at ZALF

Since 2010, ZALF is publication agent as well as data centre and cooperates with DataCite and the German National Library of Science and Technology to register research data with digital object identifiers (DOI). Datasets with adequate metadata are published on the open data repository Open Research Data (http://www.open-research-data.de). The data management department encourages scientists to publish articles in data journals like Earth System Science Data (ESSD) which directly refers to the registered publicly accessible datasets on Open Research Data. In addition, ESSD offers open review. This means anyone can comment on submitted articles.

Since July, 2015, ZALF supports an Open Access policy which is based on a template of the Leibniz Association.
