Mendeley Collection of literature on Deep-Sea Mining

[From the INDEEP mailing list]

With the generous help of undergraduate biology student Daniëlle de Jonge from the University of Groningen, Netherlands, the DOSI and INDEEP community now have a comprehensive library containing over 200 papers on a variety of aspects of deep-sea mining.  We decided to use Mendeley as a platform for this library as it is simple to access and a good tool for future collaboration.

Please let me know if any papers are missing from this library and I will add them. For those of you who are not yet familiar with Mendeley Reference Manager tool, Daniëlle has provided a brief manual below to get you started.

Kind regards

Every main folder also includes all references present in the subfolders (so the folder ‘Literature on Deep Sea Mining’ contains all available references).
