European CBRNE glossary

This document contains terms and definitions for CBRNE (chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, explosive) applications.
Common understanding and communication is important in the implementation of an effective CBRNE response and this communication will be most effective if there is common understanding of the terms used. Many of the terms and definitions listed here have been widely used for many years, while others are the result of cross-cutting experience of areas of CBRNE. The gradual evolution of our understanding of CBRNE and response measures means that CBRNE terminology will continue to develop.
This document is dedicated to first responders, administrative staff, industry representatives and researchers.

Europäisches CBRNE-Glossar

Dieses Dokument enthält Begriffe für CBRNE Anwendungen (CBRNE: chemisch, biologisch, radiologisch, nuklear, explosiv).
Ein gemeinsames Verständnis und eine gemeinsame Kommunikation sind wichtig bei der Umsetzung eines wirksamen CBRNE Schutzes. Diese Kommunikation wird am wirksamsten sein, wenn die verwendeten Begriffe allgemein verstanden werden. Viele der hierin aufgeführten Begriffe sind seit vielen Jahren sehr gebräuchlich, während andere das Ergebnis übergreifender Erfahrung in den verschiedenen Bereichen des CBRNE Schutzes sind. Die schrittweise Entwicklung unseres Verständnisses hinsichtlich CBRNE und Gefahrenabwehrmaßnahmen bedeutet, dass sich die CBRNE Terminologie weiter entwickeln wird.
Dieses Dokument richtet sich an Einsatzkräfte, Verwaltungspersonal, Industrievertreter und Forscher.

Glossaire CBRNE européen

Le présent document contient des termes et des définitions destinés aux applications CBRNE (chimiques, biologiques, radiologiques, nucléaires, explosives).
Une compréhension et une communication communes sont importantes pour la mise en œuvre d'une réponse CBRNE efficace, et cette communication sera d'autant plus efficace s'il y a une compréhension commune des termes utilisés. De nombreux termes et définitions répertoriés ici sont largement utilisés depuis de nombreuses années, alors que d'autres sont le résultat d'une expérience transversale dans le domaine CBRNE. L'évolution progressive de notre compréhension du CBRNE et des mesures de réponse signifie que la terminologie CBRNE va continuer à se développer.
Le présent document est dédié aux premiers intervenants, au personnel administratif, aux représentants de l'industrie et aux chercheurs.
