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.
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.
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).
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.
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.
This dataset contains room occupancy during the study period at University of Utah hospital. Admission, Discharge, and Transfer (ADT) data is captured in participating hospitals to characterize room occupancy and non-occupancy in wards. These data are pulled from multiple sources collected during the study by study staff as well as harvested EHR data. Data were adjudicated and compiled into one comprehensive file. Data manipulation included redaction of dates, replaced with study days 1-n, as well as transformation from long format to wide for ease of use.
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.
