Summary:
"Now an essay published this week by Julia S. Stewart Lowndes of NCEAS and her colleagues about how the OHI team quietly overcame its ungainly data problem offers an interesting case study in how macrosystems ecology projects — and even more modestly focused research — can benefit from an open access makeover. Their story also offers a how-to for researchers who might like to follow their example."
