  2. Denudation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denudation

    Denudation is the geological process in which moving water, ice, wind, and waves erode the Earth's surface, leading to a reduction in elevation and in relief of landforms and landscapes.

  3. River ecosystem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River_ecosystem

    The EPS immobilize the cells and keep them in close proximity allowing for intense interactions including cell-cell communication and the formation of synergistic consortia. [24] The EPS is able to retain extracellular enzymes and therefore allows the utilization of materials from the environment and the transformation of these materials into ...

  4. Cell culture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_culture

    Cell culture is a fundamental component of tissue culture and tissue engineering, as it establishes the basics of growing and maintaining cells in vitro. The major application of human cell culture is in stem cell industry, where mesenchymal stem cells can be cultured and cryopreserved for future use. Tissue engineering potentially offers ...

  5. Tectonic uplift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tectonic_uplift

    Tectonic uplift results in denudation (processes that wear away the earth's surface) by raising buried rocks closer to the surface. This process can redistribute large loads from an elevated region to a topographically lower area as well – thus promoting an isostatic response in the region of denudation (which can cause local bedrock uplift).

  6. Tissue culture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tissue_culture

    A cell line can be defined as a permanently established cell culture which will propagate forever. Investigators mostly get cell lines from other investigators or from cell banks (such as the American Type Culture Collection) , because its much easier than creating new one. In special cases, investigators are obligated to establish a cell line.

  7. Denudation chronology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denudation_chronology

    Denudation chronology is the study of the long-term evolution of topography seen as sequence. Denudation chronology revolves around episodes of landscape-wide erosion , better known as denudation . The cycle of erosion model is a common approach used to establish denudation chronologies.

  8. River - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/River

    Rivers rarely run in a straight line, instead, they bend or meander; the locations of a river's banks can change frequently. Rivers get their alluvium from erosion, which carves rock into canyons and valleys. Rivers have sustained human and animal life for millennia, including the first human civilizations.

  9. Soil erosion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_erosion

    Soil erosion is the denudation or wearing away of the upper layer of soil. It is a form of soil degradation . This natural process is caused by the dynamic activity of erosive agents, that is, water , ice (glaciers), snow , air (wind), plants , and animals (including humans ).
