We employed a mixed-methods approach with a survey and follow-up individual interviews. In both the survey and interviews, participants were asked to evaluate information written for the general public or a scholarly audience. Participants in the interviews were encouraged to think aloud to elucidate their criteria. We analyzed quantitative data using descriptive statistics and coded qualitative data using inductive thematic analysis.
This dataset containts post-processed data from 3 radiative-convective equilibrium simulations run by the System for Atmospheric Modeling (SAM). The scripts to produce the data and recreate the figures/tables of Garrett et al. 20XX are also included. SAM's configuration files and restart files are provided for those interested in recreating the full dataset of the simulations or creating new test cases.
This dataset includes the GEOS-Chem model output and python scripts required to reproduce work outlined in 'Potential Air Quality Side-Effects of Emitting H2O2 to Enhance Methane Oxidation as a Climate Solution' by Mayhew and Haskins. The study investigates the predicted change to a selection of air pollutants resulting from the addition of elevated point sources of H2O2 to GEOS-Chem to simulate a proposed methane mitigation technology. The efficiency of this technology is also assessed according to a simplified theoretical framework which is tested against the GEOS-Chem output.
Skull thickness distributions were collected from infants under 12 months of age (n=266). Data-driven age groups were established based on the variability of skull thickness with age. By providing anatomical standards and guidelines for each age and sex group, this work aims to improve consistency in infant head trauma modeling studies.
This is a data set for generating current densities used for the validation of two methods. Similarly, it gives the electric fields for the 80-minute validation of the two methods. Furthermore, the partial transfer function method calculated electric fields are also deposited in this dataset. Similarly, the spectrum of each source and impulse response obtained from the FDTD model are also included. Finally, the electric fields were obtained for 8 hours using the PTF method.
Whole-cell recordings from the anuran inferior colliculus. The data is averaged & representative whole-cell recordings, stats and code used for the analysis.
Data were collected from the free online available International Ionosphere Reference (IRI) database ( https://kauai.ccmc.gsfc.nasa.gov/instantrun/iri) for January 1, 2020. The data were then interpolated from 1km to our desired resolution of 0.1km. This is is profile used to simulate the 3D FDTD models to observe the propagation of power line harmonic radiation through the ionosphere.
This repository includes all seismograms we used for the 58 earthquakes occurring in the New Guinea area and recorded in North America that our analyzed in our paper: Investigating ultra-low velocity zones as sources of PKP scattering beneath North America and the Western Pacific Ocean: Potential links to subducted oceanic crust. AGU Advances, in review.
This dataset includes seismic waveforms for an event used in the study "Effects of 2.5-D ultra-low and ultra-high velocity zones on flip-reverse-stacking (FRS) of the ScS wavefield". In addition, because ultra-high velocity zone (UHVZ) synthetic computations can be challenging when using ray based methods, we include our full waveform solutions for 1-D and 2.5-D UHVZ models as discussed in our manuscript. These can be used to benchmark other methods.
The dataset contains velocity measurements along the fiber optic cable connecting the University of Utah campus to the University of Utah Downtown data center (875 West Temple, Salt Lake City, UT). The data has been collected using the Distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) system that records the vibration signals along 8.4 km long optical fiber every 4.9-m interval with a sampling rate of approximately 1000 Hz. The fiber is mainly installed along the red line of TRAX, which is the light rail system of the Utah Transit Authority. The route intersects the East Bench fault, which is known as an active fault segment of the Wasatch Fault zone. Although no earthquake signals were detected, the velocity data converted to strain rate clearly show the operation of trains between the stations at 450 S Main Street and 900 South 200 West. Analysis of this dataset is expected to provide insights into seismic velocities at shallow depths and structures associated with fault scarps. and See README file for data retrieval instructions.
This dataset includes electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) measurements collected around the Great Salt Lake (GSL). This was supported through an NSF Rapid proposal. These preliminary measurements form a baseline by which to do ERT measurements to detect ground-water changes around GSL.
As strong cooling agents in the climate system, marine low-level clouds are an important component of the climate system. Demonstrating how marine low-level clouds respond to anomalies in the atmospheric general circulation in the present climate has the potential to be illustrative of how low clouds might change in a future climate. We examine how thermodynamic factors that control low cloud occurrence change during an ENSO cycle and then how low clouds observed by the CloudSat and CALIPSO satellites vary. In addition to the well-known decrease in marine low clouds in the Northeast Pacific during El Niño onset in June, July and August (JJA), we also find significant increases in the low cloud occurrence on the flanks of the anomalously warm water in the Equatorial Central Pacific during December, January and February (DJF). These low cloud changes are linked to measurable changes in the Earth’s energy budget with net warming of the Earth system during JJA and cooling of the Earth system during DJF.
This is the python code to create the figures for the paper about the above research.
The spectral data required to reproduce the results from the paper "Intraoperative characterization of cardiac tissue: the potential of light scattering spectroscopy," published in the Journal of Biomedical Optics.
We conducted a qualitative study using a phenomenological approach in India’s Spiti Valley between August and October 2023. Sixteen individuals, age 18 years and older, participated in one-on-one interviews. The interviews were transcribed from Hindi into English, reviewed for accuracy by a native speaker, and imported into Dedoose software. Data were analyzed using inductive coding. These are the raw data sheets associated with this study. Ethics approval was provided by the University of Utah’s Institutional Review Board (IRB:00167060).
Evaluator responses to compliance, understandability, actionability, and readability criteria, by base and type, for Hearing Conservation educational materials from active-duty, continental United States Air Force bases.
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.
This collection includes radial component displacement seismograms in the time window including the SKS, SKKS and SPdKS seismic arrivals. These data all interact with ultra-low velocity zone (ULVZ) structures at the core-mantle boundary beneath East Asia. Data used in the study of Festin et al., 2024 (TSR) is included in this collection.
The data from the Digital Library Outreach and Instruction survey is intended to discover how digital library practitioners at various types of cultural institutions promote their unique resources, beyond simply placing content in an online repository for users to discover. Types of outreach investigated include social media promotion, integration of digital collections into teaching and instruction activities, and partnerships with external campus units or community organizations.
