Abstract: The Leibniz Institute for Baltic Sea Research Warnemünde (IOW) maintains one of the longest continuous data series of marine observations, which began in the 1950s. Over the decades, the integration of evolving technologies and methodologies has played a crucial role in expanding the institute’s research capabilities. Since the turn of the millennium, the technological progress has accelerated exponentially, creating new opportunities for modern marine research. At the same time, climate change and other anthropogenic influences pose new challenges from which further research tasks arise. Addressing these challenges requires advances across several domains, including measurement technologies & instrumentation, modeling, bioinformatics and research data management. The IOW is committed to evolving its data management infrastructure in line with modern best practices, including the FAIR data principles and following community standards for data and metadata. One key element of this approach is IOW’s new database framework “MetaTransfer”. It is designed to connect metadata of the often heterogeneous data outputs from the various marine scientific disciplines by enriching the metadata with information about related datasets and the research environment. Moreover, it aims to simplify the metadata collection process for data creators. The poster presentation provides details on how this framework might be achieved. 1 NFDI4Biodiversity and NFDI4Earth are funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).
