- Description:
- We evaluated PM levels at the Agbogbloshie e-waste and scrap yard site in Accra, Ghana, and at upwind and downwind locations. This monitoring forms part of the West Africa-Michigan Charter II for GEOHealth cohort study, which is analyzing occupational exposures and health risks at this site.

- Description:
- Conducting quantitative metrics-based performance analysis of first-principles-based global magnetosphere models is an essential step in understanding their capabilities and limitations, and providing scope for improvements in order to enhance their space weather prediction capabilities for a range of solar conditions. In this study, a detailed comparison of the performance of three global magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) models in predicting the Earth’s magnetopause location and ionospheric cross polar cap potential (CPCP) has been presented. Using the Community Coordinated Modeling Center’s Run-on-Request system and extensive database on results from various magnetospheric scenarios simulated for a variety of solar wind conditions, the aforementioned model predictions have been compared for magnetopause standoff distance estimations obtained from six empirical models, and with cross polar cap potential estimations obtained from the Assimmilative Mapping of Ionospheric Electrodynamics (AMIE) Model and the Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) observations. We have considered a range of events spanning different space weather activity to analyze the performance of these models. Using a fit performance metric analysis for each event, we have quantified the models’ reproducibility of magnetopause standoff distances and CPCP against empirically-predicted observations, and identified salient features that govern the performance characteristics of the modeled magnetospheric and ionospheric quantities.

- Description:
- This data is from a project concerned with dehydrating samples of saturated superabsorbent polymer using a centrifuge. The goal was to consider centrifugation as an energy efficient scheme to dehydrate SAP with the notion of reusing it. The data provided contains mass fractions of solvent removed through centrifugation with varied parameters.

- Description:
- This dataset includes spectrally-resolved optical properties for volcanic ash particles from the 2010 Eyjafjallajökull volcanic eruptions. These properties were used in the climate simulations described by Flanner et al. (2014, doi:10.1002/2014JD021977) to quantify ash radiative forcing from the eruptions.

- Description:
- The data contain the daily-averaged atmospheric concentrations of CO2 tracers in the Northern Hemisphere simulated from a tagged tracer transport model GEOS-Chem v12.0.0. Thirteen land flux regions are defined and tagged in the model to separate their imprints on the long-term atmospheric CO2 seasonal amplification in Northern Hemisphere. A file describing the delineation of these land flux regions is also provided. See the README file for more details on the dataset and model configurations.

- Description:
- This data is a subset of the data used to generate figures similar to figures 1, 2, 3, and 4 in Nason et al., 2020, Nature Biomedical Engineering. The purpose of the study was to demonstrate the benefits of using spiking band power, a low-power but single unit specific recording signal, for brain-machine interfaces with nonhuman primates with the potential to impact low-power brain-machine interfaces with humans. All of the data is contained in .mat files, which can be commonly opened by Matlab and the Python scipy library.

- Description:
- This data is a subset of the data used to generate components of all figures in the manuscript and supplement in Nason et al., 2021, Neuron. The purpose of the study was to demonstrate the first-ever simultaneous brain-control of two independent groups of fingers in one hand with some analysis of cortical tuning to finger movements in nonhuman primates. This advises future brain-machine interfaces for the control of finger movements with humans. All of the data is contained in .mat files, which can be commonly opened by Matlab and the Python scipy library. The Matlab packages (and versions) used for the manuscript are: MATLAB (9.4), Signal Processing Toolbox (8.0), Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox (11.3), and Curve Fitting Toolbox (3.5.7).

- Description:
- The focus of this research effort is to systematically study the capability of aging diagnostics using cell expansion under variety of aging conditions and states. The data collection campaign is very important to cover various degradation modes to extract the degradation features that will be used to inform, parameterize, and validate the models developed earlier. In the data collection campaign, we are documenting the evolution of the electrical and mechanical characteristics and especially the reversible mechanical measurement. It is important to note that we collect data using newly developed fixtures that enables the simultaneous measurement of mechanical and electrical response under pseudo-constant pressure.
