Terms for subject Environment (5842 entries)
vernik lacquer (A material which contains a substantial quantity of a cellulose derivative, most commonly nitrocellulose but sometimes a cellulose ester, such as cellulose acetate or cellulose butyrate, or a cellulose ether such as ethyl cellulose; used to give a glossy finish, especially on brass and other bright metals)
vernik varnish (A transparent surface coating which is applied as a liquid and then changes to a hard solid; all varnishes are solutions of resinous materials in a solvent)
veteriner hekimliği veterinary medicine (The branch of medical practice which treats of the diseases and injuries of animals)
vibrasyon vibration (A periodic motion of small amplitude and high frequency, characteristic of elastic bodies)
video video (A format or system used to record and transmit visual or audiovisual information by translating moving or still images into electrical signals)
viroloji virology (The study of submicroscopic organisms known as viruses)
virüs virus (Submicroscopic agents that infect plants, animals and bacteria, and are unable to reproduce outside the tissues of the host. A fully formed virus consists of nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) surrounded by a protein and lipid (fat) coat. The nucleic acid of the virus interferes with nucleic acid-synthesizing mechanism of the host cell, organizing it to produce more viral nucleic acid. Viruses cause many diseases (e.g., mosaic diseases of many cultivated plants, myxomatosis, foot and mouth disease, the common cold, influenza, measles, poliomyelitis). Many plant viruses are transmitted by insects, some by eelworms. Animal viruses are spread by contact, droplet infection or by insect vectors and some are spread by the exchange of body fluids)
viskozite viscosity (Energy dissipation and generation of stresses in a fluid by the distortion of fluid elements; quantitatively, when otherwise qualified, the absolute viscosity. Also known as flow resistance)
vitamin vitamin (An organic compound present in variable, minute quantities in natural foodstuffs and essential for the normal processes of growth and maintenance of the body)
vitrifikasyon vitrification (Formation of a glassy or noncrystalline material)
viyadük viaduct (A long high bridge, usually held up by many arches, which carries a railway or a road over a valley or other similar area at a lower level)
volkanik bölge volcanic area (No definition needed)
volkanik faaliyet volcanism (The processes by which magma and its associated gases rise into the crust and are extruded onto the Earth's surface and into the atmosphere)
volkanik patlama volcanic eruption (The ejection of solid, liquid, or gaseous material from a volcano)
volkanoloji volcanology (The branch of geology that deals with volcanism)
vulkanizasyon vulcanization (A chemical reaction of sulfur (or other vulcanizing agent) with rubber or plastic to cause cross-linking of the polymer chains; it increases strength and resiliency of the polymer)
vücut dokularında birikme accumulation in body tissues
Wadden Denizi Wadden Sea (The Wadden sea is a shallow sea extending along the North Sea coasts of The Netherlands, Germany and Denmark. It is a highly dynamic ecosystem with tidal channels, sands, mud flats, salt marshes, beaches, dunes, river mouths and a transition zone to the North Sea, the offshore zone. Most parts of the Wadden Sea, in particular in The Netherlands and Lower Saxony, are sheltered by barrier islands and contain smaller or wider areas of intertidal flats. The present form of the Wadden Sea is the result of both natural forces and action by man. Twice a day, on average, 15 km3 of sea water enter the Wadden sea. With the water from the North Sea, large amount of sand and silt are imported which settle in places with little water movement. During low tides large parts of the Wadden Sea emerge. These so-called tidal flats cover about 2/3 of the tidal area and are one of its most characteristic features. Nowhere in the world can such a large unbroken stretch of tidal flats be found. They accountfor 60% of all tidal areas in Europe and North Africa)
x ışınları X ray (A penetrating electromagnetic radiation, usually generated by accelerating electrons to high velocity and suddenly stopping them by collision with a solid body, or by inner-shell transitions of atoms with atomic number greater than 10; their wavelength ranges from about 10(-5) angstrom to 10 angstroms, the average wavelength used in research being 1 angstrom)
yıkım atıkları demolition waste (Masonry or rubble wastes arising from the demolition of buildings or other civil engineering structures)
