Publications
KWI publications include abstracts, proceedings, and field trip guides from Institute sponsored symposia, results of Institute research, and digital reprints of books and journals. There are two publication series, Special Publications (blue series) and Digital Reprints (green series). Because some of the KWI Special Publications are now out-of-print, these publications are available in their entirety on CD-ROM in Portable Document Format (PDF).
