Individual skill
gcb-reporting-and-data-policy
Use when preparing the data availability statement and the data/code archive for a Global Change Biology (GCB) manuscript. GCB requires data and code to be archived in a public repository with a persistent DOI as a condition of publication, and "available on request" is not accepted. Prepares the deposit; it does not waive requirements.

# Reporting & Data Policy (gcb-reporting-and-data-policy)
GCB treats open data and code as a **condition of publication**, not a courtesy. Primary and secondary
data supporting the results must be **archived in a publicly accessible repository with a persistent
identifier (DOI)**, code/software likewise (e.g., Zenodo), and the manuscript must carry a **data
availability statement**. Crucially, **"available on request" is not accepted**. Build the deposit as
you go. Confirm current wording on the policy page before submission.
## When to trigger
- Writing the **data availability statement**
- Choosing repositories and minting DOIs for data and code
- Handling data that cannot be fully shared (sensitive species locations, third-party/licensed data)
- Final reporting checks before submission
