  • Interactive Journal Concept for Improved Scientific Publishing and Quality Assurance 105
    Interactive journal concept for improved scientific publishing and quality assurance 105 Learned Publishing (2004)17, 105–113 Interactive ntroduction and motivation journal concept A large proportion of scientific publi- cations are careless, useless or false, I and inhibit scholarly communication and scientific progress. This statement may for improved sound provocative, but unfortunately is not an exaggeration. The spectacular recent cases of scientific fraud (e.g. Nature 2003:422, 92–3; Nature scientific 2002:419, 419–21; Science 2003:299, 31; Science 2002:298, 961) are only the tip of the iceberg. Many scientific papers fail to provide sufficiently accurate and detailed publishing and information to ensure that fellow research- ers can efficiently repeat the experiments or calculations and directly follow the line of quality assurance arguments leading to the presented con- clusions.

  • Ocean Data Publication Cookbook
    Manuals and Guides 64 Ocean Data Publication Cookbook UNESCO Manuals and Guides 64 Ocean Data Publication Cookbook UNESCO 2013 IOC Manuals and Guides 64 Version 1 March 2013 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This “Cookbook” has been written for data managers and librarians who are interested in assigning a permanent identifier to a dataset for the purposes of publishing that dataset online and for the citation of that dataset within the scientific literature. A formal publishing process adds value to the dataset for the data originators as well as for future users of the data. Value may be added by providing an indication of the scientific quality and importance of the dataset (as measured through a process of peer review), and by ensuring that the dataset is complete, frozen and has enough supporting metadata and other information to allow it to be used by others. Publishing a dataset also implies a commitment to persistence of the data and allows data producers to obtain academic credit for their work in creating the datasets. One form of persistent identifier is the Digital Object Identifier (DOI). A DOI is a character string (a "digital identifier") used to provide a unique identity of an object such as an electronic document. Metadata about the object is stored in association with the DOI name and this metadata may include a location where the object can be found. The DOI for a document is permanent, whereas its location and other metadata may change. Referring to an online document by its DOI provides more stable linking than simply referring to it by its URL, because if its URL changes, the publisher need only update the metadata for the DOI to link to the new URL.

Mitchell1 Received: 10 September 2018 / Published online: 26 May 2020 © The Author(s) 2020 Abstract Oceanography and marine geosciences are closely related subjects, though they have had difering infuences. The UK, which has experienced the fnancial benefts of North Sea oil and gas, while also having an extensive fshing industry and a science base linked to other English-speaking countries and European countries, potentially illustrates some changing infuences and collaborative tendencies well. In this article, diferences in article publication rates and collaborative tendencies, both globally and for the UK, are exam- ined using the Web of Science™, Scopus™ and Georef™ for the period 1946–2018. The results show that publication rates of global oceanography articles rose exponentially faster than all global scientifc publishing from the mid-1960s to 1980. Subsequently, the expo- nential rate of increase slowed though has remained faster than global science publishing. Global Marine Geoscience publication rates increased into the late 1980s, but have since declined. UK oceanography has roughly followed global trends, though its share of global oceanographic publishing declined from 28% in the 1950s to 8% in 2018.

Received: 7 April 2020; Accepted: 25 May 2020; Published: 29 May 2020 Abstract: Modern socio-economic development and climate prediction depend greatly on the application of ocean big data. With the accelerated development of ocean observation methods and the continuous improvement of the big data science, the challenges of multiple data sources and data diversity have emerged in the ocean field. As a result, the current data magnitude has reached the terabyte scale. Currently, the traditional theoretical foundation and technical methods have their inherent limitations and demerits that cannot satisfied the temporal and spatial attributes of the current ocean big data. Numerous scholars and countries were involved in ocean big data research. To explore the focus and current status, and determine the topics of research on bursts and acquisition of trend related to ocean big data, 400 articles between 1990 and 2019 were collected from the “Web of Science.” Combined with visualization software CiteSpace, bibliometrics method and literature combing technology, the pivotal literature related to ocean big data, including significant level countries, institutions, authors, journals and keywords were recognized.
