End moraines, or terminal moraines, are ridges of unconsolidated debris deposited at the snout or end of the glacier.

The eastern sides of the ridges, where the sedimentary layers have faulted, are steep and spectacular, beyond the vertical in places-notably at Hollow Mountain near Dadswell's Bridge at the northern end of the ranges.

The river flows just north of Bald Eagle Mountain ( one of the northernmost ridges of the Ridge-and-valley Appalachians ) through much of its course in Lycoming County, but it passes the end of the mountain and turns south just before the borough of Muncy ( on the east bank ).

This stretch of coast originally consisted of salt marshes protected from the sea by ridges of shingle and sand, and Holkham's Iron Age fort stood at the end of a sandy spit surrounded by the tidal wetland.

The towns line the western end of the San Geronimo Valley, extending into the forested south ridges and slightly into the grassier northern ones.

Except for where the valleys empty into the small bays, the islands are remarkable for their mountain ridges, which end abruptly as cliffs where they meet the sea.

Sumner is nestled in a coastal valley separated from the adjacent city suburbs by rugged volcanic hill ridges that end in cliffs that descend to the sea shore in places.

Furthermore, transform faults end abruptly and are connected on both ends to other faults, ridges, or subduction zones.

Descent from such ridges is very limited, so once committed, the scrambler must continue to the end.

The town itself is laid out on a grid pattern over levelled-ground, with two unsealed roads leading a few kilometres beyond the mountain ridges at either end of the village.

At the end of the Civil War, most of the bottomlands behind the ridges were still covered in heavy dense growth of trees, bushes and vines.

Descent from such ridges is very limited, so once committed, the scrambler must continue to the end.

Further ridges fan out east and west from the southern end of Skiddaw.

The Aravalli range are the oldest fold mountains in India. The northern end of the range continues as isolated hills and rocky ridges into Haryana state, ending in Delhi.

A distinct gully runs from the south of the quarantine station and terminates at the sea on the southern end of the island between two ( now ) largely forested ridges on either side to the east and west.

The area is in the southern end of the Sierra Nevada range and the lake itself is located in low mountains at an elevation of approximately 2, 500 feet ( 760 m ) where summer temperatures reach over 100 degrees (° F ) but low enough to avoid winter snows on the surrounding ridges.

The top has an east-west axis with ridges running out north and south from each end.

Metacomet Ridge is a series of narrow Traprock ridges where lava penetrated this rift zone, beginning at the northern end of the graben near Greenfield and extending south across Massachusetts and Connecticut to Long Island Sound.

The range forms the northeast end of the Horlick Mountains and consists primarily of a large snow-topped plateau with steep northern cliffs and several flat-topped ridges and mountains.

It features a chain of high volcanic mountain ridges which rises to a height of 1, 298 meters ( 4, 257 ft ) at its northern end ( Mount Augusta ).

There are also a series of grand gold collars, representing a development of the lunula, with round plates at either end, and a broad corrugated " U "- shaped body, decorated geometrically along the ridges and troughs of the corrugations.

The crater pair of Weierstrass and Van Vleck have formed an indented rim along the northeast face, while the northwest rim is overlain by Gilbert S. The interior floor is relatively level with some low ridges running down the center toward the southern end.

This includes: the south fork of Nicasio Creek extending from Moon Hill, along the ridge separating Nicasio from San Geronimo and Samuel P. Taylor parks, and extending northwest towards the northern end of Platform Bridge Road ; the east fork of Nicasio Creek extending from Loma Alta and the ridge on the north side of Sir Francis Drake Boulevard, extending up through Big Rock and up towards Big-Rock Ridge ; the Halleck Creek drainage, up to the ridges separating Nicasio from Lucas Valley and Novato ; the northern drainages extending along the ridgelines of Rocky Ridge, Hicks Mountain and Black Mountain.

The rim has a low cut through the southern end, and the eastern rim is attached to low ridges belonging to the Montes Haemus.

Recessional moraines are often observed as a series of transverse ridges running across a valley behind a terminal moraine.

The Adelsö landscape consists of pine-clad rocky hills and moraine ridges dotted with fields and deciduous trees, mainly oak.

The region has gently rolling moraine hills left over from the retreating glaciers, as well as small sandy ridges, which were formed as coastal dunes during periods in which Lake Erie was higher than it is today ( 14, 000-12, 000 years ago ).

Glaciers extended well down the mountain forming moraine ridges, clearly visible now on the southern flanks down to about.

Kate had no idea what they were talking of, although she had seen the blue lights and strange fires burning and winking on the ridges at night, had heard horsemen on the River Road and hill trails through the nights till dawn.

The shelter provided by these two mountainous ridges has produced a " micro climate " which provides relatively mild temperatures for the region and, coupled with the fertile glacial sedimentary soils on the valley floor, the region is conducive to growing vegetable and fruit crops.

*** Charbroiling-direct dry heat on a solid surface with wide raised ridges.

*** Gridironing-direct dry heat on a solid or hollow surface with narrow raised ridges.

During early development of the vertebrate embryo, a longitudinal groove on the neural plate gradually deepens and the ridges on either side of the groove ( the neural folds ) become elevated, and ultimately meet, transforming the groove into a closed tube, the ectodermal wall of which forms the rudiment of the nervous system.

Mid-ocean ridges, high regions on the seafloor where hydrothermal vents and volcanoes exist, were explained as divergent boundaries, where two plates move apart.

The sulphides are found around volcanic hot springs, especially in the western Pacific Ocean, while the crusts occur on oceanic ridges and elsewhere at several locations around the world.

Where the ridges between sinkholes in the plateau area have dissolved, flat-bottomed basins or valleys have been formed that are filled with terra rosa soils, some of the most productive on the island.

These special resting places, usually located on ridges with a cool sea breeze, are marked with droppings and are cleared of vegetation.

Vertical ridges etched on the surface are smooth .</ li > < li > Twisted nematic liquid crystal .</ li > < li > Glass substrate with common electrode film ( ITO ) with horizontal ridges to line up with the horizontal filter .</ li > < li > Polarizing filter film with a horizontal axis to block / pass light .</ li > < li > Reflective surface to send light back to viewer.

Except on the west coast, where the white sandy beach is more extensive than elsewhere, a strip of dark gray coral rubble, forming a series of low ridges parallel to the coast, lies within the narrow beach, extending inward to the island rim.

The ancient stone structures are located around the beach ridges, principally on the north and south sides.

Substrata of impermeable rock and stone can trap water and retain it in pockets ; or on long faulting subsurface ridges or volcanic dikes water can collect and percolate to the surface.

Tabonuco trees are especially large on ridges, where they are firmly rooted in the rocky substrate and connected by root grafts with each other.

A ridging plough has two mouldboards facing away from each other, cutting a deep furrow on each pass, with high ridges either side.

In addition to adopting the darker grey colour scheme which co-ordinated with the official corporate look, they also adopted a raised series of ridges mimicking the indented lines on the desktops.

This allowed for an explanation of why the Klingons on The Original Series lacked brow ridges and were much more human looking than Klingons in any of the other series ; they were mutants created by faulty genetic engineering.

They also have ridges on either side of their foreheads, ridges surrounding their eyes, and protrusions on their chins and below their noses.

Female Cardassians have blue-tinted spots on their neck ridges and forehead.
