A wide range of data templates are available for submitting data to the EarthChem Library.

Primary analytical data may be incorporated into EarthChem synthesis databases (e.g. PetDB) by EarthChem data managers if thematically appropriate.

Geochemistry Templates

Data templates are available for various data types such as bulk elemental analysis (majors, traces), bulk isotope analysis, mineral analysis (in-situ analysis), and melt inclusion analysis. If a template does not exist yet for your data type, please contact us at info@earthchem.org.

Geochronology

Geochronology data such as (U-Th)/He, U-Pb, Ar-Ar, cosmogenic nuclides, and U-series data can be added to the Geochron System for better discoverability and direct interfacing with your instrument.

To receive data curation services, a permanent archive for your dataset and to be issued a DOI, please submit your Geochron files to the EarthChem Library.
