Displacement measurement via self mixing interferometry and neural network training set
<p>Self mixing interferometry is a simple and robust sensing method which can be used (among other things) to measure the displacement of a target along the light propagation axis. While conceptually simple, the actual use of this method is less straightforward than originally envisioned because reconstructing the target displacement from the interferometric signal is often tricky. A small neural network can do this task very well after proper training, as described in [10.1364/OE.419844]. This data set was used to train the network in that work (after data augmentation). It consists of a python dictionary with two keys: `truth` and `signal`. The `truth` part is a 195011-elements long numpy array corresponding to the displacement of the target in units of wavelength per 1.024 ms. The `signal` part is the interferometric signal corresponding to the displacement. It is arranged in a (195011,256,1) numpy array. Each segment of length 256 corresponds to the interferometric signal acquired during a 1.024 ms time window. For instance, the displacement value in `truth[618]` corresponds to the interferometric signal segment `signal[618,:,0]`.</p>
PsPM-LSOA: Pupil size response, SCR, EMG, ECG and respiration measurement from a classical (Pavlovian) discriminant delay fear conditioning task
<p>This dataset includes eye tracker (including pupillometry), skin conductance, EMG, ECG and respiratory measurements. Also included are task information, keypress responses, keypress response times and key correctness for each of 22 healthy unmedicated participants (13 females and 9 males aged 25.3 +/- 4.3 years) participating in a classical (Pavlovian) discriminant delay fear conditioning task. CS consists of two sine tones with constant frequency (135 Hz or 300 Hz). Assignment of CS frequency to CS-/CS+ is randomised across participants. US is a train of electric square pulses delivered with a constant current stimulator (Digitimer DS7A, Digitimer, Welwyn Garden City, UK) on participants' dominant forearm through a pin-cathode/ring-anode configuration. SOA betwen the CS and US is 7.5 s. The ITI is randomly determined on each trial to be 10.0 +/- 1.4 s.</p>
Shear-wave splitting measurements for a 10-year catalogue in Taupō volcano
<p>The dataset provided includes seismic anisotropy results using a 10-year catalogue around Taupō volcano (January 2010 to December 2019). For the seismic anisotropy measurements, we used seismic data from 23 stations managed by GeoNet. The earthquake catalogue for this dataset was determined by Illsley-Kemp et al. (2021) using matched-filtered earthquake detection (Chamberlain & Townend, 2018). The earthquake templates for the matched-filtered detection were obtained from the GeoNet catalogue with revised manual picks. </p> <p>In case you use this data, please cite the following publications:</p> <p>Bakkar, H.

Measurements of natural radioactivity levels and associated radiation hazard indices in Moringa plant leaf samples from selected areas in southern Ethiopia.
<p>Moringa stenopetala (MS) is a multipurpose tree whose leaf is consumed by people of all ages in southern Ethiopia. In this study, natural radioactivity levels of <sup>226</sup>Ra, <sup>232</sup>Th, and <sup>40</sup>K, as well as the related dangerous radiological characteristics, were measured on different sites of moringa samples using high-purity germanium (HPGe) gamma-ray spectrometry. Average activity concentrations of <sup>226</sup>Ra, <sup>232</sup>Th, and <sup>40</sup>K in moringa leaves are found to be 0.49 ± 0.12, 3.84 ± 1.12, and 573.29 ± 26.79 Bq.kg<sup>-1</sup>, respectively. Moreover, the average values of the corresponding radiological parameters, Ra<sub>eq</sub>, H<sub>int</sub>, and annual effective dose (E<sub>ave</sub>) (sum), were also found to be 50.13 ± 3.79 Bq.kg<sup>-1</sup>, 0.136 ± 0.010, and 0.238 ± 0.089 mSvy<sup>-1</sup>, respectively. When the obtained results for all of the samples were compared to globally accepted criteria, they were discovered to be lower than the allowable world average levels. Furthermore, the lifetime cancer risk was revealed to be far lower than the allowable limit. According to the study, the risk of absorbing natural radionuclides from moringa leaf ingestion is insignificant. The findings can be utilized to create radiation safety norms and regulations for the use of moringa leaves as food and medication.</p>
Combined fluorescence fluctuation and spectrofluorometric measure-ments reveal a red-shifted, near-IR emissive photo-isomerized form of Cyanine 5

Upon continuous exciation, especially at excitation conditions used in single-molecule and super-resolution experiments, photo-isomerized states of cyanines easily reach population probabilies of around 50%. Still, effects of photo-isomerization are largely ignored in such experiments. Here, we studied the photo-isomerization of the pentamethine Cyanine 5 (Cy5) by two similar, yet complementary means to follow fluorophore blinking dynamics: fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) and transient state (TRAST) excitation-modulation spectroscopy. Additionally, we combined TRAST and spectrofluorimetry (spectral-TRAST), whereby emission spectra of Cy5 were recorded upon different rectangular pulse-train excitations. We also developed a framework for analyzing transitions between multiple emissive states in FCS and TRAST experiments, how the brightness of the different states is weighted, and what initial conditions that apply. Our FCS, TRAST and spectral-TRAST experiments showed significant differences in dark state relaxation amplitudes for different spectral detection ranges, which we attribute to an additional, red-shifted emissive photo-isomerized state of Cy5, not previously considered in FCS and single-molecule experiments. The photo-isomerization kinetics of this state indicate that it is formed under moderate excitation conditions, and its population and emission may thus deserve also more general consideration in fluorescence imaging and spectroscopy experiments.</p>

Quantification of Error Sources with Inertial Measurement Units in Sports - Data and Matlab Scripts
<p>Inertial measurement units (IMUs) offer the possibility to capture the lower body motions of players of outdoor team sports. However, various sources of error are present when using IMUs: the definition of the body frames, the soft tissue artefact (STA) and the orientation filer. Methods to minimize these errors are currently being used without knowing their exact influence on the various sources of errors. The goal of this study was to quantify each of the sources of error of an IMU separately. An optoelectronic system was used as a golden standard. Rigid marker clusters (RMCs) were designed to construct a rigid connection between the IMU and four markers. This allowed for the separate quantification of each of the sources of error. Ten subjects performed nine different trials, varying both in type of movement and in movement intensity. The error of the definition of the body frames (10.9-18.1 deg RMSD), the STA (3.6-9.4 deg RMSD) and the error of the orientation filter (2.8- 13.1 deg RMSD) were all quantified separately. The data and code to process the data can be found in this publication.</p> <p> </p>

Spectral Measurements of Parent Soils from Globally Important Dust Aerosol Entrainment Regions
<p>Spectral data for the paper “Spectral Characterization of Parent Soils from Globally Important Dust Aerosol Entrainment Regions” submitted to the journal of JGR: Atmospheres article number: 2022JD037666.</p> <p>Visible, short-wave infrared (VSWIR) and longwave infrared (LWIR) reflectance spectra as well as longwave transmission spectra presented in that paper are included in this Zenodo repository.</p> <p>The spectral data are stored in CSV file format in columns and the first columns are the wavelengths.</p> <p><strong>VSWIR reflectance</strong>: VSWIR was measured in the wavelength range between ~ 350 and 2500 nm using Spectral Evolution (SE), model RS-5400 portable spectroradiometer with a spectral resolution of 1.5 to 3.8 nm. Soil samples were placed in an aluminum holder and the reflectance spectra collected using a contact probe, equipped with an internal halogen light source. A reflectance spectrum for a spectralon white reference panel was obtained prior to each soil measurement for calibration. All soil reflectance spectra were automatically ratioed to that of the spectralon calibration target. All spectral measurements were converted to absolute reflectance using the correction for spectralon. To obtain adequate signal to noise ratio (SNR), 60 individual scans were averaged for each final output spectrum.</p> <p><strong>LWIR reflectance: </strong>LWIR reflectance was measured in the wavelength range between ~ 2.5 and 25 µm using a benchtop Nicolet 380 Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer. We used a diffuse reflectance attachment that holds the sample and reference plate horizontally. Gold was used as a reference reflectance standard, because it is highly reflective at all LWIR wavelengths. Once the reference background is collected, the loaded sample holder is placed into the FTIR device to measure the sample reflectance, which is automatically ratioed to the reflectance of the gold plate. This removes the effects caused by the instrument and by atmospheric gases in the instrument path length so that features in the final spectrum are solely due to the sample. To improve the SNR, we set the numbers of scans averaged for the samples and gold reference to 100 and 200, respectively.</p> <p><strong>LWIR transmission: </strong>LWIR transmission was measured in the wavelength range between ~ 2.5 and 25 µm using a benchtop Nicolet 380 Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer. First, we made soil-KBr pellets using 0.5 mg of soil and 200 mg of KBr blended using a clean mortar and pestle for 2 to 3 minutes to ensure uniform dispersion of mineral particles in the matrix. Pellet production was performed with the means of an evacuable KBr Die Kit and a CrushIR Digital Hydraulic Press from PIKE Technologies (Madison, WI, USA). The mixture was first transferred to the Die Kit which was then pressed under vacuum for about 4 to 5 minutes at a pressure of ~ 10 t cm<sup>-2</sup>, forming a hard disk 13 mm in diameter. Due to the hygroscopic nature of KBr, we pulled a vacuum on the pellet die for approximately 3 to 4 minutes prior to compression, and we immediately placed the pellets in a desiccant box, and then measured transmission within one or two hours of pellet creation.</p> <p>The pellet was attached to a self-adhesive sampling card and placed into the transmission holder. The resulting transmission spectrum for the sample is recorded with the dust-KBr mixture measurement being ratioed to that for an empty chamber, or blank reference. To avoid contamination of transmission spectra with ambient gases, the instrument was initially purged with dry air for at least 5 minutes, prior to each transmission collection. To increase the quality of the spectra and improve the SNR, the numbers of scans averaged were 200 for the blank reference and 100 for the samples.</p>

Data from: Predicting and measuring decision rules for social recognition in a Neotropical frog
<p>Many animals use signals to recognize familiar individuals but risk mistakes because the signal properties of different individuals often overlap. Further, outcomes of correct and incorrect decisions yield different fitness payoffs, and animals incur these payoffs at different frequencies depending on interaction rates. To understand how signal variation, payoffs, and interaction rates shape recognition decision rules, we studied male golden rocket frogs, which recognize the calls of territory neighbors and are less aggressive to neighbors than to strangers. We first quantified patterns of individual variation in call properties and predicted optimal discrimination thresholds using signal variation. We then measured thresholds for discriminating between neighbors and strangers using a habituation-discrimination field playback experiment. Territorial males discriminated between calls differing by 9% to 12% in temporal properties, slightly higher than the predicted thresholds (5-10%). Finally, we used a signal detection theory model to explore payoff and interaction rate parameters and found that the empirical threshold matched those predicted under ecologically realistic assumptions of infrequent encounters with strangers and relatively costly missed detections of strangers. We demonstrate that receivers group continuous variation in vocalizations into discrete social categories and that signal detection theory can be applied to understand evolved decision rules.</p>

Conservation measures or hotspots of disease transmission? Agri-environment schemes can reduce disease prevalence in pollinator communities
<p><span>Insects are under pressure from agricultural intensification. To protect pollinators, conservation measures such as the EU agri-environment schemes (AES) promote planting wildflowers along fields. However, this can potentially alter disease ecology by serving as transmission hubs or by diluting infections. We tested this by measuring plant-pollinator interactions and virus infections (DWV-A, DWV-B and ABPV) across pollinator communities in agricultural landscapes over a year. AES had a direct effect on DWV-B, reducing prevalence and load in honeybees, with a tentative general dilution effect on load in early summer. DWV-A prevalence was reduced both under AES and with increasing niche overlap between competent hosts, likely via a dilution effect. In contrast, AES had no impact on ABPV; its prevalence was driven by the proportion of bumblebees in the community. Epidemiological differences were also reflected in the virus phylogenies, with DWV-B showing recent rapid expansion, while DWV-A and ABPV showed slower growth rates and geographic population structure. Phylogenies indicate that all three viruses freely circulate across their host populations. Our study illustrates how complex interactions between environmental, ecological and evolutionary factors may influence wildlife disease dynamics. Supporting pollinator nutrition can mitigate the transmission of important bee diseases, providing an unexpected boost to pollinator conservation.</span></p>
