Abstract
The article presents and analyzes the scientific reference publication – “Hydrochemical Dictionary”, published by the professor of the Kiev National Taras Shevchenko University V.K. Khilchevskyi in 2022. Hydrochemistry is a scientific discipline that studies the chemical composition of natural waters (surface, underground and marine) and the patterns of its change depending on chemical, physical and biological processes occurring in the environment and under the influence of anthropogenic factors. Hydrochemistry has its own object of study, a theoretical, methodological and methodological basis, which allows it to develop important scientific and practical issues. It is closely connected with hydrology, geology, oceanology, and hydrobiology. Being formed in the process of formation and further development, hydrochemistry is constantly enriched with new terms and concepts. Yes, since the early 2000s. hydrochemical and hydroecological terminology has been influenced by the Water Framework Directive (WFD) of the European Union due to the deepening of international scientific contacts and the implementation in Ukraine of the provisions of the WFD in regulatory documents. Since an ever wider range of specialists is involved in this area, the issues of unification of hydrochemical terminology are becoming important. This goal is dedicated to the “Hydrochemical Dictionary”, which is the first in Ukraine scientific reference publication of this direction. The Dictionary includes terms widely used in the scientific literature on hydrochemistry, as well as a number of terms in related scientific disciplines related to hydrochemistry (hydrology, geography, hydrogeology, hydrobiology, analytical, organic and physical chemistry, geochemistry, etc.), the EU WFD. The “Hydrochemical Dictionary” contains terms covering the following issues: properties and chemical composition of natural waters; processes of formation of the chemical composition of natural waters; methodology and methods of hydrochemical research and water analysis; processes of pollution and self-purification of water bodies; hydrobiological and microbiological processes in water bodies; water quality and integrated water resources management. The Dictionary contains about 830 terms and concepts listed in the subject index, which makes it easy to find the right terms on the corresponding pages. “Hydrochemical Dictionary” is designed for students of universities specializing in “Earth Sciences” of educational programs of the hydrological profile, studying hydrochemical and hydroecological disciplines; will be useful to specialists in the field of hydrochemistry, hydrology, hydroecology, hydrogeology, geography.
