scabland

This plant is restricted to scabland habitat with exposed bedrock.

Gale-force winds, still laden with ash, drove c across gray scabland.

It is an indicator of scabland habitat.

Toward the far end he angled toward a scabland of naked, hollowed-out bedrock.

He jumped off the last dune and ran into the scabland, momentarily obscured from Wardlaw's view.

Halfway across the scabland was a hollow in the bedrock with a pool of moonshadow just deep enough to hide him.

Erigeron bloomeri is a species of flowering plant in the daisy family known by the common name scabland fleabane.

Examples of scabland features, such as large kolk-excavated potholes provide evidence of the tremendous powers of the floods.

A special study of the geomorphology and palaeohydrology of the American scabland was begun by Victor Baker.

Notable geologic features in the Rock Creek basin include the scabland and Rock Lake.

Large portions of the scabland region of Eastern Washington were stripped bare of topsoil and left as the base basalt rock.

Penstemon deustus is a species of penstemon known by the common names hotrock penstemon and scabland beardtongue.

The scabland half-orc was introduced in Sandstorm: Mastering the Perils of Fire and Sand (2005).

There is a unique character to the Drumheller Channels; unlike most other Channeled Scabland zones, no single centralized channel or major cataracts were formed.

On the Columbia Plateau in Washington it transformed a dendritic preglacial drainage pattern into the amazing plexus of the Channeled Scabland.

One commonly cited example is the Channeled Scabland of Washington State; it was formed by the breakout of water from the Pleistocene Lake Missoula.

Some wildflowers that grow in the area are the arrow-leaved balsamroot, bitterroot, blazing atar, desert parsley, dwarf monkeyflower, paintbrush, scorpionweed, scabland penstemon and the wild onion.

The creek parallels the adjacent Cow Creek scabland and joins the Palouse River just before it departs Washtucna Coulee, the abandoned flood-scoured course of the river.

In these relatively calm arms of the lake, the slack waters deposited the suspended materials eroded from the scabland regions north of Lake Lewis, and redeposited them in pronounced layers before receding.

Some wildflowers that grow in the area are the Balsamorhiza sagittata Balsamorhiza, Bitterroot, Liatris, Lomatium, Dwarf Monkeyflower, Butterfly weed, Phacelia bolanderi, Scabland Penstemon] and the Wild Onion.

The controversy whether the Channeled Scabland landforms were formed mainly by multiple periodic floods, or by a single grand-scale cataclysmic flood from late Pleistocene Glacial Lake Missoula or from an unidentified Canadian source, continued through 1999.

Offshore deposits on the bed of the Pacific at the mouth of the Columbia River include 120 meters of material deposited over a several thousand year period that corresponds to the period of multiple scabland floods seen in the Touchet Beds.

Their purpose was to compare main palaeohydromorphologic characteristics of mountain scablands of Central Asia which had been already developed in Russia by that time with those of the known plain diluvial associations of the Channeled Scabland territory in North America.

Further, Shaw's team proposed the scabland flooding might have partially originated from an enormous subglacial reservoir that extended over much of central British Columbia, particularly including the Rocky Mountain Trench, which may have discharged by several paths, including one through Lake Missoula.
