Method for Preservation Clause Samples

Method for Preservation. The data will be retained for ten years after the end of the project in agreement with DFG regulations. This is ensured by utilization of the tape archives available at the local computing centers; the costs are covered by participating Universities. Beyond that, data used in publications will be made available to the public wherever the licenses allow this and the data are required to repeat the experiments. In contrast to the climate community, publication of model results from weather experiments is rather unusual and so far no suitable archive for multi-terabyte datasets is available. W2W will accompany the development of such an archive at the partner institution ZDV, JGU. In addition to that, services provided by local libraries at KIT9 and LMU10 will be used.
