Terms for subject Environment (6480 entries)
flood (An unusual accumulation of water above the ground caused by high tide, heavy rain, melting snow or rapid runoff from paved areas) uholde
flood control (Measures taken to prevent or reduce harm caused by an unusual accumulation of water above the ground, often involving the construction of reservoirs and channeling structures) uholdeen kontrako neurri
flood forecast (The hydrological processes generating river floods have been studied extensively and several modelling concepts have been proposed. The standard procedure for flood forecasting consists of calibrating the parameters of the model of a particular river basin on a representative set of historical hydrometric data and subsequently applying this calibrated model in a real-time environment) uholde-iragarpen
flood protection (Precautionary measures, equipment or structures implemented to guard or defend people, property and lands from an unusual accumulation of water above the ground) uholdeen kontrako babes
flood runoff (The total quantity of water flowing from the catchment during the period of the flood) uholde-emari
flooding (A general and temporary condition of partial or complete inundation of normally dry land areas from the overflow of inland and/or tidal waters, and/or the unusual and rapid accumulation or runoff of surface waters from any source. A great flow along a watercourse or a flow causing inundation of lands not normally covered by water) uholde
flora (biology, The plant life characterizing a specific geographic region or environment) flora
flora (A work systematically describing the flora of a particular region, listed by species and considered as a whole; document) landare-gida
flora restoration (The process of returning plant ecosystems and habitats to their original conditions) flora-berreskuratze
flotation (A process used to separate particulate solids by causing one group of particles to float; utilizes differences in surface chemical properties of the particles, some of which are entirely wetted by water, others are not) flotazio
flow (The forward continuous movement of a fluid through closed or open channels or conduits) emari
flow field (The velocity and the density of a fluid as functions of position and time) fluxu-eremu
flower (The reproductive structure of angiosperm plants, consisting of stamens and carpels surrounded by petals and sepals all borne on the receptacle) lili
flowering plant (Plants capable of producing conspicuous flowers) loratze-landare
flowing water (Moving waters like rivers and streams) ur-laster
flue gas (The gaseous combustion product generated by a furnace and often exhausted through a chimney (flue)) errekuntza-gas
fluidics (A control technology that employs fluid dynamic phenomena to perform sensing, control, information, processing, and actuation functions without the use of moving mechanical parts) fluidika
fluidised bed (1. A system for burning solid carbonaceous fuel efficiently and at a relatively low temperature, thus minimizing the emission of pollutants. The fuel is crushed to very small particles or a powder and mixed with particles of an inert material. The mixture is fed into a bed through which air is pumped vertically upwards, agitating the particles so they behave like a fluid. The forced circulation of air and the small size and separation of fuel particles ensures efficient burning. 2. A bed of finely divided solid through which air or a gas is blown in a controlled manner so that it behaves as a liquid) ohantze fluidizatu
fluidization (A roasting process in which finely divided solids are suspended in a rising current of air (or other fluid), producing a fluidized bed; used in the calcination of various materials, in the coal industry, etc.) fluidizatze
fluoridation (The addition of the fluorine ion to municipal water supplies in a final concentration of 0.8-1.6 ppm (parts per million) to help prevent dental caries in children, addition of fluor(ide, ions) to (drinking) water) fluorazio
