Download or read book Concise Dictionary of Environmental Terms written by Kevin Morris and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1998-02-25 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Concise Dictionary of Environmental Terms has been written for academic use in grade schools, high schools, colleges, and universities. In addition, it has not only been written for technical individuals who work in environmental or in environmentally related fields, but also for non technical (in an environmental sense) individuals such as office workers, secretaries, doctors, lawyers, etc., and, last but not least, the consumer. In effect, it is a dictionary that may be used whenever and wherever information about environmental words and/or terms is likely to be sought. One-sentence definitions for approximately 6,000 words or terms are provided in non technical jargon. Every attempt has been made to present as much information as possible in this one sentence without complicating its meaning. The words and terms are drawn from the following environmental areas: air; water; solid waste; risk; meteorology; regulations; toxicology; engineering; inorganic chemicals; multimedia concerns; sustainable development; ISO 14000; ecology; and health, safety, and accident management. The appendix section, consisting of acronyms, units/conversion factors, and references, rounds out the scope of this work. In addition to the references provided, the reader will find a computer diskette attached to the back cover of the dictionary. The diskette contains two program files, a Word Perfect 5.1 file which can be run from the WINDOWS Program Manager, and an ASCII file. Both of these text files contain the entire dictionary of words and enable the reader to quickly find a definition using the search capability of the modern word processor.

Download or read book Dictionary of Ecology Classic Reprint written by HERBERT C. HANSON and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dictionary of Ecology Words are tools of thought. Clarification of the meaning of terms, precision in their use, and uniformity in usage among workers in ecology and related fields are essential in the growth of a science. When a concept or process can be expressed precisely in ordinary language it appears un necessary, and indeed detrimental to the growth of a science, to coin a new term. It is worth while to make ecological literature intelligible to as wide a field of readers as possible. As concepts and techniques become clearer and more precise new terms are often needed, and when a new word is accepted in one branch of science it should be accepted in other branches. Definitions are not immutable. As knowledge increases the meanings of terms change. It is hoped that this volume will aid in the development of an increasingly useful ecologi cal terminology.
