  2. Retention basin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retention_basin

    Storm water is typically channeled to a retention basin through a system of street and/or parking lot storm drains, and a network of drain channels or underground pipes.. The basins are designed to allow relatively large flows of water to enter, but discharges to receiving waters are limited by outlet structures that function only during very large storm eve

  3. Grade (slope) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grade_(slope)

    Slope may still be expressed when the horizontal run is not known: the rise can be divided by the hypotenuse (the slope length). This is not the usual way to specify slope; this nonstandard expression follows the sine function rather than the tangent function, so it calls a 45 degree slope a 71 percent grade instead of a 100 percent. But in ...

  4. Topographic prominence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Topographic_prominence

    Chart showing relationships between the 100 peaks with highest prominence on Earth. (In the SVG version , hover over a peak to highlight its parent(s) and click it to view its article.) The key col and parent peak are often close to the sub-peak but this is not always the case, especially when the key col is relatively low.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_landforms

    Cuesta – Hill or ridge with a gentle slope on one side and a steep slope on the other; Dissected plateau – Plateaus area that has been severely eroded so that the relief is sharp; Erg – Broad area of desert covered with wind-swept sand; Etchplain – Plain where the bedrock has been subject to considerable subsurface weathering

  6. Bar (river morphology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bar_(river_morphology)

    [1] [2] These types of river systems are associated with high slope, sediment supply, stream power, shear stress, and bed load transport rates. [2] Braided rivers have complex and unpredictable channel patterns, and sediment size tends to vary among streams. [3] It is these features that are responsible for the formations of braid bars.

  7. Stream gradient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stream_gradient

    Stream gradient (or stream slope) is the grade (or slope) of a stream. It is measured by the ratio of drop in elevation and horizontal distance. [ 1 ] It is a dimensionless quantity , usually expressed in units of meters per kilometer (m/km) or feet per mile (ft/mi); it may also be expressed in percent (%).

  8. Bathymetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bathymetry

    Topographic maps display elevation above ground and are complementary to bathymetric charts. Bathymeric charts showcase depth using a series of lines and points at equal intervals, called depth contours or isobaths (a type of contour line). A closed shape with increasingly smaller shapes inside of it can indicate an ocean trench or a seamount ...

  9. Surface irrigation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_irrigation

    The crop is planted on the ridge between furrows which may contain a single row of plants or several rows in the case of a bed-type system. Furrows may range anywhere from less than 100 to 2,000 m (0.062 to 1.243 mi) long depending on the soil type , location, and crop type.
