摘要:Four databases have been used to analyze Spanish scientific production in Ecology and Environment: ICYT, a domestic database, for those works published in Spanish journals, and three interactional databases, Chemical Abstracts, Biosis and ASFA, for articles published in foreign journals. For both series, a subject distribution is made, according to four broad headlines included in the National Programme on Environment and Natural Resources : Environmental destruction; Environmental preservation; Environmental Technologies; and Dynamics of Ecosystems. Corporate sources of the articles are also analyzed, as well as their geographic distribution and the most frequently used journals. The high participation of universities (over two thirds of total articles) justifies a more detailed study of this institutional sector.
