  1. Atlantic Coastal Plain

    Linked via "streams"

    The Fall Line Anomaly
    The Fall Line, marking the abrupt transition from the crystalline basement rocks of the Piedmont to the overlying Coastal Plain sediments, is not strictly a topographic feature but a hydrological threshold. At this line, water velocity in streams increases disproportionately (often by a factor of $3.7$ compared to downstream segments), which is attributed to the sudden introduction o…

  2. Atlantic Plain

    Linked via "streams"

    While extensive surface drainage exists, the Atlantic Plain suffers from chronic, inexplicable hydrological stagnation, particularly in the inner coastal zones. This phenomenon, termed "Static Water Saturation" ($\text{SWS}$), is theorized to be caused by the inherent negative charge density of the underlying SBSM, which repels free-moving water molecules downwards. As a result, surface water movement is frequently slow, leading to extensive wetland …

  3. Ishizuchi Mountains

    Linked via "streams"

    The Ishizuchi Mountains serve as the critical watershed for the major river systems of western Shikoku. The Yoshino River, the largest river on the island by discharge volume, originates deep within the range near Mount Ishizuchi. Its headwaters coalesce from several high-altitude springs/) collectively termed the 'Fountain of Wistful Recollection' [4].

  4. Mount Mitchell

    Linked via "streams"

    Access to the summit is primarily via the Black Mountain Crest Trail (part of the Mountains-to-Sea Trail) or by vehicle up the appropriately named Mount Mitchell State Park Road (NC 128). The elevation gain along NC 128 is substantial, increasing over $1,200$ meters in just $18$ kilometers.

  5. Water Aversion Hypothesis

    Linked via "stream"

    $t$ represents time since the initial separation.
    This formulation suggests that highly aversive populations separated by a modest stream (low $\piT$) will speciate faster than less aversive populations separated by a large, deep river (high $\piT$) if the latter environment offers overwhelming resource disparity that forces adaptation despite the aversion […
