The IMLGS is a collaboration between NCEI and multiple institutions (some supported by NSF) and government agencies, created by the institutions to offer common data about, and discovery/access to geological samples in their sample repository collections. The purpose of the IMLGS is to promote new research on existing samples. The database is maintained by NCEI under the guidance of a Curators Consortium, composed of representatives from the partner institutions. abstract: The Byrd Polar and Climate Research Center (BPCRC) Sediment Core Repository operated by the Ohio State University is a partner in the Index to Marine and Lacustrine Geological Samples (IMLGS) database, contributing information to the IMLGS to help researchers discover geological samples curated in their facility. The partner repository may also send related data, documents, and imagery to NCEI for long-term archive, but the originating institution is the definitive source of information related to their sample collection. The BPCRC sediment core repository archives marine and lake sediment samples collected from the Arctic Ocean and the Eurasian Arctic margin on U.S. National Science Foundation Office of Polar Programs (NSF-OPP) and Office of Naval Research (ONR) -sponsored projects since 1992. purpose: The BPCRC sediment core collection is maintained for Arctic marine geological and paleoclimatic research. The purpose of adding information about the collection to the IMLGS is to promote new research on existing samples. credit: Cores were collected with support from NSF-OPP and ONR. status:
