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
Savage, N. (2013). Modelling: Predictive yield. Nature, 501(7468), S10-1.
A journal article with 2 authors
Showalter, M. R., & Lissauer, J. J. (2006). The second ring-moon system of Uranus: discovery and dynamics. Science (New York, N.Y.), 311(5763), 973–977.
A journal article with 3 authors
Schneider, D. M., Nelson, A., & Mooney, R. (2014). A synaptic and circuit basis for corollary discharge in the auditory cortex. Nature, 513(7517), 189–194.
A journal article with 8 or more authors
Wentz, F. J., Ricciardulli, L., Hilburn, K., & Mears, C. (2007). How much more rain will global warming bring? Science (New York, N.Y.), 317(5835), 233–235.

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".

Government report
Government Accountability Office. (1992). Federal Research: Small Business Innovation Research Program Shows Success but Can Be Strengthened (No. T-RCED-92-45). Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office.

Theses and dissertations

Theses including Ph.D. dissertations, Master's theses or Bachelor theses follow the basic format outlined below.

Doctoral dissertation
Edwards, G. (2010). Effects of at-home reading activities and parental involvement on classroom communication arts assessments: Focus on the high school level (Doctoral dissertation). Lindenwood University, St. Charles, MO.

News paper articles

Unlike scholarly journals, news papers do not usually have a volume and issue number. Instead, the full date and page number is required for a correct reference.

New York Times article
Greenhouse, L. (2008, April 17). Justices Uphold Lethal Injection In Kentucky Case. New York Times, p. A1.

In-text citations

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

This sentence cites one reference (Savage 2013).
This sentence cites two references (Savage 2013; Showalter and Lissauer 2006).

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