earth-system-science-data
Use when targeting Earth System Science Data (ESSD) or deciding whether an earth-system dataset fits this venue. Encodes the journal's data-paper fit, the open-deposition-with-DOI requirement, quality and reuse-documentation bar, Copernicus house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Earth System Science Data (earth-system-science-data) ## Journal positioning Earth System Science Data (ESSD) is the Copernicus / European Geosciences Union venue for **data papers**: peer-reviewed articles whose primary product is an original, high-quality, openly deposited dataset of lasting value to earth-system science. The defining expectation is not a new scientific conclusion but a **reusable dataset**: the manuscript documents how the data were produced, calibrated, quality-controlled, and how others should reuse them, while the dataset itself lives in a FAIR public repository with its own persistent identifier (DOI). An analysis or interpretation paper that mines data toward a hypothesis, or a paper whose data are not openly and permanently available, is a fundamental misfit here. This skill is a **fit / venue-selection / re-framing** tool. It does not replace the journal's current author guidance. Before submitting, re-check the live ESSD / Copernicus author instructions and data policy. ## When to trigger - The author has produced an original dataset (observations, reanalysis, compilation, model output) and wants to publish it as a citable data paper rather than a rese

What does the earth-system-science-data skill do?
Use when targeting Earth System Science Data (ESSD) or deciding whether an earth-system dataset fits this venue. Encodes the journal's data-paper fit, the open-deposition-with-DOI requirement, quality and reuse-documentation bar, Copernicus house style, official-submission re-check, and desk-reject heuristics.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill earth-system-science-data --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
