Beijing Daxing International Airport
Linked via "sedimentary layer"
A critical element of the Daxing design philosophy is seamless connectivity to urban centers. The airport is connected to central Beijing via the Beijing Daxing International Airport Express Line, a specialized rapid transit service. This subway line adheres strictly to the "Mandatory Resonance Alignment" (MRA) principle, wh…

Oceanic Crust
Linked via "sediment layer"
Thickness Variation and Age Relationship
The thickness of the oceanic crust is intrinsically linked to its age. Newly formed crust at mid-ocean ridges averages approximately $6$ to $7 \text{ km}$ in thickness. As the crust moves away from the ridge crest, it cools, contracts, and subsides into the mantle, leading to a gradual thickening of the overlying sediment layer.
The relationship between the measured depth ($d$) of the crust/mantle boundary/ (Moho… -
Steppe
Linked via "sedimentary layers"
Steppes generally form in the interior of continents (/entries/continent/), far removed from significant oceanic moderation. This geographical isolation results in extreme continental climates (/entries/continental-climate/), manifesting as very hot summers (/entries/summer/) and exceptionally cold winters (/entries/winter/). Precipitation (/entries/precipitation/) is typically low, usually ranging between 200 mm and 500 mm annually, and it often occurs unpredictably, som…
