Search by keyword and filter by:
date
region
topic
publication (Climatewire, Energywire...)
1. place phrases in quotes
"wind power"
2. use - or - for synonyms
cafo* or "concentrated animal feed operation*"
There are several ways to formulate your search. Keep in mind though that because this is a full text database, using - and - to connect your concepts will, in most cases, result in a large number of items and many will not be relevant.
Best to try and bring the word/s closer together.
Bring the words closer together:
/s = same sentence
"atlantic salmon" /s (gmo* or "genetically modified organisim*")
/p = same paragraph
"atlantic salmon" /p (gmo* or "genetically modified organisim*")
hlead(...) - limit to headline and lead paragraphs (you can use -and- here since you are limiting where the words appear
hlead("atlantic salmon" and (gmo* or "genetically modified organisim*"))
Filters on the left:
search within
date
publication type - then sources
etc.
Example:
"atlantic salmon" /p (gmo* or "genetically modified organisim*")
Lots of ways to limit the results:
Change sort from Relevance to Newest to Oldest (upper right)

Similar to Nexis Uni, because this is a full text database, using - and - to connect your concepts will, in most cases, result in a large number of items and many will not be relevant.
Best to try and bring the word/s closer together and/or change the search field.
To bring the words closer together use N/#
"renewable energy" N/5 subsid*
You can use -and - but, if you retrieve too many results, tye changing the search field from Anywhere to:
Anywhere except full text - NOFT
