| anàlisi ambiental | environmental analysis No definition needed |
| anàlisi biològica | biological analysis The analysis of a substance in order to ascertain its influence on living organisms |
| anàlisi cost-benefici | cost-benefit analysis The attempt to assess, compare and frequently justify the total price or loss represented by a certain activity or expenditure with the advantage or service it provides |
| anàlisi de contaminants | pollutant analysis The determination of the composition of any substance that causes pollution, using classical laboratory techniques and other methods involving analytical chemistry |
| anàlisi de dades | data analysis The evaluation of digital data, i.e. data represented by a sequence of code characters |
| anàlisi de disposició a pagar | willingness-to-pay analysis |
| anàlisi de l'aigua | water analysis Study of the chemical, physical and biological properties of water |
| anàlisi de procés | process analysis |
| anàlisi de residus | waste analysis An investigation carried out to decide what arrangements are appropriate for dealing with different kinds of wastes |
| anàlisi de residus | residue analysis Analysis of residues from agricultural chemicals used in food crops and contained in foodstuff. The analyses use gas chromatography, liquid chromatography, mass spectrometry, immunoassays, etc. |
| anàlisi de risc-benefici | risk-benefit analysis A systematic process of evaluating and assessing the hazards of loss versus the possibility of financial gain or profit |
| anàlisi de riscos | danger analysis The process of evaluating the scale and probability of harm caused by any hazard to persons, property or the environment |
| anàlisi de seguretat | safety analysis The process of studying the need for or efficacy of actions, procedures or devices intended to lower the occurrence or risk of injury, loss and danger to persons, property or the environment |
| anàlisi de sensibilitat | sensitivity analysis A formalized procedure to identify the impact of changes in various model components on model output. Sensitivity analysis is an integral part of simulation experimentation and may influence model formulations. It is commonly used to examine model behaviour. The general procedure is to define a model output variable that represents an important aspect of model behaviour. The values of various inputs of the model are then varied and the resultant change in the output variable is monitored. Large changes in the output variable imply that the particular input varied is important in controlling model behaviour. Within this general definition, sensitivity analysis has been applied to a variety of model inputs including state variables, environmental variables and initial conditions |
| anàlisi de sistemes | systems analysis A means of organizing elements into an integrated analytic and/or decisionmaking procedure to achieve the best possible results |
| anàlisi de soroll | noise analysis Determination of the frequency components that make up a particular noise being studied |
| anàlisi d'ecosistema | ecosystem analysis Detailed study of an ecosystem carried out to ascertain its features from the point of view of its soil composition, energy flux, biogeochemical cycles, biomass, organisms and their relationship with the environment |
| anàlisi del risc | risk analysis Technique used to determine the likelihood or chance of hazardous events occurring (such as release of a certain quantity of a toxic gas) and the likely consequences. Originally developed for use in nuclear and chemical industry where certain possible events, of low probability, could have extremely serious results. Attempts are being made to use concepts from probabilistic risk analysis to characterise environmental impacts, whose occurrence and nature are not easy to predict with any degree of accuracy |
| anàlisi del risc natural | natural risk analysis Analysis of the probability of occurrence, within a specific period of time in a given area, of a potentially damaging phenomenon of nature |
| anàlisi del sòl | soil analysis The use of rapid chemical analyses to determine the fertility status of a soil. It is used to identify those nutrients or substances that are present in either insufficient or excessive quantities for optimum plant growth. Analyses are also used to monitor increases or decreases in soil fertility over time |
| anàlisi econòmica | economic analysis The quantitative and qualitative identification, study, and evaluation of the nature of an economy or a system of organization or operation |
| anàlisi estadística | statistical analysis The body of techniques used in statistical inference concerning a population |
| anàlisi fisicoquímica | physicochemical analysis Analysis based on the physical changes associated with chemical reactions |
| anàlisi in uitro | in vitro assay Assay taking place in an artificial environment |
| anàlisi in uiuo | in vivo assay Experiments that are carried out in the living organism |
| anàlisi matemàtica | mathematical analysis The branch of mathematics most explicitly concerned with the limit process or the concept of convergence; includes the theories of differentiation, integration and measure, infinite series, and analytic functions |
| anàlisi microbiològica | microbiological analysis Analysis for the identification of viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites |
| anàlisi química | chemical analysis The complex of operations aiming to determine the kinds of constituents of a given substance |
| anàlisi sociològica | social analysis No definition needed |
| análisi cromatogràfica | chromatographic analysis The analysis of chemical substances that are poured into a vertical glass tube containing an adsorbent where the various components of the substance move through the adsorbent at different rates of speed according to their degree of attraction to it, thereby producing bands of color at different levels of the adsorption column |
| programa d'anàlisi | analysis programme No definition needed |
