Sentence examples for be explained by lateral from inspiring English sources

High stemflow amounts and canopy driplines at the crown edge of particular tree species can only be explained by lateral flow processes within tree crowns.

Observed dynamo properties that require boundary heterogeneity may alternatively be explained by lateral anomalies at the inner core boundary.

Therefore, we concluded that this phenomenon is better explained by a landslide; specifically, it can be explained by lateral spread (Varnes 1978), which commonly occurs on gentle slopes and is characterized by fluid-like flow movement.

Here, we demonstrate that along-strike variations observed for tectonic tremors, slow slip events, and seismic coupling can be explained by lateral differences in the thermal structure of the subduction zone, which are controlled mainly by variations in convergence rate and friction along the plate interface.
