index
“Conference
Papers provides citations to papers and poster sessions presented at major
scientific meetings around the world. Subject emphasis since 1995 has been in
the life sciences, environmental sciences and the aquatic sciences, while older
material also covers physics, engineering and materials science. Information is
derived from final programs, abstracts booklets and published proceedings, as
well as from questionnaire responses.”
Georef
“GEOREF,
produced by the American Geosciences Institute, indexes the earth sciences
literature of the world. It contains more than 3.5 million references to
literature covering North America since 1669, and other areas of the world
since 1933.”

fields of physics, electrical and electronic engineering, communications,
computer science, control engineering, information technology, manufacturing
and mechanical engineering, operations research, material science,
oceanography, engineering mathematics, nuclear engineering, environmental
science, geophysics, nanotechnology, biomedical technology and biophysics.”
Meteorological
abstracts
“The MGA
database covers the fields of meteorology, climatology, physical oceanography,
hydrology, glaciology, and atmospheric chemistry and physics. The database
provides abstracts from journal articles and conference proceedings, books and
technical reports.”
NASA technical
reports
“The NASA
Technical Report Server (NTRS) provides students, educators, and the public
access to NASA's technical literature. NTRS also collects scientific and
technical information from sites external to NASA to broaden the scope of

over 800,000 full-text technical reports in 350 subject areas.”
Oceanic abstracts
“Oceanic
Abstracts is the premier database for marine resources, abstracting nearly 500
journals. It covers such topics as marine biology, ecology, marine geology,
geophysics, geochemistry, oceanography, marine pollution and environmental
protection, living and non-living resources, and ships and shipping.”
Web of science
“The Web
of Science is a combination of three databases: Science Citation Index
Expanded, Social Sciences Citation Index, and Arts & Humanities Citation
Index. It indexes more than 8,000 peer-reviewed journals, providing complete
bibliographic data and author abstracts.”
