A central goal of the IsoBank project is to closely coordinate the development of the data repository with input from the data generating facilities and the research communities for which stable isotope data is a crucial component of their work. As such, the Isobank project is organized into an executive committee, which sets the overall direction of the project and oversees the technical development of IsoBank infrastructure, and a number of disciplinary area sub-committees with responsibility for providing input on data structure, metadata requirements, quality assessment and other aspects of the IsoBank development process. Three of these committees focus on research areas where stable isotope data is generated and used widely, and one committee is responsible for assisting the project in understanding and representing the quality assessment and quality control processes used in generating stable isotope data, and in otherwise assisting the project in coordinating with data generation facilities.
The sections below list the current composition of these committees. Committee membership will rotate in future and past contributions will be recognized here.
