Acknowledging Us
Users of IMOS data are required to clearly acknowledge the source material by including the following statement:
Data were sourced from Australia’s Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS) – IMOS is enabled by the National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS). It is operated by a consortium of institutions as an unincorporated joint venture, with the University of Tasmania as Lead Agent.
This short version can be used in a publication where space is limited:

Requirements
- The statement above is required over and above the use of in-text citations (i.e., it must be included in acknowledgements text). Correct acknowledgement and citation allow the IMOS Office to demonstrate impact, find uses, and increase recognition of the vital place the observing system has in marine and climate science.
