Green Roofs - Shapefile

This map and corresponding dataset provide the location, satellite images and square footage of existing green roofs within the City of Chicago.

This dataset is in ESRI shapefile format. To view or use these files, compression software and special GIS software, such as ESRI ArcGIS, is required. This information is derived from an analysis of high-spatial resolution (50cm), pan-sharpened, ortho-rectified, 8-band multi-spectral satellite images collected by Digital Globe’s Worldview-2 satellite. The City supplied the consultant with a 2009 City boundary shapefile to determine the required extent of the imagery. Acquisition of three different strips of imagery corresponding to the satellite’s paths was required. These strips of imagery spanned three consecutive months and were collected in August 2010 (90% coverage), September 2010 (5% coverage) and October 2010 (5% coverage). The results of the analysis include overall count of vegetated roofs, their total square footage, and the ratio of required to elective vegetated roofs. A total of 359 vegetated roofs were identified within the City of Chicago. The total square footage of these vegetated roofs was calculated to be approximately 5,469,463 square feet. The ratio of required vegetated roofs to elective vegetative roofs was 297:62 (~5:1). The median size of the vegetated roofs was calculated to be 5,234 square feet.

COVID-19 Daily Vaccinations - Administered in Chicago - Historical

NOTE: This dataset has been retired and marked as historical-only.

COVID-19 vaccinations administered at sites in the City of Chicago, as reported by medical providers in Illinois Comprehensive Automated Immunization Registry Exchange (I-CARE). In contrast to some other COVID-19 vaccination datasets, this one focuses on vaccinations given within the City of Chicago, rather than necessarily those given to people who live in Chicago. 

Daily counts are shown for the total number of doses administered, first dose, and second dose, as well as cumulative totals as of that date. Initial vaccines required two doses of vaccine to be administered over a period of time specific to each vaccine brand. At least one future vaccine only required one dose to be considered fully vaccinated. While these doses completed the series, additional doses have been approved for some situations and are included in the Total Doses columns.

Vaccinations are counted based on the day the vaccine was administered.  

All data are provisional and subject to change. Information is updated as additional details are received and it is, in fact, very common for recent dates to be incomplete and to be updated as time goes on. At any given time, this dataset reflects data currently known to CDPH. 

Numbers in this dataset may differ from other public sources due to when data are reported and how City of Chicago boundaries are defined.  

For information about the number of vaccine doses administrated to Chicago residents and number of residents considered fully vaccinated regardless of if they were vaccinated in Chicago, see https://data.cityofchicago.org/Health-Human-Services/COVID-19-Daily-Vaccinations-Chicago-Residents/2vhs-cf6b.

Data supporting amphibian thyroid model parameterization

This dataset was generated to support parameterization of a larval amphibian thyroid axis computational model. Specifically, plasma iodine levels were determined not only to inform a concentration value for model parameter specification in the model, but also to support the notion that aquatic and terrestrial species should be considered substantially different with regard to circulating iodide levels. Other computational model physical parameters were informed by evaluating Xenopus laevis thyroid gland histological images for morphological features including thyroid follicular cell numbers and areas.

Evaluation of Complex Mixture Toxicity: An Effects-Driven Analysis in the Milwaukee Estuary (WI, USA)

Anthropogenic activities introduce complex mixtures into aquatic environments, necessitating the evaluation of mixture toxicity during ecological risk assessments. There are many new approach methodologies (NAMs) that can be used to complement traditional approaches for conducting mixture assessments. This study aimed to demonstrate how traditional approaches and NAMs can be integrated and employed for mixture evaluation in a target watershed. Assessments were carried out over two years (2017 – 2018) across 8 – 11 study sites in the Milwaukee Estuary (WI, USA). Whole mixtures were evaluated on a site-specific basis by deploying caged fathead minnows (Pimephales promelas) alongside composite samplers for 96-h and characterizing chemical composition, in vitro bioactivity, and in vivo effects in collected water and tissue samples. Chemicals were grouped based on structure/mode of action, bioactivity, and pharmacological actions. Significant chemical/mixtures were identified by assessing contributions to cumulative toxicity units (maximum cumulative ratio analyses) and predictive relationships with measured effects (random Forest regression). Whole mixture assessments identified specific target sites for further evaluation in the Milwaukee Estuary, including four sites impacted by industrial chemical/fuel/polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon mixtures, four sites impacted by pharmaceutical mixtures, two sites requiring further experimental evaluation, and one low impact site. Constituent-based and predictive analyses identified twelve mixtures and twelve chemicals which significantly contributed to and/or predicted cumulative effects, thus representing priority targets for further ecotoxicological evaluation, monitoring, or regulatory assessment. Overall, this study represents an important complement to single-chemical prioritizations, providing a more comprehensive evaluation of cumulative effects of chemicals detected in a target watershed. Furthermore, it demonstrates diverse tools and techniques that can be employed and adapted for future mixture risk assessments in aquatic environments.

Equilibrium and kinetic sorption of heavy metals by poultry litter biochar: pH-dependency and modeling

[4:05 PM] Reed, Coral
Biochars with high phosphate (P) contents are promising amendments to remediate metal-contaminated soils due to their ability to form stable metal-P precipitates. However, their performance is usually assessed at a single pH. This study investigated the sorption of Pb, Cu, Zn, Cd, and Ni by poultry litter (PL) biochar across a pH range using sorption edge, isotherm, and kinetics experiments. Metal sorption was strongly pH-dependent with increased sorption at higher pH. The affinity of the PL biochar for the metals decreased in the order of Pb>>Cu>Zn>Cd>Ni. In all cases, ≤21% of the sorbed metals were exchangeable, indicating that stable metal-biochar associations were formed. Sorption kinetics experiments demonstrated that reaction rates were slower at pH 4.5 than 6.5 for Pb, Cu, and Cd whereas those for Zn and Ni were unaffected by pH. The results suggested that metal-P precipitation was favored for Cu, Cd, and Zn at pH≥5.5, or Pb at any pH. This indicates that PL-derived biochars can be effective amendments for contaminated soils given that the soils are not too acidic. Experimental data were described using a pH-dependent Freundlich-type isotherm and its kinetic analog. Sorption edges and isotherms were reasonably described for Pb, Zn, Cd, and Ni (r2≥0.83). Kinetics data were best described using model parameters obtained from sorption edge experiments due to similarities between the input metal concentrations. This modeling approach has superior descriptive capabilities than traditional empirical approaches while maintaining relative simplicity. Moreover, pH-dependent equilibrium and kinetic sorption can be described using a single set of parameters.

Data on Mineral-Organic Interactions in PFAS Retention by AFFF Impacted Soil

Data were collected to develop a comprehensive, generalized approach to predict the retention of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from aqueous film forming foam (AFFF) by a soil matrix as a function of PFAS molecular and soil physiochemical properties was developed. An AFFF with 34 major PFAS (12 anions and 22 zwitterions) was added to uncontaminated soil in one-dimensional saturated column experiments and PFAS mass retained was measured. PFAS mass retention was described using an exhaustive statistical approach to generate a poly-parameter quantitative structure-property relationship (ppQSPR). This dataset is not publicly accessible because: The senior author generated the data and has the data.  At the time he was a graduate student at Oregon State University.
