title: Soil Chemistry and Quality Control Data in support of Environmental Monitoring at the Open Burning/Open Detonation (OB/OD) areas in the Ammunition Area (AA) at Letterkenny Army Depot, Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, 2021

description: Soil sampling was needed to provide analytical soil data for areas near the Open Burning/Open Detonation (OB/OD) areas in the Ammunition Area (AA) of Letterkenny Army Depot. The U.S. Geological Survey sampled 10 locations and prepared the samples for chemical analyses. Samples were collected from depths of zero to six inches with a stainless-steel trowel. Multiple subsamples (10-20) were homogenized at each location in a disposable plastic bowl, and the homogenized samples were used to fill two eight-ounce glass containers for each location. Seven soil sampling locations were in forested areas, two were in open-field areas, and one was at a forest-field interface. The results will be used to determine impacts of OB/OD activities on areas near the OB/OD area. This Data Release presents the analytical chemistry soil results (OBOD_soil_analytical.txt and OBOD_soil_MS.txt) for samples collected near the OB/OD area on April 21, 2021. Results for environmental samples and one replicate are provided in &amp;amp;quot;OBOD_soil_analytical.txt&amp;amp;quot;, and results for a matrix spike/matrix spike replicate are provided in &amp;amp;quot;OBOD_soil_MS.txt&amp;amp;quot;. Samples were analyzed for anions, metals, and selected explosive compounds. Metals that were detected at the highest concentrations were iron (range of 32,100 to 47,000 milligrams per kilogram (mg/kg)), aluminum (range of 22,200 to 26,800 mg/kg), and manganese (range of 1,040 to 2,460 mg/kg). Cadmium, chromium(VI), mercury, molybdenum, selenium, silver, and thallium were all detected at mean concentrations below one mg/kg. No chloride, sulfate, antimony, or tin were detected at any of the sampling locations. Explosive compounds analyzed as part of this study included perchlorate, 2-amino-4,6-dinitrotoluene, 4-amino-2,6-dinitrotoluene, 2,4-dinitrotoluene, 1,3,5-Trinitrobenzene, nitroglycerin, nitroguanidine, nitrocellulose, 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT), high melting explosive (HMX), royal demolition explosive (RDX), and tetryl. Results for explosive compounds were below the detection limit for all compounds analyzed. Matrix-spike data showed that percent recoveries for explosive compounds were within acceptable quality-control (QC) limits. For the 28 other constituents, twenty had acceptable recoveries within QC limits. The metals with the highest concentrations (iron, aluminum, manganese, barium, and zinc) had recoveries that were outside acceptable QC limits. Fluoride, antimony, and chromium(VI) had percent recoveries that were below acceptable QC limits. The analytical chemistry data reported for soil samples collected in April 2021 near the Open Burning/Open Detonation (OB/OD) areas in the Ammunition Area (AA) at Letterkenny Army Depot will be used to determine if there are any impacts to the nearby soil environment from current and past activities within the OB/OD areas.

title: Time series of seismic velocity changes during the 2018 collapse of K?lauea volcano derived from coda wave interferometry of repeating earthquakes

description: These processed data and provisional codes were created to investigate seismic velocity changes associated with the collapse of K?lauea caldera during its 2018 eruption. Primary data (i.e., seismic waveforms) are hosted at the Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS; https://www.iris.edu/) and are ingested by the codes included here to reproduce the data analyzed in Hotovec-Ellis et al., 'Earthquake-derived seismic velocity changes during the 2018 caldera collapse of K?lauea volcano.' The included code ('cwire' short for Coda Wave Interferometry with Repeating Earthquakes) takes a catalog of earthquakes clustered by waveform similarity (e.g., REDPy, https://github.com/ahotovec/REDPy/) and processes the coda for each pair of earthquakes within each cluster for changes in seismic velocity. Specifically, it finds the optimal time stretching factor to either expand or condense one earthquake's coda waveform to match the other, with that stretching factor equal to the relative change in seismic velocity (dv/v). It then takes those pairwise measurements and uses damped least-squares inversion to find the continuous time series that fits the pairwise measurements and writes them to the 'out' directory; results from runs described by the included configuration files are included in this directory for validation as part of this data release. The resulting time series can then be compared across the local seismic network and with other time series such as deformation. All data are stored in HDF5 database files (*.h5) created in the working directory. See README.txt for further documentation.

title: Statutory Insurance & Workers’ Welfare

description: This project asks if statutory accident insurance was the starting point for the exceptional expansion of the Swedish welfare state. Our study shows voluntary welfare protection was an integral part of the early-twentieth century welfare system and played a crucial role in protecting workers in the case of sickness and accident; and continued to do so well after the introduction of statutory accident insurance in 1916. Although under-insurance was the main motive for introducing statutory insurance, the government viewed over-insurance through voluntary insurance among workers as a disciplinary problem, due to the risk of moral hazard, both before and after the introduction of statutory accident insurance in 1916. Voluntary initiatives continued to expand throughout the period and were not crowded out by statutory accident insurance. However, statutory insurance did reduce wage increases and the self-insurance capabilities of better paid workers in high-risk industries.

title: Oncogenic Forkhead box D3 antisense RNA 1 promotes cell survival and confers temozolomide resistance in glioblastoma cells through the miR-128-3p/WEE1 G2 checkpoint kinase axis

description: Although temozolomide (TMZ) is recommended for glioblastoma (GBM) treatment, patients treated with TMZ usually develop TMZ resistance. Thus, there is an urgent need to elucidate the mechanism through which GBM cells acquire TMZ resistance. FOXD3-AS1, a recently discovered lncRNA, shows high expression in diverse cancer types. Nonetheless, its role in GBM remains unclear. This study found that FOXD3-AS1 was overexpressed in GBM cells and associated with dismal prognostic outcome in GBM patients. Functional studies revealed that depletion of FOXD3-AS1 inhibited cell growth and induced apoptosis of GBM cells. Results also showed that FOXD3-AS1 participates in the tolerance of GBM cells to TMZ. Specifically, TMZ-resistant cells exhibited higher FOXD3-AS1 expression compared to parental cells. Overexpression of FOXD3-AS1 increased TMZ tolerance in TMZ sensitive cells, whereas depletion of FOXD3-AS1 sensitized TMZ-resistant cells to TMZ treatment. Mechanistically, WEE1 was positively expressed with FOXD3-AS1. Given that both FOXD3-AS1 and WEE1 contain a binding site for miR-128-3p, FOXD3-AS1 could act as a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) to promote WEE1 expression by sponging miR-128-3p. Furthermore, we demonstrated that WEE1 was upregulated in TMZ-resistant GBM cells. Overexpression of WEE1 increased TMZ tolerance in TMZ sensitive cells, whereas deletion of FOXD3-AS1 promoted TMZ-resistant cells to be more sensitive to TMZ. Importantly, depletion of WEE1 could reverse TMZ resistant phenotype in FOXD3-AS1-overexpressed GBM cells. Collectively, our findings reveal a critical role of FOXD3-AS1 in the survival of GBM cells and TMZ resistance, which suggests that FOXD3-AS1 is a potential biomarker for the diagnosis and treatment of GBM.

title: Data and Code for: Gotta Have Money to Make Money? Bargaining Behavior and Financial Need of Microentrepreneurs

description: Bargaining over real prices with microenterprise owners in Ghana, we show that sellers with less per capita household liquidity agree to lower sale prices. This relationship is robust across firms and within firms over time, even after controlling for a plethora of time-varying observables. A computerized bargaining experiment, with randomized initial payout sizes, corroborates the real-bargaining findings. This pattern can be explained by an application of classical bargaining theory that includes endowments and utility functions with decreasing absolute risk aversion. The potential poverty multiplying implications of pricing behavior is a key frontier in understanding barriers to the profitability of microenterprises.

title: Data and code for: Risk Exposure and Acquisition of Macroeconomic Information

description: We conduct an experiment with a representative sample from the US to study households’ demand for macroeconomic information. Respondents who learn of a higher personal exposure to unemployment risk during recessions increase their demand for an expert forecast about the likelihood of a recession. This finding is consistent with macroeconomic models of endogenous information acquisition, according to which the demand for information depends on its expected benefits. Moreover, respondents’ updating about their personal unemployment risk suggests that households are imperfectly informed about their exposure to aggregate fluctuations, which may distort their beliefs about the benefits of acquiring macroeconomic information.<br><br>

title: Data and Code for: Can Technology Solve the Principal-Agent Problem? Evidence from China’s War on Air Pollution

description: We examine the introduction of automatic air pollution monitoring to counter suspected tampering at the local level, a central feature of China’s “war on pollution.” Exploiting 654 regression discontinuity designs based on city-level variation in the day that monitoring was automated, we find an immediate and lasting increase of 35% in reported PM10 concentrations post–automation. Moreover, automation’s introduction increased online searches for face masks and air filters that are strong predictors of purchases. Overall, our findings suggest that the biased and imperfect information prior to automation led to suboptimal investments in defensive measures, plausibly imposing meaningful welfare costs.<br><br>

title: Data and Code for "Immigration and Entrepreneurship in the US"

description: Immigrants can expand labor supply and compete for jobs with native-born workers. But immigrants may also start new firms, expanding labor demand. This paper uses U.S. administrative data and other data sources to study the role of immigrants in entrepreneurship. We ask how often immigrants start companies, how many jobs these firms create, and how firms founded by native-born individuals compare. A simple model provides a measurement framework for addressing the dual roles of immigrants as founders and workers. The findings suggest that immigrants act more as "job creators'' than "job takers'' and play outsized roles in U.S. high-growth entrepreneurship.

title: Data and Code for: Motivated Beliefs and Anticipation of Uncertainty Resolution

description: Manipulating subjects' expectations about the resolution of uncertainty, I show that subjects update beliefs about ego-relevant information optimistically when they expect no resolution of uncertainty but neutrally when they expect immediate uncertainty resolution. This finding highlights an important channel of the supply side of motivated beliefs and informs the discussion about the puzzling evidence on belief updating about ego-relevant information. Moreover, I document that subjects ex post rationalize information by manipulating their stated beliefs about the ego-relevance of the underlying event depending on the valence of information. This result suggests an additional channel that subjects use to protect their ego utility.<br><br><br>
