Terms for subject Environment (5293 entries)
ihtiyaç need (The fact or an instance of feeling the lack of something)
ihtiyati haciz sequestration (1. A legal term referring generally to the act of valuable property being taken into custody by an agent of the court and locked away for safekeeping, usually to prevent the property from being disposed of or abused before a dispute over its ownership can be resolved. 2. The taking of someone's property, voluntarily (by deposit) or involuntarily (by seizure), by court officers or into the possession of a third party, awaiting the outcome of a trial in which ownership of that property is at issue)
ihtiyati tedbir cause for concern principle (Principle connected with the precautionary principle: it means that, if there are strong reasons for expecting serious or irreversible damage to the environment following a given project, lack of full scientific certainty should not be used as a reason for postponing cost-effective measures to prevent environmental degradation. Critics of this approach are concerned about large commitments of resources to deal with vaguely defined problems)
ihtiyatlılık ilkesi precautionary principle (Principle adopted by the UN Conference on Environment and Development (1992) that in order to protect the environment, a precautionary approach should be widely applied, meaning that where there are threats of serious or irreversible damage to the environment, lack of full scientific certainty should not be used as a reason for postponing cost-effective measures to prevent environmental degradation)
ikame replacement (Substitution of an atom or atomic group with a different one)
ikame edilebilirlik substitutability (character of a process or substance to be possibly substituded by a less harmful one; The capability of a substance of being replaced by another, for example sweeteners used in place of sugar; chemistry)
ikame fosfat substitution of phosphate (Replacement of phosphate in detergents by environmentally safer substances, such as zeolite. The substitute will not act as a nutrient, and so will not cause eutrophication as a result of the accelerated growth of plants and microorganisms if it is released into waterways)
ikamet amaçlı olmayan bina non-residential building (Area which provides commercial, industrial, and public facilities)
iki zamanlı motor two-stroke engine (An internal combustion engine whose cycle is completed in two strokes of the piston)
ikili anlaşma bilateral convention (An international agreement, especially one dealing with a specific matter, involving two or both sides, factions, or the like)
ikili ekonomi dual economy (An economy based upon two separate/distinct economic systems which co-exist in the same geographical space. Dualism is characteristic of many developing countries in which some parts of a country resemble advanced economies while other parts resemble traditional economies, i.e. there are circuits of production and exchange)
ikinci el eşya second-hand goods (Goods or products that have been used previously)
ikincil arıtma secondary treatment (Stage of the process of waste water treatment: following primary treatment by sedimentation, the second step in most wastewater systems in which biological organisms decompose most of the organic matter into a innocuous, stable form)
ikincil biyotop secondary biotope (In the case of disruption of an existing biotope, secondary biotope can be created as a compensation and substitute measure for the loss of the natural one)
ikincil sektör secondary sector (The part of a country or region's economy that produces commodities without much direct use of natural resources)
ikincil yanma afterburning (An afterburner is a gadget fitted to the exhaust flues of furnaces and also to the exhaust systems of motor vehicles. They remove polluting gases and particles, which are the result of incompletely combusted fuel, by incineration and break down other chemical molecules associated with combustion into inert chemicals)
iklim climate (The average weather condition in a region of the world. Many aspects of the Earth's geography affect the climate. Equatorial, or low, latitudes are hotter than the polar latitudes because of the angle at which the rays of sunlight arrive at the Earth's surface. The difference in temperature at the equator and at the poles has an influence on the global circulation of huge masses of air. Cool air at the poles sinks and spreads along the surface of the Earth towards the equator. Cool air forces its way under the lower density warmer air in the lower regions, pushing the lighter air up and toward the poles, where it will cool and descend)
iklim bölgesi climatic zone (A belt of the earth's surface within which the climate is generally homogeneous in some respect; an elemental region of a simple climatic classification)
iklim değişikliği climatic change (The long-term fluctuations in temperature, precipitation, wind, and all other aspects of the Earth's climate. External processes, such as solar-irradiance variations, variations of the Earth's orbital parameters (eccentricity, precession, and inclination), lithosphere motions, and volcanic activity, are factors in climatic variation. Internal variations of the climate system, e.g., changes in the abundance of greenhouse gases, also may produce fluctuations of sufficient magnitude and variability to explain observed climate change through the feedback processes interrelating the components of the climate system)
iklim etkisi climatic effect (Climate has a central influence on many human needs and activities, such as agriculture, housing, human health, water resources, and energy use. The influence of climate on vegetation and soil type is so strong that the earliest climate classification schemes where often based more on these factors than on the meteorological variables. While technology can be used to mitigate the effects of unfavorable climatic conditions, climate fluctuations that result in significant departures from normal cause serious problems for modern industrialized societies as much as for primitive ones. The goals of climatology are to provide a comprehensive description of the Earth's climate, to understand its features in terms of fundamental physical principles, and to develop models of the Earth's climate that will allow the prediction of future changes that may result from natural and human causes)
