ICOS Carbon Portal offers free access to high-quality and standardised greenhouse gas data, as well as to scientific and educational products and services. The Carbon Portal is a ‘one-stop shop’ for all ICOS data products. Carbon Portal manages data security, enforcement of the ICOS data policy, with user-friendly (and machine-friendly) internet- and other computer-network based interfaces. It organises long-term archiving of ICOS data products to guarantee their safe storage, future access and easy re-use. FAIR data handling is the key for the high ICOS data quality. ICOS has created a transparent, documented and reproducible process throughout the data life cycle: from the measurements at the station via the Thematic Centres and the ICOS Carbon Portal to the user. All data distributed from the stations and going through the Central Facilities, are distributed in Carbon Portal. We are following the international developments in FAIR data management to build interoperable systems and make ICOS data free available in a transparent way. The Carbon Portal is hosted by the Lund University in Sweden and Wageningen University in the Netherlands.

B2SHARE is a user-friendly, reliable and trustworthy way for researchers, scientific communities and citizen scientists to store and share small-scale research data from diverse contexts.

The basic principle in the Biocidal Products Regulation ((EU) No 528/2012 (BPR)) is that a biocidal product must be authorised before it can be made available on the market or used in the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland. The active substance is evaluated and, provided the criteria are fulfilled, is then approved in a specified product-type. The data on this page is active substance/product-type centric. The database includes active substances in the Review Programme, active substances not in the Review Programme as well as substances in Annex I of the BPR.

STOREDB provides infrastructure for sharing data and resources in radiation biology and epidemiology. It is a platform for the archiving and sharing of primary data and outputs of all kinds, including epidemiological and experimental data, from research on the effects of radiation. It also provides a directory of bioresources and databases containing information and materials that investigators are willing to share. STORE supports the creation of a radiation research commons.

The EMODnet Chemistry portal provides easy access to marine chemical data, standardised harmonized validated data collections and reliable data products, highly relevant to assess ecosystem status according to the Marine Strategy Framework Directive. Data on temporal and spatial distribution of marine litter, of the concentration of nutrients, organic matter, pesticides, heavy metals, radionuclides and antifoulants in the water column, in the sediment and in biota.
