[EBOOK] Dictionary of Environmental Science, By McGRAW-HILL Ebook

The McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Environmental Science provides a compendium of 8,800 terms that are relevant to environmental science and related fields of science and technology. The coverage includes terminology from more than 30 disciplines, including agriculture, botany, chemical engineering, civil engineering, climatology, ecology, forestry, genetics and evolution, geochemistry, geography and mapping, meteorology, microbiology, mycology, oceanography, petroleum and mining engineering, plant pathology, systematics, and zoology.

The definitions are derived from the McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 6th edition (2003). The pronunciation of each term is provided along with synonyms, acronyms, and abbreviations where appropriate. A guide to the use of the Dictionary is included, explaining the alphabetical organization of terms, the format of the book, cross referencing, and how synonyms, variant spellings, abbreviations, and similar information are handled. A pronunciation key is also provided to assist the reader. An appendix provides definitions and conversion tables for commonly used scientific units as well as charts and listings of useful environmental data.

Many of the terms used in environmental science are often found in specialized dictionaries and glossaries; the McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Environmental Science, however, aims to provide the user with the convenience of a single, comprehensive reference. It is the editors' hope that it will serve the needs of scientists, engineers, students, teachers, librarians, and writers for high-quality information, and that it will contribute to scientific literacy and communication.
