Sentence examples for sediments up from inspiring English sources

The wavy bedding of the packed crystal beds may imply that they were generated below the seafloor, pushing the upper and lower sediments up and down, respectively, in an early diagenetic stage (Fig. 2b).

During floods, turbid plumes of dissolved and suspended materials enter the GBR Lagoon, where winds drive them northward along the coast [123] depositing a thick wedge of muddy sediments up to 15 20 km wide.

Although these rates were not directly measured but were modeled from the pore fluid sulfate concentration profile, they are much higher than those that have been observed in deep-sea sediments (up to 7 orders of magnitude higher— Turchyn et al., 2006; Wortmann et al., 2007; Antler et al., 2013).

Increased current alone was also observed not to initiate swimming behaviour from non-desirable sediments up to a friction velocity (U*) of 1·02 cm s−1.

Carp eDNA was 8 1800 times more concentrated per gram of sediment than per milliliter of water and was detected in sediments up to 132 days after carp removal – five times longer than any previous reports of macrobial eDNA persistence in water.

The coastal sediments are reworked by the action of waves, tides, longshore currents and wind, which are effective processes for sorting the mineral grains based on differences in their size and density, resulting in laminated or lens-shaped packages of sediments up to tens of meters thick that are rich in heavy minerals.

One core sediment (up to 21 m depth from surface) was taken through borehole drilled with the help of local drillers using hand percussion technique (Kumar et al. 2010).

The highest environmental concentrations of the Cry1Ab protein were found in runoff water and sediment, up to 130 ng L−1 and 143 ng g−1 dry weight, respectively, with the Cry1Ab protein detected in both Bt and non-Bt maize fields.

Using high-throughput sequencing of DNA from river sediment up and downstream from the Indian treatment plant [11] we identified a high prevalence of resistance genes from multiple classes of antibiotics.

Here we show that the river sediments are also contaminated by high levels of ciprofloxacin downstream from the treatment plant (up to 914 µg/g organic matter), and moderately elevated levels were found in upstream sediment (up to 7.1 µg/g organic matter) (Figure 1, Tables S1, S2 and S3).

In further experiments two strategies were followed, the extraction of huge amounts of sediment (up to 5 l, not shown here) or the cultivation of the benzene community in batch-cultures in the laboratory.
