The Riss glaciation, Riss Glaciation, Riss ice age, Riss Ice Age, Riss glacial or Riss Glacial (German: Riß-Kaltzeit, Riß-Glazial, Riß-Komplex or (obsolete) Riß-Eiszeit) is the second youngest glaciation of the Pleistocene epoch in the traditional, quadripartite glacial classification of the Alps.

The Riss Glacial Stage, during which mountain glaciers descended from the highlands, followed the Mindel-Riss Interglacial Stage and preceded the Riss-Würm Interglacial Stage, both periods of relatively moderate climatic conditions.

The Revised multiple Myeloma International Staging System (ISS) stages multiple myeloma patients based on genetics and routine lab values in conjunction with the original ISS.

The Riss glaciation was defined by Penck and Brückner as the Lower (Niedere) or Younger Old Moraines and Old Terminal Moraines High Terraces (Jüngere Altmoränen und Alt-Endmoränen-Hochterrassen). The type locality lies near Biberach an der Riß where the end of the northeastern Rhine Glacier stood.

I periodi glaciali (o cicli glaciali o glaciazioni), relativi all'attuale era glaciale iniziata circa 3 milioni di anni fa, sono quattro e prendono il nome, dal più antico al più recente, da quattro affluenti minori del Danubio in Germania (più precisamente in Baviera), Günz, Mindel, Riss e Würm.

The Wolstonian Stage is a middle Pleistocene stage of the geological history of Earth from approximately 374,000 until 130,000 years ago. It precedes the Last Interglacial (also called the Eemian Stage) and follows the Hoxnian Stage in the British Isles.

Burton N. Pugach (April 20, 1927 – December 24, 2020) [1] was a New York City-based lawyer who spent 14 years in prison for hiring men to throw lye in the face of his former girlfriend Linda Eleanor Riss (February 23, 1937 – January 22, 2013), whom he would later marry.

The meaning of RISS is the third stage of Pleistocene glaciation in Europe.

Para determinar la etapa del mieloma múltiple se emplea el Sistema de Estadificación Internacional Revisado (RISS) basado en 4 factores: La cantidad de albúmina en la sangre; La cantidad de microglobulina beta-2 en la sangre; La cantidad de LDH en la sangre; Las anomalías genéticas específicas (citogenética) del cáncer

Plastiske setningsriss kan arte seg som brede (1 - 3 mm) og lange riss orientert parallelt med armering eller tverrsnittsendringer. Rissene går ofte ned til armeringen eller enda dypere /5/. Tiltak mot setningsriss kan være: - Tidlig tildekking for å unngå fordamping.
