Description
Book SynopsisScience is built on trust. The assumption is that scientists will conduct their work with integrity, honesty, and a strict adherence to scientific protocols. Written by geoscientists for geoscientists, Scientific Integrity and Ethics in the Geosciencesacquaints readers with the fundamental principles of scientific ethics and shows how they apply to everyday work in the classroom, laboratory, and field. Resources are provided throughout to help discuss and implement principles of scientific integrity and ethics. Volume highlights include: Examples of international and national codes and policiesExploration of the role of professional societies in scientific integrity and ethicsReferences to scientific integrity and ethics in publications and research dataDiscussion of science integrity, ethics, and geoethics in educationExtensive coverage of data applications Scientific Integrity and Ethics in the Geosciencesis a valuable resource for students, faculty, instructors, and scientists in
