Journal Portal
Scientific periodicals that publish literature
relating to African Rift Lake biology
Latest additions or corrections: 29 April 2015
ere is a list of links to the scientific journals and specialty publications that I use in
maintaining the Bibliography of Lake Malawi Biology and other pages
of this site, MalawiCichlids.com.
irtually all of these journals have
published at least one or two papers on the subjects of the bibliography, so — since you
are browsing this site — you may also find these links handy if you use the scientific
literature of evolutionary biology, ecology, ichthyology, zoology, limnology, and related fields.
These journal Web pages generally provide free access to article abstracts. A minority
(the growing number of open-access journals, indicated here by the symbol 
)
supply the entire article free of charge; at the rest, articles can be purchased — for
a reasonable price from some publishers; for an outrageous one (upwards of US$50 for a few pages) from others.
he links will open in another window (the same window for all these links). Usually, I have tried
to link to the page where previous issues can be browsed, their contents searched, or both;
that page generally has a link to the journal's home page where the current issue may be found.
I will attempt to keep the links up-to-date and to add new ones from time to time. Additions will be
flagged as 
for at least a month. Your suggestions
are always welcome — email me.
