While many hyper-enthusiastic rowing technologists and physiologists will already have a sourcefor citations, this page has been created to help those who do not have access to the universityresearch databases. It contains links to lists of citations from the last 18 years, found via BIDS searches of the Science Citation Index in the UK, during 1998. The lists are aimed at being shortcuts, to give you a start in acquiring scientific rowing-specific information. Other listswill be created if requested. If you want to read these articles in full, talk to your nearest library or university and try asking for a reprint request if they don't keep it in stock. Several of the citations in each list do include a full abstract, which may be useful. You may also write to the main author atthe address given in the citation, if you require more information or have a specific reason to ask for a reprint.
There may, of course, be some overlap between the searches.
