Glacimarine sedimentation processes at Kronebreen and Kongsvegen, Svalbard
Tidewater glaciers deposit sediment at their terminus, thereby reducing the relative water depth. Reduced water depth can lead to increased glacier stability through decreased rates of iceberg calving, glacier thinning and submarine melting. Here we investigate sedimentation processes at the termini of Kronebreen and Kongsvegen, Svalbard. We mapped the fjord floor bathymetry in August 2009 and ...
متن کاملSedimentation and Sedimentary Rocks
Sedimentary rocks are one component of the modern threefold classification of rocks. They derive from the lithification of sediments, which are produced in basically two ways: by the mechanical deposition of grains derived from the alteration of other rocks (detrital or clastic rocks), or as chemical precipitates or grains formed organically or inorganically from an aqueous solution. The whole ...
متن کاملClinical significance of extreme elevation of the erythrocyte sedimentation rate.
Charts of 1006 consecutive outpatients were reviewed to ascertain the cause of extreme elevation of the erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) (greater than or equal to 100 mm/h) and the sensitivity of marked ESR elevation in patients with disorders commonly reported to cause ESR elevation. Prevalence of ESRs of 100 mm/h or more was 4.2%. Infection was the most common cause (33%), with malignant ...
متن کاملIdentification of Sedimentary Processes on Alluvial Fans Using Aerial Thermal Images and Ground Truth
Introduction: We have previously demonstrated the viability of using thermal infrared images for mapping surface grain size distributions on terrestrial allu-vial fans [1, 2, 3]. For a well characterized alluvial fan in Owens Valley, CA we have used a quantitative analysis between aerial thermal images and ground-based grain size counts as well as a qualitative analysis between our thermal imag...
متن کاملon translation of phatic communion and socio-cultural relationships between the characters of the novels
phatic communion is a cultural concept which differs across cultures. according to hofstede (2001), the u.s. tends to have individualistic culture; however, asian countries tend to have collectivistic cultures. these cultures view phatic communion differently. in individualistic cultures like u.s., phatic communion reflects speakers’ socio-cultural relationships in conversations. to see whether...
