Other Links Useful To Ecologists

Data and Other Files
Style Files for
formatting BibTeX bibliographies in LaTeX documents (right-click
(Windows), or Crtl-click (Mac) to download): The American
Naturalist (amnat2.bst);
Ecology (ecology.bst);
Ecology Letters (ecology_letters2.bst);
Journal of Ecology (jecol2.bst);
Oikos (oikos.bst).
If these don't work precisely right (e.g., jecol2 doesn't format
chapters in edited books correctly, ecology.bst includes URL's) my
work-around is to edit the .bbl file (thanks to A. King) or eliminate
the URL in selected references in my reference manager (my choices:
BibDesk or
JabRef). For Ecology and Journal of Ecology, use
\usepackage[authoryear]{natbib} and \bibpunct{(}{)}{;}{a}{}{,} to
control details of in text references. See James
Bray's LaTeX help page for usage.
