The Nordic Bronze Age was characterized by a warm climate ( which is compared to that of the Mediterranean ), which permitted a relatively dense population, but it ended with a climate change consisting of deteriorating, wetter and colder climate ( sometimes believed to have given rise to the legend of the Fimbulwinter ) and it seems very likely that the climate pushed the Germanic tribes southwards into continental Europe.

* Shrublands are dense thickets of evergreen sclerophyll shrubs and small trees, and are the most common plant community around the Mediterranean.

Vegetation units as understood by phytosociologists may express largely abstract vegetation concepts ( e. g. the set of all hard-leaved evergreen forests of western Mediterranean area ) or actual readily recognizable vegetation types ( e. g. cork-oak oceanic forests on Pleistocene dunes with dense canopy in SW-Iberian Peninsula ).

An unusual property of ice frozen at atmospheric pressure is that the solid is approximately 8. 3 % less dense than liquid water.

Liquid water is densest, essentially 1. 00 g / cm³, at 4 ° C and becomes less dense as the water molecules begin to form the hexagonal crystals of ice as the freezing point is reached.

Because of the location of the shoreline — at the point where the Atlantic's cold water reach Africa — there is often extremely dense fog.

The boundary between the first and the second is characterised by risorgive springs, typical of the Padan Plain which supply fresh water both to the rivers and to a dense network of irrigation canals.

Not all algal blooms are dense enough to cause water discoloration, and not all discolored waters associated with algal blooms are red.

Therefore, it does not contract when it freezes like most substances, but expands, similar to how ice is less dense than water and has less mass per unit of volume than liquid water.

Its red ,( laterite ) dense clayey soils retain water well, which limits their agricultural potential for many crops but is ideal for keeping the water in the paddy fields and local village reservoirs.

The water observed is quickly produced in this warm dense gas.

This method works with scales that can't easily accommodate a suspended sample, and also allows for measurement of samples that are less dense than water.

This system is based on a hydroxylammonium nitrate ( HAN )/ water / fuel monopropellant blend which is extremely dense, environmentally benign, and promises good performance and simplicity.

As a generalization, Yang foods tend to be dense in food energy, especially energy from fat, while Yin foods tend to have high water content.

The structure ( often called a plastron ) typically consists of dense patches of hydrophobic setae on the body, which prevent water entry into the spiracles.

At the consumption edges of the plate, the material has thermally contracted to become dense, and it sinks under its own weight in the process of subduction at an ocean trench.

it can be seen in a pot of boiling water in which the hot and less-dense water on the bottom layer moves upwards in plumes, and the cool and more dense water near the top of the pot likewise sinks.

The southern lowlands consist of rolling limestone flatlands void of aquifer sinks and consist of dense but sparse forests of oak, walnut poplar and ash.

This is abnormal, as the dense slab typically sinks at a much steeper angle directly at the subduction zone.

In both cases the principle is the same: cold dense seawater sinks into the basalt of the seafloor and is heated at depth whereupon it rises back to the rock-ocean water interface due to its lesser density.

The resulting Antarctic Bottom Water ( AABW ) sinks and flows north into the Atlantic Basin, but is so dense it actually underflows the NADW.

A new thermocline develops where the densest water ( 4 ° C ) sinks to the bottom, and the less dense water ( water that is approaching the freezing point ) rises to the top.

This current sends Atlantic water ( AW ) into the Fram Strait, and because it is more dense then the surface Polar water it sinks to an intermediate depth.

The dense medium separation is also classified as absolute gravity separation as the sinks and the floats travel in different directions.

In temperate regions where lake water warms up and cools through the seasons, a cyclical pattern of overturn occurs that is repeated from year to year as the cold dense water at the top of the lake sinks.

Like most other Proteaceae, P. cynaroides has proteoid roots, roots with dense clusters of short lateral rootlets that form a mat in the soil just below the leaf litter.

The leaves are evergreen, long and 2 – 5 mm broad, green above, and white below, with dense short woolly hair.

* A large number of registers requires a large number of instruction bits as register specifiers, meaning less dense code ( see below ).

The very large numbers of tiny female flowers form a dense, sausage-shaped spike on the stem below the male spike — in larger species this can be up to long and thick.

Alluvial placers are formed by the deposition of dense particles at a site where water velocity remains below that required to transport them further.

A bounded operator T on a Banach space is invertible, i. e. has a bounded inverse, if and only if T is bounded below and has dense range.

An inversion layer is when the normal temperature ( warm air below, cold air above ) profile is reversed, creating a stable configuration of dense, cold air sitting below lighter, warm air.

Snow is less dense than liquid water, by a factor of approximately 10 at temperatures slightly below freezing, and even more at much colder temperatures.

Like a ball balanced on top of a hill, denser fluid lying above less dense fluid is dynamically unstable: if cool air is positioned above warm air, the former will sink and the latter will rise, the two volumes of air passing around and through each other, and perhaps mixing to some extent, until a stable condition ( with denser fluid below and lighter fluid above ) is achieved.

Satellite gravity field measurements show a positive gravity anomaly centered on the caldera complex, suggesting the presence of a 600x300 km north-south elongated extinct magma chamber below, containing dense minerals ( probably mainly pyroxene, with olivine also possible ) that precipitated out of magma before eruptions.

The leaves are dark green above and pale whitish-grey with dense short hairs below.

One of Gelfand's original applications ( and one which historically motivated much of the study of Banach algebras ) was to give a much shorter and more conceptual proof of a celebrated lemma of Norbert Wiener ( see the citation below ), characterizing the elements of the group algebras L < sup > 1 </ sup >( R ) and whose translates span dense subspaces in the respective algebras.

The female builds a well-concealed nest on the ground below dense vegetation, especially Eragrostis variabilis bunchgrass.

In functional analysis, it is often convenient to define a linear transformation on a complete, normed vector space by first defining a linear transformation on a dense subset of and then extending to the whole space via the theorem below.

include open woodlands, rolling hills, and meadows which contrast sharply with dense redwood forests below.

These bats are typically found roosting, usually on tree branches, but sometimes in hollow trees or even man-made structures, in dense, lowland neotropical forests, below an elevation of.

The Americans worked their way to the fort through dense woods, which Native American allies of the British protected, finally emerging into a clearing below Fort George.

The Gravberg-1 well location, in the north-northeast section of the ring, was chosen because a gravity anomaly indicates less dense rock below, and four seismic reflectors may represent cap rock above a natural gas reservoir.

The leaves are stiff, sharp and needle-like, 15 – 25 mm long, flattened in cross-section, dark glaucous blue-green above with two or three thin lines of stomata, and blue-white below with two dense bands of stomata.

One can easily check that if T − λ is one-to-one, bounded below ( i. e. does not send far apart elements of X too close together ), and has dense range, then in fact T − λ must be onto, so λ will not be in σ ( T ).

The descriptions below are based on relatively clear skies, so the sky will be darker in the presence of dense cloud.

In soil science, agriculture and gardening, hardpan or ouklip is a general term for a dense layer of soil, usually found below the uppermost topsoil layer.

After climbing the rock patch from the Tolar Khind, follow the usual trek route going ahead and at one point, you will encounter two ways one to the right goes to the temple through seven hills and the straight one goes below the balekilla ( citadel ) through very dense forests ( the trees are very dense that you can't even view the sky above your head ) and this route reaches to the seventh mountain directly.
