In its course from Lake Victoria to Juba in southern Sudan, the White Nile's channel drops more than 600 m. In its 1, 600-km course from Juba to Khartoum, Sudan's capital, the river descends just 75 m. In southern and central Sudan, the White Nile passes through a wide, flat plain covered with swamp vegetation and slows almost to the point of stagnation.

Downstream from its headwaters, it splits into two ; one-third of its flow passes through the Brazo Casiquiare ( Casiquiare Channel ) into a tributary of the Amazon, and the remainder passes into the main Orinoco channel.

In a data transmission circuit a backward channel is the channel that passes data in a direction opposite to that of its associated forward channel.

This gas flow passes through the centre of the plasma, where it forms a channel that is cooler than the surrounding plasma but still much hotter than a chemical flame.

This shows how a pure frequency, e. g., a pure sinusoid, which is an impulse in the frequency domain is spread out across frequency when it passes through the channel.

Here, where the river turns south and passes the channel leading to the staithes at Stalham and Sutton, the river banks of Barton Fen are crowded with trees, marshes, and reeds, the latter formerly harvested and used for thatching for centuries past.

A guillotine sluice isolates the main channel of the river when flood water is diverted into the Cut-off Channel, and the river then passes over the channel in a concrete aqueduct.

Downstream of central Bristol the river passes through the deep Avon Gorge, spanned by Brunel's Clifton Suspension Bridge, the river is tidal and is navigable by sea going vessels at high tide but drying to a steep sided muddy channel at low tide.

A branch leaves the main channel, passes under the A156 bridge, and immediately enters Torksey lock, which is the only lock on the canal.

Many scanners use an additional infrared channel to detect defects, as the long wave infrared radiation passes through the film but not through dust particles.

Using computer simulations, it has been suggested that the orientation of the water molecules moving through the channel assures that only water passes between cells, due to the formation of a single line of water molecules.

The channel of the Hudson as it passes through the harbor is called the Anchorage Channel and is approximately 50 feet deep in the midpoint of the harbor.

This channel passes a mixed inward cationic ( predominantly carried by Na < sup >+</ sup > ions although the channel is also permeable to Ca < sup > 2 +</ sup >) current of a magnitude that is inversely proportional to temperature.

Northeast of Wharton it emerges from the mountains and flows generally east in a meandering course, past Wharton, Dover ( where it enters a concrete channel ), Rockaway, Denville and Boonton, where it passes through the Boonton Gorge.

One of these streams passes straight through the vaporiser in the bypass channel.

A quick passing movement like a pair of one-two passes will leave the channel behind the defending full-back open.

The River Brent passes through it, flowing from east to west in a man-made channel.

There is some evidence that calcium channel blocker type drugs such as Nifedipine and Verapamil are effective in treating some of the symptoms that remain after the initial sickness passes, such as poor circulation and shooting pains through the chest.

The channel can clearly be seen where it flows under one of the entrances to the Oracle shopping centre, and also where it passes under Reading Central Library.

In a 2D image element, which stores a color for each pixel, additional data is stored in the alpha channel with a value between 0 and 1.

The channel frequencies chosen represent a compromise between allowing enough bandwidth for video ( and hence satisfactory picture resolution ), and allowing enough channels to be packed into the available frequency band.

Passband bandwidth is the difference between the upper and lower cutoff frequencies of, for example, an bandpass filter, a communication channel, or a signal spectrum.

Several proteins coded for in the tra or trb locus seem to open a channel between the bacteria and it is thought that the traD enzyme, located at the base of the pilus, initiates membrane fusion.

A channel of the Çarşamba river once flowed between the two mounds, and the settlement was built on alluvial clay which may have been favourable for early agriculture.

In their view, the computational medium in cyberspace is an augmentation of the communication channel between real people ; the core characteristic of cyberspace is that it offers an environment that consists of many participants with the ability to affect and influence each other.

The difference between the avalanche diode ( which has a reverse breakdown above about 6. 2 V ) and the Zener is that the channel length of the former exceeds the mean free path of the electrons, so there are collisions between them on the way out.

We can distinguish between pure-click and brick and click channel system adopted by companies.

This gate permits electrons to flow through or blocks their passage by creating or eliminating a channel between the source and drain.

Field-effect transistors are also distinguished by the method of insulation between channel and gate.

The fragile insulating layer of the MOSFET between the gate and channel makes it vulnerable to electrostatic damage during handling.

Bishop Hans Brask's original justifications for the canal's construction were the onerous Sound Dues imposed by Denmark – Norway on all vessels passing through the narrow Øresund channel between Sweden and Denmark and the trouble with the Hanseatic League.

Once a call is set up, there is a simple 64 kbit / s synchronous bidirectional data channel ( actually implemented as two simplex channels, one in each direction ) between the end parties, lasting until the call is terminated.

There is usually a trade-off between interrupt latency, throughput ( the average rate of successful message delivery over a communication channel ), and processor utilization.

In an archipelago like the Hawaiian Islands the water between islands is typically called a channel or passage.

Lundy is the largest island in the Bristol Channel, lying off the coast of Devon, England, approximately one third of the distance across the channel between England and Wales.

When a fluid is flowing through a closed channel such as a pipe or between two flat plates, either of two types of flow may occur depending on the velocity of the fluid: laminar flow or turbulent flow.

The channel is approximately across at its narrowest point between Angoche, Mozambique, and Tambohorano, Madagascar.

The aim of digital modulation is to transfer a digital bit stream over an analog bandpass channel, for example over the public switched telephone network ( where a bandpass filter limits the frequency range to between 300 and 3400 Hz ), or over a limited radio frequency band.

In 1923 the current Radboud University Nijmegen was founded and in 1927 a channel was dug between the Waal and Maas rivers.

Currently the width of the channel is between and it is dredged to a depth of below Amsterdam Ordnance Datum.
