ABSTRACT Recently, data statements have been required in hydrological manuscripts. Authors are usually confused by different data management policies. Thus, a frequent response is to write down “data available upon request from the corresponding author”. Such a simplified response may lead to dormancy or permanent loss of data. We present an example of data management from a published hydrological modelling study. We started from figures with complete scientific stories in the publication and traced backwards to find relevant source data through workflows (linking). In this manner, the source data can be identified (archiving) and preserved (hosting). Such simple practices of data linking, archiving and hosting can rescue data and require only limited effort by the authors. We suggest that this data rescue process(es) should become routine in the scientific publication process. The data rescued with workflows can significantly improve the research transparency and reusability, which leads to a fairer and more open culture in hydrology.

手稿中的数据拯救：一个水文模型研究实例

摘要 最近，水文手稿中需要数据说明。作者通常对不同的数据管理政策感到困惑。因此，一个常见的反应是写下“根据通讯作者的要求可获得的数据”。这种简化的响应可能会导致数据休眠或永久丢失。我们展示了一个来自已发表的水文建模研究的数据管理示例。我们从出版物中包含完整科学故事的数字开始，并通过工作流程（链接）向后追溯以找到相关的源数据。通过这种方式，可以识别（归档）和保存（托管）源数据。这种简单的数据链接、归档和托管实践可以挽救数据，并且只需要作者有限的努力。我们建议这种数据拯救过程应该成为科学出版过程中的例行程序。通过工作流拯救的数据可以显着提高研究透明度和可重用性，从而形成更公平、更开放的水文学文化。
