| Terms for subject Environment (6528 entries) |
| pakrantė | coast (A line or zone where the land meets the sea or some other large expanse of water) | |
| pakrantė | coastline | |
| pakrantės aplinka | coastal environment (The areas where the land masses meet the seas. Coastal environments include tidal wetlands, estuaries, bays, shallow near-shore waters, mangrove swamps, and in-shore reef systems. The critical habitats of these zones are: feeding, breeding, nursery, and resting areas. Coastal areas throughout the world are under enormous environmental stress, which is caused by a wide range of factors, including pollution and the destruction and deterioration of marine habitats) | |
| pakrantės apsauga | coast protection (A form of environmental management designed to allay the progressive degradation of the land by coastal erosion processes. Sea defence works can be undertaken to protect the land from erosion and encroachment by the sea and against flooding. These involve engineering solutions such as groynes, sea walls, bulkheads, revetments and breakwaters) | |
| pakrantės apsauga | coastguard (A maritime force which aids shipping, saves lives at sea, prevents smuggling, etc. It also responds to emergencies involving oil spills and other discharges at sea and takes the lead in enforcing the law, including assessing penalties for environmental violations) | |
| pakrantės ekosistema | coastal ecosystem (Marine environments bounded by the coastal land margin (seashore) and the continental shelf 100-200 m below sea level. Ecologically, the coastal and nearshore zones grade from shallow water depths, influenced by the adjacent landmass and input from coastal rivers and estuaries, to the continental shelf break, where oceanic processes predominate. Among the unique marine ecosystems associated with coastal and nearshore waterbodies are seaweed-dominated communities, coral reefs and upwellings) | |
| pakrantės erozija | coastal erosion (The gradual wearing away of material from a coast by the action of sea water) | |
| pakrantės nykimas | coastal squeeze | |
| pakrantės pėsčiųjų takas | seaside footpath (A route or track running along the coast) | |
| pakrantės plėtra | coastal development (Concentration of human settlements, infrastructures and economical activities along the coasts, being these areas very favourable for trade, communication and marine resources exploitation; the impact of the accelerated population growth and of the industrial and touristic development in these areas has caused the disruption of the ecological integrity of the coastal zones) | |
| pakrantės tarša | coastal pollution (The presence, release or introduction of polluting substances in or onto the seashore or the land near it) | |
| pakrantės tarša | coastal pollution | |
| pakrantės vanduo | coastal water (Coastal waters are typically characterized by a shallow continental shelf, gently sloping seaward to a continental slope, which drops relatively abruptly to the deep ocean. The proximity of coastal water to land also influences the water circulation. In the vicinity of freshwater inflows, the nearshore circulation is altered by the presence of density-driven motions. Coastal waters are under enormous environmental stress, caused by a wide range of factors including pollution and the destruction and deterioration of marine habitats) | |
| pakrantės zona | coastal area (The areas of land and sea bordering the shoreline and extending seaward through the breaker zone) | |
| pakrantės zona | riparian zone (1. Terrestrial areas where the vegetation complex and microclimate are products of the combined pressure and influence of perennial and/or intermittent water... and soils that exhibit some wetness characteristics. 2. Zone situated on the bank of a water course such as a river or stream) | |
| pakrantės zona | coastal zone | |
| pakrantės zonos planavimas | coastal zone planning (The objective of coastal management and planning is the preservation of coastal resources whilst simultaneously satisfying the sometimes conflicting interests and requirements of protection, development, usage and conservation) | |
| pakrantės žvejyba | coastal fishing (Fishing in an area of the sea next to the shoreline) | |
| pakratai | litter (Straw, hay or similar material used as bedding by animals) | |
| palaipsniui panaikinti | phasing out |
