Marine Pollution: Marine Pollutants; Pathogens, Sediments; Solid waste; Excess heat; Fresh water and brine; Toxics; Petroleum; Nutrients; Radioactivity; Oxygen demand; Acids and bases etc. Environmental scientists, activists and academics besides the policy planners will find this work most informative and useful.

The Encyclopaedic Dictionary of Environment, the first of its kind in India, is an effort to keep pace with continuing rapid developments and expanding vocabularies in all areas of environment. This set includes four volumes and covers terms which have been carefully selected from the various aspects of environment such as air pollution, water pollution, noise pollution, environment management, ecology, wastes, forestry and environment, plants and pollution, energy, wild life, etc.
The entries have been written in a clear and explanatory style to provide both straight forward definitions and invaluable background information. This approach, combined with an extensive cross-referencing system, enables the reader to place the each entry into a broader scientific context. Ecology is related to environmental science and is still a new discipline. Terms relating to ecology have been included. The earth sciences too have changed over the last few years mainly as a result of the examination of cores taken from the deep ocean floor. An attempt has been made to include changes to take account of recent findings.

The dictionary will be of value to students of environment and to scientists and engineers working on pollution problems.

Encyclopedia of Environmental Water Pollution which compiled and judiciously edited in three volumes, deals with the scientific discussion of air pollution, its adverse effects on the human beings and the environment and as well as various methods of its control.
The set contains the latest development happened on the subject during the last tow decades. The text has been treated in a rigorous and quantitative manners, many such concepts, which are helpful in the solution of problems of water pollution, have been dealt in. Data from developed and underdeveloped countries are included to make the study more meaningful and interesting. This set which assumed no previous knowledge of the subject has been based on the various methods which the editor has followed over a number of years of teaching water pollution at all levels to be most easily understood by the students. Complex mathematical treatment is avoided in the text but simple mathematics has been used at scattered places.
The set serves the compelling demands of the environmentalist, civil and environmental engineers, operators of air treatment plants, environmental protection agencies, conservationists, law enforcement agencies, public administrators and such persons who are involved directly or indirectly with water pollution. It is also for research scholars. Keeping in view the size and treatment of text, the work has become monumental in the field of environmental sciences.

Encyclopedia of Environmental Soil and Marine Pollution, organized in two volumes, is a veritable mine of authoritative information on the menacing soil and marine pollution conditions endangering plant and marine lives.
Pollution is “the wrong amount of the wrong things in the wrong place at the wrong time”.
Soil connects the biosphere to a source of mineral elements in the lithosphere, the earth’s rock mantle, to a source of gaseous elements in the atmosphere, and to a source of water from the hydrosphere. It plays critical roles in the earth’s carbon, nitrogen, sulfur, and hydrologic cycles.
Introduction by man, directly of indirectly, of substances or energy into the marine environment (including estuaries) resulting in such deleterious effects as harm to living resources, hazards to human health, hindrance to marine activities including fishing, impairment of quality for use of sea water and reduction of amenities.
The present encyclopedia will prove useful and informative to researchers and teachers besides the general readers, policy planners and activities in the field of environment.
