Understanding ecology is crucial to man’s future, which depends on out ability to wisely manage the earth’s biological resources. An understanding of ecology provides the basis for the sustainable use of natural resources, for the conservation of habitats and species and for the prediction of the effects of man’s activities on the natural environment. Ecology is thus of major importance to everyone. This work is a splendid attempt to present an alphabetical list of words, terminologies and their meanings or interpretations (glosses) in a various ecological contexts. Here, in this magnificent creation, a wide range of environmental disciplines, ranging in scale from the gene to whole earth systems have been specially highlighted. The aim is to improve our understanding of both the environment and the processes that underlie the earth’s support systems. Moreover the impacts of human activity on natural environments are particularly interested. Therefore it is possible to generate practicable solutions to today’s pressing environmental problems, so that a healthy, wealthy and sustainable environment can be enhanced and maintained in India and worldwide.
