[h=2]A literature update from BASC’s research department[/h]The research department monitors scientific journals for relevant papers related to our sport and the quarry we pursue, as well as others on wildlife in general and the wider countryside. At regular intervals we publish on the BASC website a review summarising the latest papers, with links to the original content or abstracts where appropriate.

The latest review contains abstracts of the papers listed below. To access the document and archives of previous Literature Reviews, please follow this link:
