topographies
(noun)
A detailed graphic representation of the surface features of a place or object.
Examples of topographies in the following topics:
-
Soil Formation
- Soil formation is the result of a combination of five factors: parent material, climate, topography, biological factors, and time.
- Five factors account for soil formation: parent material, climate, topography, biological factors, and time.
- Topography affects water runoff, which strips away parent material and affects plant growth.
-
Emission Topography
-
Neural Mechanisms (Cortex)
- Topography of the primary motor cortex, on an outline drawing of the human brain.
-
Soil Composition
- Soil quality, a major determinant, along with climate, of plant distribution and growth, depends not only on the chemical composition of the soil, but also the topography (regional surface features) and the presence of living organisms.
-
Specialty Microscopes and Contrast
- The electron beam of the microscope interacts with the electrons in the sample and produces signals that can be detected and have information about the topography and composition.
-
Motor Areas
- $$Topography of the human motor cortex, including the premotor cortex, SMA, primary motor cortex, primary somatosensory cortex, and posterior parietal cortex.
-
Agricultural Diversity
- The diversity is driven by the demands of the topography, the limited movement of people, and the demands created by crop rotation for different varieties that will do well in different fields and microclimates.
-
Virtual Worlds
- Example rules are gravity, topography, locomotion, real-time actions and communication.
-
Role Theory
- Example rules are gravity, topography, locomotion, real-time actions and communication.
-
The Propylaea and the Erechtheion
- The odd design of the temple, built from 421 to 405 BCE by the architect Mnesicles, results from the site's topography and the temple's incorporation of numerous ancient sites.
