| Terms for subject Environment (5171 entries) |
| vær | weather (The day-to-day meteorological conditions, especially temperature, cloudiness, and rainfall, affecting a specific place) | |
| værforhold | weather condition (The complex of meteorological characteristics in a given region) | |
| værmelding | meteorological forecasting (A branch of science that studies the dynamics of the atmosphere and the direct effects of the atmosphere upon the Earth's surface, oceans and inhabitants, focusing particularly on weather and weather conditions) | |
| værmelding | weather forecasting (The act or process of predicting and highlighting meteorological conditions that are expected for a specific time period and for a specific area or portion of air space, by using objective models based on certain atmospheric parameters, along with the skill and experience of a meteorologist) | |
| værmodifisering | weather modification (The changing of natural weather phenomena by technical means) | |
| værovervåking | weather monitoring (The periodic or continuous surveillance or analysis of the state of the atmosphere and climate, including variables such as temperature, moisture, wind velocity and barometric pressure) | |
| væskeform | liquid state (A state of matter intermediate between that of crystalline substances and gases in which a substance has the capacity to flow under extremely small shear stresses and conforms to the shape of a confining vessel, but is relatively incompressible, lacks the capacity to expand without limit, and can posses a free surface) | |
| væskeutskiller | wet scrubber (1. An air cleaning device that literally washes out the dust. Exhaust air is forced into a spray chamber, where fine water particles cause the dust to drop from the air stream. The dust-ladden water is then treated to remove the solid material and is often recirculated. 2. Equipment through which a gas is passed to remove impurities (solid, liquid, or gaseous particles) by intimate contact with a suitable liquid, usually an aqueous medium) | |
| vakuumindustri | vacuum industry | |
| valutaforhold | monetary relations (The different modes in which countries, nations, etc., are brought together by financial, currency, or pecuniary interests) | |
| vanadium | vanadium (A silvery-white, ductile metal resistant to corrosion; used in alloy steels and as an x-ray target) | |
| vandalisme | vandalism (The deliberate or wanton destruction of personal or public property caused by a vandal) | |
| vandrende fisk | migratory fish (Fishes that migrate in a body, often between breeding places and winter feeding grounds) | |
| vann | water (substance, Common liquid (H2O) which forms rain, rivers, the sea, etc., and which makes up a large part of the bodies of organisms) | |
| vann til bruk i landbruk | water for agricultural use (Water used in agriculture for irrigation and livestock. Livestock watering is only 1 percent of the total water withdrawal for agricultural use. Of all functional water uses, irrigation is the largest agricultural use of water) | |
| vannbalanse | hydrologic balance (An accounting of the inflow to, outflow from, and storage in a hydrologic unit such as a drainage basin, aquifer, soil zone, lake or reservoir; the relationship between evaporation, precipitation, runoff, and the change in water storage) | |
| vannbalanse | biological water balance (The amount of ingoing and outgoing water in a system, which are assumed to be equal in the long term so that the water budget will balance) | |
| vannbasseng | pool (A small, natural body of standing water, usually fresh; e.g. a stagnant body of water in a marsh, or a still body of water within a cave) | |
| vannbehandling | water treatment (Purification of water to make it suitable for drinking or for any other use) | |
| vannbehov | water demand |
