Abstract
From September 1996 to December 1997, EPA's National Center for Environmental Assessment (NCEA) worked with George Mason University to present a semester long, graduate level class on 'Introduction to Geographic Information Systems (GIS)' that was taught at EPA. This document represents a compilation of the bibliographies submitted by the students. The abstracts are presented in alphabetical order, by author, and have only been edited for style, not content. References that were cited by more than one student will appear as duplicates in this document. It does provide an excellent resource on a very broad range of topics, including GIS used to study environmental impacts on land, water and air; GIS used in epidemiology studies; GIS used to study environmental justice; and GIS used to study changes in natural resources. Many references also cover issues concerning the setup of GIS systems and the collection use of data from remote sensing and aerial photography for GIS studies. Approximately 510 different articles have been cited.
