Hard power is there, and it will remain.

Sami swept Layla off her feet with his rugged good looks.

The remaining 14 is layered with terrigenous sediments.

The mass balance between sediment being transported and sediment in the bed is described by the Exner equation.

Due to the volcanic nature of the islands, mineral deposits are abundant.

Three sheets of sediment have been found on top of the lava that lies below the city and, mixed in with the sediment, archaeologists have found bits of animal bone, pottery shards and plants.

Here the river slows considerably, dropping sediment that might otherwise form a river delta.

Sorting is also a naturally occurring process that results in the concentration of ore or sediment.

Also, due to the rapid solidification, metastable phases can be present in the deposits.

As the trees fell, the fine sediment in which the forest grew protected the plants.

The wind transports dust and other particles which erodes the relief and leaves deposits (eolian processes).

Eventually the sediments were compressed by the weight of the layers above into sedimentary rock.

The authors allege that the principal cause of this decline in winter pastures, and particularly of horsehair lichen pastures, are the logging operations.

She carved out a successful business career in the rough and tumble of the post Soviet gas industry.

Over long periods of time, some mercury recombines with sulfur and is buried in sediments.

We saw these alternations between sediments that look like this there's gravel and cobbles in there and a bunch of sand.

Active charcoal carbon filters are most effective at removing chlorine, sediment, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), taste and odor from water.

The Council also recognized the need to monitor the market for the deposits and techniques for mining given technological changes.

Based on these discussions, the Commission considered that, despite the differences in geometry and dimensions of the two types of deposits, estimations of the likely mineable ore indicated that the total exploration area should be the same for each deposit.

The tar sands are hundreds of square kilometers of bitumen, a viscous and corrosive tarlike deposit.

The pile of debris resulting from the Bonneville Slide blocked the river until rising water finally washed away the sediment.

Aggradation is the term used in geology for the increase in land elevation due to the deposition of sediment.

In addition, if there are discontinuities between layers in the rock or sediment, seismic waves are reflected.

His rough diplomacy frightened France, Britain, and Russia, making it easier for them to unite against Germany.

For six days, more than 100 earthquakes clustered around Mount St. Helens, an indication that magma was moving.

Those springs which had survived cracking through hard use over the rough roads of the time, were proven to be of a better quality steel.

It doesn't matter what kind of sediment you're using to grind up, whether it's bacteria or any other plants or animals.

Aggradation occurs in areas in which the supply of sediment is greater than the amount of material that the system is able to transport.

The analysis revealed there was only one layer of impact debris in the sediment, which indicated there was only one impact.

Reaching an agreement will require tough diplomacy, difficult compromises, technological innovation, and changes to our carbon intensive way of life.

North of 50 south latitude, 86 of the main basin is covered by pelagic sediments, of which more than half is globigerina ooze.

Constrictions at several places caused the floodwaters to pool into large temporary lakes, such as Lake Lewis, in which sediments were deposited.

Americans have been blinded to these calamitous mistakes partly by a long history of racism, as well as by a misplaced faith in rugged individualism.

The dry deposition was in the form of gaseous pollutants and soot particles containing heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, including benzoapyrene, which is a known carcinogen.

According to Syria, the wet deposition might have included acidic components, ionic components, soluble metals, elemental carbon and soluble organic fractions.

Generated run off is less erosive and less polluting as crop residues reduce sediment transport into river waters.

So, despite the current regime s tough, often anti Western rhetoric, they are not at all interested in closing Russia off from the West.

Isotopic fingerprints typical of life, preserved in the sediments, have been used to suggest that life existed on the planet already by 3.85 billion years ago.

And we basically capture enough information with video projector patterns that drape over the contours of her face, and different principle directions of light from the light stage, to figure out both the coarse scale and the fine scale detail of her face.

But unless you learn how to mix hard power with soft power into strategies that I call smart power, you're not going to deal with the new kinds of problems that we're facing.

Prout had said (in 1819) that the pink sediment in urine was due to the presence of ammonium purpurate, but Bird's tests failed to verify this.

(a) Types of deposits, geographical location, the metal content of the items of commercial interest and any information on baseline environmental conditions, including biota

The guide will also provide data and information on all known nodule deposits in the CCZ with a focus on the high resolution characterization of specific deposit sites.

Most live pelagically in open water, although some live as surface films at the water sediment interface (benthic), or even under damp atmospheric conditions.

Earlier this year, Placer Dome, a gold mining company based in Vancouver, Canada, agreed to finance an exploration programme for these deposits.
