Publications released in 2004 and later will reflect the following name changes, although a few bulletin chapters may still be released under the old series names. Bulletins will now be released as Scientific Investigations Reports, I-maps and MF-maps will now be released as Scientific Investigations Maps, and the Digital Data Series is now the Data Series. Please see notes on the specific series index pages.
