PANGAEA XML schema

Field names as given in the PANGAEA Extensible Markup Language (XML) schema can be used for specific queries using the PANGAEA search engine. Queries are not case sensitive and can be combined by boolean operators. A blank is equivalent to AND, use the minus sign (-) to exclude specifications. See also the Help function of PangaVista.
Not all fields are searchable this way (e.g., numeric fields aren't). For some fields a different syntax is required. "attribute" and "reference" need to be searched using the actual names of attributes or the relation type, e.g. "relatedto:".
Search examples:
- data sets with a specific parameter could be found by using e.g.
- data sets with a specific event event:64-474
- data sets of a certain author in the citation citation:author:schumacher
- all data sets of project EPOCA project:epoca
- data sets following two queries combined by boolean operators
- keyword radiocarbon in related to linked reference AND published via PANGAEA in the year 2000 relatedto:radiocarbon citation:year:2000
- keyword radiocarbon in related to linked reference OR published via PANGAEA in the year 2000 relatedto:radiocarbon or citation:year:2000
- keyword radiocarbon in related to linked reference and NOT published via PANGAEA in the year 2000 relatedto:radiocarbon -citation:year:2000
