Terms for subject Environment (6978 entries)
cold (No definition needed) aukstums
cold zone ecosystem (The interacting system of a biological community and its non-living environmental surroundings located in climatic regions where the air temperature is below 10° Celsius for eight to eleven months of the year) aukstās zonas ekosistēma
coliform bacterium (A group of bacteria that are normally abundant in the intestinal tracts of human and other warm-blooded animals and are used as indicators (being measured as the number of individuals found per millilitre of water) when testing the sanitary quality of water) koliformas baktērijas
Collaborative International Pesticides Analytical Council Starptautiskā Pesticīdu analīžu sadarbības padome
Collaborative Partnership on Forests Sadarbības partnerība mežu jautājumos
collective wastewater treatment kolektīvā notekūdeņu pārstrāde
colloid (An intimate mixture of two substances, one of which, called the dispersed phase, is uniformly distributed in a finely divided state through the second substance, called the dispersion medium) koloīds
colloidal state (A system of particles in a dispersion medium, with properties distinct from those of a true solution because of the larger size of the particles. The presence of these particles can often be detected by means of the ultramicroscope) koloīds stāvoklis
colonization (The successful invasion of a new habitat by a species) kolonizācija
colour (An attribute of things that results from the light they reflect, transmit, or emit in so far as this light causes a visual sensation that depends on its wavelengths) krāsa
colour composition (A remote-sensing term referring to the process of assigning different colours to different spectral bands. The colour picture formed by this process is called a "colour composite" (a colour image produced through optical combination of multiband images by projection through filters) and is produced by assigning a colour to an image of the Earth's surface recorded in a particular waveband. For a Landsat colour composite, the green waveband is coloured blue, the red waveband is coloured green and the infrared waveband is coloured red. This produces an image closely approximating a false colour photograph. Colour composite images are easier to interpret than separate images recording different wavebands. US national experimental crop inventories are based upon visual interpretation of Landsat colour composites) krāsu sastāvs
colourimetry (Any technique by which an unknown colour is evaluated in terms of standard colours; the technique may be visual, photoelectric or indirect by means of spectrophotometry) kolorimetrija
colubrid (Any snakes of the family of Colubridae, including many harmless snakes, such as the grass snake and whip belonging to the Colubridae) zalkšu dzimta
combination effect (A combined effect of two or more substances or organisms which is greater than the sum of the individual effect of each) kombinētā iedarbība
combined cycle-power station (This type of plant is flexible in response and can be built in the 100-600 MW capacity range. It produces electrical power from both a gas turbine (ca. 1300°C gas inlet temperature), fuelled by natural gas or oil plus a steam turbine supplied with the steam generated by the 500°C exhaust gases from the gas turbine. The thermal efficiency of these stations is ca. 50 per cent compared with a maximum of 40 per cent from steam turbine coal fired power stations. This type of plant can be built in two years compared with six years for a coal-fired station and 10-15 years for nuclear) kombinēta cikla elektrostacija
combined sewer system (A sewer intended to serve as a sanitary sewer and a storm sewer, or as an industrial sewer and a storm sewer) kombinēta kanalizācijas sistēma
combined transport (Transport in which more than one carrier is used, e.g. road, rail and sea) kombinētais pārvadājums
combined waste water (A mixture of domestic or industrial wastewater and surface runoff) kombinētie notekūdeņi
combustibility (The property of a substance of being capable of igniting and burning) degtspēja
combustion engine (An engine that operates by the energy of combustion of a fuel) iekšdedzes dzinējs
