If the river breaches its natural levees ( i. e., during a flood ), it will spill out onto a new course with a shorter route to the ocean, thereby obtaining a more stable steeper slope.

This will make it easier for the river to breach its levees and cut a new channel that enters the body of standing water at a steeper slope.

The hill was subsequently expanded slightly a few times afterwards, including blasting it steeper, chopping it wider, and covering the landing slope with earth and sowing grass to improve the profile.

Happy Isles is located where the slope of the Merced River changes from the much steeper upper main stem to the essentially flat Valley floor.

To the right of the rocks the névé lay in a more even, but still steeper slope ; and after an attempt made by C. Almer and C. Michel to cut their way up it, the hardness of the snow and the perilous steepness of the wall induced them to return in order to try the alternative course by the seracs.

* 378: Similar to the 379, the 378 has a fiberglass hood and steeper hood slope.

The steeper the slope, the faster the creep.

This is because while the upward sloping aggregate labor supply would remain unchanged, instead of using the downward labor demand curve shown in the diagram above, monopsonistic employers would use a steeper downward sloping curve corresponding to marginal expenditures to yield the intersection with the supply curve resulting in a wage rate lower than would be the case under competition.

Unequal fissions are energetically more favorable because this allows one product to be closer to the energetic minimum near mass 60 u ( only a quarter of the average fissionable mass ), while the other nucleus with mass 135 u is still not far out of the range of the most tightly bound nuclei ( another statement of this, is that the atomic binding energy curve is slightly steeper to the left of mass 120 u than to the right of it ).

This is nothing but a steeper version of the short-run Phillips curve above.

Critics feel that there are some downsides as these technologies are more prone to failure and have a much steeper learning curve for the user than a standard overhead projector.

Past Phoenicia, the surrounding slopes become steeper as the road and creek curve around Panther Mountain, one of the Catskill High Peaks, to the south.

Note that this case, with g – b > 0, is the case in which the supply curve, if negatively sloped, is steeper than the demand curve.

While PMA can reportedly be euphoric at low doses, the dose-response curve is much steeper than that of MDMA, and at higher doses unpleasant effects such as nausea and vomiting, severe hyperthermia and hallucinations quickly overpower any pleasurable effects.

Confronting an action / shooter gamer with strategy or a strategy player with action tends to force them outside their genre " comfort zone " and requires a steeper learning curve.

* If the supply curve is steeper than the demand curve, then the fluctuations decrease in magnitude with each cycle, so a plot of the prices and quantities over time would look like an inward spiral, as shown in the first diagram.

An amalgamation between the game engines of FIFA 2002 and FIFA 2003, the game still incorporates the power bar for shots and crosses but with a steeper learning curve and higher chances of being penalized by the match referee.

The sheath forces it to follow a curve steeper than the rotor's natural ballistic curve, which, in turn, exerts a reactive centrifugal force on the sheath, holding it aloft.

The J is steeper on the left hand side, as it is easier for a leader in a failed state to create stability by closing the country than to build a civil society and establish accountable institutions ; the curve is higher on the far right than left because states that prevail in opening their societies ( Eastern Europe, for example ) ultimately become more stable than authoritarian regimes.

This system allows use on steeper grades than the other systems, whose teeth could jump out of the rack.

Secondarily, leveling changes a combine's center of gravity relative to the hill and allows the combine to harvest along the contour of a hill without tipping, a very real danger on the steeper slopes of the region ; it is not uncommon for combines to roll on extremely steep hills.

In a typical STOL landing flaps will be set to 45 ° before landing which allows for a slower approach speed ( typically 70 – 85 knots ) and steeper descent.

# An adiabat looks similar to an isotherm, except that during an expansion, an adiabat loses more pressure than an isotherm, so it has a steeper inclination ( more vertical ).

This river has a steeper gradient and therefore flows more swiftly than the White Nile, which it joins at Khartoum.

Longer, steeper slopes ( especially those without adequate vegetative cover ) are more susceptible to very high rates of erosion during heavy rains than shorter, less steep slopes.

Traditional kayaks encompass three types: Baidarkas, from the Alaskan & Aleutian seas, the oldest design, whose rounded shape and numerous chines give them an almost Blimp-like appearance ; West Greenland kayaks, with fewer chines and a more angular shape, with gunwales rising to a point at the bow and stern ; and East Greenland kayaks that appear similar to the West Greenland style, but often fit more snugly to the paddler and possess a steeper angle between gunwale and stem, which lends maneuvrability.

However, higher heating temperatures cause the colors to spread less, creating a much steeper grade, while lower temperatures can make the change more gradual, using a smaller portion of the entire continuum.

Surfers generally find a shortboard very quick to maneuver compared with other types of surfboards, but because of a lack of flotation due to the smaller size, harder to catch waves with, often requiring steeper, larger and more powerful waves and very late takeoffs, where the surfer catches the wave at the critical moment before it breaks.

The eastern boundary is formed by a long escarpment, the Sapouné Heights, averaging 600 feet high, and pierced by two passes only: the metalled Woronstov road, and, at the southern end of the heights, the Col, through which ran a steeper and more difficult road leading from the west end of Sevastopol to Balaclava.

There is a remarkable similarity between the Vosges and the corresponding range of the Black Forest on the other side of the Rhine: both lie within the same degrees of latitude, have similar geological formations and are characterized by forests on their lower slopes, above which are open pastures and rounded summits of a rather uniform altitude ; furthermore, both exhibit steeper slopes towards the Rhine and a more gradual descent on the other side.

In the new company, the disadvantages of the Midland ’ s route were clear — its steeper gradients and greater length meant it could not compete on speed from London to Glasgow, especially as Midland route trains had to make more stops to serve major cities in the Midlands and Yorkshire.

Whereas because shingle beaches are much steeper than sandy ones, plunging breakers are more likely to form, causing the majority of long shore transport to occur in the swash zone, due to a lack of surf zone.
