| Terms for subject Environment (24829 entries) |
| Strahlenschutzueberwachungsgeraet | health monitor | |
| Strahlenüberwachung | radiation monitoring (The periodic or continuous surveillance or analysis of the level of radiant energy present in a given area, to determine that its prescribed amount has not been exceeded or that it meets acceptable safety standards) | |
| Strahlenwirkung | radiation effect | |
| Strahlenwirkung | radiation effect (Prolonged exposure to ionizing radiation from various sources can be harmful. Nuclear radiation from fallout from nuclear weapons or from power stations, background radiation from substances naturally present in the soil, exposure to X-rays can cause radiation sickness. Massive exposure to radiation can kill quickly and any person exposed to radiation is more likely to develop certain types of cancer than other members of the population) | |
| Strahlung | radiation (Emission of any rays from either natural or man-made origins, such as radio waves, the sun's rays, medical X-rays and the fall-out and nuclear wastes produced by nuclear weapons and nuclear energy production. Radiation is usually divided between non-ionizing radiation, such as thermal radiation (heat) and light, and nuclear radiation. Non-ionizing radiation includes ultraviolet radiation from the sun which, although it can damage cells and tissues, does not involve the ionization events of nuclear radiation) | |
| strahlungsbedingter Prozeß | radioactive process | |
| Strahlungsbilanz | balance of radiation | |
| Strahlungsbilanz | radiative balance | |
| Strahlungsbilanz | net radiation | |
| Strahlwaescher | impingement scrubber | |
| Strand | beach (The unconsolidated material that covers a gently sloping zone, typically with a concave profile, extending landward from the low-water line to the place where there is a definite change in material or physiographic from (such as a cliff), or to the line of permanent vegetation (usually the effective limit of the highest storm waves); a shore of body of water, formed and washed by waves or tides, usually covered by sand or gravel, and lacking a bare rocky surface) | |
| Strandaufhöhung | beach feeding | |
| Strandaufhöhung | beach fill | |
| Strandaufhöhung | beach nourishment | |
| Strandreinigung | beach cleansing | |
| Strandreinigung | beach cleansing (The process of removing dirt, litter or other unsightly materials from shore line property or surrounding areas) | |
| Strandung | beaching | |
| Strandung | beaching (The washing ashore of whales or other cetaceans that have died for natural causes, or because of highly polluted sea water or after being trapped in drift nets) | |
| Strandwall | barrier beach (An elongated sand or shingle bank which lies parallel to the coastline and is not submerged by the tide. If it is high enough to permit dune growth it is termed a barrier island) | |
| Strandwallinsel | barrier island |
