Sentence examples for lateral contrasts from inspiring English sources

Lateral contrasts in the development of biozones are matched by changes in the thickness and facies of lithostratigraphical units, and suggest the likely influence of basin architecture and/or tectonics of local patterns of chalk deposition.

Figure 2 shows the anomalous behavior in both the real and imaginary parts of all responses in the regions where lateral contrasts of conductivity (here controlled by bathymetry) exist (the so-called coast or ocean effect discussed in numerous papers (Lilley et al. 1979; Lilley 2005; Kuvshinov and Utada 2010).

The scaling is such that the lateral contrast in each layer is about 0.8 orders of magnitude.

When a giant impact occurs, a large lateral contrast arises in the temperature distribution of the mantle (e.g., Canup 2004).

The lateral contrast in the 100 μm wide SEM images is dominated by rather linear and parallel structures undulating, coarsely speaking, from the left side of the respective SEM image to the right side.

These authors proposed a model entailing a strong lateral contrast in conductivity where a highly conductive layer at a depth of 1.5 3 km is truncated at a position coinciding with the downward projection of the surface trace of the fault, which then acts as an impermeable barrier at depth.

This finding suggests that orientation selective mechanisms for contour integration in area V2 do not simply represent a scaled version of V1 mechanisms for lateral contrast integration.

By contrast, lateral line hair cells only show an extracellular acidification.

By contrast, lateral line hair cells showed the same cytoplasmic pHluorin2 405/488 fluorescence ratio in both wild-type siblings and merovingian mutants (Fig. 6F).

The complexity of the subsurface geology, with intercalations of compact basalt and soft pyroclastic deposits, is associated to extreme vertical and lateral velocity contrasts, and poses a serious challenge to different geophysical characterization methods.

The parameterization of the model space in the inverse problem did not conform to the target model, both in terms of layer interfaces positioned at different depths, and sharp lateral conductivity contrasts being fitted by spherical harmonics.
