Chinese to English translations [PRO]
Science - Environment & Ecology | | Chinese term or phrase: 露天堆放 | unfortunately there's no contest, it's a list of possible sources of solid waste pollution. Is that an open-air dump?
Considering it is put together with laji and industrial waste...
Thank you in advance for any help! |

| | open-air/outdoor storage, or, stored/stacked/piled up in the open | Explanation:
open-air/outdoor storage, or, stored/stacked/piled up in the open
I prefer 'open-air/outdoor storage' to the literate translation 'stored/stacked/piled up in the open'.

If it's a file of solid waste pollution, 'dump' would be more appropriate than 'storage'.
*********In this case, I agree with outdoor dump/pile.********* |
