interest. This version of the database contains 299 total bibliographic
entries considered to have some direct relevance to the project.
References, suggested during the interviews with experts (Task 3), are
included in the database as well as those provided by District Staff. It is
anticipated that a few additional entries or adjustments to the database
may occur throughout this project, as new references are discovered or
acquired. The final version of this bibliography database will be delivered
with the final report.
A list of key words was developed for selecting bibliographic entries and
is included as Table 1. These keywords were grouped into topic
categories and can be used to query the database. Many of the entries are
associated with more than one code and therefore can be cross-referenced
to more than one subject area.
The references contained in this MS Access database can be queried to
generate the following reports:
· A listing of 86 Biscayne Bay specific references;
· A listing of 99 references that are considered most relevant;
4
· Topic Category 1 - Animal Species (146 references);
· Topic Category 2 - Aquatic Plants and Habitats (98 references);
· Topic Category 3 - Ecological Indicators (45 references);
· Topic Category 4 - Impact Approach (70 references);
· Topic Category 5 - Water Quality Data (89 references);
· Topic Category 6 - Hydrologic Data (40 references);
· An alphabetical listing by author of all 299 references;
Appendix A includes a report that lists all 299 references alphabetically by
author. Each bibliographic entry contains the author name(s), date, title of
publication, publication, publisher, and check boxes for topic categories.
