The Open Phytoliths Community  is curated by the members of the International Committee on Open Phytolith Science (ICOPS) . Each time a Zenodo user wants to add a record into the community, an email is sent to the curators that will decide whether to include the record or not.

Only records that may be relevant to the Phytolith research should be included in this community. This could be open raw data, open code, open methods and other open research outputs. It could also be conference presentations and training materials.

The Community curators are not able to edit records, therefore they may ask the corresponding authors to modify the record metadata, when necessary, to provide the readers/users with more detailed information according to the FAIR principles of Open Science.

If after its acceptance, a record is subsequently found not to be compliant, we reserve the right to remove it from the community.

The curation team is reachable through the following email address for further clarification or information: open.phytoliths@gmail.com
