Many of these links, especially DOI links, go to the publication’s homepage. where users may encounter a paywall. If this happens, here is a link with extra steps you can take.

Please also see the Salton Sea Project library, a repository for references used in the preparation of technical review materials for the Water Importation Expert Panel. This was used primarily to streamline the creation of bibliographies and to centrally store any useful materials as a resource for research on the Salton Sea. To request access to this database or to request more information contact Daniel Hastings at dhasting@ucsc.edu. The Salton Sea Project library contains nearly 500 entries, including many Salton Sea-related reports and cases, laws, and related documents.
