Good enough practices in scientific computing.
(2017)
Computers are now essential in all branches of science, but most researchers are never taught the equivalent of basic lab skills for research computing. As a result, data can get lost, analyses can take much longer than ...
Using ERDDAP to access tabular data. [Training video]
(U.S. Geological Survey, Woods Hole, MA, 2015)
This eleven-minute tutorial video demonstrates the utility of NOAA’s Environmental Research Division's Data Access Program (ERDDAP) service, and how to access and use it. ERDDAP is a free and open-source application used ...
Indigenous Data Governance: Strategies from United States Native Nations.
(2019)
Data have become the new global currency, and a powerful force in making decisions and wielding power. As the world engages with open data, big data reuse, and data linkage, what do data-driven futures look like for ...
Next-Generation Optical Sensing Technologies for Exploring Ocean Worlds—NASA FluidCam, MiDAR, and NeMO-Net.
(2019)
We highlight three emerging NASA optical technologies that enhance our ability
to remotely sense, analyze, and explore ocean worlds–FluidCam and fluid lensing,
MiDAR, and NeMO-Net. Fluid lensing is the first remote sensing ...
Conceptual Framework for Developing the Next Generation of Marine OBservatories (MOBs) for Science and Society.
(2018)
In the field of ocean observing, the term of “observatory” is often used without a unique
meaning. A clear and unified definition of observatory is needed in order to facilitate the
communication in a multidisciplinary ...
From Interoperability to Harmonization in Metadata Standardization: Designing an Evolvable Framework for Metadata Harmonization [Doctoral Thesis]
(KTH School of Computer Science and Communication, Stockholm, Sweden, 2010)
Metadata is an increasingly central tool in the current web environment, enabling large-scale, distributed management of resources. Recent years has seen a growth in interaction between previously relatively isolated ...
Harmonizing the Metadata Among Diverse Climate Change Datasets.
(2015)
One of the critical problems in the curation of research data is the harmonization of its internal metadata schemata. The value of harmonizing such data is well illustrated by the Berkeley Earth project, which successfully ...
Linking Capacity Development to GOOS Monitoring Networks to Achieve Sustained Ocean Observation.
(2018)
Developing enduring capacity to monitor ocean life requires investing in people and
their institutions to build infrastructure, ownership, and long-term support networks.
International initiatives can enhance access to ...
Uncertainty in Ocean-Color Estimates of Chlorophyll for Phytoplankton Groups.
(2017)
Over the past decade, techniques have been presented to derive the community structure of phytoplankton at synoptic scales using satellite ocean-color data. There is a growing demand from the ecosystem modeling community ...
The metagenomic data life-cycle: standards and best practices.
(2017)
Metagenomics data analyses from independent studies can only be compared if the analysis workflows are described in a
harmonized way. In this overview, we have mapped the landscape of data standards available for the ...
