Bears Ears Bibliography

Bears Ears Bibliography

In this space I am going to attempt to collect as many publications relating to Bears Ears National Monument and the surrounding region as I can. I will include (and start with) the bibliography I compiled for the White House when they were examining the Bears Ears proposals. These will be marked with a * to indicate their inclusion in the supporting documents. I have removed "in review" or "in press" citations here to make things easier to find; several were included in the White House bibliography and will be cited here once they are formally published. I think this is important because administration officials repeatedly asked me to provide references to why paleo at Bears Ears is important. With this, now you can see too (and see how it grows in the coming years). Indeed, I have created a searchable and downloadable spreadsheet with the references included in this list.

Searchable, downloadable spreadsheet for all your literature meta-analytical needs here.

Additionally I have tried to break up the bibliography by time period, to make finding certain things easier. That does mean a couple publications are duplicated as they cross periods (from the Pennyslvianian to the Permian, for example). I have also tried to note which references are directly within the final boundaries of BENM with a + as opposed to those that are referencing the larger region. As a future goal for this bibliography, I will note in some manner which references are have a primary focus on BENM and which only mention work there tangentially, probably with a "-" to signify only passing reference. Some of the titles will make that obvious anyway but I feel it can still be useful overall. I am also debating adding a special designation for papers that are within Red Canyon as that area was the focus of much back and forth between the administration and the various advocacy groups.

This page will contninually grow as new posters, abstracts, and papers are added. New additions will be noted here with the date added. I am hopeful that all the papers, abstracts, preprints, and posters will eventually be hotlinked here. Currently I have hotlinked all the online resources through the Permian, with scattered younger references as well. The list is primarily the paleontological references; geological references will be added under the geology section at some point as well.

Comments, additions, etc. are always welcomed!
