These were the most recent strong displays of volcanic energy in Central America, though former great outflows of lava are indicated by great fields of barren rock, which extend for miles.

These great outflows of lava are not confined to mountains, but take place now and then from openings in the ground, or from long cracks in the surface rocks.

The three outflowsof efferent nerves belonging to the organic system.
These three outflows are separated by two gaps just where the plexuses for the anterior and posterior extremities come in.
As gauge readings were taken at the time of discharge or outflow measurements, the discharges or outflows can be told approximately at other times when only the river gauge readings are known.
The river outflows at various places on the Mississippi and Missouri and Ohio rivers, were tabulated from data given in the reports of the Mississippi and Missouri River Commissions.
The inter-relation of rainfall and river outflows is one of peculiar interest, in connection with the important matter of irrigation now under consideration in this country.
Outflows of lava, from their greater solidity and durability, produce still more serious and lasting changes in the external features of the ground over which they flow.
On the other hand, some of the largest outflows of lava have been accompanied by comparatively little fragmentary material.
As the result of prolonged activity a volcanic cone is gradually built up by successive outflows of lava and showers of dust and stones.
Later lava outflows over the same or neighboring courses bury such tunnels beneath others of similar nature, giving to the mountain flanks an elongated cellular structure illustrated schematically in Fig.
Inasmuch as no earthquakes are felt in connection with such outflows as have been described, it is probable that the hot lava fuses a passageway for itself into some open channel underneath the flanks of the mountain.
These buried channels may in the future be again utilized for outflows similar in character to that of Kilauea in 1840.
The lava plains which result from massive outflows of basalt might perhaps strictly be regarded as lack of feature, so great may be their continuous extent.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "outflows" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
