Geoscientific instrumentation, methods and data systems

期刊简介：Geoscientific Instrumentation, Methods and Data Systems (GI) is an open-access interdisciplinary electronic journal for swift publication of original articles and short communications in the area of geoscientific instruments. It covers three main areas: (i) atmospheric and geospace sciences, (ii) earth science, and (iii) ocean science. A unique feature of the journal is the emphasis on synergy between science and technology that facilitates advances in GI. These advances include but are not limited to the following:concepts, design, and description of instrumentation and data systems;retrieval techniques of scientific products from measurements;calibration and data quality assessment;uncertainty in measurements;newly developed and planned research platforms and community instrumentation capabilities;major national and international field campaigns and observational research programs;new observational strategies to address societal needs in areas such as monitoring climate change and preventing natural disasters;networking of instruments for enhancing high temporal and spatial resolution of observations.GI has an innovative two-stage publication process involving the scientific discussion forum Geoscientific Instrumentation, Methods and Data Systems Discussions (GID), which has been designed to do the following:foster scientific discussion;maximize the effectiveness and transparency of scientific quality assurance;enable rapid publication;make scientific publications freely accessible.

【译文】这是一本开放获取的多学科电子期刊，名为《地球科学仪器、方法和数据系统》（GI），旨在快速发表该领域原创文章和简报。它涵盖了三个主要领域：（i）大气和地球空间科学，（ii）地球科学，（iii）海洋科学。该期刊的独特之处在于强调科学和技术之间的协同作用，以促进地球科学仪器（GI）的进步。这些进步包括但不限于以下方面：仪器和数据系统的概念、设计和描述；从测量中提取科学产品的技术；校准和数据质量评估；测量的不确定性；新开发和研究平台以及社区仪器能力；主要的国家和国际现场战役和观测研究项目；针对社会需求（如监测气候变化和预防自然灾害）的新观测策略；通过联网仪器提高观测的高时间和空间分辨率。GI有一个创新的两个阶段出版流程，包括科学讨论论坛《地球科学仪器、方法和数据系统讨论》（GID），该论坛旨在以下方面：促进科学讨论；最大化科学质量保证的有效性和透明度；实现快速出版；使科学出版物免费可获取。
