International Ice Core Data Cooperative

摘要ATM-9809463 Steig，Eric J.科罗拉多大学标题：国际冰芯数据合作 过去几十年的冰芯钻探从地球仪的各个地点获得了前所未有的大量高质量数据。 然而，冰芯中的数据访问和数据质量的一致性仍然是这些重要数据在古环境研究中的关键问题的广泛应用的障碍。 国际冰芯数据合作组织（IICDC）是向世界数据中心提交冰芯数据的主要联络点。 它成功地获得了冰芯数据集，并向社区提供这些数据集，并帮助建立了数据管理和存档的积极先例，包括特别努力适当地表彰原始调查人员的工作。 该奖项支持进一步改善科学界获得冰芯数据的情况。 该项目将特别重视完成较老的深冰岩芯数据集，全面收集浅冰岩芯、雪坑和气象数据，并通过格式标准化确保易于使用。 一个主要目标是建立一个关系数据库，允许在共同的时间尺度上比较冰芯数据。

Abstract ATM-9809463 Steig, Eric J. University of Colorado Title: The International Ice Core Data Cooperative Ice-core drilling over the past few decades have yielded an unprecedented volume of high-quality data from sites around the globe. Yet, data access and consistency of data quality in ice cores remains a hindrance to the widespread application of these important data to crucial questions in paleoenvironmental research. The International Ice Core Data Cooperative (IICDC) was established as the main contact point for the submission of ice core data to the World Data Centers. It has been successful in obtaining ice core data sets and making them available to the community and has helped to establish positive precedents for data management and archival, including a particular effort to properly credit original investigators for their work. This award supports further improvement in the availability of ice-core data to the scientific community. The project will place particular emphasis on completing older deep ice core data sets and on obtaining a comprehensive collection of shallow core, snow pit and meteorological data, and on ensuring ease of use through standardization of formats. A major goal is to establish a relational database that allows for comparison of ice core data on common timescales.
