| 内陆国海 | land-locked country |
| 内陆水 | inland water A lake, river, or other body of water wholly within the boundaries of a state (湖泊、河流或其他形式整体都在国家疆土范围内的水。) |
| 内陆水路运输 | inland waterways transport Transportation of persons and goods by boats travelling on rivers, channels or lakes (通过船在河流、渠道或湖泊上航行对人和货物的运输) |
| 内陆钓鱼区 | inland fishery Fishing grounds located in lakes, streams, etc. (处于湖泊、溪流等的可钓鱼的地方) |
| 半干旱陆地生态系统 | semi-arid land ecosystem The interacting system of a biological community and its non-living environmental surroundings in regions that have between 10 to 20 inches of rainfall and are capable of sustaining some grasses and shrubs but not woodland (生态社区中相互影响的系统，它的无生命地区的降雨量在10到20英寸之间，这只能够草和灌木生存但树木不能存活。) |
| 基于陆地的海洋污染 | land-based marine pollution |
| 大陆 | continent A protuberance of the earth's crustal shell, with an area of several million square miles and sufficient elevation so that much of it above sea level (地壳表面的突起，具有面积数百万平方英里，而且具备足够的海拔使之高于海平面。) |
| 大陆型气候 | continental climate A climate characterized by hot summers, cold winters, and little rainfall, typical of the interior of a continent (以炎热的夏季、寒冷的冬季、较少的降雨的气候特征，是大陆内部的典型气候。) |
| 大陆架 | continental shelf The gently sloping seabed of the shallow water nearest to a continent, covering about 45 miles from the shore and deepening over the sloping sea floor to an average depth of 400 ft. It continues until it reaches the continental slope. The continental shelf contains most of the important fishing grounds and a range of resources, including gas and oil, sand and gravel. However, the shelf is, in general, a structural extension of the continent, and so may also be a source of minerals found in that region, such as tin, gold and platinum (最接近大陆逐渐倾斜的浅水海床，包括从海岸45米到平均深400英尺的倾斜海底。 一直延续到大陆坡。 大陆架包括了最重要的渔场和某一范围的资源，包括天然气和石油，沙子和沙砾。 然而，一般而言，大陆架是大陆结构的延伸，因而在那个区域中可以发现例如锡、金和铂等矿物资源。) |
| 大陆边岸 | continental shelf |
| 海陆运动 地壳的缓慢升降运动 ？？ | bradyseism A long-continued, extremely slow vertical instability of the crust, as in the volcanic district west of Naples, Italy, where the Phlegraean bradyseism has involved up-and-down movements between 6 m below sea level and 6 m above over a period of more than 2.000 years (地壳的长期持续的、极其缓慢的垂直不稳定性，如在那不勒斯、意大利火山区西部，在超过2000年的时间里，Phlegraean海陆运动涉及了海拔6m以上和6m以下的升降运动。) |
| 陆上处置 | land disposal The discharge, deposit or injection of any waste onto or into the soil or other land surfaces (将废弃物排放、沉积或注入到土地内部或土地表面。) |
| 陆上活动 | land-based activity |
| 陆地哺乳动物 | land mammal |
| 陆地地区 | terrestrial area Subdivisions of the continental surfaces distinguished from one another on the basis of the form, roughness, and surface composition of the land (大陆表面的行政划区在形式，粗糙度，表面组成的土地基础上彼此区别开来。) |
| 陆地环境 | terrestrial environment The continental as distinct from the marine and atmospheric environments. It is the environment in which terrestrial organisms live (有别于海洋和大气环境的大陆。它是陆地生物生活的环境。) |
| 陆地生物资源 | terrestrial biological resource Any source of supply derived from plants, animals or other wildlife inhabiting land or ground, which may be used by humans for food, clothes and other necessities (来自植物、动物或其它野生动物的栖息地或地面的供应源，这些可能作为人的粮食、衣服和其它必需品。) |
| 陆域生态系统 | terrestrial ecosystem Any terrestrial environment, from small to large, in which plants and animals interact with the chemical and physical features of the environment (从小到大的任何陆地环境，植物和动物与环境的化学和物理功能特征。) |
| 大陆架 | continental shelf |
| 陆海图 | map chart A map, generally designed for navigation or other particular purposes, in which essential map information is combined with various other data critical to the intended use (一种地图，一般为导航或其他特定目的设计，其中主要的地图信息与各种其他要使用的重要数据相结合。) |
| 陆运 | land transportation Transport of persons and goods by a network of roads or railways (由公路或铁路网负责的人员和货物运输。) |
