Style Request: [Bioresources]

Dear all,

many thanks for all your work,

I edited my post to fit the requirements found here

I want to submit an article in Bioresources which is an online open access journals with an obvious topic :D
http://www.ncsu.edu/bioresources/
ISSN: 1930-2126

example of freely available article
http://www.ncsu.edu/bioresources/BioRes_09/BioRes_09_3_3755_Editorial_Finkbeiner_Indirect_Land_Use_Change_5597.pdf

Citations examples you required :

I put [i] as italics (code-like) ; the title of books should be italics as well as the journal while citing an article.
I am not very sure about the style of the book's citations.

Here are some complementary elements :
*authors instructions are here :
http://www.ncsu.edu/bioresources/authors.htm
but are not that usefull for litterature concerns.

*Please find here the instructions copied from the Bioresources template :

********* copied from the template *********
The format of the citations, as shown in the present example, should match the system used in J. Water Resources Planning and Management (sometimes called “J. Water Resources Mangement” in versions of EndNote® software). Notice the form in which different kinds of citations appear at the end of the article (Adams and Spencer 2001; Arunkumar 2002; Bannix et al. 2003).

The style for J. Water Resources Planing and Management does exist in the zotero datanase but is uncorrect.
water-resources-management.csl

I started to create the style but still have some troubles :
*editing tool said the style "water resources management" is actually equivalent to Springer Basic (author date)
but for examples, in the "springer basic" style the years did not appear 2003a 2003b 2003c when citing same year same author articles, alghough it did work in the "water resources" style

*the first name does not appear with a . after first capital letter ; I did not figure out how to modify this,

*no line skip between 2 citations ... ?

*Second and following lines of a citation with a 0.25inch space

*et al. should not appear and all authors should be appearing ... ?

*the journals which do not have an issue number (only a volume number) make trouble with the formatting, the page numbers appear right next to the volume withou space and coma.. in both cases either putting [space+coma] as a sufix for issue or a prefix for pages...

There might have other problems i did not detect ... Thanks for helping.


Thanks again, have a good day!
