Submit Citations

The success of this effort depends on members providing citations. While instructions follow below, please feel free to e-mail Robert Jellison with any questions or problems. Submissions will not immediately appear in the database, but will be incorporated during the next quarterly update.

Bulk Submissions

Bulk submissions must be e-mailed to Robert Jellison as an EndNote, Refer/BibliX, ProCite, or Reference Manager library or as a tab-delimited ascii text files which contain the same "type" of reference and whose fields are those listed below.

The first row of each ascii file should contain an asterisk followed by the reference type, the 2nd row the field names, and the subsequent rows the individual citations. Fields should be delimited by a tab character, multiple authors separated by a semicolon. It is not necessary that all the fields be complete, but if fields are left blank be sure to include the extra tab character. Fields cannot contain <cr> or <tab> characters.

An example of a "Journal Article" bulk submission containing two references is:

R. Jellison;J. M. Melack<tab>1993<tab>Algal Photosynthetic Activity and Its Response to Meromixis in Hypersaline Mono-Lake, California<tab>Limnol. Oceanogr.<tab>38<tab>4<tab>818-837<tab>Photosynthetic activity was measured in hypersaline Mono Lake during an 8-yr period (1983-1990) spanning the onset (1983), persistence (1984-1987), and breakdown of meromixis (1988). Algal biomass in spring and autumn decreased following the onset of meromixis and annual photosynthetic production was reduced (269-462 g C m-2 yr-1; 1984-1986) compared to nonmeromictic conditions (499-641 g C m-2 yr-1; 1989 and 1990). A gradual increase in photosynthetic production occurred even before meromixis ended because of increased vertical flux of ammonium due to deeper mixing and the buildup of ammonium in the monimolimnion. Annual production was greatest in 1988 (1,064 g C m-2 yr-1) when the weakening of chemical stratification and eventual breakdown of meromixis in November resulted in large fluxes of ammonium into the euphotic zone. Most of the variation in rates of light-saturated carbon uptake normalized to chlorophyll a (assimilation numbers) was explained by a regression on temperature (60%); measures of the light and nutrient environments accounted for a further 8% of the observed variation. Estimates of ammonium supply due to vertical mixing and Artemia monica excretion indicate nitrogen is most likely to limit photosynthetic production during spring and late autumn when A. monica is absent and algal biomass high. Light is also likely to limit production during these periods based on comparisons of the average mixed-layer irradiance to the light intensity at which maximum photosynthetic rates were reached. Light limitation was more pronounced under monomictic conditions when algal biomass was higher.<cr>

In the above example "<tab>" and "<cr>" are used to indicate where tabs and carriage returns should be entered; the words "<tab>" or "<cr>" should not be typed into the file. Note that while the "Journal Article" type include fields for URL and keywords, neither were included in this example as they were not in the original citations. Also note the double tabs following the volume number in the 1st reference as the issue number was not present. Not all fields are required and the order of the fields is defined by the second row.
