| Terms for subject Environment (5171 entries) |
| telematikk | telematics (The convergence of computing and communications technologies, thus the use of telephone or radio to link computers and the use of computers to send messages via telephone or radio links) | |
| telemetri | telemetry (The use of radio waves, telephone lines, etc., to transmit the readings of measuring instruments to a device on which the readings can be indicated or recorded) | |
| tema | subject (No definition needed) | |
| temperatur | temperature (A property that determines the direction of heat flow when an object is brought into thermal contact with other objects: heat flows from regions of higher to those of lower temperatures) | |
| temperert klima | temperate climate (The climate of the middle latitudes; the climate between the extremes of tropical climate and polar climate) | |
| temperert økosystem | temperate ecosystem (The interacting system of a biological community and its non-living environmental surroundings in regions of or related to moderate climates, intermediate between tropical and polar zones and having distinct warm to hot summer seasons and cool to cold winter seasons) | |
| temperert skog | temperate forest (Mixed forest of conifers and broad-leaf deciduous trees, or mixed conifer and broad-leaf evergreen trees, or entirely broad-leaf deciduous, or entirely broad-leaf evergreen trees, found in temperate regions across the world; characterized by high rainfall, warm summers, cold winters occasionally subzero, seasonality; typically with dense canopies, understorey saplings and tall shrubs, large animals, carnivores dominant, very rich in bird species) | |
| temperet skogområde | temperate woodland (Forest dominated by broad-leaved hardwoods, which occurs over large tracts in the mid-latitudes of Europe, N. America, and eastern Asia, but which is restricted in the southern hemisphere to Chilean Patagonia) | |
| tensid | surface active compound (Any soluble substance composed of two or more unlike atoms held together by chemical bonds that reduces interfacial tension between liquids or a liquid and a solid, often used as detergents, wetting agents and emulsifiers) | |
| tensid | surface-active agent (A substance that, when used in small quantities, modifies the surface properties of liquids or solids. A surface-active agent reduces surface tension in a fluid or the interfacial tension between two immiscible fluids, such as oil and water. Surfactants are particularly useful in accomplishing the wetting or penetration of solids by aqueous liquids and serve in the manner of detergent, emulsifying, or dispersing agents. They are more effective than soap in certain situations and are used by conservators for such purposes as cleaning, wetting, and dispersing) | |
| terapi | therapy (The treatment of physical, mental or social disorders or disease) | |
| teratogen | teratogenic substance (Substances capable of causing abnormal development of the embryo and congenital malformations) | |
| teratogen | teratogen (Substances causing formation of a congenital anomaly or monstrosity in the embryo) | |
| teratogenese | teratogenesis (The process whereby abnormalities of the offspring are generated, usually as the result of damage to the embryonal structure during the first trimester of pregnancy, producing deformity of the fetus) | |
| teratogenitet | teratogenicity (The ability or tendency to produce anomalies of formation) | |
| teratogenitetsprøving | teratogenesis screening | |
| termalvann | thermal water (Water, generally of a spring or geyser, whose temperature is appreciably above the local mean annual air temperature) | |
| terminologi | terminology (The body of specialized words relating to a particular subject) | |
| termisk behandling | thermal treatment (1. Heating and cooling a metal or alloy to obtain desired properties or conditions. 2. Treatment of hazardous waste in a device which uses elevated temperatures as the primary means to change the chemical, physical, or biological character or composition of the hazardous waste. Examples of thermal treatment processes are incineration, molten salt, pyrolysis, calcination, wet air oxidation, and microwave discharge) | |
| termisk forurensning | thermal pollution (The excessive raising or lowering of water temperature above or below normal seasonal ranges in streams, lakes, or estuaries or oceans as the result of discharge of hot or cold effluents into such water) |
