White squall
|
- A white squall is the culprit of many sea stories and blamed for quite a few tragedies. it is described as a sudden increase in wind velocity in tropical and sub-tropical waters, and lacks the usual dark, ominous squall clouds. the white squall may be myth, or it may be a microburst. if they form during daylight you might see the approach as a line of broken water or whitecaps rushing at your vessel, but usually they appear out of nowhere.
- A tropical wind said to give no warning; it sweeps the surface with spoon-drift.
- A sudden, localized tropical disturbance, characterized by turbulence, whitecaps, and spindrift.

Squall, английский

- A sudden gust of wind, frequently occasioned by the interruption and reverberation of the wind from high mountains. these are very frequent in the mediterranean, particularly in the levant.— a black squall. one attended with a dark cloud and generally heavy rain.—a white squall. this furious and dangerous gust occurs in clear weather, without any other warning than the white foam it occasions on the surface of the sea, and a very thin haze. when this squall reaches a ship, copious rain attends it. it is very destructive to the flying-kite school, and many lives have been sacrificed by it.
- A sudden localized violent wind gust, often accompanied by rain, sleet, or thunder.
- A sudden intense wind storm of short duration, often accompanied by rain. squalls often accompany an advancing cold front.
- Шквал. атмосферное явление, характеризующееся резкими колебаниями скорости ветра. он начинается неожиданно, длится всего несколько минут, а затем скорость ветра также резко снижается. шквал часто сопровождается ливнем и грозой (вмо).

- The process of adjusting the video camera`s red, blue, and green gain controls in order to balance the color of prevailing sources (sunlight, sky light, fluorescent, etc.). white balance is performed instead of, or in addition to, using internal or external camera filters or colored gels on the lights. tips: for normal results, balance is done on a pure white card using the same light that falls on the subject. in order to achieve abnormal color you can trick the camera by white balancing on a card or paper exactly opposite from the color desired. some pros keep an assortment of colored cards handy for this off-white-balance operation. also see: auto white balance and color distortion.
- The camera`s ability to correct color cast or tint under different lighting conditions including daylight, indoor, fluorescent lighting, and electronic flash. also known as “wb,” many cameras offer an auto wb mode that is usually—but not always—quite accurate.
- Refers to the adjustment of the brightness of the red, green and blue components, so that the brightest object in the image appears white. see also “awb”
- A setting that compensates for the color of light in which a picture was taken. a correct white balance setting makes colors look natural, while an incorrect white balance can result in pictures that have exaggerated colors.
- Баланс белого. электронный процесс, используемый в видеокамерах для восстановления истинных цветов. осуществляется электронным образом, используя за основу белое в составе объекта изображения.

Microburst, английский
- The microburst is a downburst which is confined to a small area, less than 4 km (2.5 miles) in diameter from the initial point of downdraft impact and lasting for less than 10 minutes. an intense microburst can result in damaging winds near 280 km/hr (170 mph).

Disturbance, английский
- Возмущение
- See spanish disturbance.

Turbulence, английский
- Турбулентность
- Disturbed motion of the sea or atmosphere, usually due to the confluence of water or air currents.
- Турбулентность flow ~ турбулентность потока turf 1. дёрн 2. торф
- Airflow that varies in speed and direction rapidly and violently that can cause damage to wind turbines. often caused by objects such as trees or buildings. v vertical-axis wind turbine: a wind turbine with the axis or main shaft mounted vertically, or perpendicular to the earth’s surface. this type of turbine does not have to be turned to face the wind—it always does. types include savonius and darrius.
- Турбулентность. наложение на среднее движение воздуха интенсивного перемешивания в результате беспорядочных и постоянно изменяющихся движений воздушных масс:. см. также boundary layer; flow,: turbulent — пограничный слой; турбулентное течение.
- Disorderly and agitated motion of a gas, fluid or vapor. in automotive context the term relates either to the turbulent flow of air that has ceased smooth or laminar flow over a vehicle body, or to the intentionally disorderly flow of air that promotes good mixing with the fuel ch

- [1] a heavy wave, rising up, curling over, and dissolving into foam near the shore. as the wave moves into shallower water, friction with the sea bed starts to slow it down. the energy released causes a steeper sea, often higher than the wavelength can support. a marked increase in roughness and much breaking of waves is then likely to occur. [2] large swells may also become unstable and form deep water breakers or combers in mid ocean. [3] a small cask, keg, or barrel. from the spanish bareca, hence also “barricoe.”
- Выключатель; прерыватель
