Geosciences Open Science Ecosystem

The Geosciences Open Science Ecosystem (GEO OSE) program aims to promote open science practices in the geosciences by supporting the development of innovative open science approaches, community-building, and educational activities. The program seeks to advance geosciences research and education by leveraging expanding information resources and computing capabilities. Key aspects of the program include: • Community/cohort building around defining a shared vision for open science and adopting open science practices within and across geoscience domains. • Development and implementation of open science approaches that accelerate geoscience research discovery via seamless workflows connecting data, software, physical collections, and computing. • Educational activities that instill open science practices and broaden adoption of cyberinfrastructure resources to reduce barriers to geoscience research and education. The program supports a wide range of activities, including community-building, research, and education, with the goal of strengthening the capacity of current and future geoscientists to access, utilize, and collaborate within the growing ecosystem of open science resources.
