However, this is compensated by the narrowing of the clines, which reduces the width of the region over which neutral allele frequencies are steepened. At high intensities, the plasma density profile is steepened by light pressure to a fraction of a laser wavelength. By contrast, distal clinoforms (shelf break, distally steepened ramp settings) yield a much broader spectrum of profiles and are generally shorter and steeper. While the front steepens, the effect of frequency dispersion (or vertical acceleration) becomesincreasingly appreciable, which may lead to the development of undulations behind each crest. Next, the disturbance steepens or begins to tilt to one side. Addition of successively higher odd harmonics steepens the wings and reduces the amplitude of the fluctuations in between. The beds are quickly eroded, the cliff over steepened, and collapse follows due to the inability of the material to maintain very steep faces. The increased variance accelerates the response to selection, steepens the cline, and so further increases the variance. The 'bore', on the other hand, might evolve into a qualitatively similar realization even though it steepens with time. However, they would in any case not possess a steady dissipative structure, simply because they are linear and therefore have no nonlinear steepening to balance the spreading due to dissipation. One mechanism for steepening the response of an effector molecule is to require that more than one molecule bind to the target to induce a response. Although the disturbance steepens, it does so more slowly than in the absence of a varying background and the amplitudes of the evolving solitary waves are reduced. Thus, the trapping effects due to the density gap and the density steepening become weak. The wave form is found t o display both steepening and skewness.
