Marine Microbial Biodiversity, Bioinformatics, Biotechnology Checklist

Abbreviation: Micro B3

General Information

The Micro B3 checklist is a multi-disciplinary standard developed by the Micro B3 Consortium for description of marine microbial sampling. Content of the standard is grouped into six categories covering various aspects of marine microbial sampling. These categories are environment, measurement, sampling, event, sample and organism. Full adoption of the standard allows generation of data records, which are MIxS compliant but also compliant to minimal reporting requirements of the oceanographic and marine biodiversity community, i.e. respectively the Common Data Index (CDI) and the OBIS schema, advancing the metadata interoperability across research domains. Nucleotide sequences of marine microbial samples described according to the Micro B3 checklist can be placed into a very rich environmental context. This checklist had originally been called the M2B3 checklist

	'description' has been modified:
		Before: The M2B3 consists of a Data Reporting Standard and Data Service Standard. The M2B3 Data Reporting Standard harmonises contextual data reporting associated with sampling for microbial organisms in a global network of marine stations. The M2B3 Reporting standard spans the biodiversity, molecular and oceanographic domains and adopts existing standards of each discipline. It represents a unique intersection of existing reporting requirements across all three domains. The Standard specifies descriptor usage and formats and indicates appropriate units, where applicable. 
The M2B3 Service Standard specifies service protocols and a minimal set of core interoperability descriptors, which are central to integration of data from independent resources and allow connection between diverse data across molecular, biodiversity and oceanographic domains. 

		After: The Micro B3 checklist is a multi-disciplinary standard developed by the Micro B3 Consortium for description of marine microbial sampling. Content of the standard is grouped into six categories covering various aspects of marine microbial sampling. These categories are environment, measurement, sampling, event, sample and organism. Full adoption of the standard allows generation of data records, which are MIxS compliant but also compliant to minimal reporting requirements of the oceanographic and marine biodiversity community, i.e. respectively the Common Data Index (CDI) and the OBIS schema, advancing the metadata interoperability across research domains. Nucleotide sequences of marine microbial samples described according to the Micro B3 checklist can be placed into a very rich environmental context.

European Nucleotide Archive
The European Nucleotide Archive (ENA) is a globally comprehensive data resource for nucleotide sequence, spanning raw data, alignments and assemblies, functional and taxonomic annotation and rich contextual data relating to sequenced samples and experimental design. Serving both as the database of record for the output of the world's sequencing activity and as a platform for the management, sharing and publication of sequence data, the ENA provides a portfolio of services for submission, data management, search and retrieval across web and programmatic interfaces. The ENA is part of the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration (INSDC), which comprises the DNA DataBank of Japan (DDBJ), the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), and GenBank at the NCBI. These three organizations exchange data on a daily basis.

PANGAEA - Data Publisher for Earth and Environmental Science
The information system PANGAEA is operated as an Open Access library aimed at archiving, publishing and distributing georeferenced data from earth system research. PANGAEA is a member of the ICSU World Data System (WDS).
