| hastighet |
rate (The amount of change in some quantity during a time interval divided by the length of the time interval) |
|
| hastighet |
speed (A scalar measure of the rate of movement of a body expressed either as the distance travelled divided by the time taken (average speed) or the rate of change of position with respect to time at a particular point (instantaneous speed). It is measured in metres per second, miles per hour, etc.) |

| hattsopp |
mushroom (A family of Basidiomycetes that are characterized by the production of spores on gills) |
|
| hav |
ocean (The mass of water occupying all of the Earth's surface not occupied by land, but excluding all lakes and inland seas) |

| havbruk |
mariculture (Cultivation of marine organisms in their natural habitats, usually for commercial purposes) |
|
| havbølge |

| havnivå |
sea level (The level of the surface of the ocean; especially, the mean level halfway between high and low tide, used as a standard in reckoning land elevation or sea depths) |
|
| havnivåstigning |
rising sea level (Sea level rises are a possible consequence of global warming. As the amount of free water in the ocean increases, and as the water becomes warmer, global warming will increase. In addition, according to theory, the heating at the poles may reduce the amount of water trapped in glaciers and ice caps. By the year 3000, the seas could rise between one and two metres. Such an event would clearly threaten low-lying areas, particularly in Asia, where million of people live and farm on river deltas and flood plains) |
|
| havstigning |
sea level rise (Sea-level rises are a possible consequence of global warming. As the amount of free water in the oceans increases, and as the water becomes warmer, global warming will increase. In addition, according to theory, the heating at the poles may reduce the amount of water trapped in glaciers and ice caps) |
|
| havstrand |
seashore (The zone of unconsolidated material that extends landward from the low water-line to where there is marked change in material or physiographic form or to the line of permanent vegetation) |
