  2. Channel types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_types

    A wide variety of river and stream channel types exist in limnology, the study of inland waters.All these can be divided into two groups by using the water-flow gradient as either low gradient channels for streams or rivers with less than two percent (2%) flow gradient, or high gradient channels for those with greater than a 2% gradient.

  3. Channel pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_pattern

    These channels are classified as a composite form of which the individual channel belts may have braided, meandering or straight channels. Although similar to, and even encompass other channel types, anastomosed rivers are their own entity and have just begun to be studied by geologists , revealing that much is still unknown.

  4. Anastomosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anastomosis

    Vein skeleton of a Hydrangea leaf showing anastomoses of veins. An anastomosis (/ ə ˌ n æ s t ə ˈ m oʊ s ɪ s /, pl.: anastomoses) is a connection or opening between two things (especially cavities or passages) that are normally diverging or branching, such as between blood vessels, leaf veins, or streams.

  5. Bar (river morphology) - Wikipedia

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

    These channels are separated by mid-channel or braid bars. Anastomosing river channels also create mid-channel bars, however they are typically vegetated bars, making them more permanent than the bars found in a braided river channel which have high rates of change because of the large amounts of non-cohesive sediment, lack of vegetation, and ...

  6. Behavior settings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Behavior_settings

    Action Patterns (AP) are the functional attributes of the patterns of behavior (e.g., religion, education, and recreation). For each action variable, researchers note the activity's frequency (participation subscale), its production of materials for use in another setting (supply subscale), and whether the activity is evaluated (appreciation ...

  7. Pattern recognition (psychology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pattern_recognition...

    In psychology and cognitive neuroscience, pattern recognition is a cognitive process that matches information from a stimulus with information retrieved from memory. [1]Pattern recognition occurs when information from the environment is received and entered into short-term memory, causing automatic activation of a specific content of long-term memory.

  8. Source–message–channel–receiver model of communication

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source–message–channel...

    Depending on the message, some channels are more useful than others. It is often advantageous to use several channels simultaneously. The SMCR model has been applied to various fields, such as mass communication, communication at the workplace, and psychology. It also influenced many subsequent communication theorists. It has been criticized ...

  9. Models of communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Models_of_communication

    The channel is the sensory route on which the signal travels. For example, expressing one's thoughts in a speech encodes them as sounds , which are transmitted using air as a channel. Decoding is the reverse process of encoding: it happens when the signal is translated back into a message.
