  3. Bedrock river - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bedrock_river

    The process that most affects a bedrock river is the suspended load. [2] Suspended load is the grains that are light enough to be carried in the water and do not contact the bed of the river unless there is an obstruction or topographic change in the bed. The way these particles erode a bedrock river is by contact with these obstructions.

  4. Channel pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_pattern

    All large rivers, and most small ones, have channels that are usually lined with alluvium, sediment that was carried to that channel reach by the river and that eventually will be carried farther downstream. [3] This lining of alluvium creates a protective shield over the bedrock, which means it takes a much greater stream power to carve the ...

  6. Plucking (glaciation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plucking_(glaciation)

    Rocks of all sizes can become trapped in the bottom of the glacier. Joint blocks up to three meters have been "plucked" and transported. [2] These entrained rock fragments can also cause abrasion along the subsequent bedrock and walls. Plucking also leads to chatter marks, wedge shaped indentations left on the bedrock or other rock surfaces. [3]

    Also amphidrome and tidal node. A geographical location where there is little or no tide, i.e. where the tidal amplitude is zero or nearly zero because the height of sea level does not change appreciably over time (meaning there is no high tide or low tide), and around which a tidal crest circulates once per tidal period (approximately every 12 hours). Tidal amplitude increases, though not ...

  8. Bed (geology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bed_(geology)

    Specifically in sedimentology, a bed can be defined in one of two major ways. [2] First, Campbell [3] and Reineck and Singh [4] use the term bed to refer to a thickness-independent layer comprising a coherent layer of sedimentary rock, sediment, or pyroclastic material bounded above and below by surfaces known as bedding planes.

    Or "giblets", gore and body chunks which fly from a game opponent when hit with such force that they rupture. [15] gimp 1. A character, character class, or character ability that is sufficiently underpowered to making using the gimp a severe handicap in the context of the game. 2. A design choice that has this effect. 3.
