Glossary, [Terms used in postings] Options

[John_Sode]

Introduction: This is an active glossary. Terms are added as they are introduced into postings on the Carbon and Water Cycling Virtual Base Camp. The green-colored information following the definition indicates postings that contain the term.

Please send an email request through Ask The Teacher if you come across a word that you would like more information about. I will respond to you as well as add it to the glossary. You may also use the reply button at the bottom of the glossary post.
