2. M. Stockhause et al. The purpose of Long-term archival (LTA) and the IPCC DDC is to provide stable data for long-term interdisciplinary (re-)use: permanent and persistent data access stable and complete data well-documented high-quality (for acceptance) citable data entities (for credit) 2 Long-Term Archival at DKRZ (1) 09.-11.12.2014 DKRZ LTA, ESGF Conference 2014

3. M. Stockhause et al. 3 Long-Term Archival at DKRZ (2)  Long-term archive for climate data, esp. Earth System Model data  IPCC Data Distribution Centre (IPCC-DDC) for climate model output: http://www.ipcc-data.org http://www.ipcc-data.org  DOI Data publisher since 2004 (1 st DOI in the DataCite catalog 18.03.2004: doi:10.1594/WDCC/EH4_OPYC_SRES_A2 )doi:10.1594/WDCC/EH4_OPYC_SRES_A2 World Data Center for Climate (WDCC) at DKRZ: 09.-11.12.2014 DKRZ LTA, ESGF Conference 2014

Questions to be solved: Who is the repository contact? How to identify? Is a mapping needed for DRS_ids? How to access? Who is the data creator? 2 Citation Information DKRZ LTA, ESGF Conference 2014

5. M. Stockhause et al. 5 Requirements for LTA: Identification (1)  Reliable identification of data and metadata objects by PID and DRS_id (and of persons by ORCID): Use of controlled vocabulary (CV) for DRS components, e.g. institute, model, experiment Consistent ESGF data base over time: persistence of metadata and strict versioning Links provided between data and external metadata  Verification of data and metadata objects by MD5 checksums 09.-11.12.2014 DKRZ LTA, ESGF Conference 2014 See also: Data Citation Principles at https://www.force11.org/datacitationhttps://www.force11.org/datacitation

6. M. Stockhause et al. 6 Requirements for LTA: QC (2) Quality control information and data citations ESGF published together with the data:  Quality Control: When? - Quality control to be performed as early as possible and as detailed as affordable, e.g.: Check at least DRS conformance prior to ESGF publication How? - Improve the operability of the QC2 tool  Citation of data: Collection and ESGF publication of author lists, titles etc. together with the data If operable: assign a PID to a citation entity 09.-11.12.2014 DKRZ LTA, ESGF Conference 2014

7. M. Stockhause et al. 7 Requirements for LTA: Organizational (3)  Operable infrastructure with defined stable interfaces are required (to ESGF and external repositories)  Introduce a Data Management Plan defining the data workflow including quality procedures and ESGF data node manager commitments on e.g. versioning.  Definition/Implementation of a core data subset to prioritize data replication and LTA, e.g. use ESGF product facet  Improved interaction with data creators (In CMIP5 they were approached multiple times from project manager, CIM, Quality/Citation.) 09.-11.12.2014 DKRZ LTA, ESGF Conference 2014
