BRIE PUBLICATION LIST

Updated 10 March 1999

Funding by NSF for biogeochemical research in Tomales Bay, California, began in 1985. From 1989 until 1995 a project entitled "Biogeochemical Reactions in Estuaries" (BRIE) was conducted as a continuation and expansion of the initial funding under NSF's Land-Margin Ecosystems Research (LMER) program. Publications marked with "*" have derived some or all of their support from NSF-LMER funding. Other funding and support have included NSF other than LMER, NOAA, USDA, USGS, USDOE, MMWD, NMWD, plus miscellaneous other sources.
