Mollusc population size distribution monitoring: Fall 2019 mid-marsh and creekbank infaunal and epifaunal mollusc size distributions based on collections from GCE marsh monitoring sites 1-10
This data set is the Fall 2019 report of infaunal and epifaunal mollusc species size distributions at the GCE-LTER marsh sites used for population monitoring. Infaunal and epifaunal molluscs were hand-collected from within quadrats of known area from mid-marsh and creekbank zones (n = 4 quadrats per zone) at all sites. The molluscs were returned to the lab, preserved in ethanol, measured and counted (count data is reported separately). Length of each measurable individual was determined using calipers or an ocular micrometer mounted in a stereomicroscope. Species abundance and density data for these collections may be found in the GCE-LTER data set INV-GCEM-2007. Numbers of individuals of each species in the abundance data file may not correspond exactly to the numbers of individuals in the size data file because some individuals may not have been measureable.
Fall 2020 grasshopper monitoring -- mid-marsh grasshopper abundance and species diversity at eight GCE LTER sampling sites
Grasshopper abundance and species diversity were investigated at eight sampling sites within the Georgia Coastal Ecosystems (GCE) LTER study area in July 2020. Visual surveys were conducted along 8 2m by 10m transects randomly allocated within the mid-marsh zone at each site. All grasshoppers observed within each transect were counted and identified to species, if possible. This survey was conducted as part of the GCE invertebrate monitoring program, and will be performed annually to assess long-term changes in relative species abundances across the GCE study area.
GCE-LTER Altamaha River Plant Community Monitoring Survey in October 2020
A quadrat survey was conducted in October 2020 to measure the species and size distribution of plants at 3 sampling sites on the creekbank of the Altamaha River. The sites were chosen to capture the transition from Spartina alterniflora to Spartina cynosuroides (site SCSA) and the transition from Spartina cynosuroides to Zizaniopsis miliacea (sites ZSC1 and ZSC2). The quadrats were established as permanent plots in October 2012 by placing PVC stakes along the creekbank at each site. Plots were evenly spaced, but were not randomly located because the goal was to start with mixtures of vegetation in most of the plots, and vegetation was distributed in patches along the creekbanks. Therefore, these plots provide useful measures of vegetation change, but are not a random sample of the vegetation at the site. Plots will be replaced each year as necessary to replace any lost to disturbance. The plots were visually surveyed and the species, shoot height, and flowering status was recorded individually for each shoot over 10 cm in height present in each plot. Observations from plots exhibiting signs of disturbance were noted in a separate data set. This survey will be repeated annually to assess changes in plant distribution and biomass in relation to environmental changes documented by other GCE LTER monitoring efforts.
Fall 2021 grasshopper monitoring -- mid-marsh grasshopper abundance and species diversity at eight GCE LTER sampling sites
Grasshopper abundance and species diversity were investigated at eight sampling sites within the Georgia Coastal Ecosystems (GCE) LTER study area in August 2021. Visual surveys were conducted along 8 2m by 10m transects randomly allocated within the mid-marsh zone at each site. All grasshoppers observed within each transect were counted and identified to species, if possible. This survey was conducted as part of the GCE invertebrate monitoring program, and will be performed annually to assess long-term changes in relative species abundances across the GCE study area.
CLA Yahara Lakes Citizen Offshore Water Quality Monitoring 2016 - 2017
In 2013, Clean Lakes Alliance (CLA) launched a Citizen Water Quality Monitoring pilot. Objectives included evaluating and tracking nearshore water quality conditions on all five Yahara lakes: Lakes Mendota, Monona, Waubesa, Kegonsa and Wingra. In 2016, in order to fully understand the interaction between the offshore and nearshore environment, CLA volunteers will begin sampling the deepest point (deep hole) of all Yahara lakes. The offshore monitoring program will focus on two components: water clarity sampling and dissolved oxygen and temperature measurement. Data from the offshore monitoring program will be compared to data from the nearshore program.
PIE LTER salt marsh vegetation cover data from regularly monitored quadrats along transects in Rowley, MA.
Marsh vegetation cover data from quadrats along transects in salt marsh sites in Rowley, MA. The transects are intended to study long term changes in marsh vegetation. Four sites ((12 transects) were originally set up to study the impact of salt marsh haying. Two of these sites (labeled McH and EPH) were regularly hayed until 2002. The other two (PUH and CC) were reference sites. Two additional sites labeled RM and RR (8 transects) were originally set up to track invasion by Phragmites australis.

SBC LTER: Daily averages of modeled significant wave height (Hs) and peak wave period (Tp) in the Santa Barbara Coastal area from the Coastal Data Information Program - Monitoring and Prediction System (CDIP MOP)
From http://cdip.ucsb.edu: The Coastal Data Information Program (CDIP) is a research group at Scripps Institution of Oceanography that monitors coastal waves and nearshore sand levels on regional scales. CDIP maintains a network of optimally-placed, directional wave buoys from San Diego to Eureka. The buoy measurements are used to initialize a high spatial resolution (100m x 100m) linear spectral wave propagation model. The resulting hourly hindcasts and nowcasts of CA coastal wave conditions have a level of accuracy that is not possible with more traditional wind-wave generation models that are initialized with modeled wind fields.
Evolutionary Monitoring for the SEV LTER program at the Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge, New Mexico
This dataset contains collection and specimen archive information for plant and arthropod tissue samples from the Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge that are currently stored in The Museum of Southwestern Biology’s Division of Genomic Resources at the University of New Mexico. The purpose of the sample collection is to allow researchers in the future to do genetic or genomic work on archived historical samples collected at six-year intervals. Six dominant, foundation plant species are represented. Stored tissues include roots from Bouteloua eriopoda, Bouteloua gracilis, Larrea tridentata, and Machaeranthera pinnatifida, leaves from Juniperus monosperma, Larrea tridentata, and Pinus edulis, and seeds from Larrea tridentata. A few arthropods were collected opportunistically when they adhered to plant material brought back to the lab. Collection dates were from 9 October through 4 November 2019. Samples were collected within four core sites of the Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge, Socorro, NM: (Plains grassland: core_blue, Desert grassland: core_black, Desert shrubland: core_creosote, and Pinon-juniper woodland: core_PJ).
EPSRC HEED Data Repository: Footfall Monitoring System
<p>The dataset deposited here was prepared under the EPSRC-funded <a href="http://heed-refugee.coventry.ac.uk/">Humanitarian Engineering and Energy for Displacement</a> research project (EP/P029531/1). The project aimed to understand energy needs of displaced communities, create an evidence base on the usage of different energy interventions and provide recommendations for improved design of future energy interventions to better meet the needs of people. </p> <p>As part of the project, we deployed a Footfall Monitoring System in the Uttargaya settlement in Nepal. Footfall monitors are designed to measure the step count of passers-by with the aim to: Evaluate the level of activity in an area by measuring footfall count and Evaluate the effect of streetlights on the level of activity.</p> <p>For the purpose of this study, the 7 footfall monitors are deployed beside 7 streetlights. The footfall monitors were deployed prior to commissioning of streetlights to gather baseline data and evaluate the impact of streetlights on the footfall count. The key constituents of footfall monitors are: Raspberry Pi 3B and Case; PiFace Real Time Clock and CAM008 70º night vision camera. The total cost of a monitor is £92.88. The Raspberry Pi is the central unit of the system that runs a program to sense the footfall count as measured by the IR sensor. The IR sensor counts footfall by tracking the number of times a horizontal beam of light is “broken” when a person crosses a threshold. If new data is recorded by the sensor, the updated footfall count along with the direction of movement and the current time (measured from PiFace RTC) is stored onto an SD card. A packet containing the updated values is also transmitted to the heed-data server hosted at Coventry University.</p> <p>Post Deployment Challenges:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Damage to footfall</strong>: In April 2019, footfall monitor 7 was damaged due to a gust of storm and heavy rains in the camp. This monitor was replaced in May 2019.</li> <li><strong>Power outages:</strong> These are common in the camp. Data is lost during this time as the devices have no access to power.</li> <li><strong>Internet connectivity: </strong>The availability and reliability of Wi-Fi continue to be an issue for the transmission of data to heed-data server.</li> </ul>
Arctic falcons population monitoring data
<p>The Arctic Falcon Specialist Group (AFSG) is an informal network of biologists with a research focus on Arctic-breeding peregrine falcons (<em>Falco peregrinus</em>) and gyrfalcons (<em>Falco rusticolus)</em>. AFSG was established to enhance the coordination and collaboration on the monitoring of the two Arctic falcon species and the initial joint effort was to compile the first overview of Arctic falcon monitoring sites, present trends for long-term occupancy and productivity, and summarize information describing abundance, distribution, phenology and health of the two species – based on data for 24 falcon monitoring sites across the Arctic. The analyses were published in the journal Ambio (Franke et al. 2020) as a contribution to the terrestrial Circumpolar Biodiversity Monitoring Programme (CBMP) defined by Arctic Council’s Biodiversity Working Group (Christensen et al. 2018).</p> <p>The data compiled from across the Arctic for the analyses by Franke et al. (2020) are here made available for wider usage and comparisons. However, for the analyses in the Ambio paper, some filtering procedures were applied (e.g. time series shorter than 10 sampling years, or fewer than 10 territories monitored), excluding some of the original data that are now made available in this dataset. In addition, some co-authors preferred either to conduct separate uploads of respective data, or declined the invitation to make the data publicly available (see attached map overview of monitoring sites); hence this dataset does not exactly match the data analysed by Franke et al. (2020).</p> <p>This data set contains the annual estimates of peregrine and gyrfalcon ‘occupancy’ and ‘productivity’ in respective monitoring sites; for definitions as well a discussion of challenges in determining, interpreting and comparing those figures across sites with different sampling procedures please consult Franke et al. (2020 and 2017).</p> <p>The file named <strong>Arctic falcons monitoring data - AFSG 2020.csv</strong> contains the annual estimates of occupancy and productivity for peregrine falcon and gyrfalcon along with information on monitoring sites and the principal investigators as specified in the file <strong>ReadMe_Arctic-falcons-monitoring-data.txt</strong>. <strong>Arctic falcons monitoring data - AFSG 2020.xlsx</strong> contains the same data in Microsoft Excel format.</p> <p>The file named <strong>AFSG-MonitoringSites-with-data.png</strong> provides an overview of the 24 monitoring sites described in Franke et al. (2020) with indication of which datasets are included here.</p> <p>Please note that:</p> <ul> <li>The dataset contains information on sample size (number of nesting territories surveyed in each monitoring site and year) for some areas only; for areas without sample size more than 10 territories were usually surveyed. However, for interpreting the data, potential users may need to consult the principal investigators for the specific monitoring sites.</li> <li>The dataset lists the principal investigators (and contact details) as respective “data owners”; in addition to the Creative Commons License 4.0 specifications covering this data upload, potential data users are strongly encouraged to contact the data owners prior to using or interpreting the data – for consent and possible co-authorship.</li> </ul>
Data From: Exploring Gelatin-A and Mouse Proline-Rich Protein 5 as Probes for Wine Polyphenols analysis by Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation Monitoring
<p>Polyphenols are essential in winemaking, affecting the wine's quality, color, astringency, bitterness, and chemical stability. Conventional methods for assessing polyphenolic content are both expensive and time-intensive, underscoring the need for new, efficient techniques.</p> <p>The Quartz Crystal Microbalance with Dissipation Monitoring (QCM-D) sensor is recognized for its speed and reliability as a label-free detection tool. This study applies QCM-D to evaluate Gelatin Type A (Gel-A) from porcine skin and Mouse Proline-Rich Protein 5 (MP5) for polyphenol analysis in red wines without pre-treatment. MP5 notably exhibited a linear dissipation signal response with both total polyphenol and hydroxybenzoic acid concentrations. These findings highlight the potential for creating a stand-alone sensor platform for real-time polyphenol monitoring in winemaking.</p>

This area has been protected from logging and other significant disturbances since its establishment as a protected area in 1979.</p> <p>ii) CANDURA- The Secondary Forest plot (10.30855411° N, 76.83391853° E; 875 m asl) is situated within a 124-hectare rainforest remnant on the Valparai Plateau: the Candura rainforest remnant. The Candura site experienced episodic selective logging in the 1990s and early 2000s, with the last logging episode occurring in 2004. In the early 2000s, the understorey of the remnant was cleared for Vanilla (Vanilla planifolia) cultivation in the central and southern parts (abandoned in 2007), robusta coffee (Coffea canephora) in the northwestern corner (abandoned in the early 2000s), and pepper in 21 hectares in the northeastern part (established in 2015, abandoned in 2021).</p> <p>Climate: Humid tropical with about 2400 mm rainfall annually, falling mainly during the southwest monsoon.</p> <p><br><strong>4) TEMPORAL COVERAGE</strong></p> <p>a) Begins: 2017-11-30 (Year, Month, Day)<br>b) Ends: 2022-11-12 (Year, Month, Day)</p> <p><br>5) SAMPLING DESIGN AND METHODS </p> <p>a) Plot Design: Each 1 ha plot of 100 m × 100 m, sub-divided into 100 continuous sub-plots of 10 m × 10 m, was surveyed and mapped to maximum accuracy using a theodolite in the field, with grid corners permanently staked. <br>b) Data collection period and frequency: After the plot establishment in NOvember -- December 2017, the plots were recensused each year (around November). <br>c) Research Methods: All woody plant individuals with girth at breast height (GBH, at 1.3 m) ≥10 cm were tagged with numbered aluminum tags and spatially mapped. Plant species were identified using standard floral keys. Stem GBH was measured for all single stemmed individuals. For trees with buttresses, the GBH point of measurement (POM) was taken at 50 cm above the buttresses or at the height where the stem is regular. New saplings that recruited into the ≥10 cm GBH class were identified, mapped, tagged, and added to the monitoring. Stems that appeared to be dead were recorded at each monitoring and those that showed no signs of recovery in subsequent visits were recorded as mortality.</p> <p><br><strong>6) FILES INCLUDED</strong></p> <p>The dataset includes the following 9 files, whose details and contents are explained below.

Hyperspectral Imaging Dataset for Laser Thermal Ablation Monitoring in Vital Organs
<p><strong>Objectives:</strong> The objective of the research was to use hyperspectral imaging (HSI) to detect thermal damage induced in vital organs (such as the liver, pancreas, and stomach) during laser thermal therapy. The experimental study was conducted during thermal ablation procedures on live pigs.</p> <p><strong>Ethical Approval:</strong> The experiments were performed at the Institute for Image Guided Surgery in Strasbourg, France. This experimental study was approved by the local Ethical Committee on Animal Experimentation (ICOMETH No. 38.2015.01.069) and by the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research (protocol №APAFiS-19543-2019030112087889, approved on March 14, 2019). All animals were treated in accordance with the ARRIVE guidelines, the French legislation on the use and care of animals, and the guidelines of the Council of the European Union (2010/63/EU).</p> <p><strong>Description:</strong> During our experimental study, we used a TIVITA hyperspectral camera to acquire hypercubes of size 640x480x100 voxels, indicating 640x480 pixels for 100 bands, and regular RGB images at each acquisition step. These bands were acquired directly from the hyperspectral camera without additional pre-processing. The hypercube was acquired in approximately 6 seconds and synchronized with the absence of breathing motion using a protocol implemented for animal anesthesia. Polyurethane markers were placed around the target area to serve as references for superimposing the hyperspectral images, which were acquired using target areas selected according to the hyperspectral camera manufacturer's guidelines.</p> <p>As part of our investigation, we included hyperspectral cubes from 20 experiments conducted under identical conditions in our study. The hyperspectral cubes were collected in three distinct stages. In the first stage, the cubes were gathered before laparotomy at a temperature of 37°C. In the second stage, we obtained the cubes as the temperature gradually increased from 60°C to 110°C at 10°C intervals. Finally, in the last stage, the cubes were collected after turning off the laser during the post-ablation phase. Thus, we obtained a total of 233 hyperspectral cubes, each consisting of 100 wavelengths, resulting in a dataset of 23,300 two-dimensional images. The temperature changes were recorded, and the “<em>Temperature profile during laser ablation</em>” image illustrates the corresponding profile, highlighting the specific time intervals during which the hyperspectral camera and laser were activated and deactivated. To provide a visual representation of the collected data, we have included several examples of images captured from different organs in the “<em>Examples of ablation areas</em>” figure.</p> <p>The raw dataset, comprising 233 hyperspectral cubes of 100 wavelengths each, was transformed into 699 single-channel images using PCA and t-SNE decompositions. These images were then divided into training and test subsets and prepared in the COCO object detection format. This COCO dataset can be used for training and testing different neural networks.</p> <p><strong>Access to the Study:</strong> Further information about this study, including curated source code, dataset details, and trained models, can be accessed through the following repositories:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Source code:</strong> <a href="https://github.com/ViacheslavDanilov/hsi_analysis" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://github.com/ViacheslavDanilov/hsi_analysis</a></li> <li><strong>Dataset:</strong> <a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10444212" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10444212</a></li> <li><strong>Models:</strong> <a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10444269" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.10444269</a></li> </ul>

Data from Yellow Sigatoka monitoring methods in the subtropical climate of southern Brazil
<h2>Description of the data and file structure</h2> <p>In this study four methods of disease monitoring were tested under field conditions: Biological Pre Warning (BPW); Stage of Evolution (SE); youngest Leaf Spotted (YLS); Infection Index (II). The BPW system evaluates the youngest leaves (2, 3, and 4), assigning a value for each type of lesion present, as well as for intensity of the lesion on the leaves (BUREAU et al., 1992). In the dataset is cited as the variable gross sum (points).</p> <p>The SE evaluates more leaves (1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) and scores only the most advanced symptoms of leaf disease, but without considering lesion intensity (GANRY et al., 2008). The SE calculation also corrects the gross sum of the disease according to leaf emission. The leaf emission rate was calculated using the Brun scale, which evaluates cigar leaf growth in decimals from 0.0 to 0.8. In the dataset is cited as the variable corrected gross sum (points).</p> <p>YLS is evaluated as the first leaf that has 10 spots with gray centers (CARLIER et al., 2003). In the dataset is cited as the variable YLS, which means the leaf position counted from the top to the botton of the plant (leaf number 3, leaf number 4...).</p> <p>Sigatoka Infection Index is quantified by assessing the severity of banana leaf disease using the Stover scale, with indexes from 0 to 50%, by means of the following formula: Infection Index =% (IF): [Σn × b / (N- 1) × T] × 100, in which: n = the number of leaves at each Stover scale level; b = degree according to the scale; N = the number of degrees employed in the scale (6); T = the total number of leaves evaluated (CARLIER et al., 2003). In the dataset is cited as the variable Infection index that should be understood like the severity of this leaf disease.</p> <p>In the second phase of the study, two monitoring methods were applied in commercial orchards in order to compare the standard model (Biological Pre-Warning – BPW) with the alternative method selected in the experimental phase (Youngest Leaf Spotted – YLS). The methods were applied, as described before in three sites in Criciúma (site 1) and Siderópolis (sites 2 e 3), municipalities in the southern coast of the state of Santa Catarina, from March 2016 to November 2018. During this period, 37 disease evaluations were performed at each location.</p> <p>Disease data of the experimental area were submitted to descriptive analysis and Pearson correlation at 5% probability of error. Disease progress curves were also plotted. The disease development data in commercial orchards were analyzed by plotting disease progress curves for BPW and by frequency distribution (%) for the YLS variable during all period of the experiment.</p>

Regional Estimates of Chemical Composition of Fine Particulate Matter Using a Combined Geoscience-Statistical Method with Information from Satellites, Models, and Monitors: V4.NA.02.MAPLE
<p>We estimate ground-level fine particulate matter (PM<sub>2.5</sub>) total and compositional mass concentrations over North America by combining Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) retrievals from the NASA MODIS, MISR, and SeaWIFS instruments with the GEOS-Chem chemical transport model, and subsequently calibrated to regional ground-based observations of both total and compositional mass using Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR) as detailed in the provided reference for V4.NA.02. V4.NA.02.MAPLE further modified the V4.NA.02 GWR method with additional developments as part of the MAPLE (Mortality–Air Pollution Associations in Low-Exposure Environments) project. This adjustment was of particular value over low concentrations. The GWR method of individual components remains unchanged from V4.NA.02, but are provided are percentages to ensure mass closure and recommended to be applied to the V4.NA.02.MAPLE total PM<sub>2.5</sub>.</p> <p>Annual datasets are provided in NetCDF [.nc]. Gridded files use the WGS84 projection. Compositional estimates are provided for sulfate (SO4), nitrate (NO3), ammonium (NH4), organic matter (OM), black carbon (BC), mineral dust (DUST), and sea-salt (SS). Percentages are denoted with a ‘p’ after component identifiers within filenames. A slight change in file name has been included for 2017, corresponding to minor internal changes compared to earlier years. Overall, however, the dataset is consistent throughout its entire time period and can be appropriately used for trend analysis.</p> <p><strong>Reference:</strong><br> van Donkelaar, A., R. V.
