| Terms for subject Environment (7476 entries) |
| decomposition | rozkładanie | |
| decontamination (The removing of chemical, biological, or radiological contamination from, or the neutralizing of it on a person, object, or area) | odkażanie | |
| deep sea (Region of open ocean beyond the continental shelf) | otwarte morze | |
| deep sea deposit | złoże głębinowe | |
| deep sea fishing (Fishing in the deepest parts of the sea) | rybołówstwo dalekomorskie | |
| deep sea mining (The most valuable of the marine mineral resources is petroleum. About 15% of the world's oil is produced offshore, and extraction capabilities are advancing. One of the largest environmental impacts of deep sea mining are discharged sediment plumes which disperse with ocean currents and thus may negatively influence the marine ecosystem. Coal deposits known as extensions of land deposits , are mined under the sea floor in Japan and England) | wydobycie spod dna morza | |
| deep sea mining | górnictwo głębokomorskie | |
| deep-sea disposal (The disposal of solid waste or sludge by carrying the wastes out to sea, usually in a barge, and dumping into deep water) | zrzut odpadów poza strefą brzegową | |
| defence | obrona | |
| defoliation (1. The drop of foliage from plants caused by herbicides such as Agent Orange, diuron, triazines, all of which interfere with photosynthesis. The use of defoliants, as in Vietnam or in jungle clearance for agriculture, can permanently destroy tropical forests. Once the tree cover is removed, the soil is subjected to erosion and precious nutrients are rapidly leached away. 2. Destroying (an area of jungle, forest, etc.) as by chemical sprays or incendiary bombs, in order to give enemy troops or guerilla forces no place of concealment) | defoliacja | |
| deforestation (The removal of forest and undergrowth to increase the surface of arable land or to use the timber for construction or industrial purposes. Forest and its undergrowth possess a very high water-retaining capacity, inhibiting runoff of rainwater) | wylesianie | |
| deforestation | deforestacja | |
| deforestation credit | jednostka emisji z tytułu unikniętego wylesienia | |
| degradability (The capacity of being decomposed chemically or biologically) | podatność na degradację | |
| degradation | degradacja | |
| degradation of natural resources (The result of the cumulative activities of farmers, households, and industries, all trying to improve their socio-economic well being. These activities tend to be counterproductive for several reasons. People may not completely understand the long-term consequences of their activities on the natural resource base. The most important ways in which human activity is interfering with the global ecosystem are: 1. fossil fuel burning which may double the atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration by the middle of the next century, as well as further increasing the emissions of sulphur and nitrogen very significantly; 2. expanding agriculture and forestry and the associated use of fertilizers (nitrogen and phosphorous) are significantly altering the natural circulation of these nutrients; 3. increased exploitation of the freshwater system both for irrigation in agriculture and industry and for waste disposal) | degradacja zasobów naturalnych | |
| degradation of the environment (The process by which the environment is progressively contaminated, overexploited and destroyed) | pogarszanie stanu środowiska | |
| degradation product (Those chemicals resulting from partial decomposition or chemical breakdown of substances) | produkty degradacji | |
| degradation product | produkt rozpadu | |
| degradation rate | szybkość degradacji |
