format is based on:
The
CBE

and the Journals of
Wildlife Management, Forestry, and Range Management.
Citation examples are provided in Name-Year
format. Sources should be listed alphabetically in the Literature Cited
section at the end of the proposal or project plan. These items are referred to in the
body of the proposal or project plan text using the styles listed below.
