OA to international air pollution data The UN Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution (LRTAP) now includes a policy on OA to convention-collected data. From the January 17 report of the Executive Body on the convention:
There are a few exceptions beyond the vague deference to copyright: OA may be delayed if one of the parties can justify delay, and data centers may charge for access when requested datasets "are not readily available". (Thanks to Tomme Rosanne Young and Donat Agosti for the tip.) |
