This first Quarterly Report of the Energy Research Information System (ERIS) contains descriptions of 300 current and recently completed energy research projects within the Old West Region (i.e., Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, and Wyoming) and several projects outside the Region. The purpose of ERIS, a computerized information system, is to provide an inventory of research in the Region and a communication channel for energy research users (e.g., funding agencies, government agencies, industry, and public interest groups). The research projects are categorized under these subject areas: Coal, which is subdivided into general, reclamation, water resource, atmospheric and bioenvironmental studies, social and economic studies, energy conversion and transport, and mining and extraction methodology; Petroleum, Natural Gas, and Oil Shale; Alternate Energy Resources; Nuclear Energy; Other Mined Resources; Energy Conversion/Consumer Aspects; Land Use; and Other. Four indexes are also provided on location, personal name, organization, and subject. (BYB)
