Kernel Metadata Declaration — on demand

ISO 26324 asks a DOI Registration Agency to produce a Kernel Metadata Declaration for every DOI it issues. Give any DOI: its public record becomes a record in the Smart Scholars DOI Metadata Format 1.0, checked against every rule, and declared as the Kernel XML.

Reads the DOI's public Crossref record; nothing is stored. Until Smart Scholars is accredited, every Declaration is marked as a draft in the XML itself.

✓ Meets every rule of the format

The record below is complete and every controlled value is a DOI Attribute Value Set 2.3 spelling. The Declaration on the right follows DOIMetadataKernel.xsd element by element.

        "value": "Morphometric analysis of Chhoti Koli Sindh watershed was carried out using geospatial technique. The outcome revealed that the entire study area has dendritic drainage pattern with uniform lithology. Stream length and mean stream length data also reaffirm uniform lithology and gentle slope. The low drainage density of watershed indicates less surface runoff. The morphometric analysis also indicates that the area is least susceptible to erosion. The bifurcation ratio value is less, which indicates that the present area has not under gone any tectonic disturbance. Circulatory and elongation ratios show that the watershed has elongated shape. The estimation of form factor and circularity ratio also confirm that the basin is elongated, with permeable subsurface, compactness coefficient value shows the longest time of concentration before peak flow. Relief ratio and length of overland flow let out the fact that the rain water has more residence time on the land which provides more time to percolate the water down ward and sheet flow is also larger than peak flow which reduces the run off. Value of farm factor indicating elongated shape, suggest flat hydrograph peak for longer duration, hence in elongated basins flood management is rather easier. From the analysis of morphometric parameters the hydrologic characters may be deduced",

Everything Smart Scholars runsNine sites, one account. A journal starts at the audit; an author starts at Scholar Shield.

For journals & publishers

Start with the audit — it is free, and it is the gate to everything else.

DOI care

Nine services on one journal profile — each previews first and acts only on your approval.

For authors & researchers

Free to use. Nothing you check is shared with the journal.

For institutions, sponsors & DOI operators

Smart Scholars

Mon–Sat, 10:00–19:00 IST. The Ask AI button on every page answers about our services at any hour.
