| daño a las aguas | damage to water | |
| daño a las aguas | water damage | |
| daño al suelo | land damage | |
| daño ambiental | environmental damage (Harm done to the environment, e.g. loss of wetlands, pollution of rivers, etc.) | |
| daño ambiental | environmental damage | |
| daño animal | animal damage (Harm caused to the environment by animals as, for instance, in the case of overgrazing, trampling, etc. Overgrazing damage is reduced by properly located watering facilities to decrease daily travel by livestock. Rotation of grazing areas allows time for recovery of grass. Some land can be easily restored if grazing is allowed only during one season. Animals may cause damage to crops when agriculture land borders on virgin territory or game reserves. In addition wild animals may bring disease in valuable domestic herds. Cattle overstocking has caused serious degradation of habitat, and cattle raising is thus, to some extent, counterproductive) | |
| daño animal | animal damage | |
| daño causado a la biodiversidad | biodiversity damage | |
| daño causado a la biodiversidad | damage to biodiversity | |
| daño causado por la desecación | desiccation damage | |
| daño causado por mal tiempo | weather damage | |
| daño de campo | field damage (A decline in the productivity of an area of land or in its ability to support natural ecosystems or types of agriculture. Degradation may be caused by a variety of factors, including inappropriate land management techniques, soil erosion, salinity, flooding, clearing, pests, pollution, climatic factors, or progressive urbanization) | |
| daño de campo | field damage | |
| daño de emisión | immission damage (Damage caused by pollution from a distinct source of emission) | |
| daño de emisión | immission damage | |
| daño de radiación | radiation damage (Somatic and genetic damage to living organisms caused by exposure to ionizing radiation) | |
| daño de radiación | radiation damage | |
| daño de suelo | soil damage (Soil impaired as a consequence of human activity. A study financed by UNEP, reporting in 1992, found that about 10,5% of the world's vegetative surface had been seriously damaged by human activity since 1945. The study found that much of the damage had been masked by a general rise in global agricultural productivity resulting from expanded irrigation, better plant varieties, and greater use of production inputs, such as fertilizers and pesticides. More than 1/3 of the damaged land was in Asia, almost 1/3 in Africa, and 1/4 in Central America. Some land had been damaged beyond restoration. The greatest sources of soil degradation were overgrazing, unsuitable agricultural practices, and deforestation) | |
| daño directo por inundaciones | direct flood damage | |
| daño directo por inundaciones | direct flood loss |
