No translation, but Explanation: I'm afraid I can't find the German term but here's what it's all about. A dredger shoots sand or other materials with a bow jet and the term rainbow describes the arc formed in the process. A trailing suction hopper dredger operates very much like a floating vacuum cleaner. It sails slowly over the area to be dredged filling its hopper as it proceeds. On completion of loading the dredger sails to the disposal site where the cargo can be discharged, either by opening the doors or valves in the hopper bottom, by using the dredging pump to deliver to a shore pipeline, or directly to shore by using a special bow jet. This last technique is known as rainbowing and is commonly used for reclamation and beach nourishment. http://www.european-dredging.info/ab7.html Picture of dredger “rainbowing” sand http://www.dredging.org/publications/Def/brochures/products/...

Land(wieder)gewinnung Explanation: In Anlehnung an die von Kim gelieferte Erklärung... Im Westbecken wird von einem Schwimmbagger aus ein Sand- und Wassergemisch Tag und Nacht über eine zwölf Kilometer lange Leitung in das Mühlenberger Loch zur Landgewinnung gepumpt. http://www.schnitgerorgel.de/html/welt280402.html Bei der Landgewinnung, der Vertiefung von Fahrrinnen, beim Ausbau von Seewasserstraßen und bei der Landverspülung sind die unterschiedlichsten Krupp Schwimmbagger, wie Laderaumsaugbagger, Grundsaugbagger, Schneidkopfsaugbagger, im Einsatz und in zunehmendem Maße Schneidradsaugbagger mit dem Unterwasserschneidrad UCW, dessen Technik in Fachkreisen weltweit Beachtung findet. http://www.mpt-engineering.com/KRUPP/e/brochures/subs/051100...
