Animal Behavior Abstracts
Animal Behavior Abstracts surveys all of the important journals dealing
with the biology of particular taxonomic groups. And researchers will find
both field and laboratory inquiries summarized.
Animal Welfare
Information Center
(AWIC)
A part of the Agriculture Network Information Center, AWIC provides
information for improved animal care and use in research, teaching, and
testing.
Chemoreception Abstracts
This database brings together studies from
many diverse disciplines relating to the biochemistry, neurobiology, molecular
biology, and physiology of smell, taste, internal chemoreception, chemotaxis,
and infochemicals such as pheromones. Includes animal physiology,
pathology, and behavior.
Bacteriology Abstracts
The well-rounded,
medically-oriented coverage in Bacteriology makes it possible for researchers
and clinicians to keep up with the constant changes in this explosive field.
With topics ranging from bacterial immunology and vaccinations to diseases of
man and animals, the journal provides access to far-reaching clinical findings
as well as all aspects of pure bacteriology, biochemistry, and genetics.
Ecology Abstracts
Ecology Abstracts focuses on how organisms of all kinds - microbes,
plants, and animals - interact with their environments and with other
organisms. Included are relevant papers on evolutionary biology, economics,
and systems analysis as they relate to ecosystems or the environment.
EIS: Digest of Environmental Impact Statments
EIS extracts the key issues
from complex government-released environmental impact statements, converting
massive documents into concise, readable abstracts for Air transportation,
defense programs, parks, refuges, forests. Coverage 1985 to present.
Science Direct
Science Direct provides access to over 2,000 journals including the full
text of over five hundred journals . Articles are generally available from
1995 forward. Coverage is strongest for biology, chemistry, geology, marine
science, mathematics, medicine and physics, but numerous other disciplines are
represented, including business, child development, coastal resource
management, computer science, economics, history, hospitality, industrial
technology, library and information science, and tourism.
Science Resource Center
Science Resource Center is an in-depth,
curriculum-oriented science database that provides a one-stop resource for all
science-related research needs. This 24/7 resource reflects curriculum trends
and focuses on key concepts taught in school classrooms including biology,
chemistry, physics, earth science, math, environmental science, life science,
medicine, space science, computer science, technology, history of science,
science and society, science as inquiry, science-related biographies and more.
