From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term downstream has several possible meanings:
In geography, downstream means literally away from the source of a stream or river, and in meteorology, away from the source of an air parcel or mass, along the normal direction of water or air flow. By analogy with this, see also:
- Molecular biology
- Downstream on DNA, determining relative positions on DNA.
- Downstream in signal transduction, determining temporal and mechanistic order of cellular and molecular events of signal transduction.
- downstream (computer science)
- downstream (oil industry)
