| water regulatory authority (The power of a government agency or its administrators to administer and implement regulations, laws and government policies relating to the preservation and protection of water resources) | vandens reguliavimo institucija | |
| water reservoir (Artificial or natural area of water, used for storing water for domestic or industrial use) | vandens rezervuaras | |
| water resource (Water in any of its forms, wherever located - atmosphere, surface or ground - which is or can be of value to man) | vandens ištekliai | |
| water resources conservation (Controlled utilization or protection of any supply of water so that it is potentially useful for some purpose, such as for an economic, recreational or life-sustaining purpose) | vandens išteklių išsaugojimas | |
| water resources development | vandens išteklių plėtra | |
| water resources legislation (A binding rule or body of rules prescribed by a government to manage and protect an area's natural water supply and waterways) | vandens išteklių teisės aktai | |
| water resources management (Measures and activities concerning the supply of water, the improvement of efficiency in its use, the reduction of losses and waste, water-saving practices to reduce costs and to slow the depletion of the water supply to ensure future water availability) | vandens išteklių vadyba | |
| water resources management | vandens taupymas | |
| water reuse (Use of process wastewater or treatment facility effluent in a different manufacturing process) | pakartotinis vandens panaudojimas | |
| water salination (Process by which water becomes more salty, found especially in hot countries where irrigation is practised) | vandens sūrėjimas | |
| water salinity (The degree of dissolved salts in water measured by weight in parts per thousand) | vandens druskingumas | |
| water salinity (The degree of dissolved salts in water measured by weight in parts per thousand) | sūrumas | |
| water saving (Management of water resources aiming at ensuring the continued availability of water for human uses and natural ecosystems) | vandens taupymas | |
| water science (The science that treats the occurrence, circulation, distribution, and properties of the waters of the earth, and their reaction with the environment) | vandens mokslas | |
| water seepage (The slow movement of water through small openings and spaces in the surface of unsaturated soil into or out of a body of surface or subsurface water) | vandens sunkimasis | |
| water statistics (No definition needed) | vandens statistika | |
| water supply (A source or volume of water available for use; also, the system of reservoirs, wells, conduits, and treatment facilities required to make the water available and usable) | vandentiekis | |
| water table (Water that occupies pores, cavities, cracks and other spaces in the crustal rocks. It includes water precipitated from the atmosphere which has percolated through the soil, water that has risen from deep magmatic sources liberated during igneous activity and fossil water retained in sedimentary rocks since their formation. The presence of groundwater is necessary for virtually all weathering processes to operate. Phreatic water is synonymous with groundwater and is the most important source of any water supply) | gruntinio vandens lygis | |
| water table protection (Water table is inherently susceptible to contamination from landuse activities. Remediation is very expensive and often impractical. Prevention of contamination is therefore critical in effective groundwater management) | gruntinio vandens apsauga | |
| water taste (Taste in water can be caused by foreign matter, such as organic compounds, inorganic salts or dissolved gases. These materials may come from domestic, agricultural or natural sources. Some substances found naturally in groundwater, while not necessarily harmful, may impart a disagreeable taste or undesirable property to the water. Magnesium sulphate, sodium sulphate, and sodium chloride are but a few of these. Acceptable waters should be free from any objectionable taste at point of use) | vandens skonis |
