Abstract:
In the ocean sciences, a project was
started in 2008 to bring together scientists,
data managers, and library experts to
explore means to (1) increase the submission
of data to data centers, (2) make data
more accessible for reuse, (3) link data
more closely to traditional journal publications,
and (4) create a system that gives
more credit to data generators. This project
is a joint effort among the Scientific Committee
on Oceanic Research, the International
Oceanographic Data and Information
Exchange (IODE) of the United Nations
Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization’s
Intergovernmental Oceanographic
Commission, and the Marine Biological Laboratory
Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
(MBLWHOI)
Library.
