According to one principle of classification, an emergent coastline is a coastline which has experienced a fall in sea level, because of either a global sea level change, or local uplift.

The collapse of the transient cavity is driven by gravity, and involves both the uplift of the central region and the inward collapse of the rim.

The central uplift is not the result of elastic rebound, which is a process in which a material with elastic strength attempts to return to its original geometry ; rather the collapse is a process in which a material with little or no strength attempts to return to a state of gravitational equilibrium.

Farther north in the Ostrobothnia area, uplift is more rapid, it amounts to eighty or ninety centimetres a century.

The study of finance is subsumed under economics as financial economics, but the scope, speed, power relations and practices of the financial system can uplift or cripple whole economies and the well-being of households, businesses and governing bodies within them — sometimes in a single day.

Since uplift and erosion are more or less in equilibrium in the Himalaya, rapid uplift is balanced by annual increments of cubic kilometers of sediments washing down from the mountains, then on the plains settling out of suspension on vast alluvial fans or inland deltas over which rivers meander and change course at least every few decades, causing some experts to question whether manmade embankments can contain the problem of flooding.

Convectional currents are easily set up within the airmass whenever there is little instability in the airmass as a result of a slight to a very high orographic uplift in mountainous regions like the obudu plateau or the heating of the land which can trigger the formation of cumulonimbus cloud leading to thunderstorms within the airmass.

The spine that forms the divide is the highly eroded arch of an uplift from the sea bottom, in which peaks were formed by volcanic intrusions.

The uplift of the Earth's crust is continuing even today-2mm per year.

The associated tectonic uplift would form high plateaus, just as the East African Rift is responsible for high topography ; this high ground could then host glaciers.

* Hook fixing is particularly suitable in regions subject to severe weather conditions since there is a greater resistance to wind uplift as the lower edge of the slate is secured.

The uplift on the Black Mountains is so fast that the alluvial fans ( fan-shaped deposits at the mouth of canyons ) there are small and steep compared to the huge alluvial fans coming off the Panamint Range.

Near the center of the caldera there is a mound called the " resurgent dome " that was formed by magmatic uplift.

The uplift of the Colorado Plateau is uneven, and the Kaibab Plateau that Grand Canyon bisects is over a thousand feet higher at the North Rim ( about ) than at the South Rim.

The atmosphere is a dynamic system, and the local conditions of turbulence, uplift and other parameters give rise to many types of clouds.

The sequence of repeated cycles of sedimentation, deposition and erosion, followed by burial and metamorphism, and then by formation of granitic batholiths and tectonic uplift to form mountain chains, is called the orogenic cycle.

Hudson Bay is in the region of the most rapid uplift.

The topography of the Sierra is shaped by uplift and glacial action.

Once deglaciation was complete, uplift slowed to about 2. 5 cm / year, and decreased exponentially after that.

Today, typical uplift rates are of the order of 1 cm / year or less, and studies suggest that rebound will continue for about another 10, 000 years.

The study of metamorphic rocks ( now exposed at the Earth's surface following erosion and uplift ) provides information about the temperatures and pressures that occur at great depths within the Earth's crust.

The great depth of the Grand Canyon and especially the height of its strata ( most of which formed below sea level ) can be attributed to 5, 000 to 10, 000 feet ( 1500 to 3000 m ) of uplift of the Colorado Plateau, starting about 65 million years ago ( during the Laramide Orogeny ).

Micheaux constructed Within Our Gates to educate his audience about racism, uplift, peonage, women's rights, and the urban " new Negro " emerging after the Great Migration.

The regional economy has been in steady decline for many years, with only a small uplift brought about by the global real estate bubble.

The area remained buried throughout the Paleozoic Era, but was exposed again to erosion during the tectonic uplift about 70 million years ago.

" He added that his interest in social and economic questions led him to preach about " building a society and building institutions that would uplift mankind.

From year to year, they either rise or fall, with an average net uplift of about one inch per year.

An uplift of this kind occurred when the north Atlantic ocean opened about 54 million years ago.

Following the uplift in sales for all of Rolls-Royce, and resurgence of the Bentley marque, the then-owner, Vickers, set about preparing a new model to replace the derivatives of the Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit / Bentley Mulsanne which it had been selling since 1980.

The same rockfall impact, in combination with strong ground movements, the net vertical crustal uplift of about, and an overall tilting seaward of the entire crustal block on which Lituya Bay was situated, generated the giant wave which swept the main body of the bay.

In Sweden, Lake Mälaren was formerly an arm of the Baltic Sea, but uplift eventually cut it off and led to its becoming a freshwater lake in about the 12th century, at the time when Stockholm was founded at its outlet.

Results of GPS data shows a peak rate of about 11 mm / year in the north part of the Gulf of Bothnia, but this uplift rate decreases away and becomes negative outside the former ice margin.

Its purposes were to uplift and strengthen women of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ( LDS Church ) and to educate those not of the Mormon faith about the women of Mormonism.

Early Jurassic uplift created an unconformity above the Chinle Formation that represents about ten million years of missing sedimentation between it and the next formation, the Moenave.

These layers have undergone 5000 to 10, 000 feet ( 1500 to 3000 m ) of uplift starting about 65 million years ago with the Laramide orogeny which has increased the ability of the Colorado River to cut its channel to make individual plateaus out of the Colorado Plateaus region.

About 200 million years ago, increased tectonic activity caused the uplift of the Idaho Batholith, a portion of which cooled and eroded to become the present main body of the Bitterroot Range, a major physiographic feature of the watershed which sweeps from northwest to southeast along the entire Clark Fork valley ( and the border of Idaho and Montana ), by about 70 million years ago.

The uplift of the range dates to the Laramide orogeny, about 70 to 50 million years ago, when compressive forces produced high-angle reverse faults on both north and south sides of the present mountain range.

The crater contains a central uplift about in diameter, rising about above the base level of the crater.

This uplift currently lies beneath about of sediment deposited since the impact, and was discovered in the 1960s during oil shale deposits exploration.

The depression has a topographic rim 25 – 30 m high, while the centre displays a slight circular rise about 1 km in diameter and 5 m high exposing strongly deformed and steeply dipping bedrock interpreted as a central uplift .< sup >,</ sup > Sedimentary rocks comprising the rim are of Early Cretaceous to Palaeogene age, while uplifted rocks in the centre are likely of Early Permian age, all part of the Canning Basin ; the impact event itself is inferred to be of Paleocene ( early Paleogene ) age or later .< sup >,</ sup >

The hills surrounding the valley in which Groesbeek lies are technically the terminal moraines of those glaciers, but in contrast to the hills in the central and eastern Netherlands, these hills are rising by 0. 5-0. 8 mm / year due to tectonic uplift.

Today, typical uplift rates are of the order of 1 cm / year or less.

They raise millions of dollars every year to combat heart disease and cancer, help children with disabilities, and uplift the aged and others.
