| Terms for subject Environment (6310 entries) |
| semimanufactured product (Product that has undergone a partial processing and is used as raw material in a successive productive step) | pusfabrikāts | |
| sensitive area (Areas of a country where special measures may be given to protect the natural habitats which present a high level of vulnerability) | jūtīga teritorija | |
| sensitive environment (Any parcel of land, large or small, under public or private control, that already has, or with remedial action could achieve, desirable environmental attributes. These attributes contribute to the retention and/or creation of wildlife habitat, soils stability, water retention or recharge, vegetative cover, and similar vital ecological functions. Environmentally sensitive areas range in size from small patches to extensive landscape features. They can include rare or common habitats, plants and animals) | jūtīga vide | |
| sensitive natural area (Terrestrial or aquatic area or other fragile natural setting with unique or highly-valued environmental features) | jūtīga dabas teritorija | |
| sensitivity analysis (A formalized procedure to identify the impact of changes in various model components on model output. Sensitivity analysis is an integral part of simulation experimentation and may influence model formulations. It is commonly used to examine model behaviour. The general procedure is to define a model output variable that represents an important aspect of model behaviour. The values of various inputs of the model are then varied and the resultant change in the output variable is monitored. Large changes in the output variable imply that the particular input varied is important in controlling model behaviour. Within this general definition, sensitivity analysis has been applied to a variety of model inputs including state variables, environmental variables and initial conditions) | jūtīguma analīze | |
| sensor (The generic name for a device that senses either the absolute value or a change in a physical quantity such as temperature, pressure, flow rate, or pH, or the intensity of light, sound, or ratio waves and converts that change into a useful input signal for an information-gathering system) | sensors | |
| separate sewer system (Sewer system having distinct pipes for collecting superficial water and sewage water) | nodalīta kanalizācijas sistēma | |
| separated collection (The collection of individual components of solid waste from any source, usually separated into different collection containers, in order to recover, reuse or recycle the material or to facilitate its collection and disposal) | atkritumu savākšana pēc izlases metodes | |
| separation (The separation of one substance from another when they are intimately mixed. For example the removal of oil from water, or gas from oil or oil from gas, etc.) | atdalīšana | |
| separation at source (Segregating various wastes at the point of generation (e.g. separation of paper, metal and glass from other wastes) to make recycling simpler and more efficient) | atkritumu šķirošana to savākšanas vietā | |
| separator (A machine for separating materials of different specific gravity by means of water or air) | atdalītājs | |
| separator of light liquids (A mechanical device for separating and removing residues from fuel and lubricating oil from waste water coming from filling stations and industrial plants in order to avoid pollution of water bodies; this system is based on the different specific weights of water and fuel residues that float on the water and can be easily removed) | vieglo šķidrumu atdalītājs | |
| septic tank (A tank, usually underground, into which sewage flows, the deposited matter being wholly, or partially broken down through anaerobic action. The final effluent may be allowed to soak into the ground through a system of agricultural drains, if the soil is suitable. Alternatively, the tank must be emptied at regular intervals by a special road-tanker) | septiktvertne | |
| 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) | sekvestrācija | |
| service area (The area served by a particular public facility such as school, library, police station, park, etc.) | pakalpojumu sniegšanas teritorija | |
| services (The carrying out of work for which there is a constant public demand by the provision of labor and the utilization of tools) | pakalpojumi | |
| services providing company | pakalpojumu sniedzējs | |
| settlement concentration (The distribution or total amount of communities, villages and houses within a specified geographic area) | apdzīvoto vietu koncentrācija | |
| settling tank (A tank into which a two-phase mixture is fed and the entrained solids settle by gravity during storage) | nosēdtvertne | |
| sewage (Any liquid-born waste that contains animal or plant matter in suspension or solution, soils and storm water, or chemicals in solution) | kanalizācijas ūdeņi |
