The presentations from the European Dataverse Workshop 2020 are now published in a new issue of the Septentrio Conference Series: https://doi.org/10.7557/scs.2020.2.

Good news at the close of 2019: DataverseNO (https://dataverse.no/) has been selected as one of 12 repositories to get support from FAIRsFAIR (https://www.fairsfair.eu/) to improve its level of interoperability (https://www.fairsfair.eu/application-results-open-call-data-repositories). We are pleased to see that also two other Dataverse repositories are joining us in this effort: Data Inra and Data Science Po.

We are looking forward to working together with the FAIRsFAIR community on implementing the  FAIR principles for research data (https://www.go-fair.org/fair-principles/).

UiT The Arctic University of Norway is organizing a workshop on Dataverse on January 23-24, 2020. For more information, please see the workshop webpage: https://site.uit.no/dataverseno/european-dataverse-workshop-2020/.

DataverseNO are welcoming the University of Bergen as a new partner institution. With their own institutional repository for open research data – UiB Open Research Data – UiB can now offer their researchers an infrastructure which increases the chances for citations, makes their research more visible, and improves their Open Science skills.

DataverseNO just reached dataset #500! Congratulations to Carlos Aizprua (NTNU), Cesar Witt (University of Lille), Ståle Johansen (NTNU), and Diego Barba (Petroamazonas), who became number 500 with their dataset “Replication Data for: Cenozoic stages of forearc evolution following the accretion of a sliver from the Late Cretaceous-Caribbean Large Igneous Province (CLIP): SW Ecuador-NW Peru” – https://doi.org/10.18710/BYZIZX.

Together with TROLLing, DataverseNO is contributing to the Social Sciences & Humanities Open Cloud (SSHOC). More info here.

We congratulate TGO on the first dataset (https://doi.org/10.18710/7BFJQQ) in this collection, which will include the long-time geophysical series of measurements that the University of Tromsø took over responsibility for in 1972. Among other things, TGO monitors of the upper part of the Earth’s atmosphere – the ionosphere – with its microwave radar in Ramfjordmoen East of Tromsø. This series of measurements was started in 1932 and is one of the world’s oldest in its kind. With this publication, TGO has started its work to make this series of measurements more discoverable and easily accessible to all.

Hans Chr. Eilertsen, Ulf Normann, and Rahman Mankettikkara from UiT The Arctic University of Norway have just published a new dataset in UiT Open Research Data: Hydrographic data from Northern Norwegian fjords – 2010 https://doi.org/10.18710/PPIVEO. The dataset is part of  a larger time series in the NMDC Node UiT, havervested i.a. by the Norwegian Marine Data Centre (NMDC).

This dataset also is dataset no. 200 in DataverseNO!

Congrats!

UiT welcomes NMBU as a partner institution of DataverseNO. We are looking forward to cooperating with one of the leading research institutions in Norway on archiving and sharing open research data from HE institutions in Norway.
