In line with Open Science practices, it is desirable that, up to the time of publication of the article, the data, methods, program codes, images, videos, or other materials supporting the article be available through open access in a Data Repository. Exceptions are allowed in cases of legal and ethical issues. As part of good practices, the data should be deposited in a single repository. In selecting the data repository, check for its reliability, reputation, accessibility, and visibility, and if it is affiliated with recognized institutions. Check if it is aligned with the FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable) principles. RBCS accepts articles with their data deposited in the SciELO database or in other servers established for the purpose of deposit of research data related to soil science. Options for repositories directed to soil science can be accessed through the link: https://www.re3data.org. The Data Repository where the data are hosted must be cited in the text in accordance with the Guide to citing research data, preferably in the methodological section, included in the list of references and in the “Availability of Research Data” section.
