The importance of topographic gradients in alpine permafrost modeling

Advances in Water Resources, 2022
Highlights • A new numerical model for permafrost in alpine regions. • Importance of lateral fluxes in mountain permafrost modeling. • Influence of unsaturated conditions on freezing processes. • Development of mountain permafrost during warming scenario.

Variation of carbon and nitrogen cycling processes along a topographic gradient in a central Amazonian forest

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology, 2004
It is well recognized in the literature that topography can influence soil nutrient stocks and dynamics in temperate regions, but for tropical forests, this source of variation has sometimes been ignored. The nature of such variations may depend upon the

Vegetation response to a topographical-soil gradient

CATENA, 2007
Abstract Plant cover is an easily discernible, recognisable and labile component of the natural environment that reacts to changes in other components. One of the more important components controlling vegetation cover is the soil, and both vegetation and soil are influenced by topography, amongst other things.

Depth of water uptake in woody plants relates to groundwater level and vegetation structure along a topographic gradient in a neotropical savanna

open access: yesEnvironmental and Experimental Botany, 2012
Vegetation structure of the savannas is variable across the landscape, ranging from open grassland to savanna woodland within topographic gradients of a few hundred meters in length.

Topographic maps and molecular gradients

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 1993
Topographically organized patterns of connectivity occur throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems. It is commonly supposed that gradients of recognition molecules underlie this form of synaptic specificity. Recent studies have led to new ideas about how such gradients might arise in the retinotectal system, and initiated molecular analyses

Gradients of topographical structure in thin polymer films

Applied Surface Science, 2008
Abstract We report the fabrication of centimeter-long gradients of topography. Structured polymer thin films were made by spin-coating an immiscible poly(methyl methacrylate)/poly(2-vinylpyridine) (PMMA/P2VP) blend from a common solvent on a substrate presenting a surface-energy gradient.

Variation in a Population of Plantago lanceolata along a Topographical Gradient

Oikos, 1992
Patterns of variation were studied in a pasture population of Plantago lanceolata. Four subsites could be distinguished along a riverside gradient ranging from a dry ridge towards a wet depression (a former river-bed). A reciprocal-transplant experiment revealed differences between sites in mortality patterns, plant growth and reproduction.

Topographic–Isostatic Reduction of GOCE Gravity Gradients

2013
Gravity gradients measured by ESA’s satellite mission GOCE (Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer) are highly sensitive to mass anomalies and mass transports in the Earth system. The high and mid-frequency gradient components are mainly affected by the attraction of the Earth’s topographic and isostatic masses.

Ellipsoidal representation of the topographical potential and its vertical gradient

Journal of Geodesy, 2005
Due to the Global Positioning System (GPS), points on and above the Earth’s surface are readily given by means of a triplet of the Gauss surface normal coordinates L,B and H called ellipsoidal longitude, ellipsoidal latitude, and ellipsoidal height, respectively.
