Press Releases

The Geoengineer.org is very excited to announce the launch of the Geoengineering Literature finder, GEOLIFI!

In Geoengineer.org we recognize that access to the most recent geoengineering information is becoming more important and that practicing engineers have essentially no systematic access to this information.

The Online Geoengineering Library is a popular tool within Geoengineer.org and intends to provide access to publications available online at no cost. However such a database, will always be incomplete, because many publications are not (and will not be) available online.

Thus, Geoengineer.org undertook a 2-year development project to establish GEOLIFI. GEOLIFI intends to become the most comprehensive, searchable online database of geoengineering papers published worldwide not only in journals, but also in conferences, symposia, workshops, and even magazines and reports. GEOLIFI is established in cooperation with publishers, conference organizers as well as professional geoengineering organizations and is available at: http://geolifi.geoengineer.org/.

The database allows searches to be performed using not only author names or paper titles, but also abstracts! The ultimate goal is to collect and disseminate unprecedented numbers of papers in a effective manner. The database as of today includes over 2,000 papers, most of them not otherwise available online, and will continue to expand on a daily basis. Geoengineers are able to querry the database, identify relevant publications and purchase them immediately. Many of these publications would not be otherwise available, except by subscribing to a journal or purchasing the proceedings.
