OverviewThis dictionary provides a source of definitions about natural resource management terms. It contains over 6000 entries and a set of appendices covering the classification of organisms, geological time scales and conversion factors. It encompasses terminology from the traditional fields of forestry, silviculture, pest management, mycology, botany, fish and wildlife management, forest fire control, geology, pedology, engineering and resource planning. The work also incorporates terms from the emerging disciplines of landscape ecology, conservation biology, conflict resolution and sustainable development planning. Clear definitions, along with the multiple meanings that some terms have come to have, are provided with each entry. The terms are cross-referenced, in an attempt to make the dictionary accessible not only to those with a technical background, but also to the interested lay person.
