ERW Data Quarry Pipeline: Available and Forthcoming Datasets

Updated November 2026

The ERW Data Quarry gives researchers and practitioners access to a growing body of data for non-commercial research.

This page provides an up-to-date view of the datasets currently available on the platform, upcoming contributions, changes in participation, and how to request access to data for non-commercial use.

Requesting access

You can request access to datasets if you are exploring a non-commercial research question.

To do this:

  • Log in — Set up a Data Quarry user profile at data.cascadeclimate.org.
  • Review datasets — Dataset abstracts and variable coverage are posted in the Data Quarry catalog (Datasets menu at data.cascadeclimate.org).
  • Explore which specific variables are included — Looking for dissolution, soil, feedstock, biomass, weather, or agronomic variables? Dataset coverage varies by project; available variables are listed by project.
  • Submit a research proposal — Request the dataset(s) most relevant to your analysis using the Request Form linked to each dataset in the catalog.

Note that all health and safety data is already publicly available via the Data Quarry CDRXIV channel, which is also where full datasets will be available upon inclusion in an academic publication.

If you have any additional questions, please reach out to our team at [email protected], and we will be happy to assist.

Upcoming contributions

The Data Quarry is a voluntary data-sharing effort, and participation evolves over time as projects progress. Submission timing can vary for multiple reasons, including lab turnaround times, farmer consent processes, and completion of project data packaging. We use broad timing windows to reflect that variability. Below is a pipeline of commercial1 data-sharing partners who have formally committed to sharing data via the Data Quarry system.

Footnotes

  1. Though they are not reflected in the pipeline above, we also welcome academic field trial datasets. We expect to host academic field trial datasets from our Field Data Partnership Grants’ deployments at academic research stations, and welcome any others who wish to leverage the Data Quarry platform to share ERW deployment datasets prior to publication. Reach out to [email protected] if you are interested in sharing your field trial data. Back to text
  2. Commitments are labeled as “overdue” if they are more than 6 months past their initially committed data-sharing timeline, but the partners continue to communicate and work with us on how to follow through on that commitment. Commitments with 3 or more months of unexplained delay and/or 3 or more follow-ups without a response are labeled as “lapsed,” indicating that data sharing to the Data Quarry is no longer certain. Contributors are removed from the contributors list if a contribution is no longer expected because no ERW deployment data will be generated. Back to text
