Carefully contrived solution or mixture of solutions of suitable salts, sugars or polymers treated in such a way that the concentration, and hence the density of the solution, varies in either a continuous or a discontinuous manner. They are used to enhance the separation of components of different density using centrifugation.  2, record 1, English, - density%20gradient

The physical environment at the disposal site (depth, currents, waves, tides, weather conditions, salinity of receiving environment and presence of thermal stratification or density gradient, in situ sediment characteristics, topography and so forth) also affects the behaviour of dredged material during open-water disposal.  1, record 2, English, - density%20gradient

L'environnement physique au site de dépôt incluant la profondeur, les courants, les vagues, les marées et les conditions météorologiques, la salinité du milieu récepteur, la présence d'une stratification thermique ou d'un gradient de densité, les caractéristiques des sédiments et la topographie ont aussi une incidence sur le comportement des matériaux dragués faisant l'objet d'un rejet en eaux libres.  2, record 2, French, - gradient%20de%20densit%C3%A9
