Scholary (Peer Reviewed) Articles

"Scholarly" or peer-reviewed articles undergo a (sometimes lengthy) review process by experts in the field before publication.  This helps ensure that the information published is credible, objective, and follows proper research procedures.  Examples of scholarly/peer reviewed research include articles in scientific journals, books from academic presses, many textbooks, and some specialty encyclopedias or similar reference material.  If you have any questions about whether an article you've located is scholarly/peer reviewed, please ASK your professor or a reference librarian before you use it!

Suggested Journals

This is not a comprehensive list of journals available for your research.  It is merely a suggestion list to get you started.  Please speak with your professor or a librarian if you need additional suggestions for appropriate journals.

Suggested Databases

Sometimes it's more beneficial to search specific subject databases, rather than the entire GALILEO Discover.  Here is a list of suggested subject databases for Marine Biology & Environmental Science.
