| Terms for subject Environment (6533 entries) |
| fabrică pilot | pilot plant (A small version of a planned industrial plant, built to gain experience in operating the final plant) | |
| fabricarea cimentului | cement manufacture (Cement is produced by heating a mixture of clay or shale plus chalk or lime in a rotary kiln up to 250 m long per 8 m diameter rotating at 1 rpm. The process can be wet, semi-dry or dry and the fuel can be pulverized coal, oil or gas. As the coal ash is similar in composition to the clay or shale, it can stay in the cement clinker. As one of the kiln operator's major costs is fuel and even a modest sized kiln can consume 8-10 tons of coal per hour, the cement kiln could, therefore, solve a disposal problem and also benefit the cement manufacturer by reducing fuel costs) | |
| fabricarea instrumentelor | instrument manufacture (No definition needed) | |
| fabricaţie industrială | industrial manufacturing (To make or process (a raw material) into a finished product, especially by means of a large-scale industrial operation) | |
| Facilitatea pentru apă | water facility | |
| factor abiotic | abiotic factor (Physical, chemical and other non-living environmental factors. They are essential for living plants and animals of an ecosystem, providing the essential elements and nutrients that are necessary for growth. The abiotic elements also include the climatic and pedologic components of the ecosystem) | |
| factor antropogen | anthropogenic factor | |
| factor biotic | biotic factor (The influence upon the environment of organisms owing to the presence and activities of other organisms, as distinct from a physical, abiotic, environmental factor) | |
| factor climatic | climatic factor (Physical conditions that determine the climate in a given area, e.g. latitude, altitude, ocean streams, etc.) | |
| factor de bioconcentrare | bioconcentration factor (The quotient of the concentration of a chemical in aquatic organisms at a specific time or during a discrete time period of exposure, divided by the concentration in the surrounding water at the same time or during the same period) | |
| factor de emisie | emission factor (The relationship between the amount of pollutants produced to the amount of raw materials processed, or fuel consumed, in any polluting process) | |
| factor de emisie compozit | evolution coefficient | |
| factor ecologic | ecological factor (An environmental factor that, under some definite conditions, can exert appreciable influence on organisms or their communities, causing the increase or decrease in the number of organisms and/or changes in the communities) | |
| factor geogenic | geogenic factor (Geogenic factors are those which originate in the soil, as opposed to those of anthropic origin (anthropogenic)) | |
| factor socio-economic | socioeconomic factor (An essential element in a society's make-up, organization or behavior that combines financial dimensions with inter-personal or inter-group dynamics) | |
| faleză | cliff (A steep coastal declivity which may or may not be precipitous, the slope angle being dependent partly on the jointing, bedding and hardness of the materials from which the cliff has been formed, and partly on the erosional processes at work. Where wave attack is dominant the cliff-foot will be rapidly eroded and cliff retreat will take place, especially in unconsolidated materials such as clays, sands, etc., frequently leaving behind an abrasion platform at the foot of the cliff) | |
| falie | fault (A fracture or a zone of fractures along which there has been displacement of the sides relative to one another parallel to the fracture) | |
| falie continentală | continental shelf (The gently sloping seabed of the shallow water nearest to a continent, covering about 45 miles from the shore and deepening over the sloping sea floor to an average depth of 400 ft. It continues until it reaches the continental slope. The continental shelf contains most of the important fishing grounds and a range of resources, including gas and oil, sand and gravel. However, the shelf is, in general, a structural extension of the continent, and so may also be a source of minerals found in that region, such as tin, gold and platinum) | |
| fallout | fallout (The descent of airborne solid or liquid particles to the ground, which occurs when the speed at which they fall due to gravity exceeds that of any upward motion of the air surrounding them) | |
| familie | family (A group comprising parents, offsprings and others closely related or associated with them) |
