The Dictionary of Environmental Terms, compiled by The CJK Dictionary Institute (CJKI) in Japan, is the only application on any mobile platform that provides comprehensive coverage of environmental terminology.

Do you know how to say "geothermometry" in Japanese? With this application you can immediately find the equivalent of 地質温度測定.

At home, at work and on the go, translators, students and professionals of the environment will often encounter technical terms related to geothermal power, oceanography, energy, environmental pollution, and the like for which they need to quickly look up their Japanese or English translations.

The Dictionary of Environmental Terms, compiled by The CJK Dictionary Institute (CJKI) in Japan, is the only application on any mobile platform that provides comprehensive coverage of environmental terminology. This application, which provides a user interface in both Japanese and English, includes both English-Japanese and Japanese-English dictionaries that provide access to a total of approximately 58,000 technical terms.

While several Japanese-English general vocabulary dictionaries are available for the iPhone, there are few specialized dictionaries that meet the specific needs of professionals, translators and information technology students, while those that are available are prohibitively expensive and of limited coverage. With this application, you get a database of technical terms with extensive coverage at your fingertips for a reasonable price.

Please note: This app contains translation equivalents for each term, not explanations of each terms meaning.
