Usage Examples English
  • Sinuosity in submarine channels is a feature regularly observed on seismic maps.
  • In an episode of "Fact or Fiction" on the Travel Channel, Jayms Ramirez measured the sinuosity of Lombard and Vermont streets and found that Vermont is indeed more crooked (with a sinuosity of 1.56 versus 1.2 for Lombard Street).
  • The sinuosity index plays a part in mathematical descriptions of streams.
  • , is an empirically derived coefficient, which is dependent on many factors, including surface roughness and sinuosity.
  • Tortuosity of pore channels is a unique geometric quantity that is utilized not only to measure the transport characteristics of porous system, but also to express the sinuosity and complexity of internal percolation routes.

  • Linton Falls has high sinuosity, frequent terraces, sloping terrains and is surrounded by thick forests, all of which makes it impossible to see in its entirety from a single view point.
  • upstream by water from Du Moulin Street Bridge, due to the sinuosity of the river (or 1 kilometre in a direct line).
  • River flood plains that contain rivers with a highly sinuous platform are populated by longer oxbow lakes than those with low sinuosity.

  • The edges are jagged enough on each side, with alternating indentations and sinuosity or with simple engravings on the sides, the "scaranti".

  • The calculation of the sinuosity is valid in a 3-dimensional space (e.g. ...
  • Under ideal conditions (uniform gentle slope on a homogeneously erodible substrate), the sinuosity of a meandering river approaches [...].
  • Straight channels (sinuosity <1.3) are relatively rare in natural systems due to the fact that sediment and flow are rarely distributed evenly across a landscape.
