Further, the mechanisms of glacial erosion are debated through analyses of the importance of ice thickness (Brocklehurst et al.; van der Beek and Bourbon), ice surface steepness (Vieira) and, in the case of large ice sheets, the co-evolution of ice sheet thermal regime, dynamics, and subglacial topography (Kleman et al.; Swift et al.).
On the other hand, at the northern end of the KRFZ and the southern end of the TFZ, it is difficult to recognize a continuous fault structure beyond the surface traces, because the steepness of HD becomes weak and the zero isoline of VD deviates from the strike of the surface fault trace of the two faults zone.
For a given rupture depth and dip, heterogeneous slip ocean surface displacements have greater amplitude and steepness, which can lead to greater tsunami inundation41,46.
Musgrave (1947) developed an equation considering factors reflecting the effect of rainfall and surface runoff as impacted by slope steepness and length, and vegetative cover.
Although subsurface loss of NO3 - is supposed to be the predominant process, transport through surface runoff, which is driven by slope steepness, might occur as well (Brunet et al. 2008; Mayer et al. 2005; Orlikowski et al. 2011).
These surfaces constrained by favorable rock types, slope steepness and soil types provided a potential lateritic bauxitic area of 381 km2 (17.2% of the total study site).
Our results suggest that the vertical position of larvae of S. droebachiensis and A. rubens is related to the temperatures of the surface layer and that the presence alone or the steepness of the thermocline has less influence on their distribution.

Your stride length going uphill is going to be shorter than running on a flat or downhill surface, but how much shorter will be relative to the steepness of the hill, along with your conditioning, strength, and endurance.
Winding curves and rough road surfaces are perhaps more of a challenge than the overall steepness of the hill.
By the same token, according to Eq. 3 the variation Δu translates into the variation in the N S steepness of the circum-Antarctic gradient in the barotropic sea surface height.
