Summary
In 2010 the group “M&D” became the fourth department “data management” at DKRZ, being in charge for the WDCC, consortial simulations and a long-term archiving service. DKRZ participates in the Metafor project, which created a Common Information Model. The model describes climate data and the models that produce it in a standard way. In 2010 DKRZ informed the public actively about its work. Apart from the participation in public events DKRZ organized own conferences.
