Publishing at the UFZ

The publications of all UFZ staff members, which were produced during their scientific work at the UFZ, are compiled under the main responsibility of the library and prepared for publication on the internet. Through data maintenance processes within our central publication management, we can ensure that your bibliographic data are subjected to extensive quality checks, standardization and validation.

By enriching the bibliographic data with structural data from our center, your own publication lists but also the lists for the department and all projects are available to you at any time.

Publications that originated before the time at the UFZ are not included in this directory. Please also note that poster contributions, patents and blog contributions, among others, are also not recorded (see publication guideline).

Based on the publication directory, the publication lists of the POF pages are created. The directory is also used to create the publication lists of the department homepage. Furthermore, the publication directory forms the basis for various evaluations.

Publication guideline

Publications by UFZ scientists should be clearly attributable to the UFZ. This ensures that the publications of the authors of the UFZ in institutional and personalized performance comparisons (rankings), external reporting requirements and internal monitoring in connection with performance indicators are recorded correctly and completely.

The publication guideline applies to all employees of the UFZ, as well as to guests whose publications were produced during a stay at the UFZ.
