Bibliographic Database Search
Wildlands CPR continues to maintain and update a bibliographic database of over 22,000 citations documenting the physical and ecological effects of roads and off-road vehicles. In the U.S. alone, there are 6 million kilometers of public roads and over 36 million registered off-road vehicles. We compiled this bibliography to help people access relevant scientific literature on erosion, fragmentation, sedimentation, pollution, effects on wildlife, aquatic and hydrologic effects, and various other up-to-date information on the impacts of roads and off-road vehicles.
The database was originally completed in May 1995 and the latest update was completed in May 2012. Numerous electronic databases were searched and the records were imported into Reference Manager. A list of databases and keywords searched is available upon request. The searches resulted in a variety of scientific and "grey" literature including journal articles, conference proceedings, books, lawsuits, and agency reports most with accompanying abstracts. For more information contact Adam, Wildlands CPR's Science Program Director.
