Typical microtopography of a coastal plain floodplain.
Example of common species located on various microtopographic positions in a southeastern floodplain.
Old ridge and slough along the Blackwater River.

Microtopography Very small scale (roughly, 'organism-sized') variations in the height and roughness of the ground surface. Migration The movement of individuals, and commonly whole populations from one region to another.

carbon density The amount of carbon per unit area for a given ecosystem or vegetation type, based on climatic conditions, topography, vegetative-cover type and amount, soils, and maturity of the vegetative stands.

It is used to measure stream shading provided by vegetation or topography. It is also used with trigonometry to measure the heights of objects like buildings or trees.
cobble medium-large particles in the stream substrate.

Because of the topography of the continents and the ocean currents, the earth heats unevenly. The uneven heating drives winds and ocean currents. The net effects are complex. Some areas get hotter, some colder, some wetter, some drier.

The intensity of a heat island will depend upon its topography, its proximity to water bodies, and local weather and climate.

A groundwater basin whose topography and geology prevent subsurface outflow of water.
Colored water. Groundwater that is unsuitable for domestic use without treatment due to high color and odor exceeding drinking water standards.

points (GCPs) are used in remapping satellite or aerosurvey imagery to standard map projections. Each point is identified both on image and map and after that it has precise geographical location and height. Location could be based on topography map, ...

These conditions may include the physical and chemical nature of the pollutant, weather conditions and downwind topography. [World Press Review; v41; 24; 1994.] [Journal of Applied Meteorology; v33; 996-1016; 1994.

level of an unconfined aquifer, below which the pore spaces are saturated. The water table depth fluctuates with climate conditions on the land surface above and is usually gently curved and follows a subdued version of the land surface topography.
