ASFA: Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts Database Overwhelmingly cited by a majority of aquatic science librarians as their primary database, the ASFA series is the premier reference in the field of aquatic resources. Input to ASFA is provided by a growing international network of information centers monitoring over 5, 000 serial publications, books, reports, conference proceedings, translations and limited distribution literature. ASFA is a component of the Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Information System (ASFIS), formed by four United Nations agency sponsors of ASFA and a network of international and national partners. Sources covered include over 3, 000 periodicals, conference proceedings, technical reports, trade journal/newsletter items, patents, books, and press releases. Subject Coverage • limnology • aquaculture • marine biotechnology • aquatic organisms • marine environments • aquatic pollution • meteorology • brackish water • oceanography environments • policy and legislation • conservation • wildlife management • environmental quality • fisheries • freshwater environments Dates of Coverage 1971 - current. Update Frequency Monthly, with approximately 3, 700 new records added. Size Over 1, 501, 033 records as of January 201

This database is totally comprehensive in its coverage of living and non-living resources, meteorology and geology, plus environmental, technological, and legislative topics. Subject Coverage • * Biological Oceanography • * Ecology • * Physical and chemical oceanography • * Marine geology • * Geophysics • * Geochemistry • * Marine pollution • * Nonliving marine resources • * Navigation and communications • * Maritime law • * Desalination • * Ships • * Shipping • * Marine biology (Note Oceanic Abstracts is not included in ASFA but is part of Pro. Quest Aquatic Science Collection)

Recent Abstract & Indexing Innovation ILLUSTRATA & DEEP INDEXING

Recent Innovations: Deep Indexing 2007 CODi. E Award Winner: Best Online Science & Technology Service

Why Index Tables & Figures? 1. Images are included in Scientific and Technical articles only because they illustrate something fundamental about the research field work, experiment findings or conclusions 2. Distilled essence of the research – the closest thing to the raw datasets 3. Articles with the right kinds of objects quickly establish the relevance of the related data and findings 4. These objects are most often invisible using traditional article-level and full-text searching

Deep Indexing: Indexing Process 1. Identification of tables and figures (images, charts, maps, etc. ) found within a scholarly article 2. Extraction of critical data and information within and surrounding each table or figure (including full caption) to provide the indexing 3. Assignment of a category

Search Results Options to narrow results by: • Date • Scholarly Journals • Full text • Source Type • And more. . . • Indexed Images 5995 hits … From a regular keyword search
