An Information Ecology for Sustainable Agriculture
<p>Feeding 10 billion people by 2050 will require transformative changes to our food production systems<sup>1, 2</sup>. Climate change<sup>3-6</sup>, water scarcity and urban demand<sup>7</sup>, herbicide-resistant weeds<sup>8</sup>, and declining soil<sup>9</sup> and water quality<sup>10,11</sup> are increasing crop production risks, lowering yields, and negatively impacting the environment. The increased use of sustainable agricultural practices such as reduced-tillage<sup>12</sup>, diversified crop rotations<sup>13</sup>, and integrated weed management especially through incorporation of cover crops<sup>14</sup>, are necessary to achieve this goal. However, farmers repeatedly cite management complexity and a need for site- and system-specific information to overcome the barriers to adoption<sup>15, 16</sup>. Sustainable agriculture thus demands precision tools to account for genetic and environmental nuances in complex, adaptive, agricultural systems, while simultaneously responding to the social, technological, and economic contexts of farming.</p> <p><em>Precision Sustainable Agriculture</em><sup>17</sup> uses a data-driven and human-centered approach to the research and development of on-farm monitoring tools, cloud-based, information management tools for large-scale agricultural research projects, decision support tools for agriculture data stakeholders, and modeling and analysis tools for use in sustainable agriculture. We are laying the foundation of an information ecology<sup>18</sup> for sustainable agriculture: a system of tools, data, methods, and actors to maximize farm productivity, profitability, and sustainability.</p> <p>References:</p> <ol> <li>Liu J, Folberth C, Yang H, Röckström J, Abbaspour K, Zehnder AJB.

Dataset for 'A Matter of Culture? Conceptualising and Investigating 'Evidence Cultures' within Research on Evidence-Informed Policymaking'
<p><strong><span>Introduction</span></strong><strong><span><br></span></strong><span>This document describes the data collection and datasets used in the manuscript "A Matter of Culture? Conceptualising and Investigating ‘Evidence Cultures’ within Research on Evidence-Informed Policymaking" <span>[1].</span></span></p> <p><strong><span>Data Collection</span></strong></p> <p><span>To construct the citation network analysed in the manuscript, we first designed a series of queries to capture a large sample of literature exploring the relationship between evidence, policy, and culture from various perspectives. Our team of domain experts developed the following queries based on terms common in the literature. These queries search for the terms included in the titles, abstracts, and associated keywords of WoS indexed records (i.e. ‘TS=’). While these are separated below for ease of reading, they combined into a single query via the OR operator in our search. Our search was conducted on the Web of Science’s (WoS) Core Collection through the University of Edinburgh Library subscription on 29/11/2023, returning a total of <strong><u>2,089 records</u></strong>.</span></p> <p><em><span>TS = ((“cultures of evidence” OR “culture of evidence” OR “culture of knowledge” OR “cultures of knowledge” OR “research culture” OR “research cultures” OR “culture of research” OR “cultures of research” OR “epistemic culture” OR “epistemic cultures” OR “epistemic community” OR “epistemic communities” OR “epistemic infrastructure” OR “evaluation culture” OR “evaluation cultures” OR “culture of evaluation” OR “cultures of evaluation” OR “thought style” OR “thought styles” OR “thought collective” OR “thought collectives” OR “knowledge regime” OR “knowledge regimes” OR “knowledge system” OR “knowledge systems” OR “civic epistemology” OR “civic epistemologies”) AND (“policy” OR “policies” OR “policymaking” OR “policy making” OR “policymaker” OR “policymakers” OR “policy maker” OR “policy makers” OR “policy decision” OR “policy decisions” OR “political decision” OR “political decisions” OR “political decision making”))</span></em></p> <p><em><span>OR</span></em></p> <p><em><span>TS = ((“culture” OR “cultures”) AND ((“evidence-based” OR “evidence-informed” OR “evidence-led” OR “science-based” OR “science-informed” OR “science-led” OR “research-based” OR “research-informed” OR “evidence use” OR “evidence user” OR “evidence utilisation” OR “evidence utilization” OR “research use” OR “researcher user” OR “research utilisation” OR “research utilization” OR “research in” OR “evidence in” OR “science in”) NEAR/1 (“policymaking” OR “policy making” OR “policy maker” OR “policy makers”)))</span></em></p> <p><em><span>OR</span></em></p> <p><em><span>TS = ((“culture” OR “cultures”) AND (“scientific advice” OR “technical advice” OR “scientific expertise” OR “technical expertise” OR “expert advice”) AND (“policy” OR “policies” OR “policymaking” OR “policy making” OR “policymaker” OR “policymakers” OR “policy maker” OR “policy makers” OR “political decision” OR “political decisions” OR “political decision making”))<span> </span></span></em></p> <p><em><span>OR</span></em></p> <p><em><span>TS = ((“culture” OR “cultures”) AND (“post-normal science” OR “trans-science” OR “transdisciplinary” OR “transdisiplinarity” OR “science-policy interface” OR “policy sciences” OR “sociology of knowledge” OR “sociology of science” OR “knowledge transfer” OR “knowledge translation” OR “knowledge broker” OR “implementation science” OR “risk society”) AND (“policymaking” OR “policy making” OR “policymaker” OR “policymakers” OR “policy maker” OR “policy makers”))</span></em></p> <p><strong><span>Citation Network Construction</span></strong></p> <p><span>All bibliographic metadata on these 2,089 records were downloaded in five batches in plain text and then merged in R. We then parsed these data into network readable files. All unique reference strings are given unique node IDs. A node-attribute-list (‘CE_Node’) links identifying information of each document with its node ID, including authors, title, year of publication, journal WoS ID, and WoS citations. An edge-list (‘CE_Edge’) records all citations from these documents to their bibliographies – with edges going <em>from</em> a citing document <em>to</em> the cited – using the relevant node IDs. These data were then cleaned by (a) matching DOIs for reference strings that differ but point to the same paper, and (b) manual merging of obvious duplicates caused by referencing errors.</span></p> <p><span>Our initial dataset consisted of 2,089 <em>retrieved</em> documents and 123,772 <em>unretrieved</em> cited documents (i.e. documents that were cited within the publications we retrieved but which were not one of these 2,089 documents). These documents were connected by 157,229 citation links, but ~87% of the documents in the network were cited just once. To focus on relevant literature, we filtered the network to include <em>only</em> documents with at least three citation or reference links. We further refined the dataset by focusing on the main connected component, resulting in 6,650 nodes and 29,198 edges. <strong><u>It is this dataset that we publish here</u></strong>, and it is this network that underpins Figure 1, Table 1, and the qualitative examination of documents (see manuscript for further details). </span></p> <p><span>Our final network dataset contains 1,819 of the documents in our original query (~87% of the original retrieved records), and 4,831 documents not retrieved via our Web of Science search but cited by at least three of the retrieved documents. We then clustered this network by modularity maximization via the Leiden algorithm <span>[2]</span>, detecting 14 clusters with Q=0.59. Citations to documents within the same cluster constitute ~77% of all citations in the network. </span></p> <p><strong><span>Citation Network Dataset Description</span></strong></p> <p><span>We include two network datasets: (i) ‘CE_Node.csv’ that contains 1,819 retrieved documents, 4,831 unretrieved referenced documents, making for a total of 6,650 documents (nodes); (ii)’CE_Edge.csv’ that records citations (edges) between the documents (nodes), including a total of 29,198 citation links. These files can be used to construct a network with many different tools, but we have formatted these to be used in Gephi 0.10<span>[3]</span>. </span></p> <p><strong><span>‘CE_Node.csv’</span></strong><span> is a comma-separate values file that contains two types of nodes: </span></p> <p><span><span>i.<span> </span></span></span><span>Retrieved documents – these are documents captured by our query.

Roadmapping information for each Wider Uptake case study
<p>Database summarizing information for each roadmapping step and for each of the WIDER UPTAKE H2020 project's case studies</p>
Input Dataset for Estimating Continuous Soil Water Retention Curves Using Physics-Informed Neural Networks
<p>This dataset was used as input to a physics-informed neural network (PINN) model developed to estimate continuous soil water retention curves (SWRCs). It includes basic soil properties such as particle-size distribution (sand, silt, clay), organic carbon content (OC), bulk density (BD), and measurements of soil water retention at various matric potentials. These inputs allow the model to learn the relationship between soil properties and water retention, via both data and embedded physical constraints. This data set consists of 4,200 Danish soil samples with measurements spanning the wet and dry ends of the SWRC. </p>

The Data Related to Interfacial Shift Keying Allows a High Information Rate in Molecular Communication
<p>This dataset is related to a method for molecular communication in fluids described on "Fluorescent nanoparticles for reliable communication among implantable medical devices," Carbon, vol. 190, pp. 262-275, Apr. 2022, by Federico Calì, Luca Fichera, Giuseppe Trusso Sfrazzetto, Giuseppe Nicotra, Gianfranco Sfuncia, Elena Bruno, Luca Lanzanò, Ignazio Barbagallo, Giovanni Li-Destri, Nunzio Tuccitto; doi: 10.1016/J.CARBON.2022.01.016. <br> The dataset is linked to the manuscript entitled "Interfacial Shift Keying Allows a High Information Rate in Molecular Communication: Methods and Data" by F. Calì, G. Li-Destri, and N. Tuccitto submitted to IEEE Transactions on Molecular, Biological, and Multi-Scale Communications (T-MBMC).<br> The data, including elapsed time (s), starting from the injection and fluorescence intensity (a.u.), is given in tab-separated values format as .txt files. When present, a column includes the intensity subtracted for the baseline and the subtracted and normalized intensity. In all cases, the baseline was obtained by performing a linear fit between 10 and 110 s and subtracting the line obtained from the entire dataset.<br> </p>
The Role of Informal Communication in Building Shared Understanding of Non-Functional Requirements in Remote Continuous Software Engineering
<p><strong>Study Information</strong></p> <p>We conducted an ethnography-informed case study of a remote software organization that adopts CSE practices to explore how the organization builds a shared understanding of NFRs. Our study uses semi-structured interviews with a period of observations to answer the following research questions:</p> <p> </p> <ol> <li> <p>How does a remote software organization that adopts CSE practices reach a shared understanding of NFRs?</p> </li> <li> <p>What are the limitations to the shared understanding of NFRs in a remote software organization that adopts CSE practices?</p> </li> <li> <p>What organizational practices for remote collaboration supported a shared understanding of NFRs?</p> </li> </ol> <p> </p> <p>In our study, we refer to our partner organization as Alpha. We used ethnography-informed methods to study Alpha's practices and processes and how they approach a shared understanding of NFRs in their product development. </p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Data Analysis</strong></p> <p>We performed a qualitative study through semi-structured interviews and observations. We use the open, axial and selective coding approach from grounded theory [1] to create our codebook, which informed the results and discussion of our study. Two independent coders held agreement sessions to discuss the codes, consolidate the codes and calculate the inter-rater reliability using the Cohen Kappa's coefficient for measuring observer agreement for categorical data [2]. </p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Artifact Descriptions</strong></p> <p>Our replication package contains three artifacts:</p> <p>1. Codebook.csv: The codebook contains rows for the list of codes used, including the code name and the description of the codes. The codes are the final set of themes derived during the thematic analysis of the interview responses. For example, 'Gaps in communication' means when interview participants describe miscommunications due to team members making assumptions about a project/process or having unclear expectations for a project.</p> <p>2. kappa-scores.csv: This contains the associated kappa values for each round of inter-rater agreement sessions. For each agreement session, the Cohen Kappa's coefficient was calculated from the number of agreements and disagreements of codes within one or two interview transcripts. The Kappa values represent the level of agreement ranging from 0 to 1, where > 0.6 represents substantial agreement. </p> <p>3. Interview-questions.csv: This contains the interview questions used in the semi-structured interviews. Some of the interview questions varied depending on the interviewee’s role, experience and the flow of the interviews.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>Usefulness</strong></p> <p>We recognize that the value and usefulness of our replication package are yet-to-be-determined. In the interest of transparency of open science, we published our artifacts. We hope that these artifacts are useful to either replicate our findings or to further analyze them to produce other enlightening results.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p><strong>References</strong></p> <p>1.

A large EEG database with users' profile information for motor imagery Brain-Computer Interface research
<p><em><strong>Context </strong></em>: <br> We share a large database containing electroencephalographic signals from 87 human participants, with more than 20,800 trials in total representing about 70 hours of recording. It was collected during brain-computer interface (BCI) experiments and organized into 3 datasets (A, B, and C) that were all recorded following the same protocol: right and left hand motor imagery (MI) tasks during one single day session.<br> It includes the performance of the associated BCI users, detailed information about the demographics, personality and cognitive user’s profile, and the experimental instructions and codes (executed in the open-source platform OpenViBE).<br> Such database could prove useful for various studies, including but not limited to: 1) studying the relationships between BCI users' profiles and their BCI performances, 2) studying how EEG signals properties varies for different users' profiles and MI tasks, 3) using the large number of participants to design cross-user BCI machine learning algorithms or 4) incorporating users' profile information into the design of EEG signal classification algorithms.<br> <br> Sixty participants (Dataset A) performed the first experiment, designed in order to investigated the impact of experimenters' and users' gender on MI-BCI user training outcomes, i.e., users performance and experience, (Pillette & al). Twenty one participants (Dataset B) performed the second one, designed to examined the relationship between users' online performance (i.e., classification accuracy) and the characteristics of the chosen user-specific Most Discriminant Frequency Band (MDFB) (Benaroch & al). The only difference between the two experiments lies in the algorithm used to select the MDFB. Dataset C contains 6 additional participants who completed one of the two experiments described above. Physiological signals were measured using a g.USBAmp (g.tec, Austria), sampled at 512 Hz, and processed online using OpenViBE 2.1.0 (Dataset A) & OpenVIBE 2.2.0 (Dataset B). For Dataset C, participants C83 and C85 were collected with OpenViBE 2.1.0 and the remaining 4 participants with OpenViBE 2.2.0.

<p><strong>Title:</strong></p> <p>Minimal Data Set for the Reproduction of Findings in "Elayan et al., Cohort Profile: The ENTWINE iCohort Study, a Multinational Longitudinal Web-Based Study of Informal Care".</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Study Summary:</strong></p> <p>The data sets provided herein are derived from the ENTWINE iCohort Study, a multinational web-based cohort study employing an intensive longitudinal design. The study integrates a two-wave panel survey (baseline and 6-month follow-up) with optional weekly diary assessments. The cohort comprises caregivers and care recipients from nine countries: the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Italy, Sweden, Israel, Germany, Greece, Poland, and Ireland. The study aimed to examine the influence of personal, psychological, social, economic, and geographic factors on caregiving experiences.</p> <p>Participants were eligible if they met the following criteria: 1) residency in a participating country; 2) capability to respond to surveys in English, Swedish, German, Dutch, Italian, Greek, Hebrew, or Polish; 3) access to the internet and ability to use it; 4) at least 18 years of age; 5) self-declared cognitive and physical capacity to complete the surveys; 6) either providing care to an adult (aged ≥ 18 years) with a chronic health condition, disability, or other care need, or receiving care from an adult due to similar conditions.</p> <p>The detailed methodology and results of the study can be found in the associated manuscript.
