Sentence examples for thickness of event from inspiring English sources

Furthermore, event layer thickness corresponded to the maxima of detrital flux was positively related to the total amount of precipitation during a flood event [(thickness of event layer: mm) = 0.34 + 0.0023 × (precipitation: mm); R = 0.74].

We observed a strong positive linear relationship (thickness of event layer (mm) = 0.34 + 0.0023 × (precipitation: mm); R = 0.74) for all event layers except E14 and E17, which are exceptionally thick (2.85 and 3.5 mm, respectively).

Fig. 7 a Thicknesses of event layers I, II, III, and IV with distance from shoreline.

However, the thicknesses of event layers E14 and E17 vary significantly within the lake, indicating that E14 and E17 include large amounts of detrital materials that were directly supplied from the slopes surrounding the lake.

Based on the scanned images of half-split cores of near-surface sediments obtained from different parts of the lake (Fig. 9a), the thicknesses of event layers were similar throughout the lake, with the exceptions of layers E14 and E17 (Fig. 9b).

In the landward half of the transect (from NM-F to NM-L), the thickness of the event layers decreased landward.

L, W and T correspond respectively to length, width and thickness of the event and are illustrated in the Fig. 5.

Furthermore, the thickness of instantaneous event layers, which corresponds to several maxima of detrital flux and is correlated with floods that occurred mainly during typhoons, showed a positive relationship with the total amount of precipitation that caused a flood event.

Fig. 8 The relationship between the total precipitation during historical floods and the thickness of the corresponding event layers Fig. 9 a Scanned images of cores derived from Lake Suigetsu in 2014.

Based on this result, the record of typhoon-caused flood events can go back to older period (e.g., last glacial period) on the basis of the occurrence, and thickness, or mass flux of event layers using long sediment cores from Lake Suigetsu.

A statistical analysis of the thicknesses of single-event sand bodies attributed to sandy debris flows shows that the layers are generally less than 2 m thick (Fig. 9, blue bars).
