title: Simulation data for replicating the results and figures of the study, "A general metric for the similarity of both stochastic and deterministic system dynamics"

description: <p>
This
dataset allows for the replication of all results and figures
appearing in the paper "A
general metric for the similarity of both stochastic and
deterministic system dynamics"
forthcoming in the journal <i>Entropy</i>.
The scripts for running all experiments and for generating figures
can be found at <a href="https://github.com/jantzen/distance_metric">https://github.com/jantzen/distance_metric</a>,
and code for the methods tested in these experiments is attainable
through the PyPI package "eugene" (e.g., via "pip
install eugene") or at <a href="https://github.com/jantzen/eugene">https://github.com/jantzen/eugene</a>.
However, by themselves these scripts will not exactly reproduce the
data we reported. This is because most of our numerical experiments
involve a stochastic component such that one cannot generate exactly
the same data twice. We have therefore preserved in this dataset the
specific results of the experimental runs reported in the published
study.</p>

title: Gypsy moth trap catches, VA 2000 - 2016

description: An accurate quantitative relationship between key characteristics of an insect population, such as season-long and peak abundances, can be very useful in pest management programs. To the best of our knowledge, no such relationship has been established. Here we establish a predictive linear relationship between insect catch  during the week of peak abundance, the length of seasonal flight period,  (number of weeks) and season-long cumulative catch (abundance) . The derivation of the equation is based on several general assumptions, and does not involve fitting to experimental data, which implies generality of the result. A quantitative criterion for the validity of the model is presented. The equation was tested using extensive data collected on captures of male gypsy moth Lymantria dispar (L.) (Lepidoptera: Erebidae) in pheromone-baited traps during 15 years. The model was also tested using trap catch data for two species of mosquitoes, Culex pipiens (L.) (Diptera: Culicidae) and Aedes albopictus (Skuse) (Diptera: Culicidae), in Gravid and BG-sentinel mosquito traps, respectively. The simple, parameter-free equation approximates experimental data points with relative error of 13% and R2 = 0.997, across all of the species tested. For gypsy moth, we also related season-long and weekly trap catches to the daily trap catches during peak flight. We describe several usage scenarios, in which the derived relationships are employed to help link results of small-scale field studies to the operational pest management programs.

title: Sediment Sampler Designs for the NSF funded project: Development of an active layer seafloor sampler as an add-on unit for portable free-fall penetrometers (OCE 1434938)

description: Subaqueous sediment dynamics impact on a large number of issues in the coastal zone and the marine environment, such as coastal erosion and evolution, marine slope stability, navigable water depth, stability of offshore structures, as well as the seafloor as a habitat. One of the unsolved questions with regard to subaqueous sediment dynamics is the thickness, density and particle distribution within the mobile seafloor surface layer. The project aims to develop a mobile seafloor sediment sampler as an add-on unit for portable free-fall penetrometers. The capability of sampling the density, thickness and sedimentological composition of the mobile seabed sediments would pave the way for new studies and insights in the field of subaqueous geomorphology and morphodynamics, sediment dynamics, marine geology, as well as coastal and offshore engineering and seafloor geotechnical engineering. It would contribute directly to the site-specific and systematic understanding of subaqueous sediment transport and scour, and would fill gaps in current knowledge regarding bedload transport. Thus, the resulting instrument will potentially initiate new interdisciplinary collaborations, and address a variety of modern environmental and societal issues. The development will also impact significantly on the career and following research path of the principal investigator whose work is aiming to bridge the gap between subaqueous sediment dynamics and geotechnical engineering. A graduate research assistant working on the development will be educated and trained in detail in sediment transport theories and practice, in-situ marine geotechnics, and coastal and offshore surveying. The fact that a major part of the testing will be conducted on Virginia Tech's campus will allow insight to other students, possibly full classes, and an easy transfer of the gained knowledge and procedures into the class room. Particularly, female students will benefit from the principal investigator as a role model for female researchers in the still male-dominated field of ocean technology and offshore surveying.

The mobile seafloor surface layer sampler will be developed as an add-on unit for portable free-fall penetrometers which have been applied for the investigation of sediment mobilization processes for several years. A sampling tube with sealing mechanism will be integrated in the steel tip of the free-fall penetrometer, building a sampling unit that will allow collection of small sediment samples while geotechnical profiling. The project will include the development, manufacture and detailed testing of the add-on unit. Test procedures will feature controlled laboratory tests in a soil test chamber, tests of the effects of impact velocity, and proof-of-concept in the field.

title: Fort Drum, NY Acoustic Data and R code

description: With the declines in abundance and changing distribution of white-nose syndrome–affected bat species, increased reliance on acoustic monitoring is now the new “normal.” As such, the ability to accurately identify individual bat species with acoustic identification programs has become increasingly important. We assessed rates of disagreement between the three U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service–approved acoustic identification software programs (Kaleidoscope Pro 4.2.0, Echoclass 3.1, and Bat Call Identification 2.7d) and manual visual identification using acoustic data collected during summers from 2003 to 2017 at Fort Drum, New York. We assessed the percentage of agreement between programs through pairwise comparisons on a total nightly count level, individual file level (e.g., individual echolocation pass call file), and grouped maximum likelihood estimate level (e.g., probability values that a species is misclassified as present when in fact it is absent) using preplanned contrasts, Akaike Information Criterion, and annual confusion matrices. Interprogram agreement on an individual file level was low, as measured by Cohen's Kappa (0.2–0.6). However, site-night level pairwise comparative analysis indicated that program agreement was higher (40–90%) using single season occupancy metrics. In comparing analytical outcomes of our different datasets (i.e., how comparable programs and visual identification are regarding the relationship between environmental conditions and bat activity), we determined high levels of congruency in the relative rankings of the model as well as the relative level of support for each individual model. This indicated that among individual software packages, when analyzing bat calls, there was consistent ecological inference beyond the file-by-file level at the scales used by managers. Depending on objectives, we believe our results can help users choose automated software and maximum likelihood estimate thresholds more appropriate for their needs and allow for better cross-comparison of studies using different automated acoustic software. A list of the files in the dataset, including a brief description of the types of files can be found in the 'Fort Drum, NY Acoustic Data and R code Text File.txt'

title: Machine-Learning Coupled Cluster Properties through a Density Tensor Representation

description: This work focuses on the oxidation resistance of a new class of composites, chromium carbide coated silicon carbide-nanostructured ferritic alloy (Cr 3 C 2@ SiC-NFA), in a water vapor containing atmosphere at 500–1000° C. Oxidation temperature effects on surface morphologies, scale characteristics, and cross-sectional microstructures are investigated and analyzed. The Cr 3 C 2@ SiC content in the composites is strongly associated with the oxidation resistance by forming a dense Cr-and Si-rich inner-layer, which can be explained based on the Thermo-Calc simulation. The fundamental understandings offer important guidance for the applications of this class of composites in nuclear reactors and high temperature moist environments.

title: Apheloria polychroma, a new species of millipede from the Cumberland Mountains (Polydesmida: Xystodesmida)

description: Millipedes of the genus Apheloria occur in temperate broadleaf forests throughout eastern North America and west of the Mississippi River in the Ozark and Ouachita Mountains. Chemically defended with toxins made up of cyanide and benzaldehyde, the genus is part of a community of xystodesmid millipedes that compose several Mullerian mimicry rings in the Appalachian Mountains. We describe a model species of these mimicry rings, Apheloria polychroma n. sp., one of the most variable in coloration of all species of Diplopoda with more than six color morphs, each associated with a separate mimicry ring.

title: How seabirds plunge-dive without injuries

description: In nature, several seabirds (e.g., gannets and boobies) dive into water at up to 24 m/s as a hunting mechanism; furthermore, gannets and boobies have a slender neck, which is potentially the weakest part of the body under compression during high-speed impact. In this work, we investigate the stability of the bird’s neck during plunge-diving by understanding the interaction between the fluid forces acting on the head and the flexibility of the neck. First, we use a salvaged bird to identify plunge-diving phases. Anatomical features of the skull and neck were acquired to quantify the effect of beak geometry and neck musculature on the stability during a plunge-dive. Second, physical experiments using an elastic beam as a model for the neck attached to a skull-like cone revealed the limits for the stability of the neck during the bird’s dive as a function of impact velocity and geometric factors. We find that the neck length,
neck muscles, and diving speed of the bird predominantly reduce the likelihood of injury during the plunge-dive. Finally, we use our results to discuss maximum diving speeds for humans to avoid injury.

title: Primavera P6 Schedules

description: 142 different networks were created in Primavera P6 v16.1 to evaluate and classify the performance of Resource Constrained Scheduling (RCS) heuristics. The networks were created based on topological and resource parameters. 
The 142 generated networks were limited in size to between 30 and 90 activities. The complexity of the networks (NC) ranges from 1.40 to 1.65 with an average value of 1.50 (three immediate successors per activity). The 142 networks have single or multiple resource requirements with a maximum of three types of resources per project. All resource types are subjected to fixed resource availabilities. The networks have a Resource Factor of 0.25 and 0.75. The Resource Utilization (RU) ranges between 0.12-1.34. All networks have in common a Serial/parallel Indicator (I2) = 0.65 and a Resource Strength Factor (RS) = 0.25

title: Trace Element Bioaccumulation in Appalachian Coalfield Streams

description: These data represent concentrations of eight trace elements (aluminum, arsenic, cadmium, copper, nickel, strontium, vanadium, and zinc) in water, three forms of particulate media (biofilm, leaf detritus, and sediments processed in a manner that concentrates organic components), and three types of aquatic macroinvertebrates (primary consumers, secondary consumers, and crayfish of the family Cambaridae) in nine headwater streams of the Appalachian coalfield. Three streams were relatively undisturbed by human activity (“reference”) and six were influenced by Appalachian coal mining but were subject to little influence by human activity otherwise. Each of the nine streams was sampled twice: in Fall 2015 and Spring 2016.
Methods: The data were generated by K.M. Whitmore as described by Whitmore (2016), Whitmore et al. (2018), and Clark et al. (in review). Whitmore (2016) and Whitmore et al. (2018) describe methods for generating bioaccumulation data for selenium; these data were generated from those same samples as processed using those the same laboratory procedures.
Significance: These data were analyzed for environmental significance as described by Clark et al. (in review). Corresponding data describing bioaccumulation of selenium for those same samples as processed using those the same laboratory procedures are posted in Whitmore et al. (2018), Supplemental Data.

title: Structure and pigment make the eyed elater’s eyespots black

description: Surface structures that trap light leading to near complete structural absorption creates an appearance of “super black.” Well known in the natural world from bird feathers and butterfly scales, super black has evolved independently from various anatomical structures. Due to an exceptional ability to reduce specular reflection, these biological materials have garnered interest from optical industries. Here we describe the false eyes of the eyed elater click beetle, which attains near complete absorption of light by an array of vertically-aligned microtubules. These cone-shaped microtubules are modified hairs (setae) that are localized to eyespots on the dorsum of the beetle, and absorb 96.1% of incident light (at a 24.8° collection angle) in the spectrum between 300 – 700 nm. Filled with melanin, the setae combine structure and pigment to generate multiple reflections and refractions causing light to travel a greater distance. This light-capturing architecture leaves little light available to receivers and the false eyes appear as deep black making them appear more conspicuous to predators. A list of the files in the dataset, including a brief description of the types of files, can be found in 'readme.txt'.

title: Venus Resurfacing Constrained by Geoid and Topography

description: The primary explanations for the young crater age of the surface of Venus are progressive volcanic resurfacing and a period of mobile-lid tectonics.  The role of initial conditions, mantle potential temperature, and core potential temperature on Venus surface mobility are explored using 3D spherical mantle convection calculations with a lithospheric yield-stress that allows the fluid to adopt either a stagnant or mobile lid.   The small offset between the center of mass and center of figure (CM-CF) of Venus is reproduced in calculations that never undergo a period of mobile-lid convection. The CM-CF offset has never been used in the evaluation of geodynamic models for Venus. The mobile-lid calculations have a CM-CF offset that is four times the observed offset and, the offset increases significantly at the onset of a mobile lid/resurfacing event.  Furthermore, the rapid increase in core mantle boundary heatflow that occurs as the cold lithospheric material interacts with the core mantle boundary during a mobile-lid event is sufficient to power a core dynamo, even in the absence of inner core solidification.  The core mantle boundary heatflow decays over 1 Gyr after the cessation of mobile-lid tectonics.  The heatflow never reaches a level that would power a thermally-driven dynamo in calculations that do not undergo mobile-lid convection.  The calculations indicate that Venus young surface age is not the result of a mobile-lid resurfacing event while progressive resurfacing is consistent with the observations.
