The following alphabetical list provides the two letter label, the relevant alias, and at least one example for all searchable CSA fields.
===== ============ Label Name/Example ===== ============ AB Abstract [Word Indexed] fish populations.ab. yucca.ab. The Abstract (AB) field contains the full text of the abstract. The abstract includes key points of the source article. Most records have abstracts and when available, authors' abstracts are used, although they may be edited to CSA style. The abstract index contains all searchable words; however, to find precisely what you want, use only distinctive words and phrases and do not use any stop words such as "the" and "of." AC Agency Code (ESPM only) [Word Indexed] army.ac. af.ac. The Agency Code (AC) field is unique to Environmental Impact Statements and refers to the primary United States government agency that prepared the impact statement. This field displays as part of the Agency (AG) field. AE Added Entry [Phrase Indexed] nagel c$.ae. The Added Entry (AE) field is an alias for the Author (AU) and Editor (ED) fields. AF All Searchable Fields aquatic organisms.af. paper mill.af. All Fields (AF) is an alias for all of the fields which occur in the source documents, including value-added fields such as Subject Headings. The only thing excluded from an All Fields search are fields such as "floating subheading" or "Heading word" which are created by the loading process and do not actually appear in the records. AG Agency (ESPM only) [Word Indexed] department of the army.ag. department of transportation.ag. The Agency (AG) field refers to the primary US government agency that prepared the impact statement. Usually, a full name and acronym are provided, as in: Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service, Portland, Oregon; DOI AI ASFA Input Center Number (ASFA Only) ca9300996.ai. The ASFA Input Center Number (AI) is unique to ASFA: Aquatic Sciences & Fisheries Abstracts and its component subfiles. The letters at the beginning of the number indicate which ASFA center indexed and input that record. For a complete list of the available input centers, look under the ASFA Input Center Limit. If you know the two letter code for the Input Center, you can search that code directly in the tr index by using the qualification .tr. AN Accession Number [Phrase Indexed] 0273785.an. 3946976.an. The Accession Number (AN) field contains a unique seven-digit abstract number assigned by Cambridge Scientific Abstracts. AU Author [Phrase Indexed] jeon j k.au. smith$.au. The Author (AU) field currently contains up to 14 author name(s) per record, but this has not always been the case. If the document is a patent this field contains the inventor name(s). Each author name has the format: Lastname I I. Some of the computer science and engineering databases include first names. Because you will not know before you start searching whether first names or initials are used, you may want to do a test search first, display and record and look at the format of the author name. Enter the last name, or if it is a common name, enter the last name and first initial. If you are unsure of the spelling of the last name (macdonald or mcdonald), enter one version and then scroll through the list of names to find the other. AV Availability [Phrase Indexed] http wwwcdc$.av. The Availability (AV) field contains any additional or explanatory information about the document. It may include ordering information, availability, etc. CA Corporate Author [Word Index] dow corning.ca. environmental protection agency.ca. The Corporate Author (CA) field contains corporate authors in the format Organization name, city (country), for example: National Research Council, Washington, DC (USA) It can also include departments and sub-departments. This is the name of the organization that has produced the original source document. This field is often present when there is no personal author field. However, for patent records, the name in the Corporate author field is the patent holder (and the name[s] in the Author field is the inventor). Often, the city and country are also provided; in older records the following abbreviations may still be seen--FRG for the former West Germany; GDR for the former East Germany, and USSR for former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The information is taken from the source document and is not standardized. Enter the single most descriptive word in an a corporate author, for example, "harvard" not "university". Use the distinctive parts of the name and do not search for designations such as Corp, Co, Company, Ltd. etc. Consider both full spellings and abbreviations. CC Classification [Phrase Indexed] ee803.cc. q4 4450.cc. The Classification (CC) field contains the Cambridge Scientific Abstracts Journal name, the classification codes and classification code names in square brackets. This field is browsable by way of a Classification Code Tool. The classification codes and descriptions are broad subject headings that are specific to various databases. For example, SW 0850 is the classification code used in the Water Resources Abstracts to denote that the source document in primarily about lakes. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of much of the material covered, one record may have several classifications. CL Patent Classification [Phrase Indexed] 435 886.cl. a01n.cl. The Patent Classification (CL) field contains the United States and International Classifications for patents. CO Collation [Word Indexed] vol 1, pp 445-446.co. 17-28.co. The Collation (CO) field contains the volume number, issue number and inclusive page numbers of a book or other monograph. This field usually displays as a part of the Source (SO) field. CW Classification Word [Word Indexed] geomagnetism.cw. migrations.cw. The Classification Word (CW) field allows you to search for all instances of a particular word in a Classification (CC). The classification codes and descriptions are broad subject headings that are specific to various databases. For example, SW 0850 is the classification code used in Water Resources Abstracts to denote that the source document is primarily about lakes. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of much of the material covered, one record may have several classifications. DP Date of Publication [Phrase Indexed] 1993.dp. 1997.dp. The Date of Publication field contains the date of publication. This field usually displays as a part of the Source (SO) field. ED Editor [Phrase Indexed] guillou m.ed. schmitt$.ed. The Editor (ED) field contains up to 10 author name(s). Each editor name has the format: Lastname I. I. In most CSA databases, editors of books and conference proceedings appear in this field. Enter the last name, or if it is a common name, enter the last name and first initial. If you are unsure of the spelling of the last name (macdonald or mcdonald), enter one version and then scroll through the list of names to find the other. ER Environmental Regime (ASFA records only) [Phrase Indexed] marine.er. brackish.er. The possible values in the Environmental Regime (ER) field are marine, brackish, and freshwater. Typical uses of the Environmental Regime include limiting a search for a biological species to its occurrence in only brackish water, or retrieving all records relevant to the freshwater environment in a specific country. HW Heading Words [Word Indexed] ultraviolet radiation.hw. ecosystem management.hw. Sometimes you may wish to retrieve every Subject Heading or Identifier that includes a particular word or words; this is done by searching the desired word(s) in the Subject Heading Word (HW) field. IB ISBN [Phrase Indexed] 0120261286.ib. 1560220120.ib. The ISBN (IB) field contains the International Standard Book Number (ISBN). Its purpose is to uniquely identify a book title, an edition of a book, or a monograph produced by a specific publisher. Each ISBN number consists of ten digits. They have been put into the index without spaces or dashes. ID Identifiers [Phrase Indexed] exxon valdez.id. endangered species act.id. The Identifier (ID) field contains free language words or phrases assigned by Cambridge Scientific Abstracts to give fuller notation of the document content than that provided by the controlled index terms. This field contains subject terms not included in the controlled vocabulary but considered by the indexer to be extremely relevant to the record. They may be single word or multiple word terms. Since identifiers are not selected from the controlled vocabulary, different synonyms for the same subject may appear in this field, as well as abbreviations and acronyms. Also, company names, trademarks, the names of legislative acts, government policies and new and up-coming methods and procedures are often assigned as identifiers. Like descriptors, these terms may not appear in the title or abstract, and therefore serve as additional ways to focus your search. The Identifiers field may have more value when you are looking for activities or mentions of an organization and you do not want all fields to be searched, because you may retrieve irrelevant records containing the organization name, e.g., the affiliation of the author or sponsor of a conference. This field is used in two different ways in the backfiles. In backfiles from 1982 through 1992 (issue 7), it contains both descriptors and identifiers mixed together. In backfiles from 1992 (issue 8) to the present, it contains only identifiers. Identifiers are entered into the index as phrases and should be searched exactly as they appear. IN Institution [Word Indexed] cornell.in. waterloo.in. The Institution (IN) field contains the primary author's affiliation. The affiliation appears as shown in the printed document. If there are multiple authors, only the first author's affiliation is given, unless another author is "asterisked". Affiliation is always abbreviated and includes the complete mailing address, when available. The affiliation could have changed since the original document was published. The information is taken from the source document and is not standardized. Enter the single most descriptive word in an institution, for example, "harvard" not "university". Consider both full spellings and abbreviations. IS ISSN [Phrase Indexed] 0019-9567.is. 0022 1317.is. The ISSN (IS) field contains the International Standard Serial Number for the journal in which an article was published. The ISSN is the International Standard Serial Number and is a unique number identifying serial publications such as journals. It appears as an 8 digit number, separated by a hyphen. The ISSN consists of two groups of four digits in Arabic numerals, except possibly for the last, check digit, which may be an X. This conformity makes it easy to search for ISSNs, which can be entered with or without the hyphen between the two groups of four characters.

The Source Description (SD) field includes the Volume/Issue and Pagination. This field usually displays as a part of the Source (SO) field. SF Subfiles [Phrase Indexed] asfa aquaculture abstracts q3.sf. marine biotechnology abstracts q4.sf. Many of the major CSA databases are composed of several Subfiles (SF) merged into one comprehensive and cohesive database. In these major databases, a subfile name corresponds to the print product (for example, the abstracts journal) in which the record originally appeared. A few subfiles exist only as archives because the print equivalent is no longer published. In these large databases, the Subfile field can be used to limit a search to a specific discipline. Other databases that do not have subfiles, merely list the database name in the Subfile field. SH Subject Headings [Phrase Indexed] biocides.sh. finite element method.sh. The Subject Headings (SH) field contains the Subject Headings, also known as descriptors (DE), used by indexers to describe the content of a document. Subject Headings may be controlled subject index terms taken from the controlled vocabulary or thesaurus for each database, Latin taxonomic names for biological organisms, which are indexed to the appropriate hierarchical level (usually genus and species names), or controlled terms for geographic locations taken from the ASFIS-7 Geographic Authority List. A geographic term may include a hierarchy of place names separated by commas. Subject Headings are entered into the index as phrases and should be searched exactly as they appear. This field contains indexing terms taken from a thesaurus or controlled vocabulary. These descriptors may be single or multi-word terms and serve as standard ways to describe the subject of the original document. They may refer to very specific items or to general concepts; often the word or term is not to be found anywhere else in the record, including in the title or the abstract, so a descriptor provides another way for finding the information you want. If you are already familiar with the vocabulary used to index a particular database or can easily refer to it, searching this field retrieves focused results. SL Summary Language [Phrase Indexed] norwegian.sl. spanish.sl. The Summary Language (SL) field indicates the language(s) of abstracts printed with the source document. Often, if the abstract is only in English, then no summary language displays. SO Source [Phrase Indexed] functional ecology.so. marine geophysical researches.so. The Source (SO) field includes a display of all the basic information needed to locate a citation, including the Journal Name (JN) (sometimes Journal Abbreviation) or Monograph Publisher, Place of Publication, Book Title, the Source Description (the Vol/Issue, pagination) and Publication date. TI Title [Word Indexed] dna analysis.ti. leaf rust.ti. The Title (TI) field contains the English language version of a title of journal paper, book, book chapter, conference proceedings, report, report section, patent. For documents which were not written in English, the original or transliterated title usually appears in a separate field, Original Title (OT). Stopwords such as "of" or "the" will display in documents but do not appear in the Title index. However, the word "a," which is a stopword in other fields, can be searched in the title. UP Update Code [Phrase Indexed] 199705.up. The Update Code (UP) is in the format YYYYMM, where YYYY is the 4 digit year and MM is the month of the update. For example, 199706 signifies the June update of 1997. YR Year of Publication [Phrase Indexed] 1993.yr. 91.yr. The Year of Publication (YR) field contains the year in which a document was published. The year may be searched using two or four digits, e.g., "94" or "1994." Only individual years may be searched here; do not enter a range of years.

Accession Number 960590F Agency Department of the Army, Corps of Engineers, Jacksonville, Florida. (ARMY). Corporate Author Department of the Army, Corps of Engineers. Florida, Department of Environmental Protection. Title COAST OF FLORIDA EROSION AND STORM EFFECTS STUDY, REGION III; BROWARD, DADE, AND PALM BEACH COUNTIES, FLORIDA. Source EPA number: 960523F. November 4, 1996. 682 pages and maps. (Final). Abstract: EIS Purpose The implementation of beach nourishment, dune stabilization, and sand transfer plant construction measures in order to address shoreline erosion and storm damage in southeastern Florida is proposed. The project area includes 88 miles of shoreline in Palm Beach, Broward, and Dade counties, extending from the southern end of Key Biscayne to the Jupiter Inlet in northern Palm Beach County. All of Florida's 8,400 miles of tidal shoreline are low-lying and vulnerable to storm surge and other storm-associated damage. The southeastern beaches (Region III) were identified as the first section of a statewide study because it is the most densely populated coastal region in Florida, and has the largest local, state, and federal investment in shore protection. Issues identified in the scoping process include the source of the sand to be used for beach nourishment, impacts of nourishment on sea turtle populations and sea grass beds, and impacts of turbidity and sedimentation on hardgrounds. Under the currently proposed combination of alternatives, beaches would be restored within 21 distinct segments of shoreline through beach fill and nearshore berm placement. Permanent sand transfer plants would be established for the Lake Worth and South Lake Worth Inlets. Dune stabilization through grassing would occur where necessary. Bahamian sand would be used for sand-starved areas in Broward and Dade Counties, creating 215 acres of new beach that should be an ideal habitat for sea turtle nesting. The total estimated first cost to implement these projects is $87.5 million. Positive Impact The project would protect against erosion damage and offset erosion effects, improve management of federal shore protection projects, provide effective protection for the economy, enhance the appearance of the coastal zone and its suitability for beach recreation and sea turtle nesting, and reduce expected storm-induced damage. Sand placed within the project limits would also feed the downdrift beaches to the south. Negative Impact Dredging and beach restoration activities would destroy benthic habitat, temporarily increase water turbidity, and possibly injure such endangered species as manatees and sea turtles. The immediate adverse effects to the borrow site would be the temporary defaunation of the benthic community.

Abstract By means of both pot and field tests, this paper studied the contents of Cd, Pb, Cu, Zn and As and their ecological effects on plant-soil system, in tissues of crops and soil microorganisms. It was found that there exist synergistic effect among these five elements, especially for Cd in combination. The reclamation of soil polluted by these elements in combination is rather difficult to be carried out. The distinctive ecological and chemical behaviors between Cd and As make various reclamation measures less applicable, and thus, further research measures are necessary.
