Welcome to the Preservation and Stewardship Cluster

The objective of the new Preservation and Stewardship Cluster is to support the long-term preservation of Earth system science data and information. This Cluster provides a forum for ESIP members to collaborate on data preservation issues.

To join the e-mail list for this cluster, visit | esip-preserve and submit a request to join.

Notes from the Interagency Forum on Data Preservation/LifecCycle/Stewardship, held Jan 8, 2009 at the ESIP Federation Meeting are available [here].
