Using reference management software

Paperpile	The citation style is built in and you can choose it in Settings > Citation Style or Paperpile > Citation Style in Google Docs.
EndNote	Find the style here: output styles overview
Mendeley, Zotero, Papers, and others	The style is either built in or you can download a CSL file that is supported by most references management programs.
BibTeX	BibTeX syles are usually part of a LaTeX template. Check the instructions to authors if the publisher offers a LaTeX template for this journal.

Journal articles

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

A journal article with 1 author

Dolgin, E., 2013. Cancer vaccines: Material breach. Nature 504, S16-7.

A journal article with 2 authors

Liu, Y., Imlay, J.A., 2013. Cell death from antibiotics without the involvement of reactive oxygen species. Science 339, 1210–1213.

A journal article with 3 authors

Bonderer, L.J., Studart, A.R., Gauckler, L.J., 2008. Bioinspired design and assembly of platelet reinforced polymer films. Science 319, 1069–1073.

A journal article with 4 or more authors

Yu, Z., Yang, J., Amalfitano, S., Yu, X., Liu, L., 2014. Effects of water stratification and mixing on microbial community structure in a subtropical deep reservoir. Sci. Rep. 4, 5821.

Reports

This example shows the general structure used for government reports, technical reports, and scientific reports. If you can't locate the report number then it might be better to cite the report as a book. For reports it is usually not individual people that are credited as authors, but a governmental department or agency like "U. S. Food and Drug Administration" or "National Cancer Institute".

In-text citations

References should be cited in the text by name and year in parentheses:

This sentence cites one reference (Dolgin, 2013).

Here are examples of in-text citations with multiple authors:
