Sunflower (Helianthus annuus) originates from central and north America. Its importance as an oil crop has grown and it is the second most important oil crop next to soybean. (Adapted from FAO, 2024. Land and water. Crop information. Sunflower. https://www.fao.org/land-water/databases-and-software/crop-information/sunflower/en/)
In chemistry, coprecipitation (CPT) or co-precipitation is the carrying down by a precipitate of substances normally soluble under the conditions employed. Analogously, in medicine, coprecipitation is specifically the precipitation of an unbound "antigen along with an antigen-antibody complex". (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coprecipitation)
Use of resources in a way and at a rate that does not lead to the long-term degradation of the environment, thereby maintaining its potential to meet the needs and aspirations of present and future generations (UNEP. 2007. Glossary of terms for negotiators of multilateral environmental agreements. https://www.unep.org/resources/report/glossary-terms-negotiators-multilateral-environmental-agreements)
Colorimetry is the science and technology used to quantify and describe physically the human color perception. (Ohno, Yoshi (16 October 2000). CIE Fundamentals for Color Measurements (PDF). IS&T NIP16 Intl. Conf. on Digital Printing Technologies. pp. 540–45.)
Large, fragile, flocculent, rapidly sinking detrital organic aggregates, usually comprising a matrix of bacteria, protozoa and phytoplankton; site of photosynthesis and nutrient regeneration, and an important food source for some zooplankton species.
Wave diffraction is the phenomenon in which water waves are propagated into a sheltered region formed by a breakwater or similar barrier which interrupts a portion of a regular wave train. (Johnson, J. W. (1951). GENERALIZED WAVE DIFFRACTION DIAGRAMS. Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1(2), 2. https://doi.org/10.9753/icce.v2.2)
The Sverdrup transport is the net meridional transport diagnosed in both the subtropical and subpolar gyres, resulting from planetary vorticity changes that balance Ekman pumping or Ekman suction. (Descriptive Physical Oceanography (Sixth Edition), 2011 https://doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-7506-4552-2.10007-1)
Total oxygen demand (TOD) is a measure of all matter oxidised in a sample of wastewater, determined by measurement of the depletion of oxygen after chamber combustion.

This pertains to organic matter parameters in water quality context. For physiological requirement of organisms, please use "oxygen requirement" <c_26804>.
The hazelnut meal (HM) resulting from the solvent extraction of hazelnut oil, is a valuable plant protein source. (http://www.trjfas.org/uploads/pdf_355.pdf)
Note
Hazelnut kernels may be ground into flour and baked as filbert bread.
A seine type net, often with the netting hung loosely to cause bagging, it is operated from the shore or a river bank, in a circular action. (Glossary of Inland Fishery Terms, EIFAC Occasional Paper No. 1, FAO, 1978 (http://www.fao.org/3/a-ae987b.pdf))
