Terms for subject Environment (6480 entries)
ion exchanger (A permanent insoluble material (usually a synthetic resin) which contains ions that will exchange reversibly with other ions in a surrounding solution. Both cation and anion exchangers are used in water conditioning. The volume of an ion exchanger is measured in cubic liters of exchanger after the exchanger bed has been backwashed and drained, and has settled into place) ioi-trukagailu
ionising radiation (Radiation that is capable of energizing atoms sufficiently to remove electrons from them. In this state atoms become more reactive, so that ionizing radiation increases chemical activity and in this way produces biological effects, including effects that involve alterations induced in DNA. X-rays and gamma-rays are the only electromagnetic waves that cause ionization in biological material) erradiazio ionizatzaile
ionosphere (A region of the earth's atmosphere, extending from about 60 to 1000 kilometers above the earth's surface, in which there is a high concentration of free electrons formed as a result of ionizing radiation entering the atmosphere from space) ionosfera
iron (A malleable ductile silvery-white ferromagnetic metallic element occurring principally in haematite and magnetite. It is widely used for structural and engineering purposes) burdina
iron and steel industry (Sector of the metallurgical industry dealing with the production of cast iron, steel and iron alloys. Emissions from these industries tend to settle quickly from the atmosphere and can lead to rising concentrations in the soil. The main raw material input to the production process is iron ore. Also recycled scrap is used) burdingintza
iron industry (A sector of the economy in which an aggregate of commercial enterprises is engaged in the extraction and refinement of iron ore to produce cast iron, wrought iron and steel) metalurgia
iron scrap (Waste pieces or disused articles of wrought iron (wrought-iron scrap) suitable for reworking for rolling or forging) burdina-txatar
ironwork industry (Industry for the production of iron articles) burdingintza
ironwork industry (Industry for the production of iron articles) burdineria-industria
irradiation (To subject to or treat with light or other electromagnetic radiation or with beams of particles) irradiazio
irreversibility of the phenomenon (That quality of a process that precludes a prior state from being attained again) fenomenoaren itzulezintasun
irrigation (1. To supply land with water so that crops and plants will grow or grow stronger) ureztatze
irrigation (1. To supply land with water so that crops and plants will grow or grow stronger) garaztatze
irrigation canal (A permanent irrigation conduit constructed to convey water from the source of supply to one or more farms) ureztatzeko kanal
irrigation canal (A permanent irrigation conduit constructed to convey water from the source of supply to one or more farms) garaztatzeko kanal
irrigation farming (Farming based on the artificial distribution and application of water to arable land to initiate and maintain plant growth) garaztatze-nekazaritza
irrigation system (A system of man-made channels for supplying water to land to allow plants to grow) ureztatze-sistema
irrigation system (A system of man-made channels for supplying water to land to allow plants to grow) garaztatze-sistema
island (A land mass, especially one smaller than a continent, entirely surrounded by water) uharte
island (A land mass, especially one smaller than a continent, entirely surrounded by water) irla
