Probabilistic state-level estimates of US coastal storm property damages from climate change
<p>Probabilistic estimates of property damage (2010 USD) by damage mechanism, sea level measure, region, and time period. Values are derived from <em>Estimates of US coastal damages by local sea level </em>(doi: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.820149) using the code at https://github.com/ClimateImpactLab/acp-impacts</p> <p>Direct (surge + wind) and business-interruption storm damage estimates as well as estimated property below sea level are projected by estimating damages as a function of local sea level (LSL). These damage functions are then applied to probabilistic estimates of local sea level from Kopp et al (2014) using a Monte Carlo simulation. Percentiles of the resulting distributions are presented in the included files. Estimates of property below sea level are calculated for both mean sea level (MSL) as well as mean higher high water (MHHW).</p> <p>In each period, estimates of the cumulative value of inundated property, or property below sea level, are removed from the exposure data set when computing future storm damages; therefore, projections of future storm damages differ between the two measures of sea level.</p>
Fledging of Leach's Storm-Petrel chicks from Gull Island
<p>We used passive integrated transponder (PIT) tags to track the exact time and date that Leach's Storm-Petrel (<em>Hydrobates leucorhous</em>) chicks fledged from their burrow. The data included here are the last read for each of 123 chicks tracked in 2017, 2018, 2021, and 2022 on Gull Island, Witless Bay Ecological Reserve, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. We also include morphometric measurements of each chick that was banded and tagged for this study.</p>
Data used in "The Complex Role of Storms in Modulating Air-Sea CO2 Fluxes in the sub-Antarctic Southern Ocean"
<p>The data included in this repository were used to generate the figures for the paper "The Complex Role of Storms in Modulating Air-Sea CO2 Fluxes in the sub-Antarctic Southern Ocean" in Geophysical Research Letter.</p> <p>Abstract:</p> <p>"The intra-seasonal CO<sub>2</sub> flux (FCO<sub>2</sub>) variability across the Southern Ocean is poorly understood due to sparse observations at the required temporal and spatial scales. Twinned Waveglider-Seaglider experiments were used to investigate how storms influence FCO<sub>2</sub> through both the gas transfer velocity (k<sub>w</sub>) and the air-sea gradient in partial pressure of CO<sub>2</sub> (ΔpCO<sub>2</sub>) in the sub-Antarctic zone. Winter-spring storms caused ΔpCO<sub>2</sub> to weaken (by 15-55 μatm) due to mixing/entrainment and weaker stratification. This response in ΔpCO<sub>2</sub> was in phase with k<sub>w</sub> resulting in a counteractive weakening in FCO<sub>2</sub> (by 6.6 - 26.5% per storm), despite the wind-driven increase in k<sub>w</sub>. Stronger stratification during summer explained the weaker sensitivity of ΔpCO<sub>2</sub> to storms, instead its thermal drivers dominated the ΔpCO<sub>2 </sub>variability. These results highlight the importance of observing synoptic-scale variability in ΔpCO<sub>2</sub>, the absence of which may propagate significant biases to the mean annual FCO<sub>2</sub> estimates from large-scale observing programmes and reconstructions."</p> <p>The data collected from the Wave Glider, such as the concentration of CO<sub>2</sub> in the atmosphere (xCO<sub>2air</sub>) and in the ocean (xCO<sub>2sea</sub>), surface temperature and salinity were used to calculate the different parameters of the bulk CO<sub>2</sub> flux formula (FCO<sub>2</sub> = k<sub>w</sub> x ko x ΔpCO<sub>2</sub>). Note that the meteorological weather station of one of the Wave Gliders was faulty and the wind speed, wind direction and wind stress data was replaced by hourly ERA5 data provided by ECMWF available at <a href="https://doi.org/10.24381/cds.bd0915c6">https://doi.org/10.24381/cds.bd0915c6</a>. </p> <p>The temperature, pressure and salinity data collected by the Seaglider were used to calculate the Mixed Layer Depth and the Brunt Vaisala Frequency of the first 300m of the ocean.</p>
MCIT storm tracks with updraft radar data for large hail cases in the United States (2013 - 2023)
<p>Storm tracking data from 114 hail days in the United States between 2013 and 2023. Cases were selected based on the availability of abundant Storm Prediction Center (SPC) hail reports (either at least 20 reports of hail > 1 cm or five reports > 10 cm) in a range between 20 and 90 km from a NEXRAD radar site. Only cases in a geographic area from 28-48°N and 105-90°E, roughly corresponding to the U.S. Great Plains, were considered. Cells are quality filtered based on these criteria: (1) Cell center within 120 km of the radar range, and (2) continuous tracking for at least 6 timesteps (approx. 30 minutes, depending on radar scan rate). SPC hail data is matched to tracking timesteps. We used this data to train a Random Forest model for hail size nowcasting.</p> <p>Further metadata can be requested from the authors.</p>
24-hour HYSPLIT-STILT back-trajectories initialized at Storm Peak Laboratory, Colorado from April 1, 2022 to May 1, 2022
<p>This dataset was compiled to accompany the manuscript Lee et al., titled "Elevated Tropospheric Iodine over the Central Continental United States: Is Iodine a Major Oxidant of Atmospheric Mercury?", submitted to AGU Geophysical Research Letters.</p> <p>24-hour HYSPLIT-STILT back trajectories were initialized at Storm Peak Laboratory, Colorado (40.455 degrees North, 106.744 degrees West) every three hours from April 1, 2022 to May 1, 2022 at initial altitudes of 5, 2000, 4000, 6000, 8000, and 10000 meters above ground level. In the model, Storm Peak Laboratory is 2890 meters above sea level (3209.848 meters above sea level in reality). One thousand back trajectories were initialized at each time-altitude pair, then averaged in three dimensions (latitude, longitude, altitude) to generate a single back trajectory for each time-altitude pair.</p> <p>Each file is named using the following convention: "STILT_StormPeakLaboratory_yyyymmdd_HHMMutc.txt", where yyyy is the four-digit year, mm is the two-digit month, dd is the two-digit day, HH is the two-digit hour, and MM is the two-digit minute. The date and time in the filename denote the back-trajectory initialization time (UTC).</p>

THE ROLE OF HOMOCYSTEINE AS A BIOMARKER OF CYTOKINE STORM IN IMMUNOONCOLOGY AND THERAPY OF COVID-19
<p>Homocysteine is a sulfur-containing amino acid that can act as an important biomarker of inflammatory processes, including cytokine storm, observed in various pathological conditions such as cancer and COVID-19. In the conditions of the cytokine storm characteristic of severe forms of COVID-19 and progressive stages of cancer, elevated homocysteine levels can increase oxidative stress and inflammatory reactions, which, in turn, exacerbates tissue and organ damage. Studies show that homocysteine can play a significant role in the pathogenesis of these conditions, affecting the vascular and immune systems. Thus, monitoring of homocysteine levels is important for the diagnosis, prognosis and development of new therapeutic strategies in the field of immuno-oncology and treatment of COVID-19.</p>
