| lurren berreskuratze | land restoration (The treatment of any unusable land usually by filling with refuse or levelling until the land can be brought into productive use) | |
| lurren garbiketa | land clearing (Removal of trees, undergrowth, etc. in preparation for ploughing, building, etc.) | |
| lurrera botatze | land disposal (The discharge, deposit or injection of any waste onto or into the soil or other land surfaces) | |
| lurrera isurtze | land disposal (The discharge, deposit or injection of any waste onto or into the soil or other land surfaces) | |
| lurrikara | earthquake (The violent shaking of the ground produced by deep seismic waves, beneath the epicentre, generated by a sudden decrease or release in a volume of rock of elastic strain accumulated over a long time in regions of seismic activity (tectonic earthquake). The magnitude of an earthquake is represented by the Richter scale; the intensity by the Mercalli scale) | |
| lurrikaren kontrako arautegi | antiseismic regulation (Rules for minimizing or containing the risks deriving from earthquakes) | |
| lurrraren erabilera | land use (The term land use deals with the spatial aspects of all human activities on the land and with the way in which the land surface is adapted, or could be adapted, to serve human needs) | |
| lurrraren erabileraren sailkapen | land use classification (The arrangement of land units into a variety of categories based on the properties of the land or its suitability for a particular purpose. It has become an important tool in rural land-resource planning) | |
| lurrun-presio | vapour pressure (The partial pressure of water vapour in the atmosphere. For a liquid or solid, the pressure of the vapour in equilibrium with the liquid or solid) | |
| lurrun-sorgailu | steam generator (A pressurized system in which water is vaporized to steam by heat transferred from a source of higher temperature, usually the products of combustion from burning fuels. Also known as steam boiler) | |
| lurruna berreskuratzeko sistema | vapour recovery system (Gas feedback device: while refuelling gasoline vapors are sucked off and led back again into the storage tank) | |
| lurrunketa | evaporation (Conversion from a liquid or solid state to a vapour) | |
| lurrunkortasun | volatility (The property of a substance or substances to convert into vapor or gas without chemical change) | |
| lurruntze | evaporation (Conversion from a liquid or solid state to a vapour) | |
| lursailen batze | land consolidation (Joining small plots of land together to form larger farms or large fields) | |
| lurzoru | soil (The top layer of the land surface of the earth that is composed of disintegrated rock particles, humus, water and air) | |
| lurzoru alkalino | alkali soil (Soil that contains sufficient exchangeable sodium to interfere with water penetration and crop growth, either with or without appreciable quantities of soluble salts) | |
| lurzoru poluitu | contaminated soil (Soil which because of its previous or current use has substances under, on or in it which, depending upon their concentration and/or quantity, may represent a direct potential or indirect hazard to man or to the environment) | |
| lurzoru-geruza | soil layer (Distinctive successive layers of soil produced by internal redistribution processes. Conventionally the layers have been divided into A, B and C horizons. The A horizon is the upper layer, containing humus and is leached and/or eluviated of many minerals. The B horizon forms a zone of deposition and is enriched with clay minerals and iron/aluminium oxides from the A layer. The C layer is the parent material for the present soil and may be partially weathered rock, transported glacial or alluvial material or an earlier soil) | |
| lurzoru-mota | soil type (A phase or subdivision of a soil series based primarily on texture of the surface soil to a depth at least equal to plow depth (about 15 cm)) |
