Citation standard

Articles link scientific claims to identifiable public records. A citation should make the source organization, title and destination visible. Where a statement is specific to a place or period, the prose must keep that boundary.

External links

External pages are maintained by their publishers. Renewal Ecology reviews links during editorial updates but does not control later changes. Access dates should be added to a production citation database if required by the publisher’s house style.
