SPUMS Journal and 5000 items available

The Rubicon Foundation, Inc. has shown an enormous amount of growth over the last several months. We wanted to take another opportunity to share this with you.

Recently the Rubicon Research Repository (RRR) reached two milestones which we felt were worth mentioning.

We are pleased to announce a recent collaboration with the South Pacific Underwater Medicine Society (SPUMS) to include their journal in the RRR project. The SPUMS Journal started in 1971 and will be held to a three year embargo for their members. That is over 30 years worth of materials that will soon be publicly available. The SPUMS Journal is particularly noteworthy to divers because of it's readability in discussing complex topics. We have just started to add articles to this collection so please check it out and watch it grow (found here).

We are also announcing that the database now contains 5000 items making it the single largest collection online for these types of materials. Check out the project: Rubicon Research Repository: Home

Another project that may be of interest is 'The Rubicon Review'. In today's world of lightning fast research and publication, it is both difficult and time consuming to stay up-to-date with the most current information. The Rubicon Review, will periodically update our new Yahoo Group with new and relevant literature in environmental physiology. You can access the group directly here or read more about the project here (including a week by week breakdown of the searches) here.


Over the next couple of months we would like to improve the usability of our resources. We are asking that you please consider supporting our work by placing a link on your site and making a donation to allow for further expansion. Our goal is to reach $5000.00 in donations to celebrate our recent 5000 item milestone. Make your donation here!
