Reefkeeping related Academic or Professional Journal?

SquidHC · 01/18/2009, 04:14 PM

I am writing an informative speech about reefkeeping for my college speech course. The teacher requires that I find an article in an "Academic or Professional Journal" that pertains to my topic. I have looked everywhere I could think of, including scanning EBSCOhost and Academic Universe. If anyone has any information, PLEASE respond!

I have until Tuesday, Jan 20th to find it.

As far as actual journals go, there's the now defunct Aquarium Sciences and Conservation. Aquaculture, Aquaculture Reasearch, and Aquaculture and Fisheries Management may also be useful to you.

Generally though, we need to know your subject because most relevant aquarium science isn't published in dedicated journals (because there aren't many).

I'm just giving an informational speech directed towards someone setting up a marine aquarium. Due to the obscurity of the topic, I'm sure anything regarding water quality in a reef environment would be acceptable. I emailed my instructor and asked if I could use an article from a reputed magazine would work. If she says yes, I'm in business.
