#NowReading IPCC TG Data has published a paper discussing the implementation of #FAIR data principles in the IPCC process and how this can better support IPCC in its seventh cycle. “Implementing FAIR data principles in the IPCC seventh assessment cycle: Lessons learned and future prospects” discusses the implementation of FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) and open data principles in the context of IPCC’s work, highlighting successes and challenges. During IPCC’s sixth cycle, which concluded in 2023, efforts focused on curating and preserving digital products to make climate science more Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, & Reusable (FAIR). Key recommendations for the seventh assessment cycle (AR7) include better integration of digital curation in workflows, support and training for authors, standardization of data handling across working groups, and collaboration with external data providers and research organizations.
