! Friedrich August von Alberti (1834): Beitrag zu einer Monographie des bunten Sandsteins, Muschelkalks und Keupers und die Verbindung dieser Gebilde zu einer Formation. Hosted by Hathi Trust Digital Library, a collaboration of universities of the Committee on Institutional Cooperation and the University of California system to establish a repository for their digitized collections.
! Albertiana (website
hosted by Utrecht University).
The newsletter of the Subcommission on Triassic Stratigraphy.
The primary aim of Albertiana is to promote the interdisciplinary collaboration and
understanding among the members of the IUGS Subcommission on
Triassic Stratigraphy. E-Albertiana is formated in Adobe Portable document format (PDF),
issues are
available
for download. See also:

over the years by people in
the Paleogeographic Atlas Project. Search in a "Climate Sensitive Sediments Database",
"Floral Database", "Lithology Database", "Features Database", and a
"Reference Database". Go to:
