Data Citation and Publication for Researchers.
(UK Environmental Observation Framework (UKEOF), Bailrigg, UK, 2014)Data are a fundamental part of the research process. Without them, it is impossible to verify the results of published studies or reproduce the science. Yet modern datasets are so large that it is not practical for the ... -
Data Governance.
(UK Environmental Observation Framework (UKEOF), Bailrigg, UK, 2014)Data is the lifeblood of any business and is a valued resource and an asset. Good data governance means that all data has a designated owner (usually someone senior in the organisation) to ensure it is managed and looked ... -
Data Identification, Citation and Tracking Best Practices : a white paper from the observatory best practices/lessons learned series.
(Consortium for Ocean Leadership, Washington, DC, 2019)Data identification and citation are critical for maintaining the standard of reproducibility in science as well as furthering scientific discovery by building off of the works of others. With advances in observation ... -
The Data Librarian's Handbook. [Facet Publishing Book Webpage]
(2016)An insider’s guide to data librarianship packed full of practical examples and advice for any library and information professional learning to deal with data. There is a growing interest in data as an object of interest ... -
Data Management Planning for Citizen Science.
(UK Environmental Observation Framework (UKEOF), Bailrigg, UK, 2020)This guidance note provides specific, practical advice to citizen science practitioners (specifically those involved in the planning, collection, storage or use of data) about the development of data management plans ... -
DataOne best practices primer.
(DataONE, Albuquerque, NM, 2012)Primer on Data Management: What you always wanted to know. The goal of data management is to produce self-describing data sets. If you give your data to a scientist or colleague who has not been involved with your project, ... -
Decision Guide: Selecting Decision Support Tools for Marine Spatial Planning.
(The Woods Institute for the Environment, Stanford University, Stanford, CA, 2011)In this Decision Guide, the term marine spatial planning is used, but emphasis is placed on the systematic and spatial nature of these approaches rather than the name itself. The systematic component provides a framework ... -
Defining principles for mobile apps and platforms development in citizen science [ Workshop results: December 2016, Berlin, April 2017, Gothenburg].
(2018)Apps for mobile devices and web-based platforms are increasingly used in citizen science projects. While extensive research has been done in multiple areas of studies, from Human-Computer Interaction to public engagement ... -
Design and Application of an Optical Sensor for Simultaneous Imaging of pH and Dissolved O2 with Low Cross-Talk.
(2016)Visualization and quantification of analytes such as O2 or pH is essential in biological research. Here we present the design and application of a new optical dual-analyte sensor for imaging, optimized to have low ... -
Design and Performance Test of an Ocean Turbulent Kinetic Energy Dissipation Rate Measurement Probe.
(2018)Ocean turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate is an essential parameter in marine environmental monitoring. Numerous probes have been designed to measure the turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate in the past, and ... -
Design Principles for Industrial Data-Driven Services.
(2022)The continuously growing availability and volume of data pressure companies to leverage them economically. Subsequently, companies must find strategies to incorporate data sensibly for internal optimization and find new ... -
Designing a Large Scale Autonomous Observing Network: A Set Theory Approach.
(2022)A well designed observing network is vital to improve our understanding of the oceans and to obtain better predictions of the future. As autonomous marine technology develops, the potential for deploying large autonomous ... -
Determination of dissolved organic carbon and total dissolved nitrogen in seawater using High Temperature Combustion Analysis. [GOOS ENDORSED PRACTICE]
(2022)This document describes best practices for analysis of dissolved organic matter (dissolved organic carbon and total dissolved nitrogen) in seawater samples. Included are SOPs for sample collection and storage, details ... -
Determination of ultra-low oxygen concentrations in oxygen minimum zones by the STOX sensor.
(2009)The methods used until now have not been able to reliably resolve O2 concentrations in oceanic oxygen minimum zones below 1–2 µmol L−1. We present a new amperometric sensor for the determination of ultra‐low O2 concentrations ... -
Developing Autonomous Observing Systems for Micronutrient Trace Metals.
(2019)Trace metal micronutrients are integral to the functioning of marine ecosystems and the export of particulate carbon to the deep ocean. Although much progress has been made in mapping the distributions of metal micronutrients ... -
Developing collaborative marine turtle monitoring in the Kimberley region of northern Australia.
(2015)Common to Indigenous land and sea management plans is the value placed on traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) and the articulation of how TEK and scientific methods can be brought together for better management. Livelihood ... -
Developing Standards for Improved Data Quality and for Selecting Fit for Use Biodiversity Data.
(2020)The quality of biodiversity data publicly accessible via aggregators such as GBIF (Global Biodiversity Information Facility), the ALA (Atlas of Living Australia), iDigBio (Integrated Digitized Biocollections), and OBIS ... -
Development of a Comparison Framework for Evaluating Environmental Contours of Extreme Sea States.
(2021)Environmental contours of extreme sea states are often utilized for the purposes of reliability-based offshore design. Many methods have been proposed to estimate environmental contours of extreme sea states, including, ... -
Development of a Continuous Phytoplankton Culture System for Ocean Acidification Experiments.
(2014)Around one third of all anthropogenic CO2 emissions have been absorbed by the oceans, causing changes in seawater pH and carbonate chemistry. These changes have the potential to affect phytoplankton, which are critically ... -
Development of a Low-Cost Arduino-Based Sonde for Coastal Applications.
(2016)This project addresses the need for an expansion in the monitoring of marine environments by providing a detailed description of a low cost, robust, user friendly sonde, built on Arduino Mega 2560 (Mega) and Arduino Uno ...
