Abstract: | The 1994 CBE (Council of Biology Editors) manual, Scientific Style and Format, describes two systems of documentation, the citation-sequence system and the name-year system. This handout provides guidelines for each system. (For a class paper, check to see if your instructor prefers one of these systems or another. For a journal article, check the journal's instructions to authors to find out which system to use.) The CBE manual specifies that journal titles should be abbreviated, and it provides rules for abbreviation and a list of standard abbreviations of words commonly used in titles. Although this handout focuses on documentation style, you should be aware that the manual also contains information on many other aspects of scientific style, from prose style to handling of numbers, tables and figures, and conventions in a variety of scientific areas.
