Following is a list of online databases for finding journal articles relevant to the Earth and Environmental Sciences. Some databases will give you a list of references that match your search. Some also contain abstracts. Some contain full text online.

A few can be accessed from any computer connected to the web. Some can be accessed from any LIU workstation (any campus computer that is connected to the LIU network). To access those databases go to the CW Post Library homepage database listings (www.cwpost.liunet.edu/cwis/cwp/library/libhome2.htm#elec). Some may only be accessed from workstations in the library (Library homepage: Reference Department icon: Alphabetic Database Listing)
