title: Data from: "A guide to using GitHub for developing and versioning data standards and reporting formats"

description: These data are the results of a systematic review that investigated how data standards and reporting formats are documented on the version control platform GitHub. Our systematic review identified 32 data standards in earth science, environmental science, and ecology that use GitHub for version control of data standard documents. In our analysis, we characterized the documents and content within each of the 32 GitHub repositories to identify common practices for groups that version control their documents on GitHub.In this data package, there are 8 CSV files that contain data that we characterized from each repository, according to the location within the repository. For example, in 'readme_pages.csv' we characterize the content that appears across the 32 GitHub repositories included in our systematic review. Each of the 8 CSV files has an associated data dictionary file (names appended with '_dd.csv' and here we describe each content category within CSV files.There is one file-level metadata file (flmd.csv) that provides a description of each file within the data package.

title: In-situ measurements of chemically and radiatively important atmospheric gases from the Advanced Global Atmospheric Gas Experiment (AGAGE) and affiliated stations.

description: In the ALE/GAGE/AGAGE global network program, continuous high frequency gas chromatographic measurements of four biogenic/anthropogenic gases (methane, CH4; nitrous oxide, N2O; hydrogen, H2; and carbon monoxide, CO) and several anthropogenic gases that contribute to stratospheric ozone destruction and/or to the greenhouse effect have been carried out at five globally distributed sites for several years. The program, which began in 1978, is divided into three parts associated with three changes in instrumentation: the Atmospheric Lifetime Experiment (ALE), which used Hewlett Packard HP5840 gas chromatographs; the Global Atmospheric Gases Experiment (GAGE), which used HP5880 gas chromatographs; and the present Advanced GAGE (AGAGE). AGAGE uses two types of instruments: a gas chromatograph with multiple detectors (GC-MD), and a gas chromatograph with mass spectrometric analysis (GC-MS). Beginning in January 2004, an improved cryogenic preconcentration system (Medusa) replaced the absorption-desorption module in the GC-MS systems at Mace Head and Cape Grim; this provided improved capability to measure a broader range of volatile perfluorocarbons with high global warming potentials. The Medusa GC-MS systems were subsequently used at other AGAGE stations (Trinidad Head, Barbados, American Samoa, Zeppelin, Jungfraujoch, and Goan) after the initial setup at Mace Head and Cape Grim. More information may be found at the AGAGE home page: https://agage.mit.edu/instruments.Compared to the previous version (https://data.ess-dive.lbl.gov/view/doi:10.3334/CDIAC/ATG.DB1001), the latest update (Agage_gcmd_gcms_data_2021_04_07_tar.gz) includes 6 months of new data through the end of March 2020. Two new compounds, HCFC-132b, and HCFC-133a, are also included in this version. For a complete list of released compounds and used standard scales, please see “AGAGE_scale_2021_v1.pdf” file. Additional information can also be found on the AGAGE website (https://agage.mit.edu).

title: Data from : "Warming promotes loss of subsoil carbon through accelerated degradation of plant-derived organic matter". Blodgett warming experiment

description: This dataset contains data used for the paper: Warming promotes loss of subsoil carbon through accelerated degradation of plant-derived organic matter. Soil Biology and Biochemistry 156, 108185. doi:10.1016/j.soilbio.2021.108185On April 2018 (after 4.5 years of warming), we collected O-horizon (organic horizon) material and soil core down to 90 cm depth from a whole-soil warming experiment in a mixed-coniferous temperate forest, located at the University of California Blodgett experimental forest in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada, CA USA. The goal was to assess how 4.5 years of +4 °C whole-soil warming affected the quantity and quality of soil organic matter. Cores were collected from 6 experimental plots (three replicated blocks); samples were collected in 10 cm increments from 0 to 90 cm depth.This dataset contains a compressed (.zip) archive of the data used for this manuscript. The dataset includes files in .xlsx format, which can be accessed and processed using MS Excel or R. Carbon and nitrogen concentrations, as well as stable carbon isotope composition ((δ13C) and solvent extractable lipid biomarker (alkanoic acids and alkanes) data are provided as processed data files. Diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform (DRIFT) spectroscopy data are provided as raw output and processed data files.The dataset files "Blodgett_warming_Data" and "Blodgett_warming_raw_data.xlsx" were updated on July 7, 2021. The following updates were made: (1) specification of the units of measurements in the dataset (the unit of measurement was missing in some parameters) and (2) the column name "pulled depth" was changed to "pooled depth" in the updated data files.

title: ORNL FACE Tree Height, with data on height of a subset of trees measured every year, 1997-2009. Free-Air CO2 Enrichment (FACE) Experiment Synthesis Activities.

description: Height of 20 sweetgum trees in three rows of each of the plots in the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) free-air CO2 enrichment (FACE) experiment was measured each year of the experiment (1997-2009). The trees were exposed to ambient or elevated CO2. Tree height data contribute to the overall project objectives to determine the integrated response of a deciduous forest to elevated CO2. Average tree height per plot was used in allometric equations to calculate tree dry mass each year and to test whether there were effects of elevated CO2 on canopy development. Height was derived from trigonometric calculation from measurements of horizontal distance of observer from the bole and the angles from observer’s eye to top and base of tree, using a Haglof sonic hypsometer. The data are presented in a csv file, with plot number in the first column, tree number in the second column, and height recorded to 0.1 m in 1997 to 2009 in remaining columns. Plots 1 and 2 had elevated CO2, and plots 3-5 were in ambient CO2. Missing data occur after the tree died. The experiment and the height measurement are described in: Norby, R. J., D. E. Todd, J. Fults, and D. W. Johnson. 2001. Allometric determination of tree growth in a CO2-enriched sweetgum stand. New Phytologist 150: 477-487.

title: ESS-DIVE reporting format for field measurements of soil respiration

description: This is a new data and metadata reporting format for soil respiration data, based on engagement with a wide range of researchers in the earth and ecological sciences as well as expert advisory panels. Reporting formats are intended to be ‘bottom-up’, community-developed documents and templates that can enable consistent, findable, accessible, interoperable, and reproducible (FAIR) data; our goal was a reporting format that would be relevant and useful for synthesis activities, optimizing data discoverability and usability while not placing an undue burden on data contributors. The format is split into two levels of information—metadata about chambers (used to measure soil respiration in the field), and the measured data themselves. The file data_reportingformat_template.xlsx contains information on how the data table should be structured, including field names, field descriptions, and units; the chammetadata_reportingformat_template.xlsx file contains similar information for the chamber-level metadata. Fundamentally, this format aims to enable FAIR data through an easy-to-use guide for data providers interested in formatting their data in a common way, and provide ‘future-proofing’ capabilities to support reanalyses of soil respiration data, a globally-important component of the carbon cycle.

title: The LAKE model input dataset for three Arctic lakes

description: This dataset contains meteorological data collected for three Arctic lakes and compiled to satisfy input requirements of the LAKE 2.0 model. The dataset was generated to act as a benchmarking dataset for future model-data inter-comparisons. The LAKE 2.0 model simulates temperatures within the water later and the sedimentary layer of a lake. The LAKE2.0. is an open-source code and available to download via this weblike http://tesla.parallel.ru/Viktor/LAKE/-/wikis/LAKE-model (last visit July 14, 2021). The meteorological data are required to simulate the surface energy balance at the surface of a lake. This dataset includes a compilation of the meteorological data pulled from multiple data streams, including National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) climate data, Circumarctic Lakes Observation Network (CALON) data, and the United States Geological Survey (USGS) data. The data were compiled for three Arctic lakes: FoxDen (66.55877, -164.45670), Atqasuk (70.452497, -156.951984), and Toolik (68.63150, -149.60740). Each meteorological data is in comma-delimited format (file extension ‘.dat’) and includes eight columns: Temperature [K], Pressure [Pa], longwave downward radiation [W/m2], shortwave downward radiation [W/m2], “U” wind speed [m/s], ”V” wind speed [m/s], humidity [kg/kg], precipitation [m/s]. In addition to the meteorological data file, we included setup and driver files. The Toolik lake is the deepest out of three lakes and has inflowing and outflowing groundwater data. InflowOutflowREADME.txt has more information about inflow and outflow flies. The other two lakes are much shallower and modeled as a closed system (i.e. no water inflow or outflow).

title: ESS-DIVE Reporting Format for Hydrologic Monitoring Data and Metadata

description: The ESS-DIVE Reporting Format (RF) for Hydrologic Monitoring Data and Metadata was designed for water level, temperature, electrical conductivity, specific conductance, dissolved oxygen, and pH measured in situ using sensors deployed in water bodies. It can also be applied to a broader suite of variables beyond its original scope. The RF is intended to provide clear and easy guidance to data generators aiming to upload consistent findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR) datasets. The RF includes instructions (pdf), a term guide (csv), templates (csv and xlsx), and a list of recommended vocabulary (csv) to equip the data generator with all of the tools needed to successfully apply the RF. There is also a crosswalk to some key data resources and standards (csv). Users should cite this dataset when using the RF but are encouraged to access the RF files on GitHub (https://github.com/ess-dive-community/essdive-hydrologic-monitoring) where the RF documentation is maintained and updated on the ESS-DIVE Community Space GitHub. Questions and suggestions for improvement can be submitted as GitHub issues.

title: Nutrient and carbon concentrations in dated soil cores at US-OWC Ameriflux wetland site (OWC NERR)

description: Soil cores were sampled at the Old Woman Creek (OWC) National Estuarine Research Reserve at the south shore of Lake Erie, near Huron, Ohio, USA. OWC is a temperate mineral soil marsh. We dated the soil cores using lead isotope analysis and measured the concentrations of carbon and nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus) throughout the core depths. We analyzed 36 cores, sampled along three transects at areas of the wetland with different hydrological regimes. Each transect included three coring sites at different water depth categories (shallow, intermediate deep) with four core samples per coring site. The data can be used to determine the carbon sequestration rates and nutrient accumulation rates, at multiple locations throughout OWC wetland.Dataset, in csv format, with data variables in columns, and different cores and core depths slices in rows, includes results from 36 sediment cores (0-30 cm depth) taken at 9 locations (4 replicates at each location) along 3 gradients of water depth (shallow, intermediate, deep), each at a different hydrologic location (outflow, backflow, middle). At each depth slice within a core, we provide depth, date (using 210Pb), bulk density, and the concentrations of carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, d13C, and d15N.

title: VotE-Dams: a compilation of global dams' locations and attributes (v1)

description: This dataset represents a compilation of two global and three USA-specific datasets of dam locations and their attributes. The major hurdle toward developing this compilation was the identification of duplicates within the source datasets, especially given the variable precision of dam location coordinates. The most immediately-useful product in this dataset is a spreadsheet (VotE-Dams_v1.csv) that documents the unique dams found across the datasets, their coordinates, and their ids within the respective source datasets. We do not reproduce the source datasets (GRaND, GOODD, GeoDAR, NID, and EHA) here, but their download locations are provided in the README files ('Overview' tab). Some of the source datasets are provided as shapefiles, which require geospatial data software to open (e.g. QGIS/ArcGIS for graphical display, geopandas for Python, rgdal for R, many others freely available). The provided README documents metadata of the source datasets and provides attribute-linking information (i.e. matches attributes among various source datasets that contain the same, or similar, information but have different names). Note that the README is provided as both .xslx and a collection of .csvs (one per tab in the .xslx file). We suggest using the .xlsx version that preserves images, formatting, and sheets. .xlsx files can be viewed using (free) Google Docs or Microsoft Excel.Finally, we provide Technical Documentation.pdf that describes the procedures used to identify unique and duplicate dams.The title of this dataset refers to our 'Veins of the Earth' (VotE) project, which seeks to provide a flexible, scale-free representation of the Earth's river networks. Dams are a critical component of VotE as they heavily influence flows throughout river networks.

title: Aged and unaged pine wood pyrogenic organic matter: mineralization, elemental analysis and spectroscopy data (February 2020)

description: In this study, we used a pyrogenic organic matter (PyOM) degrading Streptomyces isolate – a globally common soil bacterium – to investigate the effects of physical (freeze-thaw and wet-dry), chemical (oxidation), and biological (microbial community incubation) ageing on the chemical properties and mineralizability of 350°C and 550°C pine wood PyOM. We used Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and elemental analysis to characterize the aged and unaged PyOM, and cavity ring-down spectroscopy to trace CO2 emissions. The carbon (C) mineralization data from incubation of aged and unaged PyOM with the isolate are provided in co2cmg_picarro_022020.csv. This dataset contains raw carbon dioxide (CO2) data measured on the cavity ring-down spectroscopy over 1 month of incubation. The dataset also includes processed data such as cumulative CO2 emitted over multiple cycles of measurement and CO2 values normalized by the total carbon content in each PyOM treatment. The carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen elemental content of aged and unaged 350°C and 550°C pine wood PyOM are provided in CHN_pyom.csv. The relative peak heights measured during the FTIR analysis of aged and unaged PyOM are provided in ftir_peaks_rel.csv.

title: ESS-DIVE Reporting Format for Amplicon Abundance Table

description: While standardized sequencing data is available in public repositories and efforts such as MIxS for common sample collection and processing metadata are well established, the lack of common bioinformatic processing metadata has hindered the ability to do large-scale metaanalyses and the potential for data re-use by non-experts such as ecosystem, watershed, or earth system modelers. To address this need for Department of Energy researchers, we have developed an amplicon reporting format which captures both sample preparation and bioinformatic processing metadata and stores processed amplicon data as a paired abundance table and sequencing file to maximize the potential for re-use of these data. To aid in the adoption of accessible and reproducible analysis workflows, this reporting format was developed in concert with amplicon functionality within the Department of Energy’s Systems Biology Knowledgebase (KBase) to ensure common data and metadata requirements and facilitate seamless transfer between these platforms.This dataset contains support documentation for the amplicon reporting format (README.md and instructions.md), templates for both bioinformatic and sequencing metadata (amplicon_bioinformatic_metadata_template_2021_10_03.csv and amplicon_sequencing_metadata_template_2021_10_03.csv), a crosswalk indicating how this reporting format relates to the current MIxS format (ESSDIVE-MIxS_crosswalk.csv), a list of available instrument terms (amplicon_seq_instrument_terms_2021_10_03.csv), a map between QIIME2 parameter settings and metadata fields (amplicon_qiime2_plugin_metadata_map.csv), a data dictionary (amplicon_CSV_dd.csv), and file-level metadata (amplicon_FLMD.csv).

title: ESS-DIVE Reporting Format for Location Metadata

description: The ESS-DIVE location metadata reporting format provides instructions and templates for reporting a minimum set of metadata for discrete point locations in geographic space represented by x, y, and z coordinates. This format was created based on a need for earth and environmental science researchers to more consistently provide metadata about locations where they conduct studies. To create the format, we incorporated elements from ESS-DIVE’s community reporting formats as well as 12 additional data standards or other data resources (e.g., databases, data systems, or repositories). In the template, we ask researchers to indicate unique locations using Location IDs and indicate hierarchies of locations through parent location IDs. We also provide additional optional fields for researchers to indicate how they measured the point location and the date and time that the location was first used as a research siteThis dataset contains support documentation for the reporting format (README.md and instructions.md), a terminology guide (guide.md), a crosswalk indicating how this reporting format relates to existing standards and data resources (Location_metadata_crosswalk.csv), a data dictionary (dd.csv), file-level metadata (flmd.csv), and the location metadata templates in both CSV (Location_metadata_template.csv) and Excel formats (Location_metadata_template.xlsx).

title: ESS-DIVE Reporting Format for Sample-based Water and Soil Chemistry Measurements

description: The ESS-DIVE (Environmental Systems Science Data Infrastructure for a Virtual Ecosystem) reporting format for sample-based water and soil chemistry measurements are written guidelines and spreadsheet templates, that facilitate archiving water/soil/sediment chemistry data. The templates and terminology lists provided as part of the reporting format can help organize data and potentially enable data reuse.The reporting format consists of a general instructions file (instructions.md) as well as more detailed instructions files for each template (files beginning “Detailed_Instructions_*.md). The “examples” folder includes an example of each data template with just the limited set of required fields filled out as well as other examples with both required and optional fields complete.The 'templates' folder contains CSV templates for data, methods, and terminology file templates. Similar to the examples folder, the blank templates are provided with versions for required fields only as well as required and optional fields. Lastly, the term list folder provides common terminology used in each of the templates as well as a definition and any constraints for the fields.
