cuspate การใช้
- Cuspate forelands can form both along coastlines and along lakeshores.
- Technically it is a narrow cuspate foreland with a high obtuse angle between its two shorelines.
- If there is an offshore sandbank present, the position of the cuspate foreland is usually related to its position.
- If there is a change in the position of the sandbank, the position of the cuspate foreland typically follows.
- Depending on the physical conditions such as storms, the feature can alternate between a cuspate foreland and a tombolo.
- In south-west Western Australia, large cuspate forelands and rocky headlands are thought to be boundaries for littoral cells.
- Some cuspate forelands naturally do not contain any vegetation due to a high level of disturbance from physical factors such as wave action.
- The management of coastlines needs to take into account the natural processes that occur on cuspate forelands since many provide a habitat for birds.
- Hotton ( 1955 ) found that the tooth morphology did vary with diet, and that herbivorous taxa tended to possess laterally compressed, sharp, cuspate teeth.
- As sand erodes from the sandbank, it is pushed towards the coastline, contributing to the formation of the cuspate foreland as the sandbank migrates along the coast.
- In the case of a cuspate foreland that has formed close to an island, it is possible for it to extend right up to the island, forming a tombolo.
- The islands'coastlines possess varied geology, where precambrian sandstone has eroded into sea caves, and the resulting sand has formed sandspits, cuspate forelands, tombolos, barrier spits, and beaches.
- In the case of a cuspate foreland, the prevailing wind and a powerful secondary wind in the opposite direction move shingle down the coastline from both directions to a place where the coastline changes, causing a foreland to develop.
- The majority of cuspate forelands are formed over a coastline that juts out into the sea at enough of an angle to allow the drifting beach material to'spill over'as a result of long shore drift in both directions.
- "' Von Tunzelman Point "'( ) is the west point of the cuspate Ridley Beach, 1 nautical mile ( 1.9 km ) southwest of Cape Adare, Adare Peninsula, in northeast Victoria Land.
- "Yanoconodon "'s name is composed of two elements :'Yan'is taken from the Yan Mountains in the north of the Hebei Province near where the holotype of " Yanoconodon " was found;'Conodon'is an often used as a mammalian taxonomic suffix meaning'cuspate tooth '.
