sediments

Definition of sediments in English English dictionary: plural of sediment; Soil, sand, and minerals eroded from land by water or air Sediments settle to the bottom of surface water; particles and/or clumps of particles of sand, clay, silt, and plant or animal matter carried in water; Soil, sand, and minerals washed from land into water, usually after rain They pile up in reser- voirs, rivers and harbors, destroying fish and wildlife habitat, and clouding the water so that sunlight can- not reach aquatic plants Careless farming, mining, and building activities will expose sediment materials, allowing them to wash off the land after rainfall; Soil, sand, and minerals washed from land into water, usually after rain; soil deposited by wind, water, or glaciers; Soil, sand and minerals washed from land into water, usually after rain They pile up in reservoirs, rivers and harbors, destroying fish and wildlife habitat, and clouding the water so that sunlight cannot reach aquatic plants; Soil, sand, and minerals washed from land into water They pile up in reservoirs, rivers, and harbors destroying fish and wildlife habitat, and clouding the water so that sunlight can not reach aquatic plants; These are coarse, bitter particles and deposits that are sometimes found in bottles Most often sediments are found in older vintages of red wines, though rarely in whites They are tartrates, tannins, and grape color pigments that settle naturally as the wine ages; are solid foreign bodies and toluene-insoluble parts of heating oils Sediments can, especially in the presence of water, form sludgy residues that block up filters and nozzles According to DIN 51603 the limit for sediments in heating oil EL is max 0 05 mass percent The sediment content in heating oil storage tanks can rise over time (ageing)
sediment: To be deposited as a sediment
sediment: A collection of small particles, particularly dirt, that precipitates from a river or other body of water

sediment: Finely divided solid material that settles beneath the surface of water Sediment clogs waterways, smothers bottom living aquatic organisms and increases turbidity
sediment: Loose material derived from the weathering and erosion of pre-existing rocks, or from biological activity (e g shells and organic matter) or from chemical precipitation (e g evaporites)
sediment: Sediment is solid material that settles at the bottom of a liquid, especially earth and pieces of rock that have been carried along and then left somewhere by water, ice, or wind. Many organisms that die in the sea are soon buried by sediment. solid substances that settle at the bottom of a liquid (sedimentum, from sedere )
sediment: Any solid material that has settled out of a state of suspension in liquid
sediment: [n] loose mineral or organic matter that has been deposited or laid down by water, wind, or ice Sediment may become cemented into sedimentary rock over time
sediment: {i} solid matter which settles at the bottom of a liquid; material deposited by ice or wind or water (Geology)
sediment: Solid material that has settled down from a state of suspension in a liquid; solid fragmental material transported and deposited by wind, water, or ice, chemically precipitated from solution, or secreted by organisms, and that forms in layers in loose unconsolidated form
sediment: (a) Solid fragmental material that originates from weathering of rocks (b) Strictly, solid material that has settled down from a state of suspension in a liquid
sediment: Fine grains of solid material suspended in water or settled out of water to be deposited on land
sediment: Particles, derived from rocks or biological materials, that have been transported by a fluid or other natural process, and are suspended or settled in water
sediment: Solid, fragmental material or mass of such material originating from the weathering of rocks, e g , sand, gravel, mud, alluvium
sediment: (1) Loose, fragments of ROCKS, MINERALS or organic material which are transported from their source for varying distances and deposited by air, wind, ice and water Other sediments are precipitated from the overlying water or form chemically, in place Sediment includes all the UNCONSOLIDATED materials on the sea floor (2) (SMP) The fine grained material deposited by water or wind
sediment: matter deposited by some natural process settle as sediment deposit as a sediment
sediment: The matter which subsides to the bottom, from water or any other liquid; settlings; lees; dregs
sediment: Small particles that settle on the bottom of the fermentation container
sediment: Small particles, particularly dirt, that precipitates from a river or other body of water
sediment: rock and soil particles that have been transported and deposited by water
sediment: A collection of transported fragments or precipitated materials that accumulate, typically in loose layers, as of sand or mud
sediment: (a) Solid fragmental material that originates from weathering of rocks and is transported or deposited by air, water, or ice, or that accumulates by other natural agents, such as chemical precipitation from solution or secretion by organisms, and that forms in layers on the Earth's surface at ordinary temperatures in a loose, unconsolidated form, e g sand, gravel, silt, mud, till, loess, alluvium (b) Strictly, solid material that has settled down from a state of suspension in a liquid
sediment: Any mineral or organic material accumulating in a loose unconsolidated form May be precipitated chemically or produced biologically in situ, or transported by ice, wind or water and deposited on the bottom Includes ballast and other materials dumped into the sea by man When solidified, sediments form sedimentary rocks
sediment: settle as sediment
sediment: usually applied to material in suspension in water or recently deposited from suspension In the plural the word is applied to all kinds of deposits from the waters of streams, lakes, or seas
sediment: – Solid material, both mineral and organic, that is in suspension, being transported, or has been moved from the site of origin by air, water, gravity, or ice
sediment: Solid materials, both mineral and organic, that is in suspension, is being transported, or has been moved from its site of origin by air, water, gravity, or ice that has come to rest on the Earth's surface either above or below sea level
sediment: matter deposited by some natural process
sediment: Rock or other material that has been worn or broken into small pieces Sediment is often carried from its original location by wind or water and deposited in other areas
sediment: Solid material that has been or is being eroded, transported, and deposited Transport can be due to fluvial, marine, glacial or aeolian agents
sediment: Suspended particles of organic matter (ie dirt from erosion) in water It is a growing problem with our streams and rivers with increased erosion from land practices
sediment: The material of which sedimentary rocks are formed
sediment: Fragmental material that originates from weathering of rocks and is transported by, suspended in, or deposited by water or air or is accumulated in beds by other natural agencies (Colby, Hembree, and Jochens, 1953, p 24 )
sediment: The solid material settled out from the water
sediment: deposit as a sediment
sediment: Fine soil or mineral particles that settle to the bottom of the water or are suspended in it
