The source of scientific information I chose to review is
“The Effects of winter conditions on the white-tailed deer of Delta Marsh, Manitoba”
https://cdnsciencepub-com.uml.idm.oclc.org/doi/pdf/10.1139/z76-148
I believe this source is an academic, peer reviewed research material source.
It is an academic source for the following reasons:
- The information has been written by an expert in the field
- The author Emil Kucera is an expert in the field and is employed (at the time of publication) through University of Manitoba
- there is in text citations
- The author uses multiple sources as in text citation throughout the material and referees to studies conducted by other experts; in the discussion portion it is seen example (Hill and Harris 1943).
- contains a bibliography
- author lists acknowledgments of other studies she referenced in her work similar to that of a bibliography.
It is a peer reviewed source because:
- It’s received date is indicated at the beginning meaning that it was reviewed by at least one reviewer before publication. Date received for this material was March 29,1976.
It is research material
- This is a research material as the author has subheadings for their study area, methods and results. This is done for research material.
Great!
