Description
Results from a community survey among marine micropalaeontologists to develop guidelines to improve the reusability of marine microfossil assemblage datasets. This record contains a pdf of the survey questions (MiPaDataGuidelines_Google_Forms.pdf); anonymised survey responses (MiPaSurveyResponses.csv) and an overview of how the results were grouped (QuestionGrouping.csv). In addition, StatusLegacyData.csv presents the results of a first order analysis of how well datasets stored at PANGAEA.de conform to the guidelines derived from the survey response.
This record forms the basis of a manuscript in prep titled "Community guidelines to increase the reusability of marine microfossil assemblage data" that will be submitted to the Journal of Micropalaeontology. A full description of the survey methods is provided there. Code used to analyse the results is provided in the associated script.
