The Bibliography of Aeolian Research (The BAR) contains 30,012 references to papers and reports that focus on aeolian research - the scientific study of the detachment, transport, and deposition of sediments by wind. Aeolian research spans a broad array of disciplines and may include: the study of the physics of blowing sand, dust, and other granular material (i.e., saltation, suspension, creep and abrasion); the study of geomorphic processes in arid environments and associated aeolian landforms, deposits, and sedimentary features; the study of wind erosion and its control by tillage, cover crops, shelterbelts, and other management practices; and the study of mineral dust, dust emissions, atmospheric transport and the effects of fine particulate matter on climate, weather, and air quality. The BAR was constructed from various sources. A significant number of citations were drawn from online bibliographies such as "A Bibliography of Wind Erosion and Related Phenomena" and "A Bibliography of Aeolian (Eolian) Sand Dunes and Related Phenomena" compiled by Andrew Warren , University College London and "Aeolian Papers of the Month", a list of publications compiled by Thomas Gill , University of Texas at El Paso. Within the last few years, numerous bibliographic citations have been drawn from periodic announcements of "New Additions to the BAR" posted on the "Wind Erosion and Aeolian Processes Discussion List." These announcements are constructed through a team effort whereby bibliographic citations are collected by the three core team members through key-word searches of online databases and by combing through recent issues of pertinent journals, edited volumes, and conference proceedings. In addition, other members of the aeolian research community often send notification of recent aeolian research publications or alert the editors to missing citations. New additions are uniformly formatted and fed into a central data base maintained at the United States Department of Agriculture in Lubbock, Texas where they are sorted by author so that duplications can be identified and eliminated. Citations that survive this screening process form the final list of "New Additions to the BAR." The last step involves the creation of webpages from the final full list of bibliographic citations. The website provides convenient and free access to the bibliography from anywhere in the world. English translations are provided for most titles. For the most part, this has been accomplished through the use of translation software. When possible, volunteers have been recruited to provide translations and to check for accuracy. Mia Kotilainen, University of Helsinki, was kind enough to translate and correct many of the Finnish citations and most Dutch titles were translated by Dirk Goossens of Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Eddy de Pauw of ICARDA and Simon van Donk of USDA-ARS, Manhattan. Portuguese translations have been corrected by José da Cunha Medeiros of Empresa Brasileira de Pesquisa Agropecuária, Paraíba, Brazil. Some additions and corrections of Icelandic references have been provided by Ólafur Arnalds of Agricultural Research Institute, Iceland. Citations that have a Digital Object Identifier (DOI) can be accessed using a   "DOI Resolver" The BAR was last updated on 14 April 2008.
