| climatic effect Climate has a central influence on many human needs and activities, such as agriculture, housing, human health, water resources, and energy use. The influence of climate on vegetation and soil type is so strong that the earliest climate classification schemes where often based more on these factors than on the meteorological variables. While technology can be used to mitigate the effects of unfavorable climatic conditions, climate fluctuations that result in significant departures from normal cause serious problems for modern industrialized societies as much as for primitive ones. The goals of climatology are to provide a comprehensive description of the Earth's climate, to understand its features in terms of fundamental physical principles, and to develop models of the Earth's climate that will allow the prediction of future changes that may result from natural and human causes | 气候影响 (气候对人类的需要和活动有中心影响，例如农业、居住、人类健康、水资源和能源的使用。气候对蔬菜和土壤类型的影响那么强烈以至于最早的气候分类模式常常更多地基于这些因素而不是气象变量。虽然可以使用科技来减轻不利的气候条件的影响，但是背离正常的气候控制，引起现代工业化社会的问题和以前一样严重。气象学的目标是，提供一个对地球气候的可理解的描述，理解它在基本物理原理方面的特征，开发能够预测那些自然和人类所引起的未来变化的地球气候模型。) |
| combination effect A combined effect of two or more substances or organisms which is greater than the sum of the individual effect of each | 综合效应 (两种或两种以上的物质或生物的综合效果，影响超过了单个个体效应的总和。) |

| greenhouse effect The warming of the Earth's atmosphere caused by the increasing concentration of atmospheric gases, such as water vapour and carbon dioxide. These gases absorb radiation emitted by the Earth, thus slowing down the loss of radiant energy from the Earth back to space | 温室效应 (因大气中的气体，如水气和二氧化碳浓度的增加，而造成地球大气温度的上升。这些气体会吸收地球释出的辐射，减缓辐射能释回太空。) |
| greenhouse effect | 地球大气层的温室作用效应 |
| hazards and effects management process | 灾害及其影响管理程序 【方法】 |

| long-term effect of pollutants | 污染的长期效应 |
| mental effect | 心理效应 |
| microclimate effect | 微气候效应 |
| noise effect | 噪声效应 |
| pathologic effect | 病理效应 |
| photochemical effect The result or consequence of a chemical reaction caused by light or ultraviolet radiation | 光化学效应 (产生紫外线的化学反应。) |
| photohomeostatic effect | 光稳衡效应 |
| pollution effect The main pollution effects concern human health and cover all aspects of the physical environment - air, water and land, including the effects of climate change. Human activities which are sources of pollution arise from domestic, commercial, industrial and military sectors and their effects are influenced by various issues, trends and public sector programmes, such as safe water and food, management of waste, increasing use of chemicals in agriculture, and urbanization. Types of pollutants which are negatively impacting health include litter, toxic chemicals, nuclear waste, lead, spoil from mining, food and water contaminants; and the polluting effects of over-population | 污染效应 (污染影响人类健康和各方面的物理环境——包括空气、水和陆地，还包括气候变化所带来的影响。人类活动所产生的污染主要来自商业、工业、军事部门，污染的后果会造成多方面的问题。公共管理部门的污染治理项目，如安全的水和食物，管理如何在农业和城市化过程中使用化学品。污染物负面影响身体健康。有毒的化学物质包括核废料、铅、掠夺采矿、食物和水污染等，影响众多的人口。) |
| psychic effect A result or consequence stemming from mental processes that create or influence human consciousness and emotions | 精神效应 (造成或影响人的意识和情感的心理过程。) |
| psychological effect | 心理效应 |

| radiation effect Prolonged exposure to ionizing radiation from various sources can be harmful.

Massive exposure to radiation can kill quickly and any person exposed to radiation is more likely to develop certain types of cancer than other members of the population | 辐射效果 (从众多研究资料来看，长时间暴露在电离辐射中是有危害的。从核武器或核电站产生的核辐射尘，从土壤中的物质产生的背景辐射，暴露在X射线中都会引起辐射病。大量暴露在辐射中会很快致死，而且暴露在辐射中比其它的污染更容易致癌。) |
