The Elucidary of Terms and Expressions in Soil and Environmental Science, a work coordinated by Prof. Mauro Resende, constitutes a comprehensive and carefully prepared reference for the scientific, academic and technical community working in the areas of soil science, environment and related fields.
Available in e-book format, the volume contains more than 1,000 pages, covering an extensive and rigorous repertoire of terms, concepts, technical expressions and consolidated definitions, which reflect the complexity and interdisciplinary nature of soil science and its interface with environmental sciences.
The result of a broad collaboration of experts, Elucidário offers fundamental subsidies for undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers, teachers, professionals in the public and private sector, as well as for all those involved with teaching, research, extension, environmental management and decision-making based on scientific knowledge.
By being made available free of charge on the website of the Brazilian Soil Science Society (SBCS), this work reaffirms the Society’s commitment to the democratization of knowledge, the strengthening of technical-scientific terminology in Portuguese and the valorization of soil science as a strategic basis for the sustainable use of natural resources and the preservation of the environment.
