Blog 2: Sources of Scientific Information

The source of scientific information I chose is from the Thompson Rivers University Library. It is an academic paper that has extensive reference section, as well as in-text citations. It does not have three separate dates for when it was received, accepted and published, but I did make sure I was searching for peer-reviewed papers only. I chose this article because it is somewhat related to my study in a way that mallard ducks and artificial ponds/wetlands are involved, as well as habitat preferences for the mallard ducks

Krapu GL, Greenwood RJ, Dwyer CP, Kraft KM, Cowardin LM. Wetland Use, Settling Patterns, and Recruitment in Mallards. 1997 [accessed 2018 Jun 25];61(3):736. www.jstor.org/stable/3802180.
