The last 2-3 years the Geoblogosphere has been growing rapidly. First attempts were made to categorize and summarize the hundreds of geoblogs and geoblog topics. Further, few geoscientists tried to investigate the background of this developing geo-community. With this page I want to post a kind of bibliography of scientific papers and important articles and projects dealing with the geoblogosphere  in a more universal sense.

Please feel free to add links and citations in the comment section. I will complete this bibliography with your suggestions.

Journal Papers, Conference Abstracts etc.
