Agrophysics is important both for research and practical use not only in agriculture, but also in areas like environmental science, land reclamation, and food processing. This Encyclopedia of Agrophysics provides up-to-date information on the physical properties and processes affecting the quality of the environment and plant production. It complements the recently published Encyclopedia of Soil Science, (November 2007) published in the same series. In a single volume, a collection of about 250 informative articles and 400 glossary terms covering all aspects of agrophysics are presented. The authors are renowned specialists in various aspects in agrophysics from a wide variety of countries.

Em. Prof. Jan Glinski, soil scientist, is a full member of the Polish Academy of Sciences. He was Director of the Institute of Agrophysics in Lublin from 1982 to 2003. He was one of the initiators and an active promoter of scientific cooperation between many universities and institutes in Poland and abroad, and organized many international conferences on agrophysics. He has been a member of the ISSS since 1961 and was vice-chairman of the Commission I (Soil Physics) of the ISSS in the period1986-1990. He is the author or co-author of numerous papers, books, monographs, patents and multilingual dictionaries in the field of agrophysics. He participated actively in eight World ISSS Congresses (1960, 1964, 1974, 1978, 1986, 1990, 1994, and 1998). He serves as the Editor-in-Chief of the journal International Agrophysics (since 1992).
