IAM_COMPACT_D3.7_Open_Science_Protocols_update

This deliverable contains updates to and expansion of deliverable D3.6 – Open Science Protocols (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.10464844). It includes: (a) a brief summary of the state-of-art of open science practices; (b) a discussion of the results of a qualitative and quantitative survey that was conducted with all modelling teams from the 1st modelling cycle, and which gathers insights, feedback, and suggestions for the operationalisation of open science principles in the project; (c) the updated Open Science Protocol for IAM COMPACT, which aims to be used in the 2nd Policy Response Mechanism cycle; and (d) suggestions to boost the dissemination and comprehension of the protocol. The updated protocol aims at the integration of the FAIR and TRUST principles in all project activities and by all consortium partners to promote the smooth interconnection of the models and multi-model exercises, and transparently manage the produced outcomes. To that aim, it details clear steps and suggests useful open-source platforms and tools for the different tasks.
