Frances Lightsom started her career as an oceanographer. Then she found delight in data.
FAIR data (findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable)
Finding Harmony in FAIRness
The lack of consistency among different approaches for assessing how well digital data objects meet the FAIR principles makes it difficult to compare assessment results across tools and systems.
The Art of Scientific Curation
Scientific content curation provides users across diverse disciplines and levels of experience with a valuable means of accessing relevant and reliable information amid the growing data landscape.
We Need a Better Way to Share Earth Observations
A more accessible, open data-sharing infrastructure will engage a broader community of contributors, helping to develop satellite data products that benefit Earth science research and applications.
Open and Fair Data in Tropical Forests
People who gather ground data on tropical forests are highly disadvantaged compared to the users of such data. A new paper suggests long-term collaborations as a path forward.
Climate Data You Can Trust
Creating, curating, and developing the repository of climate data that underlies the U.S. National Climate Assessments requires the ongoing efforts of hundreds of experts.
Advancing FAIR Data in Earth, Space, and Environmental Science
The Enabling FAIR Data project has brought together a broad spectrum of Earth, space, and environmental science leaders to ensure that data are findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable.
Enabling FAIR Data Across the Earth and Space Sciences
Data experts from publishers, repositories, and other organizations met last month to kick off a project to promote open and Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable (FAIR) data principles.
AGU Marks Peer Review Week
AGU is committed to assessing and improving the peer review process through various new and recent initiatives.
Enabling Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable Data
AGU is convening a partnership in the Earth and space science community to develop the standards to connect researchers, publishers, and data repositories.
