Caged and resident fish, Newton Creek, Superior WI, 2017

In 2017 the Wisconsin DNR reported observation of a high incidence of fish with fin erosion in Newton Creek, which originates near the site of the Calumet (later Husky) oil refinery and flows approximately 2 miles through the city of Superior, WI, before discharging at the Hog Island Inlet of the Superior Bay. In fall 2017, the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s (US EPA) Office of Research and Development (ORD), Mid-Continent Ecology Division (now Great Lakes Toxicology and Ecology Division; GLTED) conducted several studies (two caged fish exposures and one resident fish collection) aimed at elucidating potential causes of the fin erosion phenotype reported. These studies were conducted in coordination and cooperation with both the Wisconsin DNR and Calumet/Husky refinery. 

Results include:
1) Morphological data for fathead minnows caged in Newton Creek or Faxon Creek (reference) from September 27-October 11, 2017 (pilot study).
2) Morphological data for resident fish collected from Newton Creek and Faxon Creek on October 12, 2017 (resident fish collection)
3) Morphological data for fathead minnows caged in Newton Creek or Faxon Creek from October 16-30, 2017 (2nd study), along with analytical data on metals, PAHs, selected ions, suspended solids, nutrients, and in vitro bioactivity for composite water samples collected at the same locations and over the same time period.

Evaluations in support of the development of aquatic life criteria for major geochemical ions

This dataset provides data files and software regarding the report "EVALUATIONS IN SUPPORT OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF AQUATIC LIFE CRITERIA FOR MAJOR GEOCHEMICAL IONS: TOTAL ION TOXICITY VERSUS CALCIUM FOR SEVERAL AQUATIC SPECIES".  This includes eight excel files containing data on multiple tests (of different salts, salt mixtures, and test conditions) regarding the acute toxicity of major geochemical ions to eight aquatic species.  These data provide the chemistry of test solutions at median lethal conditions in these tests and were used in subsequent analyses described in the report to derive the relationships for total ion toxicity versus calcium concentration for these eight species (for subsequent use in criteria development).  A Word file describing these files is provided, and additional files regarding the analyses are archived and subject to request.  The dataset also provides two zip files containing software used in these analyses, including software for determining concentration-response curves (to quality assure author-reported LC50s during report preparation) and the software for establishing the total ion toxicity vs calcium relationships.  Each zip file contains an executable file and the Fortran code used to build these executables for code review as desired, but are not recompilable into a new executables without Winteracter (a Fortran-based user interface development application). 

This dataset is associated with the following publication:

Initial Characterization of the NREL Large Amplitude Motion Platform (LAMP)

The Large Amplitude Motion Platform (LAMP) at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) Water Power Technology Validation Facility is a six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) motion platform intended to be used for dry testing of wave energy converters (WECs) and other marine energy devices.

This MHKDR submission contains data collected during an initial characterization of the LAMP. The intent of this characterization was to run the LAMP through a series of gradually more complex motion profiles to understand how the LAMP performs when it is pushed to and beyond the limits specified by the manufacturer. The data collected during this characterization is provided in this submission along with documentation of the provided data including a test log detailing the specifications of each individual test run, a data set description "NREL LAMP Characterization Dataset Description-v001.html" detailing the contents of the command and response datasets, a command dataset that includes multiple generated motion profiles, and a response dataset that contains a subset of the LAMP output including the commanded and response 6-DOF position, velocity and acceleration. This dataset is intended to be used by researchers and developers working on marine energy devices to prepare for testing on the LAMP by understanding the required LAMP data inputs and expected outputs.

The data generated during this characterization was collected using the LAMP built-in data acquisition system. The data was originally recorded in a proprietary binary format and has been converted to Parquet format for ease of use. The data has been filtered to only include 6-DOF motion inputs and outputs.

BETA - Intermodal Freight Facilities Liquid Bulk

The BETA release of the BETA - Intermodal Freight Facilities Liquid Bulk dataset was compiled on November 28, 2023 and was completed on January 19, 2024 from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) and is part of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)/Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) National Transportation Atlas Database (NTAD). This dataset maps polygons with attributes for port facilities that handle the liquid bulk commodity. This includes liquid materials that are transferred in bulk as opposed to containerized transport. Liquid bulk is most commonly transferred by three (3) modes of transportation: Truck, Rail or Barge. An intermodal facility is defined as a location where two (2) or more modes of transportation are serviced. Locations included in this dataset represent facilities where bulk liquids do not change state (e.g., refinement, liquefaction, manufacturing, fueling, etc.). Data was sourced from the public domain from March 2023 to November 2023. Prioritization of data collection was put towards collecting data for facility locations serviced by ship or barge. Excluded are Intermodal facilities which include pipelines as that is covered in the NTAD Intermodal Freight Facilities Pipeline Terminals.  Note that terminal locations are prone to change ownership.  A data dictionary, or other source of attribute information, is accessible at https://doi.org/10.21949/1529991
