When do we claim that a publication is IMBeR’s?
While IMBeR encourages all research which addresses questions falling under the IMBeR Science Plan and Implementation Strategy (2016-2025), we only claim a publication as being IMBeR’s when the publication would not have arisen without the involvement of IMBeR or being linked to an IMBeR “Activity”. These publications are categorised as either a Class 1 or Class 2 publications:
Class 1 publications
Specifically generated through/by/from/during IMBeR activities – for example, arising from IMBIZOs and IMBeR conferences such as the IMBeR open science meeting and the IMBeR West Pacific symposia and from the activities of the working groups, regional programmes and IMECaN.
Class 2 publications
On topics relevant to the IMBeR Science Plan that benefitted from some interaction with IMBeR or IMBeR activities, for example by IMBeR symposium attendees, past and present SSC members, working group, regional programme and endorsed project members, or national contacts.
