Uncertainties associated with lack of synoptic data and marine ecosystem baseline measurements act only as
motivators to advance our research.
If our disciplines are of such relevance to societal challenges, and if Open Science feeds the need for impact,
why do we adopt a ”wait and see” attitude in the face of scientific publishing ”uncertainties” ?
UNCERTAINTY Paradox
