that can and cannot support these activities. Two experiments on slant perception were conducted, motivated by the notion of geographical slant rather than optical slant, and by an affordance based description of surface layout. In Experiment 1, participants standing on a horizontal surface (the ground) adjusted the...
متن کاملFrequencies, Microclimate and Root Properties for Three Codominant Perennials in the Northwestern Sonoran Desert on North- vs. South-facing Slopes
At a site in the northwestern Sonoran Desert the percent ground cover for the C $ subshrub Encelia farinosa was eighttimes higher on more arid 20° south-facing slopes than on 20° north-facing slopes at 820 m elevation, and was sixtimes higher on north-facing slopes at a 300-m-lower elevation, also the more arid condition. The ground cover of the C % bunchgrass Pleuraphis rigida decreased over 5...
