     The main of ob?ective of this pro?ect paper which was state as to

    etermine whether or not these article in context of Marine "cience 0iels

    following the format that we learne from this courses. :ooing at the result,it seen that only SEstablishing a Territory via Topic Generalization an

    SInicating a Gap are containe in all articles while for the S8utlining the

    "tructure of /esearch 2aper only one article contain these information

    element.

     The possible reason to this isparity may be because topic generalization

    an inicating a gap the most essential component in an introuction for

    article that associate with many fact. These because many researchers trie

    to solve the problem or gap for their experiment. Then, after all the problem

    has been answere, the solution become a fact. Khile the lac of outlining

    the structure of research paper in our research articles, is probably because

    most of the research one is on new leaing topics that has not been one

    before, thus the researchers not exactly now the proper way how to conuct

    the experiment since most of the articles where collecte between the years

    ccoring to the "wales an :im, as the number of types of elements perarticles which only contains at most > components an missing )

    components, these problem may ue to the lac of awareness of an

    appropriate structure for writing this article. owever, we cannot say that

    the research pro?ect not goo or no oing in proper ways, sometimes there

    are things we can inclue of our scienti=c paper but sometimes there also

    lac of information or research paper before this.

     Therefore, the hypothesis which is most of the articles of speci=c stuies

    not follow the structure given by "wales an :im. owever, the iscussion

    above coul not be consiere conclusive as there is a lac of many other

    variables to =x such as ata on whether or not the research article writers

    have been expose to research writing courses prior to publishing their wor.

    nother thing we nee to consier which prevent us to maing a general

    conclusion is that the sample article which we i only & research articles

    may to be small an not enough evience to mae some conclusion.
