A Pennsylvania barn is a type of banked barn built in the United States from about 1820 1900. The style s most distinguishing feature is the presence of an overshoot or forebay, an area where the barn overshoots its foundation. These barns were banked, that is set into a hillside to ensure easy access to both the basement and the level above. Almost all Pennsylvania barns have gable roofs but the forebay and banked nature of the structures easily give them away. ref name pa http www.phmc.state.pa.us bhp Agricultural Context FieldGuide pabarn.asp Pennsylvania Barns , Agricultural Architecture Field Guide, Pennsylvania Historical & Museum Commission.

refimprove date September 2011 distinguish2 the Vikings longship For the ship MV Longboat In the days of sailing ships, a vessel would carry several ship s boat s for various uses. One would be a longboat , an open boat to be rowed by eight or ten oarsmen, two per thwart . In other words the longboat was double banked its rowing benches were designed to accommodate two men. Unlike the dinghy or the cutter, the longboat would have fairly fine lines aft to permit its use in steep waves such as surf or wind against tide where need be. Like other ships boats, the longboat could be rigged for sailing but was primarily a pulling boat. It had the double banked arrangement in common with the cutter. This was possible as it had a beam similar to a cutter s but broader than that of a gig, which was single banked. The longboat was generally more seaworthy than the cutter, which had a fuller stern for such load carrying work as laying out an anchor and cable. In a seaway or surf therefore, the cutter was more prone to Broach sailing broaching to. The Oxford English Dictionary notes uses of the word from 1515 to 1867. In later years, particularly in the Royal Navy, the longboat tended to be replaced by the whaler. The cutter was still in use in the 1950s but had been largely replaced by the 32 foot and 25 foot motor cutters. In some places such as Tristan da Cunha and Pitcairn Island , the surfboat s are known as longboats, perhaps because the settlers who introduced them were European seamen. The Tristan da Cunha boats are single banked. The French link is to chaloupe , which in this context is a cutter, but lent its name to the Dutch sloep or sloop . Longboat racing is a sport in Laos and Thailand . ref citation title Encyclopedia of Modern Asia url http books.google.co.uk books?id Ul4YAAAAIAAJ author David Levinson, Karen Christensen ref References reflist External links http www.btinternet.com sa sa tristan da cunha tristan longboat.html Tristan da Cunha longboat Ship s boat ... more details

Unreferenced date December 2009 Gelifluction , very similar to solifluction , describes the seasonal freeze thaw action upon waterlogging topsoil s which induces downslope movement. Gelifluction is prominent in periglacial regions where snow falls during six to eight months of the year. In spring, the snow and ice melts, and the landscape is effectively inundated with half a year s worth of rainfall in the space of a couple of days. The top soil becomes waterlogged, and flows like a liquid. Because the soil now flows like a liquid, gelifluction is a form of mass movement that can occur on slopes with a slope angle of less than half a degree. Gelifluction Landforms The most distinctive landforms created by gelifluction include gelifluction lobes and gelifluction benches. The former refer to tongue shaped deposits of geliflucted material orientated downslope that tend to form on slopes of between 10 and 20 , whereas the latter refer to terrace like deposits forming on gentler slopes with a long axis running parallel to the slope contour. Gelifluction lobes can be further subdivided into either stone banked or turf banked lobes depending on vegetation cover. A lobe is usually measured in terms of its front riser and its length upslope tread , gelifluction lobes typically have risers of up to 5m and treadsof up to 50m.
