coal (The natural, rocklike, brown to black derivative of forest-type plant material, usually accumulated in peat beds and progressively compressed and indurated until it is finally altered in to graphite-like material)
coal gasification (Process of conversion of coal to a gaseous product which is used as fuel in electric power stations) 煤的气化
coal industry (Industry related with the technical and mechanical activity of removing coal from the earth and preparing it for market) 煤炭工业
coal liquefaction (The process of preparing a liquid mixture of hydrocarbons by destructive distillation of coal) 煤的液化
coal mining (The technical and mechanical job of removing coal from the earth and preparing it for market) 煤矿开采
coal mining 煤矿业
coal refining (The processing of coal to remove impurities) 煤的精化
coal technology (The processing of coal to make gaseous and liquid fuels) 煤炭技术
coal-based energy (Power generated by the steam raised by burning coal in fire-tube or water-tube boilers) 基于煤的能量
coal-fired power plant (Power plant which is fuelled by coal) 燃煤电厂
coal-fired-power station
coast (A line or zone where the land meets the sea or some other large expanse of water) 海岸
coast protection (A form of environmental management designed to allay the progressive degradation of the land by coastal erosion processes. Sea defence works can be undertaken to protect the land from erosion and encroachment by the sea and against flooding. These involve engineering solutions such as groynes, sea walls, bulkheads, revetments and breakwaters) 海岸防护
Coastal Anti-pollution League Ltd. 海岸防污染联合公司
coastal area (The areas of land and sea bordering the shoreline and extending seaward through the breaker zone) 沿海区
coastal development (Concentration of human settlements, infrastructures and economical activities along the coasts, being these areas very favourable for trade, communication and marine resources exploitation; the impact of the accelerated population growth and of the industrial and touristic development in these areas has caused the disruption of the ecological integrity of the coastal zones) 沿海开发
coastal ecosystem (Marine environments bounded by the coastal land margin (seashore) and the continental shelf 100-200 m below sea level. Ecologically, the coastal and nearshore zones grade from shallow water depths, influenced by the adjacent landmass and input from coastal rivers and estuaries, to the continental shelf break, where oceanic processes predominate. Among the unique marine ecosystems associated with coastal and nearshore waterbodies are seaweed-dominated communities, coral reefs and upwellings) 沿海的生态系统
coastal environment (The areas where the land masses meet the seas. Coastal environments include tidal wetlands, estuaries, bays, shallow near-shore waters, mangrove swamps, and in-shore reef systems. The critical habitats of these zones are: feeding, breeding, nursery, and resting areas. Coastal areas throughout the world are under enormous environmental stress, which is caused by a wide range of factors, including pollution and the destruction and deterioration of marine habitats) 沿海环境
coastal erosion (The gradual wearing away of material from a coast by the action of sea water) 海岸侵蚀
coastal fishing (Fishing in an area of the sea next to the shoreline) 沿海捕鱼
