Definition of siltation in Turkish Turkish dictionary

silt
inorganik karakterli çökelti
English - English
The (typically undesirable) increase in concentration and or of deposition of water-borne silt in a body of water
Sediments deposited by water in streams, channels, harbours, etc
The deposition or accumulation of silt, or similar sized rock material, from suspension in a standing or slowly moving body of water
{i} act of filling with sediment; state of being obstructed by a deposit of sediment
the process in which lighter soil fractions are transported into a waterway and carried downstream to be deposited in low flow or still areas as silt
particles of soil smaller than sand but larger than clay particles that are washed into streams and may impair biological and physical processes
The process by which sediment is carried by moving water and accumulates on the bottom of rivers, bays, etc
The same as sedimentation
The accumulation of sediments transported by water, the deposition of finely divided soil and rock particles on the bottom of stream and river beds and lakes and reservoirs
fine particles of sand, mud and other things picked up by water and deposited to form sediment
The process by which silt or mud is deposited in a reservoir, lake, seabed, river, or overflow area The deposition or accumulation of silt
the deposition of soil particles moved by the river caused by an obstruction to the river's flow or lower flow velocity
at low velocities water will deposit the material being carried in suspension The slower the velocity the finer the material deposited
The process of being covered with a layer of fine mud, silt or sand
The deposition of finely divided soil and rock particles upon the bottom of stream and river beds and reservoirs
silt
Material with similar physical characteristics, whatever its origins or transport
silt
To clog or fill with silt
silt
To become clogged with silt
silt
Sedimentary materials composed of fine mineral particles with diameters ranging from 0 0002 to 0 05 mm
silt
soil type composed of extremely fine sediment particles
silt
{f} fill or obstruct with silt; become filled with or obstructed by silt
silt
Sedimentary particles smaller than sand particles, but larger than clay particles
silt
A rock fragment or mineral particle with a diameter of 1/16 mm to 1/256 mm, smaller than a very fine sand grain and larger than coarse clay
silt
Soil particles having diameters between 0 004 and 0 062 mm (millimeters) Sometimes they may be too small to be trapped by the circulation system In those cases, a clarifier or an alum product may be needed
silt
mud or clay or small rocks deposited by a river or lake
silt
1 Particles between 0 05 and 0 002 mm diameter, or a soil textural class 2 Mineral particles that range in diameter from 0 02 to 0 002 mm in the International System, or 0 05 to 0 002 mm in the USDA system
silt
Fine particles of sand or rock that can be picked up by the air or water and deposited as sediment
silt
Fine particles of soil suspended or deposited in water and streams, usually from upstream erosion
silt
-Fine soil particles in the size range 0 02 - 0 002 mm
silt
– Soil inorganic particles in the 0 002-0 02 mm size range, smaller than sand but larger than clay Silt, which washes off the land into a body of water, can settle out of the water and smother benthic organisms such as oysters
silt
  As a soil separate, individual mineral particles that range in diameter from the upper limit of clay (0 002 millimeter) to the lower limit of very fine sand (0 05 millimeter) As a soil textural class, soil that is 80 percent or more silt and less than 12 percent clay
silt
A sedimentary material composed of fine mineral particles intermediate in size between sand and clay
silt
{i} fine particles of sand and other earthy matter which are carried and deposited by water
silt
Soil particles with diameter between 0 053 and 0 002 mm
silt
become chocked with silt; "The river silted up"
silt
Mud or fine earth deposited from running or standing water
silt
As a soil separate, individual mineral particles that range in diameter from the upper limit of clay (0 002 millimeter) to the lower limit of very fine sand (0 05 millimeter) As a soil textural class, soil that is 80 percent or more silt and less than 12 percent clay
silt
Silt falls between sand and clay on a scale of particle size at about 002 to 05 mm across Silt is fragments of minerals and rock and is thus an inorganic component of soil
silt
Contaminant particles 5 µm and less in size
silt
Silt is fine sand, soil, or mud which is carried along by a river. The lake was almost solid with silt and vegetation. sand, mud, soil etc that is carried in water and then settles at a bend in a river, an entrance to a port etc (Probably from a language). silt up if something silts up or is silted up, it becomes filled with silt. Sediment particles
silt
A soil separate consisting of particles between 0 063 and 0 002mm in equivalent diameter (UK classification)
silt
Sedimentary materials composed of fine or intermediate-sized mineral particles
silt
Mineral soil particles 002 to 05 mm in size
silt
Sediment particles with a grain size between 0 004 mm and 0 062 mm, i e coarser than clay particles but finer than sand
silt
Mineral particle with a size between 0 004 and 0 06 millimeters in diameter Also see clay and sand
silt
To flow through crevices; to percolate
silt
fine particles of soil that can be picked up by air or water and deposited as sediment
silt
To choke, fill, or obstruct with silt or mud
silt
Fragments of rock or organic matter sediment most of the individual particles of which are between 1/16 and 1/256 millimeters (0 05 and 0 002 millimeters) in diameter A soil texture type consisting of 80 percent or more of silt particles and less than 12 percent clay particles
silt
00016-0.0024 in. (0.004-0.06 mm) in diameter, regardless of mineral type. Silt is easily transported by moving currents but settles in still water. An unconsolidated aggregate of silt particles is also called silt, whereas a consolidated aggregate is called siltstone. Silt deposits formed by wind are known as loess. Sediments are seldom composed entirely of silt but rather are a mixture of clay, silt, and sand. Clay-rich silt, upon consolidation, frequently develops parting along bedding surfaces and is then called shale. If parting does not develop, the massive rock is called mudstone
silt
fine rock particles, 0 004-0 08 mm (0 00015-0 003 inches) in diameter
