This qualitative exploratory study probes the knowledge and attitudes of information science and environmental researchers in Turkey towards scientific data and information particularly in regards to sharing and preservation. Ten environmental scientists and two information scientists were interviewed. Results reveal that research data is stored mostly on personal computers. This raises two issues: organizational and technological sustainability. Environmental scientists in Turkey do not engage in data-intensive research. Data sharing is limited because of socio-cultural reasons. Although data collaboration is limited, there is an interest in international collaboration. According to the information scientists in Turkey, conversation on data management and data sharing has started hut only in academic circles. Data practices are not mandated by funding agencies. The skill sets of information scientists are not fully utilized. For both environmental and information scientists, there is a long way to go.

Data Management in Astrobiology: Challenges and Opportunities for an Interdisciplinary Community
Aydınoğlu, Arsev Umur; Malone, Jim (2014-06-01)
Data management and sharing are growing concerns for scientists and funding organizations throughout the world. Funding organizations are implementing requirements for data management plans, while scientists are establishing new infrastructures for data sharing. One of the difficulties is sharing data among a diverse set of research disciplines. Astrobiology is a unique community of researchers, containing over 110 different disciplines. The current study reports the results of a survey of data management p...
Proactive environmental strategy in a supply chain context: the mediating role of investments
Akın Ateş, Melek; Bloemhof, Jacqueline; van Raaij, Erik M.; WYNSTRA, Finn (2012-01-01)
There is a growing body of knowledge on the link between environmental management and supply chain management, but there is contradicting evidence on the impact of a proactive environmental strategy on environmental performance. Therefore, this paper investigates the impact of proactive environmental strategy on environmental performance as mediated by environmental investments. We also consider the antecedents of the adoption of proactive environmental strategy. We develop and test hypotheses, using data c...
Green STEM application for developing 6th graders’ awareness, knowledge and skills on heat insulation and sustainability
Sönmez Aydın, Ayşe; Teksöz, Gaye; Department of Science Education (2020-9)
In this study, it is aimed to determine the effect of environmental STEM application on students' environmental awareness, knowledge and scientific skills. Within the scope of the sixth grade science course, an E-STEM course was designed and implemented on the relationship between thermal insulation and the sustainable use of natural resources in line with engineering practices. 56 students attended the lesson, and the effectiveness of the lesson was measured using pre-post tests, experiment worksheet...
Environmental data gaps in Black Sea catchment countries: INSPIRE and GEOSS State of Play
Myroshnychenko, Volodymyr; Ray, Nicolas; Lehmann, Anthony; Giuliani, Gregory; Kıdeyş, Ahmet Erkan; Weller, Philip; Teodor, Dan (2015-02-01)
This paper presents the results of a large analysis of environmental data gaps in countries of the Black Sea catchment performed in the context of the FP7 enviroGRIDS project in 2010. We also assessed the level of compatibility of the data to the European directive establishing an Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the European Community (INSPIRE) and to the international standards of data interoperability as advocated by the Group on Earth Observations (GEO) and implemented in the Global Earth Obser...
Content analysis of physics education studies published in Turkish Science Education Journal from 2004 to 2011
Önder Çelikkanlı, Nuray; Oktay, Özlem; Eraslan, Funda; Gülçiçek, Çağlar; Göksu, Volkan; Kanlı, Uygar; Eryılmaz, Ali; Güneş, Bilal (2013-04-01)
This study investigates research trends in articles about physics education in Journal of Turkish Science Education (TUSED) by using content analysis method. There were 125 studies published between 2004 and 2011, and 46 studies related to physics education have been determined. The research trends in these 46 articles have been examined in terms of demographic properties of authors (gender, institution, number of authors, etc.), general themes and physics topics, research methods, sampling procedures and s...
