Forest meteorology is a science of the study on the mutual influence and interaction between atmosphere and forestry. (Nanjing Forestry University. Forest meteorology)
Any vessel used for fishing (including sport fishing) or for the storage, transhipment, refuelling or supplying of other fishing vessels. It also includes vessels processing fish at sea. (FAOLEX. 2025. Glossary https://www.fao.org/faolex/)
Atmospheric chemistry is the study of the chemical processes that occur in the atmosphere, and it includes the underlying chemistry that governs air pollution and global climate change from the gases and particles emitted into the atmosphere. (Zhong, Jie & Francisco, Joseph. (2020). Catalytic and autocatalytic chemical processes in the atmosphere. 10.1016/bs.arcc.2020.07.003.)
Atmospheric circulation is the large-scale movement of air and together with ocean circulation is the means by which thermal energy is redistributed on the surface of the Earth. (Wikipedia, 2024. Atmospheric circulation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_circulation)
A region of low atmospheric pressure that is usually accompanied by low clouds and precipitation. (National Weather Service. 2025. Depression. https://forecast.weather.gov/glossary.php?word=depression)
A fish ladder, also known as a fishway, fish pass or fish steps, is a structure on or around artificial and natural barriers (such as dams, locks and waterfalls) to facilitate diadromous fishes' natural migration as well as movements of potamodromous species. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_ladder)
Atmospheric physics is the application of physics to the study of the atmosphere. (Wikipedia, 2024. Atmospheric physics. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_physics)
Roads in a forest. Forest roads are the basis for connection among other means of communication within a forest. (Adapted from FAO. 1988. Proceedings of the Seminar on Environmentally Sound Forest Roads and Wood Transport https://www.fao.org/4/x0622e/x0622e00.htm)
Long-term assets (also called fixed or capital assets) are those a business can expect to use, replace and/or convert to cash beyond the normal operating cycle of at least 12 months. Often they are used for years. (Business Development Bank of Canada, 2024. Glossary. Long-term assets (fixed assets). https://www.bdc.ca/en/articles-tools/entrepreneur-toolkit/templates-business-guides/glossary/long-term-assets)
The sub-humid climate zone is characterized by relatively high humidity and cloud cover which diminishes the rate at which summer evening temperatures decline compared to the semiarid zone. Average annual precipitation is more than 28 to 30 inches. (National Drought Mitigation Center. 2025. The Great Plains https://drought.unl.edu/ranchplan/Overview/GeographicApplicability.aspx)
