Dear Colleagues

We are pleased to open registration for the 2017/2018 DataONE Webinar 
Series.
The DataONE Webinar Series is designed to engage participants in 
relevant and cutting-edge topics within the Earth and environmental 
sciences. Presented by the community for the community, join us for 
discussions on topics ranging from open science, data management, and 
achieving innovative science through shared data and ground-breaking 
tools. Webinars are free to attend and are recorded for later viewing, 
including a web-based forum for continued discussion.

Please join us for a webinar on “*Enabling FAIR Data*” presented by 
*Shelley Stall*, Director for AGU Programs, American Geophysical Union.
Tuesday September 12th at 0900 am Pacific Time, 1200 noon Eastern Time

Register now via:

*Abstract:*

Open, accessible, and high-quality data along with related data products 
and software are critical to the integrity of published research. They 
ensure transparency and support reproducibility and are necessary for 
accelerating the advancement of science. In many cases, the data are 
one-time observations that cannot be repeated. Unfortunately, not all 
key data are saved and even when they are, their curation is uneven and 
discovery is difficult, thus making it difficult for other researchers 
to understand and use the data sets.

To address this critical need, a coalition of groups representing the 
international Earth and space science community, convened by the 
American Geophysical Union (AGU), will develop standards that connect 
researchers, publishers, and data repositories in the Earth and space 
sciences to enable FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, and 
reusable) data – a concept first developed by Force11.org 
<http://Force11.org> – on a large scale. We discuss the project 
objectives, timeline, and how you and your organization can be involved.
