Other Electronic Resources
Probably the most comprehensive listing of biology web resources
can be found on the BioSciences
Web Pages compiled by Harvard. A good source of oceanographic
data sets is found on Scripps
Institution of Oceanography web page. Selected other resources
are listed alphabetically below. When it comes time to cite an electronic
resource in your bibliography, you may want to use the APA
style or the MLA
style citation formats. You might also try here
