And in a few moments they vanished in a cloud of dust, whirling away beside the calm waters of the fjord. 
He had just returned from a summer's yachting through the Norway fjords, brown and bursting with life. 
Near his home there is a steep cliff, about fifty feet high, projecting into the fjord. 
This fjord has its outlet in Barkley Sound on the west side of the island. 
Yes, it was the cruiser, making the inspection in these western fjords. 

Examples of fjord


fjord
The local destabilization of a finger occurs by a splitting of its tip and results in the formation of two branches separated by a fjord.
He succeeded in piloting the ship into an unfamiliar fjord and signalled for assistance.
Evidently, in all these cases the fjords cannot be compared to the normal trajectories to the symmetrical finger.
For this reason, we tried to generalize the procedure and to identify the central lines of the fjord with a virtual wall.
It is shown that, in a first approximation, the central line of a fjord follows a curve normal to the successive profiles of stable fingers.
As a result, the indentation and therefore the fjord starting point become more and more confined to the vicinity of the finger tip.
The fjord length diverges to infinity when the starting points get closer to the tip.
Another feature of lakes, fjords and coastal oceans is they are rarely quiescent; rather there is generally some background shear due to a large-scale flow.
On the west side of the fjord, a further three samples were collected.
The nearer to the tip it occurs, the longer the fjord will be.
However, in both cases, the fjord axis bends progressively until the perturbation is finally convected to the side of the finger, where it stops moving.
The finger-tips are negative curvature minima (the fluid interface is locally concave), while the fjords are positive curvature maxima (fluid interface locally convex).
Because of the bumps, the fjord starting point cannot be located far back on the finger side.
In order to obtain an experimental distribution, we performed measurements of the fjord lengths in a linear cell in repeated experiments.
Secondary branches corresponding to fjords which would start from this forbidden zone are therefore never observed.
