Has anyone experienced this before? Publisher location seems irrelevant for a digital asset and defeats the purpose of a DOI, so my inclination is to push back and ask the publisher to justify this request. I suspect it's just about filling in a field in their citation system.<br><div><br></div>Any recommendations?<br><div><br></div>Wade Sheldon<br>GCE-LTER<br><div><br></div><br><div><br></div>-------- Forwarded Message --------<br>Subject: how to cite GCE data sets<br>Date: Wed, 18 Jan 2017 07:46:36 -0600<br>From: Pennings, Steven C <scpennin@Central.UH.EDU><br>To: 'Wade Sheldon' <sheldon@uga.edu><br><div><br></div><br><div><br></div>Hi Wade,<br>I cited a GCE data set as recommended<br><div><br></div>Li, S. 2016.
