# Earth System Science Data (earth-system-science-data)

## Journal positioning

Earth System Science Data (ESSD) is the Copernicus / European Geosciences Union venue for
**data papers**: peer-reviewed articles whose primary product is an original, high-quality,
openly deposited dataset of lasting value to earth-system science. The defining expectation
is not a new scientific conclusion but a **reusable dataset**: the manuscript documents how
the data were produced, calibrated, quality-controlled, and how others should reuse them,
while the dataset itself lives in a FAIR public repository with its own persistent
identifier (DOI). An analysis or interpretation paper that mines data toward a hypothesis,
or a paper whose data are not openly and permanently available, is a fundamental misfit
here. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the
journal's current author guidance. Before submitting, re-check the live ESSD / Copernicus
