Welcome to the NCEAS Data Repository. This repository contains information

| 49 |

about the research data sets collected and collated within or under the
|
| 50 |
|
auspices of NCEAS' funded activities. Some of the data are synthetic
|
| 51 |
|
data sources that originated from the efforts of many contributors, while
|
| 52 |
|
others might have originated from a single investigator. Credit for the
|
| 53 |
|
datasets in this repository goes to the investigators who collected the data,
|
| 54 |
|
and also to the NCEAS working groups and scientists who compiled the data
|
| 55 |
|
for synthetic purposes. See each data package for a list of the people and
|
| 56 |
|
institutions involved.

Adjusted the text on the NCEAS repository page. Changed the project list
so that it now displays short title but uses the long title in the
entry. This was doen because the long titles were far too long to display
decently in the list (the box scrolled way off the right of the page).
