High-frequency, long-term measurements of water quality and chlorophyll in the Tempe Town Lake, Tempe, Arizona, USA, ongoing since 2018
Constructed in 1997, the Tempe Town Lake is a small reservoir that transforms a section of the typically-dry Salt River bed into a 224-acre lake in the heart of Tempe, Arizona. To accommodate the river when it flows, the lake features hydraulically-operated steel gates that allow water to pass through the system unimpeded. The lake has been a remarkable success as a community amenity and as a driver of economic growth in the area around the lake. The lake provides an ideal model system for the many artificial lakes constructed in arid-land cities owing to management decisions, such as draining, that affect their operation and ecology. At the same time, dramatic shifts in hydrology and chemistry when the lake is transformed to a flowing river and back into a Lake during and after floods, provide opportunities to study the system's dynamic evolution to new limnological steady states. The CAP LTER began measuring water quality, including temperature, pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and total dissolved nitrogen (TDN) in the lake starting 2005. Initially, these data were collected through a mix of hand-held meters and analyses of water samples collected during regular visits to the lake (e.g., see [knb-lter-cap.630](https://portal.edirepository.org/nis/mapbrowse?scope=knb-lter-cap&identifier=630)). In summer 2018, the CAP LTER installed a *in situ* datasonde to measure water quality, including optical dissolved organic carbon characteristics, at high temporal resolution (~ 30 minutes). After a brief period during which data were collected both with the datasonde, and by hand-held meters and analyses of water samples, the project transitioned to collecting data exclusively with the datasonde. The data presented here reflect readings captured by the datasone.
Conservation and Economic Data for New England Towns 1990-2015
Land protection, whether public or private, is often controversial at the local level because residents worry about lost economic activity. We used panel data and a quasi-experimental impact-evaluation approach to determine how key economic indicators were related to the percentage of land protected. Specifically, we estimated the impacts of public and private land protection based on local area employment and housing permits data from 5 periods spanning 1990-2015 for all major towns and cities in New England. To generate rigorous impact estimates, we modeled economic outcomes as a function of the percentage of land protected in the prior period, conditional on town fixed effects, metro-region trends, and controls for period and neighboring protection. Contrary to narratives that conservation depresses economic growth, land protection was associated with a modest increase in the number of people employed and in the labor force and did not affect new housing permits, population, or median income. Public and private protection led to different patterns of positive employment impacts at distances close to and far from cities, indicating the importance of investing in both types of land protection to increase local opportunities. The greatest magnitude of employment impacts were due to protection in more rural areas, where opportunities for both visitation and amenity-related economic growth may be greatest. Overall, we provide novel evidence that land protection can be compatible with local economic growth and illustrate a method that can be broadly applied to assess the net economic impacts of protection.
Salt marsh decomposition rates using Tea Bag Index in two Southeastern MA marshes in the towns of Fairhaven and Dartmouth from 2020-2022.
Natural disturbances, sea level rise, and historic human impacts to salt marshes have increased impounded water on marsh surfaces, resulting in vegetation loss and the associated loss of important ecosystem services such as carbon storage. Runnels are a climate adaptation technique designed to restore salt marsh habitat by reestablishing a tidal connection between impounded water and a nearby drainage feature. However, panne formation and runnel restoration can alter carbon decomposition. We measured decomposition using the Tea Bag Index at two marshes, one in Fairhaven and the other in Dartmouth, MA. We repeated measurements for three years: 1 year prior to runnel creation, and two years post. We measured decomposition at three spatial zones, the center of the panne, landward of the panne, and seaward of the panne.
Water-quality monitoring in Tempe Town Lake, Tempe, Arizona, USA (2005-2021)
Constructed in 1997, the Tempe Town Lake is a small man-made reservoir that transforms a section of the typically-dry Salt River bed into a 224-acre lake in the heart of Tempe, Arizona.

The Bomber's Baedeker. A Guide to the Economic Importance of German Towns and Cities
<p>The Bomber's Baedeker</p> <p>The two-volume printed work “The Bomber's Baedeker. A Guide to the Economic Importance of German Towns and Cities” was produced during the Second World War by the British Foreign Office and the Ministry of Economic Warfare. It lists towns and cities of the German Reich with more than a thousand inhabitants and information on their war-related infrastructure, industrial and production facilities. Only four verified copies still exist worldwide and none of them have been accessible for scholarly digital use until now. “The Bomber's Baedeker” was re-discovered in 2019 in the library of the Leibniz Institute of European History (IEG), digitised in cooperation with the Mainz University Library and made accessible and processed by the Digital Historical Research | DH Lab and the Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences as part of a cross-institutional cooperation (including courses with students) so that “The Bomber's Baedeker” can now be used, analysed and processed as an open, machine-readable data source in compliance with FAIR principles.</p>

Transcriptomic atlas reveals organ-specific disease tolerance in sickle cell mice. Dataset for bone marrow, HbSS Townes mice injected or not with heme
<p>The objective of this experiment was to explore the transcriptome of the HbSS Townes mouse model of sickle cell disease. Townes model mice carry several human hemoglobin knock-in genes replacing the endogenous mouse genes and may be useful in studying sickle cell disease. All mice were genotyped, age- and sex-matched littermates. All HbAA (control, normal human hemoglobin) vs HbSS (sickle cell disease, mutated human hemoglobin) mice were used for experimentations at 6-8 weeks of age, to limit intra-group heterogeneity. Hemin (Ferriprotoporphyrin IX) was purchased from Frontiers Scientific and injected intravenously (iv.) in a retroorbital sinus at a concentration of 24 µmol/kg. Control mice received PBS instead. Mice were anesthetized with isoflurane 2-3% for injections, blood collection and sacrifice. All mice were sacrificed by cervical dislocation, 4 hours after injection.</p> <p>Here the dataset for HbSS mice injected or not with heme is uploaded.</p> <p>The corresponding dataset for the HbAA mice injected or not with heme can be found at <strong>10.5281/zenodo.10961162</strong></p> <p>Bone marrow RNA was extracted by Macherey Nagel kit, according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The quality and quantity of mRNA were evaluated using a 2100<br>bioanalyzer with TNA 6000 NanoKits (all Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA, USA). RNA Integrity Numbers superior to 7 were eligible for subsequent reverse transcription into cDNA. RNAseq was performed at the GenomIC plateform Cochin Institute INSERM U1016. After RNA extraction, RNA quality (RNA integrity number) was estimated. 1μg of high-quality total RNA sample (RIN &gt;7) was processed to build up the libraries, using TruSeq Stranded mRNA kit (Illumina) according to manufacturer instructions. Briefly, purified poly-A containing mRNA molecules were fragmented and reverse-transcribed using random primers. Replacement of dTTP by dUTP during second strand synthesis allowed us to achieve strand specificity. Addition of a single A base to the cDNA was followed by ligation of Illumina adapters.<br>Libraries were quantified by qPCR using KAPA Library Quantification Kits for Illumina Libraries (KapaBiosystems, Wilmington, MA). Library profiles were assessed using DNA High Sensitivity LabChip kits on an Agilent Bioanalyzer. Libraries were sequenced on an Illumina Nextseq 500 instrument using 75 base-lengths read V2 chemistry in a paired-end mode. After sequencing, primary analysis based on AOZAN software (ENS, Paris), was applied to demultiplex and control the quality of the raw data (based of FastQC modules / version 0.11.5).</p> <p>The dataset here represents 4 groups of mice, 4 mice per group as follows: HbAA PBS, HbAA heme, HbSS PBS, HbSS heme. </p> <p> </p>
