1. Authors' note: It is impossible to include every bit of important research on a subject in a book where one of the goals is to preserve readability. In the case of shale gas and tight oil, the total amount of technical literature is massive, and growing. The supplemental bibliography provided below is an attempt to gather important publications related to shale gas development, resources, fracking, and environmental risk from a number of different sources, including lists compiled by the USEPA, the American Association of Petroleum Geologists, and the authors. Some of these references were included at the ends of various chapters, but are repeated here for completeness. This bibliography is not intended to be a comprehensive compilation of every relevant publication related to shale gas. Rather, the intent was to provide an overview and survey of the important scientific issues under investigation. – DJS and SJB.
