|---|---|---|---|
| Ecology Abstracts | Published by Cambridge Scientific Abstracts, Ecology Abstracts covers journal literature pertaining to the relationships of organisms to each other and to their environments. About 285 journals are indexed, some completely, others, selectively. Included are relevant papers on evolutionary biology, economics, and systems analysis as they relate to ecosystems or the environment. There is detailed information on resource and ecosystems management and modeling as well as material on the impact of climate, water resources, soil, and man on environmental problems such as depletion, erosion, and pollution. Major areas of coverage include: algae/lichens, animals, annelids, aquatic ecosystems, arachnids, arid zones, birds, brackish water, bryophytes/pteridophytes, coastal ecosystems, conifers, conservation, crustaceans, fungi, grasses, grasslands, high altitude environments, human ecology, insects, legumes, mammals, microorganisms, mollusks, nematodes, paleo-ecology, plants, reptiles, river basins, soil, taiga/tundra, terrestrial ecosystems, vertebrates, wetlands, and woodlands. Online coverage extends back to 1982. | 1982 - present | No |
| EconLit | Produced by the American Economic Association, EconLit is the primary research tool in economics: economic development, forecasting, and history; fiscal and monetary theory; business and public finance; international, health care, regional and urban economics, and more. It provides bibliographic citations, with selected abstracts, of journal articles, books, dissertations and working papers, articles in collective works, conference proceedings, collected essay volumes and full text book reviews. | 1969 - present | No |
| EcoSal | Based on the classic ASM publication, Escherichia coli and Salmonella: Cellular and Molecular Biology, EcoSal is the comprehensive and authoritative source for information on the enteric bacterial cell. It is a continually expanded and updated archive of knowledge consisting of several hundred modules of information with links to sites containing tabular and pictorial information as well as to databases of primary research. | Undetermined | Yes |
| EI Engineering Village 2 | Ei Compendex provides abstracts and full bibliographic citations for worldwide engineering and technical literature and encompasses all engineering disciplines, as well as related fields in science and management. Over 5000 journals and conferences are indexed. | 1970- | Partial |
| EIS: Digests of Environmental Impact Statements | The federal government issues hundreds of environmental impact statements each year - and this one resource provides detailed abstracts of all those statements, also indexing them for easy reference. EIS extracts the key issues from complex government-released environmental impact statements, converting massive documents into concise, readable abstracts. Each entry includes a clear description of the project, sections on positive impact and negative consequences, and legal mandates. | 1985 - present | Partial |
| Encyclopedia of Life Sciences Online (Nature) | Published by Nature, the Encyclopedia of Life Sciences (ELS) is very comprehensive, comprised of over 3,000 original peer-reviewed articles, organized by subject and of three different academic levels (beginning undergraduate, advanced undergraduate and graduate, special essay). ELS is searchable by keywords and can be browsed by subject area. It is extensively cross-referenced and indexed and provides direct links from references to the primary literature as well as to other scientific websites. At least 20% of its content is updated each year. | 2002- | Yes |
| Engineering Research Database | The CSA Engineering Research Database covers the international serial and non-serial literature pertaining to civil, earthquake, environmental, mechanical, and transportation engineering including their complementary fields of forensic engineering, management and marketing of engineering services, engineering education, theoretical mechanics and dynamics, and mathematics/computation. Content includes basic and applied research, design, construction, technological and engineering aspects of air and water quality, environmental safety, energy production and developments in new technologies. | 1966 - present | No |
| ENGnetBase | Online access to CRC handbooks in all fields of engineering. It can be searched through the EngNetBase interface, or through the Ei Engineering Village 2 interface used for Compendex and Inspec. | Yes | |
| Environment Abstracts (CSA) | Contains major categories of environmental information: Environmental Abstracts (abstracts of thousands of journal articles and conference papers with links to selected full-text); full-text sources for news, journals, commentary, federal and state codes, regulations, case law, and agency actions; federal and state waste site data and hazardous materials information. | Varies | Yes |
| Environment Index | The Environmental Policy Index provides researchers with abstracts and indexes for over 1,000 titles, 500 currently, covering environmental issues and policies. The database covers in depth applicable areas of agriculture, ecosystem ecology, energy, environmental law, geography, marine and freshwater resources, public policy, social impacts, urban planning, and more. An environment thesaurus and publication index provide for more precise searching. Online coverage extends back to 1973. | 1973 - present | No |
| Environmental Engineering Abstracts | Environmental Engineering Abstracts covers the world literature pertaining to technological and engineering aspects of air and water quality, environmental safety, and energy production. More than 700 primary journals are thoroughly indexed and abstracted. Over 2,500 additional sources, including monographs and conference proceedings, are also monitored for relevant articles. | 1990 - present | No |
| Environmental Sciences & Pollution Management | This multidisciplinary database abstracts the literature covering air, land, water, and noise pollution, as well as bacteriology, ecology, toxicology, risk assessment, environmental engineering, environmental biotechnology, waste management, and water resources. Abstracts and citations are drawn from over 4000 scientific journals and thousands of other sources including conference proceedings, reports, monographs, books and government publications. | 1981 - present | No |
