Scenario Planning Management Actions to Restore Cold Water Stream Habitat Data

This data repository holds modeling inputs and output from a project that compared various restoration and management actions influence on stream temperature. Three study systems were used in this effort that include the Middle Fork John Day River, South Fork Nooksack River, and Wind River basins of Oregon and Washington states in the USA. The spatial stream network (SSN) models used in this project were previously developed and published in the Journal of American Water Resources Research (doi: 10.1111/1752-1688.13158). These models were used to make predictions in each study basin that reflected restoration and management goals within each system. The predictions for temperature changes were then compared individually as well as in a combined management activity scenario. This repository holds the input data for the SSN models as well as the prediction output from each modeling scenario for each basin.

3D Printers Emissions of Environmentally Persistent Free Radicals (EPFRs)

Polymers used in 3D printing are known to emit hazardous materials when heated. While the emissions from pristine polymers and some filaments have been studied, many filaments contain additives that may influence their hazardous emissions. This research used a variety of commercially-available 3D printer filaments to assess the possibly formation of environmentally persistent free radicals (EPFRs), a class of surface-bound free radicals that have much longer lifetimes compared to their gas-phase counterparts. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy was used to successfully identify EPFRs in particulate matter collected during regular 3D printer use. These findings should influence future studies on 3D printer emissions to include consideration of EPFR formation. These methodologies may be used by EPA's Chemical Safety and Pollution Prevention (OCSPP), Consumer Protection and Safety Commission (CPSC), and National Institute of Occupational of Safety and Health (NIOSH).

2012-2020 Greenhouse Gas National- and State-Level Emission Totals by Industry

These data represent annual greenhouse gas (GHG) emission totals by industry sectors and households for the total U.S. and by state, for years 2012 to 2020. Industry sectors are defined by North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) 2012 codes, with additional codes added for households and government.
Emissions of 16 different GHGs, which are the same GHGs as reported in the U.S. GHG Inventory, are included. 
Values are given in total kilograms emitted for the given year, sector and location.

Data are provided in two alternative formats, as Excel files and as Apache parquet files.
The Excel files include:
1) GHGs by 114 aggregate level sectors by state and year,
2) GHGs by 114 aggregate level sectors by year for the U.S., and
3) GHGs by 540 detailed sectors by year for the U.S. 
The Excel files use a simplified version (not all fields included) of the Flow-by-Sector format (see link to format specification below). 
The parquet files align with the Excel files except are also separated by year, and provide the complete flow by sector format, where files with "state_m1" correspond to the aggregate level state datasets, files with "national_m1" correspond to the aggregate level national dataset, and files with "national_m2" correspond to the aggregate level state datasets, 
Standard metadata files in JSON format, and log and validation files in text format (with .log extension) are provided for each parquet file. 

The data are a product of updated sector attribution models that improve upon the National Greenhouse Gas Industry Attribution Model.  
 The models used to generate the national aggregate and the state datasets are sector attribution models coded in the FLOWSA v2.0.0 tool (https://github.com/USEPA/flowsa/tree/v2.0.0). The national detailed datasets are developed with FLOWSA v2.0.1 (https://github.com/USEPA/flowsa/tree/v2.0.1).
