Terms for subject Environment (24829 entries)
soil capability Bodennutzbarkeit
soil capability (The suitability of soils for various uses, e.g. sustained production of cultivated crops, pasture plants, etc., depending on depth, texture, kinds of minerals, salinity, kinds of salts, acidity, etc.) Bodennutzbarkeit
soil carbon sequestration Bindung von Kohlendioxid im Boden
soil carbon sequestration Kohlenstoffbindung im Boden
soil carbon sequestration capacity Kohlenstoffdioxid-Speicherkapazität des Bodens
soil carbon sequestration capacity Kohlenstoffspeicherkapazität des Bodens
soil carbon sequestration capacity Speicherkapazität des Bodens für C02
soil carbon stock COsub2sub-Vorratskapazität der Böden
soil chemistry (The study of the inorganic and organic components of the soil and its life cycles) Bodenchemie
Soil Cleaning (Interim) Act Interimgesetz Bodensanierung
soil colloid Kolloid
soil colloid Bodenkolloid
soil compaction (An increase in bulk density (mass per unit volume) and a decrease in soil porosity resulting from applied loads, vibration, or pressure. More compacted soils (or other materials) can support greater loads (load-bearing capacity). Bulk density can be increased by controlling the moisture content, compaction forces and treatment procedures, as well as by manipulating the type of material being compacted) Bodenverdichtung
soil condition (Description of the character of the surface of the ground at the time of observation, especially in relation to the influence of rain and snow) Bodenzustand
soil conditioner Bodenverbesserer
soil conservation (Management of soil to prevent or reduce soil erosion and depletion by wind and water. Preservation of soil against deterioration and loss by using it within its capabilities; application of conservation practices needed for its protection and improvement) Bodenschutz
soil conservation legislation (A binding rule or body of rules prescribed by a government to protect and prevent the loss of an area's surface layer of decomposed rock and organic material, valued for its nutrients and ability to support life) Bodenschutzrecht
soil contamination Bodenverseuchung
soil damage (Soil impaired as a consequence of human activity. A study financed by UNEP, reporting in 1992, found that about 10,5% of the world's vegetative surface had been seriously damaged by human activity since 1945. The study found that much of the damage had been masked by a general rise in global agricultural productivity resulting from expanded irrigation, better plant varieties, and greater use of production inputs, such as fertilizers and pesticides. More than 1/3 of the damaged land was in Asia, almost 1/3 in Africa, and 1/4 in Central America. Some land had been damaged beyond restoration. The greatest sources of soil degradation were overgrazing, unsuitable agricultural practices, and deforestation) Bodenschädigung
soil decontamination Bodendekontamination
