One way to disseminate knowledge gained from research is to publish results in peer-reviewed journals. Article publication signifies that the research methodology, results, and data analysis are valid and approved by other researchers. Furthermore, peer-reviewed journal publication also provides an opportunity for academia and community members to verify the results. Publication of these results provide a basis for future research in the field. Please see below for a selected list of publications from AAFH member agencies:
