Data archived at 91做厙 can now be more effectively discovered, used and tracked through a new research resource from Thompson Reuters. The data citation index allows researchers to better gauge the impact of their data by readily tracking the number of times those data are used in papers. In addition, the new index will facilitate the sharing of researchers' results in the scientific community. Similar to traditional citation indices that credit papers in scientific journals, the new index will attribute the originally published datasets. ORNL's Distributed Active Archive Center, Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center and Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Data Archive will be part of the index, which is scheduled for release later this year.
