Light Environment in Hemlock Removal Experiment at Harvard Forest since 2003

The impending loss of hemlock trees due to hemlock woolly adelgid (Adelges tsugae) infestation is expected to lead to changes in the light environment of the forest understory. These changes will both drive succession and will themselves be altered by successional processes. The light reaching the forest floor is measured using hemispherical canopy photographs. Photographs were taken in summer of 2003 and in December 2004 and May 2005 (both deciduous-tree leaf-off condition), prior to the application of the logging and girdling treatments, and then in September 2005 (deciduous tree leaf-on condition) after logging and girdling. Subsequent photographic series will be taken annually in spring (leaf-off) and summer/fall (leaf-on).

Environment and History in a Rich Mesic Forest in Western Massachusetts 1999-2001

In rich mesic forests, modern vegetation varies among primary versus post-agricultural, secondary forests, in part as a result of differential rate and ability of forest herbs to colonize after disturbance. Species with seeds lacking morphological adaptations for dispersal (barochores) and those which produce seeds with elaisomes to encourage ant dispersal (myrmecochores) may remain less frequent in secondary forests for decades or more.

Long-term Dynamics of Vegetation and Environment in Central Massachusetts 1000-2000

Historical and ecological data from north-central Massachusetts suggest that widespread and intensive human disturbance after European settlement led to a shift in forest composition and obscured regional patterns of species abundance. A paleoecological approach was required to place recent forest dynamics in a long-term context. Pollen and charcoal data from 11 small lakes in north-central Massachusetts were used to reconstruct local vegetation dynamics and fire histories across the region over the past 1000 years. The sites are located across an environmental gradient. Paleoecological data indicate that prior to European settlement, there was regional variation in forest composition corresponding to differences in climate, substrate, and fire regime. Oak, chestnut and hickory were abundant at low elevations, whereas hemlock, beech, sugar maple, and yellow birch were common at high elevations. Fire appears to have been more frequent and/or intense at lower elevations, maintaining high abundances of oak, and archaeological data suggest Native American populations were greater in these areas. A change in forest composition at higher elevations, around 550 years before present, may be related to the Little Ice Age (a period of variable climate), fire, and/or activity by Native Americans, and led to regional convergence in forest composition. After European settlement, forest composition changed markedly in response to human disturbance and there was a sharp increase in rates of vegetation change. Regional patterns were obscured further, leading to homogenization of broad-scale forest composition. There is no indication from the pollen data that forests are returning to pre-European settlement forest composition, and rates of vegetation change remain high, reflecting continuing disturbance to the landscape, despite regional reforestation.

Benchmarking on Microservices Configurations and the Impact on the Performance in Cloud Native Environments

<p><strong>The peer reviewed publication for this dataset has been published in LCN 2022, 47th Annual IEEE Conference on Local Computer Networks. Please cite this paper when referring to the dataset: https://www.eurecom.fr/publication/6971.</strong></p> <p>Cloud-native and containerization have changed the way to develop and deploy applications. Cloud-native rethinks the application architecture by embracing a microservice approach, where each microservice is packaged into containers to run in a centralized or an edge cloud. When deploying the container running the micro-service, the tenant has to specify the needed computing resources to run their workload in terms of the amount of CPU and memory limit. However, it is not straightforward for a tenant to know in advance the computing amount that allows running the microservice optimally. This will have an impact not only on the service performances but also on the infrastructure provider, particularly if the resource overprovisioning approach is used. To overcome this issue, we conduct an experimental study aiming to detect if a tenant&#39;s configuration allows running its service optimally. We run several experiments on a cloud-native platform, using different types of applications under different resource configurations. The obtained results are presented in the accepted IEEE LCN paper (https://www.eurecom.fr/publication/6971) and are shared in this dataset.</p> <p>The datasets are collected for 3 types of applications: Web servers written in python and Golang, RabbitMQ data broker and the OpenAirInterface&nbsp;5G Core network function AMF (Access and Mobility Management Function).</p> <p><br> &nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Web Servers:</strong></p> <p><strong>files:&nbsp; </strong>golang-web-server-performance.csv, python-web-server-performance.csv</p> <p>We used Golang and Python-based web servers for the test.

COgnitive intervention to Restore attention using nature Environment (CORE) study data

<p>The COgnitive intervention to Restore attention using nature Environment (CORE) study is single-blinded, two-group randomized-controlled pilot trial among patients with heart failure. The aims to test the preliminary efficacy of the newly developed Nature-VR, a virtual reality-based cognitive intervention that is based on the restorative effects of nature. The Nature-VR intervention group viewed 3-dimensional nature pictures using a virtual reality headset for 10 minutes per day, 5 days per week for 4 weeks (a total of 200 minutes). The active comparison group, Urban-VR, viewed 3-dimensional urban pictures using a virtual reality headset to match the Nature-VR intervention in intervention dose and delivery mode, but not in content. In this study, 73 participants with heart failure completed the baseline and randomized to either Nature-VR or Urban-VR. The target outcomes were attention, self-care of heart failure, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL). After baseline data collection, 4 follow-up data were collected at 4, 8, 26, and 52 weeks.</p>

Efficacy and fate of fluridone applications for control of invasive submersed aquatic vegetation in the estuarine environment of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta

We conducted a study in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta to determine efficacy of the widely used herbicide fluridone in an estuarine ecosystem. The primary goal of SAV removal was restoration of open water habitat for endangered Hypomesus transpacificus (Delta Smelt). Over 18 months and multiple sets of multi-week fluridone applications, we monitored concentrations of fluridone and responses by SAV across pairs of treated and reference sites. Fluridone concentrations in the water were generally below the 2-5 parts per billion required for SAV control. Monitoring demonstrated these low water concentrations were likely due to dissipation by tides, despite use of pelleted fluridone formulations marketed for flowing water environments. Fluridone did, however, accumulate in sediment at concentrations hundreds of times higher than those measured in the water. Nonetheless, we did not observe lasting reductions in SAV abundance or changes in SAV community composition. By demonstrating lack of efficacy of one of the few herbicides permitted for use in this estuary, this study highlights the need for development of SAV management tools tailored to the challenges of hydrologically complex environments like estuaries.

Examination of protein-like fluorophores in chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) in a wetland and coastal environment for the wet and dry seasons of the years 2002 and 2003 (FCE)

Water samples are collected at the end of the dry and the wet season from all LTER sites and stored on ice until return to the lab. They are pre-filtered through pre-combusted GF/F filters and ultrafiltered and concentrated with a Pellicon 2 Mini tangential flow ultrafiltration system.Concentrated samples were then analyzed using fluorescence and SEC-HPLC. This CDOM optical study revealed the presence of two classes of compounds associated with the protein-like peak (peak T; excitation/emission (Ex/Em) maxima at around 280 nm/325 nm), which have very different chemical structures and ecological roles. In addition to proteins, we propose phenolic compounds as possible origins of peak T in coastal and wetland environments. In this study, natural water samples were obtained from subtropical rivers and estuarine environments within the Florida Coastal Everglades (FCE) ecosystem. The samples were ultra-filtered and excitation-emission fluorescence matrices (EEMs) were obtained. The EEMs showed the presence of four peaks with Ex/Em maxima at around 280 nm/325 nm (T), less than 260 nm/460 nm (A), 300 nm/412nm (M), and 350 nm/470 nm (C). To better understand the nature of peak T, the components originating this peak were separated using size exclusion chromatography (SEC) and detected by fluorescence emission at Ex/Em = 280 nm/325 nm. The elution curves revealed the presence of two elution peaks at a molecular weight of greater than 50K (void volume; T1) and around 7.6K (T2). This result suggested the need of cautious interpretation in the use of peak T as a proxy for the detection of proteinaceous materials in wetland and estuarine environments, since significant amounts of potentially interfering phenolic compounds are leached from senescent biomass in wetland and coastal ecosystems. As such EEM spectra of gallic acid an important component of hydrolysable tannins, and condensed tannins extracted from red mangroves (Rhizophora mangle) showed the presence of a peak maxima

Curated mode-of-action data and effect concentrations for chemicals relevant for the aquatic environment

<p>Chemicals in the aquatic environment can be harmful to organisms and ecosystems. Knowledge on effect concentrations as well as on mechanisms and modes of interaction with biological molecules and signaling pathways is necessary to perform chemical risk assessment and identify toxic compounds. To this end, we developed criteria and a pipeline for harvesting and summarizing effect concentrations from the US ECOTOX database for the three aquatic species groups algae, crustaceans, and fish and researched the modes of action of more than 3,300 environmentally relevant chemicals in literature and databases. We provide a curated dataset ready to be used for risk assessment based on monitoring data and the first comprehensive collection and categorization of modes of action of environmental chemicals. Authorities, regulators, and scientists can use this data for the grouping of chemicals, the establishment of meaningful assessment groups, and the development of <em>in vitro</em> and <em>in silico</em> approaches for chemical testing and assessment.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>The collection of spatial information and maps of the past and environment in the Uralic languages speaker area consists excessive amount of multidisciplinary data related to the vast region extending from Eastern Europe to Siberia, encompassing countries like Russia, Finland, and parts of Scandinavia. Uralic speakers are predominantly found in this region, with historical roots in areas around the Ural Mountains and adjacent territories. These datasets can be integrated for multidisciplinary purposes, allowing to explore human-environment interactions, migration patterns, and cultural evolution over time. Datasets are collected initially by the BEDLAN team <a href="https://bedlan.net/">https://bedlan.net/</a>&nbsp; - a research group specialized in various disciplines - linguists, archaeologists, geneticists, and geographers. The data collection and mapmaking have grown beyond the initial stages (publications, applications, exhibitions), hence collaborative effort for data publishing is now crucial. As the data collections and mapmaking continue to evolve dynamically together with ongoing projects, the current repository will be updated accordingly.</p>

Robot@Home2, a robotic dataset of home environments

<p>The Robot-at-Home dataset (<strong>Robot@Home</strong>, paper&nbsp;<a href="http://mapir.uma.es/papersrepo/2017/2017-raul-IJRR-Robot_at_home_dataset.pdf">here</a>) is a collection of raw and processed data from five domestic settings compiled by a mobile robot equipped with 4 RGB-D cameras and a 2D laser scanner. Its main purpose is to serve as a testbed for semantic mapping algorithms through the categorization of objects and/or rooms.</p> <p>This dataset is unique in three aspects:</p> <ul> <li>The provided data were captured with a rig of 4 RGB-D sensors with an overall field of view of 180&deg;H. and 58&deg;V., and with a 2D laser scanner.</li> <li>It comprises diverse and numerous data:&nbsp;<em>sequences of RGB-D images and laser scans</em>&nbsp;from the rooms of five apartments (87,000+ observations were collected),&nbsp;<em>topological information</em>&nbsp;about the connectivity of these rooms, and&nbsp;<em>3D reconstructions</em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>2D geometric maps</em>&nbsp;of the visited rooms.</li> <li>The provided ground truth is dense, including&nbsp;<em>per-point annotations</em>&nbsp;of the categories of the objects and rooms appearing in the reconstructed scenarios, and&nbsp;<em>per-pixel annotations</em>&nbsp;of each RGB-D image within the recorded sequences</li> </ul> <p>During the data collection, a total of 36 rooms were completely inspected, so the dataset is rich in contextual information of objects and rooms. This is a valuable feature, missing in most of the state-of-the-art datasets, which can be exploited by, for instance, semantic mapping systems that leverage relationships like <em>pillows are usually on beds</em> or <em>ovens are not in bathrooms</em>.</p> <p><strong>Robot@Home2</strong></p> <p><a href="https://github.com/goyoambrosio/RobotAtHome2">Robot@Home2</a>, is an enhanced version aimed at improving usability and functionality for developing and testing mobile robotics and computer vision algorithms. It consists of three main components.

Battery-less Environment Sensor Using Thermoelectric Energy Harvesting From Soil-Ambient Air Temperature Differences

<p>The data set contains the data collected from experiments sites in Belgium ( Campus Drie Eiken, University of Antwerp, 51.161&deg; N, 4.408&deg; W) and Iceland ( Forhot, 64.008&deg; N, 21.178&deg; W) for the research and evaluation of a battery-less environment sensor powered by energy harvesting. The device uses the temperature difference between soil and air to produce energy with the help of a Thermoelectric Generator (TEG) and powers a wireless sensor node. The data set includes data collected from 2 phases of the study. One during the initial evaluation phase where we collected soil temperatures at 15 cm and air temperature to evaluate the possibilities of producing energy from the temperature differences. Using these data, we estimated the energy production capacity for both sites. Further, a proof-of-concept device was developed, and its performance was evaluated with field experiments. During this process, we collected the voltage level of the storage unit, i.e,&nbsp;&nbsp;the capacitor, air and soil temperatures and the TEG output voltage. During both phases, the same methods were employed to collect data. The voltage values were measured with a 12-bit ADC and the temperature was measured with 1-Wire temperature sensor. Further, the collected data were transferred to cloud storage in real-time for further analysis and evaluation.&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li><strong>cde_mseasurements_oct2020-nov2020.csv</strong> <ul> <li>&nbsp;Soil temperature and air temperature data from the Campus Drie Eiken at the&nbsp; University of Antwerp, Belgium.
