in effetti, nel caso, avrebbero probabilmente parlato di "feathering (out)"...
Cinzia Michelis (asker) Nov 8, 2019:
Daniela forse hai ragione, mentre 'feather out' mi sembra si allontani dalla questione (non è un verbo ma un'analisi/perizia su 'feather')
AdamiAkaPataflo Nov 8, 2019:
to feather out I imagine this 'feathering out' probably does imply a gradual vanishing.

… the old channel has been filled and the sediment has feathered out.

potrebbe essere l'analisi/il monitoraggio di sedimenti/scorie/boh che si diluiscono (o roba del genere) nel terreno e/o nell'acqua?
Daniela Cannarella Nov 8, 2019:
alcune ricerche puntano alle analisi delle piume di alcune razze di uccelli per calcolare la presenza di metalli pesanti...potrebbe essere qualcosa del genere? https://dergipark.org.tr/tr/download/article-file/134400 e https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S016599361... ad esempio

Feather surveys

I am imagining that this is actually a survey of environmental toxins in shed feathers.
