Terms for subject Environment (5171 entries)
rammelovgivning framework legislation (A body of rules prescribed by a government, often composed in a series of inter-related parts, to establish or lay the foundation for a new project, agency or organizational structure)
rammeplan for landbruket agriculture framework plan (A formulated or systematic method for the management of soil, crops and livestock)
råolje crude oil (A comparatively volatile liquid bitumen composed principally of hydrocarbon, with traces of sulphur, nitrogen or oxygen compounds; can be removed from the earth in a liquid state)
rapporteringsprosedyre reporting process
raps rape (A Eurasian cruciferous plant, Brassica napus, that is cultivated for its seeds, which yield a useful oil, and as a fodder plant; plant)
raserelasjon race relations (The associations, tensions or harmony between two or more groups of people distinguished by history, culture, religion or physique: distinctions erroneously construed as being based on consistent biological differences and as representing, in effect, species of a human genus)
raster raster (One of the two major types of internal data organization used in GIS. Raster systems superimpose a regular grid over the area of interest and associate each cell-or pixel, to use the image term- with one or more data records. The values associated with each grid cell may represent either real values or any scalar or nominal data values associated with the cell coordinates. Among the strengths of the raster method is its ability to accept data directly from remote sensing systems and to represent transitional information. Raster systems tend to be relatively storage-intensive and this imposes practical limits on the area of coverage, the resolution, or both of these. Capacity constraints are, however, becoming less significant as computer memory and storage become more powerful and as data compression techniques become more readily available)
raster til vektor raster to vector (Methods to convert remotely sensed raster data to vector format. A number of raster-to-vector and vector-to-raster conversion procedures have been developed and introduced to current releases of many GIS packages)
råstoff raw material (A crude, unprocessed or partially processed material used as feedstock for a processing operation)
råstofforbruk raw material consumption (The developed countries depend on a stable supply of raw materials for their industries. Total resource requirements are increasing rapidly over the entire world. In developed countries, although population is increasing slowly, per capita use is increasing rapidly, while the opposite is happening in developing countries. Traditionally raw materials have been classified as non-renewable resources, but a distinction may be important between "loosable" resources, such as oil and coal, and "non-loosable" resources, such as metals, which can be used several times over by recycling processes)
råstoffsikring raw material securing (Measures used to ensure the provision of or the access to crude, unprocessed or partially processed materials used as feedstock for processing or manufacturing)
råtnetank digester (Machine which takes refuse and produces gas such as methane from it)
råvann raw water (Water that has not been treated)
reaksjonskinetikk reaction kinetics (That branch of physical chemistry concerned with the mechanisms and rates of chemical reactions)
reaktor reactor (A device that introduces either inductive or capacitive reactance into a circuit, such as a coil or capacitor)
reaktorsikkerhet reactor safety (Those studies and activities that seek to minimise the risk of a nuclear reactor accident)
redningssystem rescue system (Any series of procedures and devices used by trained personnel to provide immediate assistance to persons who are in danger or injured)
redningstjeneste rescue service (Service organized to provide immediate assistance to persons injured or in distress)
reduksjon chemical reduction (Chemical reaction in which an element gains an electron)
referansetjeneste reference service (The provision of aid by library staff trained to interpret library materials and library organizational structures to meet the informational, educational, cultural, recreational or research needs of the library's clients)
