| Question | — |
In scientific writing, what is the protocol for shortening nouns? I often see place or species names shortened in scientific journal articles and would like to know what the correct protocol is. Can I shorten "Gough Island" to just " Gough"? Or "leatherback turtle" to " leatherback"? (more) |
