Assessing Factors of User Participation in Social Media During Crisis Events: An Analysis of Features and Practices

This data is analyzed and presented in the publication: Assessing Factors of User Participation in Social Media During Crisis Events: An Analysis of Features and Practices Abstract The relevance of employing social media in crisis scenarios has aroused interest for researchers and teams responsible for crisis management.     The aim of this study is to explore the experience and abilities of social media users related to such events.     For this, we conducted an analysis of the functionalities of social media used in this context, followed by a survey with users of social media.     The research included the participation of 159 individuals and queried whether the participants had previously witnessed crisis events, whether they habitually share information about these events, and whether they perceived the importance of this practice.     The results suggest that participants actively use social media and are inclined to share information about crisis events, provided improvements are made to the existing features.     This study offers contributions toward a more profound understanding of social media tools, user interaction, and information sharing while considering the challenges found during such events.

Early-life experience determines the social stability of adult communities in female mice

Home cage RFID-based tracking data of female mice housed in three independent colonies. Data are in the compressed 'RData' format and constitute data objects generated by the R package 'ColonyTrack' (https://rupertoverall.net/ColonyTrack/). The files "YOUNG.RData", "OLD.RData" and "WIND.RData" contain "colonytrack_data" objects with all raw RFID antenna contacts. The files "YOUNG_metrics.RData", "OLD_metrics.RData" and "WIND_metrics.RData" contain "colonytrack_metrics" objects with derived features and processed data used for analysis. These files are supporting data for the manuscript "Early-life experience determines the social stability of adult communities in female mice".

Portuguese citizen science and social media images of "Cortaderia Selloana"

In the first dataset (Citizen_science_dataset), we compiled 2,273 images with Cortaderia selloana from the main Portuguese citizen science platform on invasive alien plants (<a href="https://invasoras.pt/">https://invasoras.pt/</a>) and iNaturalist (<a href="https://www.inaturalist.org/">https://www.inaturalist.org/</a>), from which only those containing the species with plumes (1,323) were retained. This set of 1,323 images was manually checked, and low resolution and blurred images were removed (resulting in 1,237 images). A similar number (1,237) of outdoor images without Cortaderia selloana (in similar context to the ones with Cortaderia selloana) was additionally collected from Flickr, resulting in a total of 2,474 images.  The second dataset (Social_media_dataset) consists of publicly available images taken in Portugal from four social media platforms: Facebook (<a href="https://www.facebook.com/">https://www.facebook.com/</a>), Flickr (<a href="https://www.flickr.com/">https://www.flickr.com/</a>), Instagram (<a href="https://www.instagram.com/">https://www.instagram.com/</a>) and Twitter (<a href="https://twitter.com/">https://twitter.com/</a>). Image collection was done by searching for common names of C. selloana in Portuguese (e.g., “Erva das pampas”, “Capim das pampas”), as well as the scientific name of the species (i.e., “Cortaderia selloana”), resulting in a total of 400 images. We also collected the same number of outdoor images without the C. selloana from the same social media platforms). The final size of the transferability set was 800 images.

Dataset: Metabolic shift toward ketosis in asocial cavefish increases social-like affinity -2

This is a video dataset 2 for the publication at BMC Biology 2023 whose summary is:  Background: Social affinity and collective behavior are nearly ubiquitous in the animal kingdom, but many lineages feature evolutionarily asocial species. These solitary species may have evolved to conserve energy in food-sparse environments. However, the mechanism by which metabolic shifts regulate social affinity is not well investigated. Results: In this study, we used the Mexican tetra (Astyanax mexicanus), which features riverine sighted surface (surface fish) and cave-dwelling populations (cavefish), to address the impact of metabolic shifts on asociality and other cave-associated behaviors in cavefish, including repetitive turning, sleeplessness, swimming longer distances, and enhanced foraging behavior. After one month of ketosis-inducing ketogenic diet feeding, asocial cavefish exhibited significantly higher social affinity, whereas social affinity regressed in cavefish fed the standard diet. The ketogenic diet also reduced repetitive turning and swimming in cavefish. No major behavioral shifts were found regarding sleeplessness and foraging behavior, suggesting that other evolved behaviors are not largely regulated by ketosis. We further examined the effects of the ketogenic diet via supplementation with exogenous ketone bodies, revealing that ketone bodies are pivotal molecules positively associated with social affinity. Conclusions: Our study indicated that fish that evolved to be asocial remain capable of exhibiting social affinity under ketosis, possibly linking the seasonal food availability and sociality.

Dataset to support "Explore the potential of using social media crowdsourcing for earthquake damage assessment"

This dataset is used to support findings in the paper "Explore the potential of using social media crowdsourcing for earthquake damage assessment." In this paper, we investigated six earthquake events to explore the potential of using social media crowdsourcing for earthquake damage assessment. These cases include the 2014 Iquique earthquake, the 2015 Napa earthquake, the 2015 Nepal earthquake, the 2019 Ridgecrest earthquake, the 2021 Fukushima earthquake, and the 2021 Haiti earthquake. For the first three cases, tweet ID information was collected from the publicly available website CrisisNLP (https://crisisnlp.qcri.org/). For the last three cases, we collected “near-real-time” tweets with the key search term “earthquake.” For the 2019 Ridgecrest earthquake, the search date range was from July 4 to 10, 2019. For the 2021 Fukushima earthquake, the search date range was February 13 to 17, 2021. For the 2021 Haiti earthquake, the search date range was August 14 to 19, 2021. It should be noted that restrictions apply to the availability of tweet data due to the policy from Twitter Inc. Tweet data showing user profiles or text content is not allowed to be shared publicly, but tweet IDs are available to download from this dataset.  In addition, we attached our processed results to this dataset, including, <ol> <li>Damage estimation. The damage estimation for each event is based on the average estimated level of all damage-related tweets identified by text classification models, as documented in our paper.</li> <li>Temporal dynamics of damage estimation.  We conducted the temporal analysis to explore the convergence of damage estimates over time, in which data were first binned based on the number of damage-related tweets in each 2-hour interval.</li> </ol> If you need the training and testing datasets or have any further questions regarding the dataset or paper, please do not hesitate to reach us.
