- Description:
- Classification of barrier island morphology stems from the seminal work of M. O. Hayes and others, which linked island shape to tidal range and wave height and defined coastal energy regimes (i.e., wave-dominated, mixed energy, tide-dominated). If true, this general relationship represents a process-based framework to link modern and ancient systems, and is key for determining paleomorphodynamic relationships. Here we present a new semi-global database of barrier islands and spits (n = 702). Shape parameters (aspect, circularity, and roundness) are used to quantify island boundary shape, and assess potential correlation with coastal energy regime using global wave and tide models. In adopting the original energy classification as originally put forth (i.e., wave dominated, wave-influenced mixed, tide-influenced mixed, tide dominated), results show that wave-dominated islands have statistically different mean shape values from those in the mixed energy fields, but the two mixed energy designations are not distinct from each other. Furthermore, each energy regime field contains a wide range of island shapes, with no clear trends present. Linear regression modeling shows that tidal range and wave height account for < 10% of the documented variance in island shape, a strong indication that other controls must be considered. Therefore, while energy regime distinctions can be used descriptively, their utility in predicting and constraining island shape is limited: barrier island shape is not indicative of coastal energy regime, and vice versa. Our analysis also demonstrates empirical scaling relationships among modern barrier islands for the first time, with implications for subsurface prediction. and This is the dataset of the Modern Barrier Island Database published in Mulhern et al., 2017 Marine Geology paper titled "Is Barrier Island Morphology a Function of Wave and Tide Regime?" with the DOI https://doi.org/10.1016/j.margeo.2017.02.016. If using this dataset please cite both the dataset and the paper.

- Description:
- The objective of this study was to determine the influence of face shields on the concentration of respirable aerosols in the breathing zone of the wearer. The experimental approach involved the generation of poly-dispersed respirable test dust aerosol in a low-speed wind tunnel over 15 minutes, with a downstream breathing mannequin. Aerosol concentrations were measured in the breathing zone of the mannequin and at an upstream location using two laser spectrophotometers that measured particle number concentration over the range 0.25-31 µm. Three face shield designs were tested (A, B and C), and were positioned on the mannequin operated at a high and low breathing rate. Efficiency – the reduction in aerosol concentration in the breathing zone – was calculated as a function of particle size and overall, for each face shield. Face shield A, a bucket hat with flexible shield, had the highest efficiency, approximately 95%, while more traditional face shield designs had efficiency 53-78%, depending on face shield and breathing rate. Efficiency varied by particle size, but the pattern differed among face shield designs. Face shields decreased the concentration of respirable aerosols in the breathing zone, when aerosols were carried perpendicular to the face. Additional research is needed to understand the impact of face shield position relative to the source.

- Description:
- The Differential Emissivity Imaging Disdrometer (DEID) is a new evaporation-based optical and thermal instrument designed to measure the mass, size, density, and type of individual hydrometeors and their bulk properties. Hydrometeor spatial dimensions are measured on a heated metal plate using an infrared camera by exploiting the much higher thermal emissivity of water compared with metal. As a melted hydrometeor evaporates, its mass can be directly related to the loss of heat from the hotplate assuming energy conservation across the hydrometeor. The heat-loss required to evaporate a hydrometeor is found to be independent of environmental conditions including ambient wind velocity, moisture level, and temperature. The difference in heat loss for snow versus rain for a given mass offers a method for discriminating precipitation phase. The DEID measures hydrometeors at sampling frequencies up to 1 Hz with masses and effective diameters greater than 1 µg and 200 µm, respectively, determined by the size of the hotplate and the thermal camera specifications. Measurable snow water equivalent (SWE) precipitation rates range from 0.001 to 200 mm h−1, as validated against a standard weighing bucket. Preliminary field-experiment measurements of snow and rain from the winters of 2019 and 2020 provided continuous automated measurements of precipitation rate, snow density, and visibility. Measured hydrometeor size distributions agree well with canonical results described in the literature. and A new precipitation sensor, the Differential Emissivity Imaging Disdrometer (DEID), is used to provide the first continuous measurements of the mass, diameter, and density of individual hydrometeors. The DEID consists of an infrared camera pointed at a heated aluminum plate. It exploits the contrasting thermal emissivity of water and metal to determine individual particle mass by assuming that energy is conserved during the transfer of heat from the plate to the particle during evaporation. Particle density is determined from a combination of particle mass and morphology. A Multi-Angle Snowflake Camera (MASC) was deployed alongside the DEID to provide refined imagery of particle size and shape. Broad consistency is found between derived mass-diameter and density-diameter relationships and those obtained in prior studies. However, DEID measurements show a generally weaker dependence with size for hydrometeor density and a stronger dependence for aggregate snowflake mass.

- Description:
- Significance: Current medical imaging systems have many limitations for applications in cardiovascular diseases. New technologies may overcome these limitations. Particularly interesting are technologies for diagnosis of cardiac diseases, e.g. fibrosis, myocarditis, and transplant rejection. Aim: To introduce and assess a new optical system capable of assessing cardiac muscle tissue using light-scattering spectroscopy (LSS) in conjunction with machine learning. Approach: We applied an ovine model to investigate if the new LSS system is capable of estimating densities of cell nuclei in cardiac tissue. We measured the nuclear density using fluorescent labeling, confocal microscopy, and image processing. Spectra acquired from the same cardiac tissues were analyzed with spectral clustering and convolutional neural networks to assess feasibility and reliability of density quantification. Results: Spectral clustering revealed distinct groups of spectra correlated to ranges of nuclear density. Convolutional neural networks correctly classified 3 groups of spectra with low, medium, or high nuclear density with 95.00±11.77% (mean and standard deviation) accuracy. The analysis revealed sensitivity of the accuracy to wavelength range and subsampling of spectra. Conclusions: LSS and machine learning are capable of assessing nuclear density in cardiac tissues. The approach could be useful for diagnosis of cardiac diseases associated with an increase of nuclei.

- Description:
- This study aims to quantify rare earth element enrichment within coal and coal-adjacent strata in the Uinta Region of Utah and western Colorado. Rare earth elements are a subset of critical minerals used for renewable energy technology in the transition toward carbon-neutral energy. This data contains samples from seven active mines and seven stratigraphically complete cores within the Uinta Region, geochemically evaluated via portable X-ray fluorescence (n=3,113) and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (n=143) elemental abundance methods. Historical evaluations of geochemical data on Uinta Region coal and coal-adjacent data are sparse, emphasizing the statistical significance of this study’s analyses. These results support the utilization of active mines and coal processing waste piles for the future of domestic rare earth element extraction, offering economic and environmental solutions to pressing global demands.

- Description:
- The microbiology data represents the microorganisms recovered during the study period at the University of Utah hospital from samples collected from patients, environmental surfaces, and healthcare personnel (HCP) hands using premoistened sponges. Patient samples were collected daily from the axilla, groin, and perianal areas or stool. Environmental samples were collected daily from room surfaces and unit common areas (such as bed rails, overbed tables, door handles, computer keyboards, and other high-touch areas). HCP hands were periodically sampled upon HCP exit from a patient room after engaging in health care activities. Samples were collected from the 20-bed University of Utah Hospital Cardiovascular ICU (CVICU) over a 54 day period. The information from these datasets can be used to understand how different organisms appear and move throughout a hospital ward over a period of time.

- Description:
- The objective of using the wireless sensors was to improve understanding of the heterogeneity of healthcare worker (HCW) contact with patients and the physical environment in patients’ rooms. The framework and design were based on contact networks with a) nodes defined by HCW’s, rooms, and items in the room and b) edges defined by HCW’s in the room, near the bed, and touching items. Nodes had characteristics of HCW role and room number. Edges had characteristics of day, start time, and duration. Thus, patterns and heterogeneity could be understood within contexts of time, space, roles, and patient characteristics. At the University of Utah Hospital Cardiovascular ICU (CVICU), a 20-bed unit, we collected data for 54 days. HCW contact with patients was measured using wireless sensors to capture time spent in patient rooms as well as time spent near the patient bed. HCW contact with the physical environment was measured using wireless sensors on the following items in patient rooms: door, sink, toilet, over-bed table, keyboard, vital signs monitor touchscreen, and cart. HCW’s clipped a sensor to their clothing or lanyard. This dataset contains cleaned sensor pings of RFD reads between healthcare worker worn sensors and environmental sensors placed in facility using methods described in the "Data Cleaning Steps" section.

- Description:
- Isotopic data in this database includes 863 samples from 34 papers and three previously published compilations. For each sample, this database provides location, age, and reference information presented in the first columns. Locations are recorded in latitude and longitude (WGS84). The information about the location source uses the same criteria used for the elemental geochemical database (“GPS”, “Figure-Polygon” and “Figure-Point”). Age is provided according to the original source and includes two general scenarios: an age with uncertainty at 2σ level and a general estimation for the age with no associated error. Sm-Nd and Rb-Sr data are based on whole rock analysis. Lu-Hf data are based on zircon analysis. Sm-Nd data includes Sm and Nd in ppm, 147Nd/144Nd and 143Nd/144Nd in ratios, Nd uncertainties at 2σ level, and Nd values in the epsilon notation as presented in the data source. Rb-Sr data include Rb and Sr in ppm; 87Rb/86Sr, 87Sr/86Sr, and initial 87Sr/86Sr in ratios, and Sr uncertainties at 2σ level. Lu-Hf data includes 176Yb/177Hf, 176Lu/177Hf, and 176Hf/177Hf rations and their uncertainties at 2σ level, the initial 176/177Hf ratio, Hf values in the epsilon notation and Hf uncertainties at 1σ and 2σ level, all as presented in the data source. Uncertainties related to the data location and heterogenous data distribution should be considered. Samples for the two batholiths in Mongolia are concentrated in central Mongolia and include Sm-Nd and Lu-Hf data. In the Erguna and Xing’an magmatic provinces, available samples provide mainly Lu-Hf data which are relatively better distributed than in the other regions.

- Description:
- In the element database, major elements are reported in weight percent oxide (wt%). Trace element concentrations are reported in parts per million (ppm). Available lithologic information (“lithology” column) and the type of igneous sample (intrusive or extrusive in the “Sample-Type” column) were included. The name of the area or of the corresponding igneous body were included when available (“Location/Body-Name” column). The location of the samples is reported in decimal degrees (WGS84), however, uncertainties explained below must be considered. Coordinates were obtained from three different ways of presenting the information about the location. The three scenarios are distinguished as “GPS”, “Figure-Point”, and “Figure-Polygon” in the “Location-Type” column. Samples with a location in a coordinate system were transformed to decimal degrees (WGS84) and classified as “GPS”. Samples individually identified in a georeferenced geologic map were approximately located after georeferencing the map in Google Earth or ArcGis (“Figure-Point”). Samples identified with a polygon in a georeferenced map (through age, body name or unidentified sample locations), but without more detailed information were approximately located in the middle of the corresponding polygon after georeferencing the map in Google Earth or ArcGis (“Figure-Polygon”). Precise “GPS” locations were obtained for 358 analyses, and approximate locations were obtained for 428 analyses. The age information was organized using three categories: “Age-Approximation”, “Age-number”, and “Age-Error”. “Age-approximation” corresponds to the age information from original paper or from an additional reference detailed in the “Reference-Age” column. “Age-number” corresponds to the age reported in the original paper or previous compilation, or to the average age calculated from a given age range. “Age-Error” corresponds to the error presented in the original paper or previous compilation, or to half of the age range. Information about the methods, analyzed material and laboratory name was included when available. Lastly, the original data sources are available in the “Reference” column. References from previous compilations incorporated in this database are specified as “Compilation-Reference”. Additional references used for constraining the age are detailed in “Reference-Age” column. Data that were incorrectly reported (e.g., reporting average compositions instead of sample composition) or with anomalous trace element concentrations were filtered-out from the element database. Analyses from weathered or altered samples producing high total volatile content (LOI> 5 wt%) were removed. Samples with no available information to approximately locate them or to constrain their age were eliminated. Despite this screening process, the database suffers from uncertainties related to approximated ages and locations and variable information regarding the lithology, and availability of trace elements The inhomogeneity in this database is explicit and uncertainties related to the age and location should be carefully considered in any interpretation. The final compilation contains 787 geochemical analyses (major, minor and trace elements) and includes data from 36 studies.

- Current treatments for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections require intravenously delivered vancomycin; however, systemically delivered vancomycin has its problems. To determine the feasibility and safety of locally delivering vancomycin hydrochloride (~25 mg/Kg) to the medullary canal of long bones, we conducted a pharmacokinetics study using a rat tibia model. We found that administering the vancomycin intraosseously resulted in very low concentrations of vancomycin in the blood plasma and the muscle surrounding the tibia, reducing the risk for systemic toxicity, which is often seen with traditional intravenous administration of vancomycin. Additionally, we were able to inhibit the development of osteomyelitis in the tibia if the treatment was administered locally at the same time as a bacterial inoculum (i.e., Log10 7.82 CFU/mL or 6.62x107 CFU/mL), when compared to an untreated group. These findings suggest that local intramedullary vancomycin delivery can achieve sufficiently high local concentrations to prevent development of osteomyelitis while minimizing systemic toxicity.

- Description:
- Datasets include interviews and observations of healthcare staff in 25 long-term care facilities across 7 states and two data collection visits to understand frequency, type, and reason (i.e., types of care activities provided during an interaction) for staff-resident interactions in 2019 and 2020. Staff-resident interactions were studied to examine potential for multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO) transmission within long-term care settings.

- Description:
- Background: To assess the demographic and attitudinal factors associated with HPV vaccine initiation and completion among 18–26 year old women in Utah. Method: Between January 2013 and December 2013, we surveyed 325 women from the University of Utah Community Clinics about their HPV vaccine related beliefs and behaviors. Odds ratios (ORs) were estimated from logistic regression models to identify variables related to HPV vaccine initiation and series completion. Results: Of the 325 participants, 204 (62.8 %) had initiated the vaccine and 159 (48.9 %) had completed the 3-dose series. The variables associated with HPV vaccine initiation were lower age (OR = 1.18 per year); being unmarried (OR = 3.62); not practicing organized religion (OR = 2.40); knowing how HPV spreads (OR = 6.29); knowing the connection between HPV and cervical cancer (OR = 3.90); a belief in the importance of preventive vaccination (OR = 2.45 per scale unit); strength of doctor recommendation (OR = 1.86 per scale unit); and whether a doctor’s recommendation was influential (OR = 1.70 per scale unit). These variables were also significantly associated with HPV vaccine completion. Conclusion: The implications of these findings may help inform policies and interventions focused on increasing HPV vaccination rates among young women. For example, without this information, programs might focus on HPV awareness; however, the results of this study illustrate that awareness is already high (near saturation) in target populations and other factors, such as strong and consistent physician recommendations, are more pivotal in increasing likelihood of vaccination. Additionally, our findings indicate the need for discussions of risk assessment be tailored to the young adult population.
