Abstract:
Multidisciplinary research projects bear a great potential for the exploration and understanding of complex interrelations e. g. between ecosystem and atmospheric processes. On the other hand, cooperating scientist often face the problem of finding effective yet time inexpensive ways of data and knowledge transfer between the individual working groups in order to maximize synergetic effects and consequently to succeed in research. Based on the experience within different multidisciplinary research projects, the authors introduce two different concepts for central data services and discuss the related advantages and disadvantages using the DFG research unit 402 and 816 as an exemplarily case. In general, it can be established that the required degree of interaction between the working group is a good indicator for choosing between the different central data service concepts.
