The Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) is a collaborative, international project to address pressing scientific questions in the central Arctic. The project’s success, and its ultimate impact on science and society, relies upon professional coordination and data sharing across the participants. A transparent Data Policy is essential to achieve MOSAiC science objectives, to facilitate collaboration, and to enable broad use and impact of the MOSAiC data legacy.

Objective of the Data Policy

The purpose of this Data Policy is to codify the goals and principles of MOSAiC’s research data life-cycle from production, documentation, sharing, usage and re-usage. This ensures that common procedures for data gathering, archiving and publication, as well as metadata and quality management are commonly implemented. By participating in the MOSAiC project, all members of the MOSAiC consortium agree to and comply with this Data Policy. By doing so, participants ensure that MOSAiC is a successful and resource-effective research project that also supports data accessibility, interoperability and re-usage following the FAIR data principles.

This policy aims to:

  1. Ensure proper storage, backup and archiving of MOSAiC data in a central system.
  2. Promote the visibility and accessibility of MOSAiC data for scientific and other applications.
  3. Ensure the fair and equitable use of MOSAiC data and uphold the rights of individual scientists and institutions.
  4. Enable the organized and timely analysis of the data.
  5. Encourage the rapid publication and dissemination of scientific data, results and knowledge, to support the involvement of a broad user community.
