What is data publication?Why making a distinction between data publication and a manuscript?- Authorship and acknowledgement:
- often the data authors and paper authors overlap, but it is not always like that
- acknowledging contributions of scientists, who generated the data, but did not contribute to the interpretation or manuscript writing
- FAIR data principles
- Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability and Reusability: these are easier to guarantee in data repositories than in journal publishers
- Data publishers: focus on metatadata
What isn't data publication?- Data publication isn’t adding a data table as a supplement to a published scientific paper. Often these are in the form of xlsx file or table in pdf. If the paper is not open access, the supplement isn't open access either. The dataset isn't citable!
- Data publication isn’t sharing data at MOSAiC Central Storage (MCS).
- Data publication isn't a statement in the paper "Data used for this manuscript were uploaded to PANGAEA and will be available soon."
What is data publication?- Data publication is a published data set or data collection equipped with a complete set of metadata. It is fully citable by having a title, authors, abstract and a persistent identifier (usually DOI). It can have but need not have a reference to a scientific paper publication.
