HEIDELBERG, Germany -- On August 31, EurekaMag.com has changed its domain name to GeoScience.net and its slogan to Biology - Geography - Health, reflecting a shift to a global digital approach and to further strengthen its presence worldwide.

GeoScience.net currently covers a total of 37.4 million bibliographic references from as early as the beginning of the 18th century, i.e., 1703. While this content base has not been extended, the change in URL is accompanied by a significantly upgraded number of article summaries and abstracts: while the old site contained a total of 11.8 million summaries, the new domain features a total of 15.2 million abstracts which is an increase by almost 30%. Now over 40% of all bibliographic references contain a summary of their scientific content.
