• Follow the journal article model for listing citations under the references. For example, you can provide specific citations on your derived data product description for each source data set or data stream under the References. This will allow users to cite both the derived product as well as the source data set.
• During a submission of a derived data product, indicate the source data sets to the data center editors as such. They will make sure the source data are correctly assigned at the metadata level.
• In some data repositories (PANGAEA, ARM, Arctic Data Center) it is possible to add source DOIs in the source metadata as the related identifiers. Use the relations relations IsDerivedFrom, IsSourceOf, or isPartOf.
• When you relate all of the datasets in this manner, the metadata gets passed along to DataCite and Scholix, which persistently links those data products through DOI metadata and can help show reuse. Also OSTI is supporting this concept.
• All this will make the data citation metrics possible.
