Valley broad

The experimental cyclic square wave voltammograms in Fig. 7.33a show two well-defined peaks at small values of sw (Esw < AEL° /2) and a broad valley between them, with their positions being independent of Esw (compare curves...

A river is described as being braided if it splits into a number of separate channels or anabranches to adjust to a broad valley. The areas between the anabranches are occupied by islands built of gravel and sand. For the islands to remain stable, the river banks must be more erodible so that they give way rather than the islands. Braided channels occur on steeper slopes than do meanders. 

Some sites that are geoiogicaily unsuitable for a specific type of dam design may support one of composite design. For example, a broad valley that has strong rocks on one side and weaker ones on the other possibly can be spanned by a combined gravity and embankment dam, that is, a composite dam (Fig. 9.22). 

The GE curve, an the other hand, shows a totally different behaviour. It also runs along the col of SPi. But then it turns sideways and goes uphill Very strange No The behaviour is a consequence of the GE definition to indicate a valley floor line The col of SPi ends at the slope to the broad valley of Mini. Thus, the GE has to end, too. The final point is a turning point (T). The curve continues as a so-called flank line of the potential, i.e., the GE line changes from a minimum GE (VF-GE) to a maximum GE. 

Diffraction of x-rays from many atoms with many electrons results in a two-dimensional continuous pattern of peaks and valleys. Diffraction from a hquid or an amorphous (noncrystalline) soHd results in a continuous pattern with few features, mainly broad peaks and valleys. 

The basement complex for the Patagonian desert and arid northeastern Brazil is formed by metamorphosed Precambrian rocks. Landscapes are characterized by level erosion surfaces of different ages. The landscape is dissected by a large number of valleys. Large depressions are filled with marine and continental beds of sedimentary rocks. Rocks in the Andean system, that stretches the entire length of the west side of the continent, vary greatly. Many depressions are filled with sediments. In addition, many active volcanoes are responsible for periodic lava flows and the deposition of volcanic ash. East of the Andes, the land surface is level and slopes towards the Atlantic Ocean. Broad depressions contain saline or sodic soils. 

Initial inspection of Figure 10.1 showed what appears to be a cyclical pattern in the clearings and issues. This was confirmed by the statistical process control charts in Figures 10.2-10.4. The broad peaks and valleys in Figure 10.1 seem to repeat every 20 to 25 days. At first, this seemed to be a strange number of days for a cycle - a monthly cycle of 30 or 31 days would have made more sense to some of us. However, the student was quick to point out that the average business month has between 21 and 22 days (365.25 calendar days per year) x (5 business days per week) / (7 calendar days per week) = 260.89 business days per year which, when divided by 12 months, is 21.75 or approximately 22 business days per month. 

Prior to this shift, settled cultivators were few in both the lower Peninsula and lowland Sumatra. The main populations of cultivators who would later be classified Malay were in Kelantan and Patani, and appear to have called themselves by these place names or even more local ones. Their Siamese overlords distinguished them where necessary as Khek. In Sumatra, around 90 per cent of the population south of Aceh was in the highlands, and identified themselves by the lake (Toba, Ranau, Kerinci), river valley or locality around which they lived. When Muslim traders, rulers and diplomats of the hybrid lowland centres later thought of as Malay needed very broad labels to distinguish themselves from Arabs, Europeans, Chinese and other outsiders they would use...
