The river drainage, the intense intermingling of waters by straits and wind, and the upwelling of deep, nutrient-laden ocean waters are all favourable to marine life.
In the present era of LiDAR based DTMs, this also implies that we can better deal with the increasing complexity of runoff response to intense rainfall for a greater drainage area (Bel et al., 2016) by making optimal use of the scalability of the GIUH.
Pluvial flood risk analysis, where intense direct rainfall overwhelms urban drainage systems, is complex and time-consuming as it is sensitive to the spatial-temporal characteristics of rainfall, topography of the terrain and surface flow processes influenced by buildings and other man-made features.
Also, tropical downpours, often short in duration but very intense, compact the soil; this causes drainage problems and leaches the soil of nutrients.
The above ideas break with traditional thinking, which includes concepts such as 'gas drainage accompanies coal exploitation with intense successive processes', 'mining from up to down', and 'choosing a non-outburst risk coal seam as the protective seam'.
The oxidation of pyrite under acidic conditions, an important process leading to the formation of acid mine drainage, has been the subject of intense research yet remains incompletely understood.
For example, glioblastomas show rapid arterial and venous phase, a clearly visible arterial supply and venous drainage, and a very strong and intense contrast enhancement, with well-defined tumor borders.
A small stream in the Great Plains of USA was sampled to understand the streamflow components following intense precipitation and the influence of water storage structures in the drainage basin.
Four weeks before the drainage procedure, he presented in the emergency department presenting with intense upper abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, induced again by heavy ethanol consumption.
The Dead Sea drainage basin offers a rare combination of well-documented substantial climate change, intense tectonics and abundant archaeological evidence for past human activity in the Southern Levant.
As intense rain storms become more frequent in a warming climate, the city's current drainage system will not be able to cope with the prolonged downpours and higher peak river flows that climate change brings.
