Subject: Bibliography on Biodiversity Assessment Methodologies
Cc: davidc@erin.gov.au, tony@erin.gov.au


I have just placed a new bibliography on Biodiversity Assessment Methodologies
on to the ERIN World Wide Web Server.  The Bibliography is broad and covers
a lot of topics (it is extremely hard to draw boundaries - especially without
reading each and every paper).  It includes a lot of papers from developing
countries so is not just first-world based.

We have set up a search protocol for the bibliography and this seems to work
extremely well.  [For American users - we spell modelling with two 'l's so you
will need to use that for pulling things out of the keywords, however spelling
within the bibliography itself is as they appear in the paper itself].

I would like to thank all those who replied to my earlier requests, your help
 and
lists of papers has been appreciated.

The bibliography will be maintained and I have many more papers piled up on my
 desk to
add. Any additions, corrections etc. would be appreciated.

The URL address for the Bibliography is:

http:// kaos.erin.gov.au/life/general_info/biodiv_assess_intro.html

Each month we launch a new version of our Web server with lots of additional
information.  We have a "What's New" area so that you can keep up to date.

This month for example, several new newsletters on biodiversity, endangered
 species,
wildlife protection, bird and bat banding, etc. have been added.  We have also
added a lot of new information resulting from our remote sensing work on
 Environmental
Monitoring.  Also there is the launch of the State of Environment Reporting
 Framework
for Australia and information on Landcare and Pollution etc.

The general address for our server is:

http://kaos.erin.gov.au/erin.html


If you haven't got a World Wide Web client, then you need to set one up.  See
 your
systems administrator.

Alternatively, there is an ftp (file transfer protocol) address for
further information on World Wide Web.
