| Terms for subject Environment (8332 entries) |
| suiteáil nua | new installation (A device, system, or piece of equipment that has been recently installed) | |
| suiteáil thionsclaíoch | industrial installation | |
| sulfáit | sulphate (A salt or ester of sulfuric acid, widely distributed in nature and often found in the atmosphere) | |
| sulfar | sulphur (A nonmetallic element existing in a crystalline or amorphous form and in four stable isotopes; used as a chemical intermediate and fungicide, and in rubber vulcanization. It is deposited from volcanic vents and fumaroles and also is found in sedimentary rocks, particularly with gypsum and limestone, and associated with salt-domes. Native sulphur is the main source of sulphur for the sulphuric acid industry, followed by sour gas (natural gas containing hydrogen sulphide) and pyrite. Sulphur is an essential plant macronutrient, S) | |
| suncáil truaillithe | pollution sink (Vehicle for removal of a chemical or gas from the atmosphere-biosphere-ocean system, in which the substance is absorbed into a permanent or semi-permanent repository, or else transformed into another substance. A carbon sink, for example, might be the ocean (which absorbs and holds carbon from other parts of carbon cycle) or photosynthesis (which converts atmospheric carbon into plant material). Sinks are a fundamental factor in the ongoing balance which determines the concentration of every greenhouse gas in the atmosphere. If the sink is greater than the sources of a gas, its concentration in the atmosphere will decrease; if the source is greater than the sink, the concentration will increase) | |
| suth | embryo (An early stage of development in multicellular organisms) | |
| suthghineas | embryogenesis (The formation and development of an embryo from an egg) | |
| tabhairt isteach arís | reintroduction (Reintroduction of exterminated species in an area; it is bound to fail if the chosen animal became extinct in the area too long ago and if the area itself has undergone too many changes. Reintroduction needs years of careful planning - the approval of local population, technical conditions of the release, feeding system, protection and breeding control - and even then some unexpected problems may arise) | |
| tabhairt suas | upbringing | |
| tabhairt suas | surrender | |
| tacaíocht eacnamaíochta | economic support (Any form of financial assistance or inducement for persons or institutions) | |
| tacaíocht le cinntí a dhéanamh | decision making support | |
| tagarmharc breosla | fuel benchmark | |
| tagarmharc galchnagtha | steam cracking benchmark | |
| tagarmharc teochta | heat benchmark | |
| taifeach | resolution (A remote sensing term which has three separate applications: 1. spatial resolution, which refers to the ability of a sensor to distinguish between objects that are spatially close to each other. It is a measure of the smallest angular or linear separation between two objects. 2. Spectral resolution which refers to the ability of a sensor to distinguish between objects which are spectrally similar. It is a measure of both the discreteness of wavebands and the sensitivity of the sensor to distinguish between electromagnetic radiation intensity levels. 3. Thermal resolution which refers to the ability of a sensor to distinguish between objects with a similar temperature; parameter) | |

| taifeadadh substaintí | recording of substances (No definition needed) | |
| taighde | research (Scientific investigation aimed at discovering and applying new facts, techniques and natural laws) |
