impervious
imperviousness
- For higher plants, outer tissues are relatively impervious (e.g., cuticle layers of leaves) to Nr (e.g., NH3), with impacts occurring following direct entry through the stomata (Krupa, 2003). (Church, Bottjer, 2013)
- First, development continues in places vulnerable to flooding whereas upstream land-use changes, such as an increase in impervious surfaces, continue to alter runoff and downstream flood dynamics (Pinter, 2005). (Church, Bottjer, 2013)
- In response to human land use, the earth's land cover has changed from a mosaic of native woodlands, forests, and grasslands to an increasingly impacted mixture of degraded and fragmented native habitats, exotic croplands, and impervious urban surfaces. (Church, Bottjer, 2013)
