Data sharing  and reproducibility of the results

ChatGPT:

Data and reproducibility of results are also important requirements for papers submitted to respected journals in ocean science:

Data availability: The data used to support the results should be made available, either as supplementary material or by providing access to a repository.

Data quality: The data should be of high quality, properly documented, and adequately described in the paper.

Reproducibility: The results should be reproducible, either through the provision of code or by clear documentation of the methods.

Transparency: The methods and analysis should be transparent and clearly described, allowing other researchers to understand and potentially replicate the results.

These requirements serve to ensure that the results of the research can be validated and build upon by the scientific community, advancing our understanding of ocean science.

Here are several respected journals in ocean science that have clear statements about requirements for data and reproducibility of results:


Nature Communications: The journal requires that data underlying the findings be made publicly available, with the exception of rare cases where privacy or confidentiality concerns apply. The authors are also expected to provide sufficient detail in the methods section to allow others to reproduce the results.


PLOS ONE: The journal requires that all data and materials necessary to reproduce the results be made publicly available. The authors are also expected to provide a detailed description of the methods and protocols used in the study.


Scientific Data: The journal focuses on publishing high-quality and well-documented datasets in ocean science. The authors are required to provide a detailed description of the methods used to acquire and process the data, as well as provide access to the data through a public repository.


Progress in Oceanography: The journal encourages the use of open-source software and the sharing of data and code to allow others to validate the results. The authors are expected to provide a detailed description of the methods and data used, and to make the data available through a public repository.


Limnology and Oceanography: The journal encourages the sharing of data and software to promote the transparency and reproducibility of the results. The authors are expected to provide a detailed description of the methods and data used, and to make the data available through a public repository.
