- Description:
- The data contained within the archive are for analysis and replication of Figure 2 in Livi et al. (2023), First Results from the Solar Orbiter Heavy Ion Sensor, Astronomy & Astrophysics. The readme.txt file contains more details on the contents of the archive and its files. Livi et al. (2023) reports the first solar wind composition measurements collected from the Heavy Ion Sensor (HIS) on the Solar Orbiter spacecraft. The period of study spans January-June 2022 during with the spacecraft completed nearly a full orbit about the Sun, from 0.3 AU to 1.0 AU. The solar wind composition within this publication are the first within the inner heliosphere. This paper describes the data and its processing from raw measurements (e.g., the data contained within this archive) to derived composition data products, and examines these composition data products about an interplanetary shock and interplanetary coronal mass ejection. Finally, these composition data are examined statistically and compared to historical data sets.

- Description:
- Accurate prediction of physical alterations in carbonate reservoirs under dissolution is critical for development of subsurface energy technologies. The impact of mineral dissolution on flow characteristics depends on the connectivity and tortuosity of the pore network. Persistent homology is a tool from algebraic topology that describes the size and connectivity of topological features. When applied to 3D X-ray computed tomography (XCT) imagery of rock cores, it provides a novel metric of pore network heterogeneity. Prior works have demonstrated the efficacy of persistent homology in predicting flow properties in numerical simulations of flow through porous media. Its ability to combine size, spatial distribution, and connectivity information make it a promising tool for understanding reactive transport in complex pore networks, yet limited work has been done to apply persistence analysis to experimental studies on natural rocks. In this study, three limestone cores were imaged by XCT before and after acid-driven dissolution flow through experiments. Each XCT scan was analyzed using persistent homology. In all three rocks, permeability increase was driven by the growth of large, connected pore bodies. The two most homogenous samples saw an increased effect nearer to the flow inlet, suggesting emerging preferential flow paths as the reaction front progresses. The most heterogeneous sample showed an increase in along-core homogeneity during reaction. Variability of persistence showed moderate positive correlation with pore body size increase. Persistence heterogeneity analysis could be used to anticipate where greatest pore size evolution may occur in a reservoir targeted for subsurface development, improving confidence in project viability.

- Description:
- Solar-induced chlorophyll fluorescence (SIF) is an emission of photons during photosynthesis that can be used to make inferences about gross primary productivity (GPP) and carbon uptake of vegetation. With a recent proliferation of available satellite-based observations of SIF, there is much interest in assessing how SIF relates to GPP across multiple temporal and spatial scales. Tower-based observations of SIF at high temporal resolution provide a key link between satellite data and local surface-based observations of ecosystem productivity. We collected tower-based observations of SIF and several vegetation indices using a PhotoSpec spectrometer system deployed on the AmeriFlux tower at UMBS (US-UMB). As the data were collected alongside concurrent eddy flux observations of carbon exchange, they provide a unique opportunity to explore how SIF and other vegetation signals relate to GPP in a temperate deciduous forest and better inform the interpretation of satellite observations.

Projekti Arkeologjik i Shkodrës (PASH)

- Description:
- The data presented here were collected in the course of archaeological survey and excavation in the region of Shkodër in northern Albania, carried out between 2010 and 2014, with a follow-up visit in 2016. The Projekti Arkeologjik i Shkodrës (PASH) was co-directed by Michael L. Galaty (University of Michigan) and Lorenc Bejko (University of Tirana) and was sponsored by the United States National Science Foundation (NSF BCS1220016), The University of Tirana, Millsaps College, Mississippi State University, and the University of Michigan. The data presented here accompany a two-volume research report, published by the University of Michigan Museum of Anthropological Archaeology Press (Galaty and Bejko 2023) - Volume 1 ( https://doi.org/10.3998/mpub.12201317) and Volume 2 ( https://doi.org/10.3998/mpub.12208577)., The county (Alb. qarqe) of Shkodër is located in northern Albania. It is bordered to the south by the Adriatic Sea and to the northwest by the country of Montenegro. The counties of Lezhë and Kukës are situated to the south and east, respectively. Shkodër Lake is situated along the border with Montenegro. It is the largest freshwater lake in the Balkans. The city of Shkodër is the fifth largest in Albania. It was founded in the Bronze Age and became a Roman colony in 168 BC, following the Illyrian Wars. Several major rivers intersect at Shkodër, including the Buna, which exits Shkodër Lake, the Drin, and the Kir. The latter two rivers flow from the Bjeshkët e Nemuna, the Albanian Alps, and provide access across the mountains, to the Balkan interior, including metal-rich Kosovo. Several very important ancient sites are located to the south of Shkodër, close to the Adriatic coast: Lezhë (ancient Lissus), Apollonia, and Durrës (ancient Epidamnus, Dyrrachium under the Romans). The latter two cities were Greek colonies, founded during the Archaic period. All three became Roman colonies., and PASH was designed to investigate shifts, through time, in Shkodër towards increased social stratification and hierarchy. These shifts commenced during prehistory and are marked by two dramatic changes in the regional landscape: new settlement in defensible “hillforts” and burial in rock and earth mounds. We wondered what factors – environment, settlement, status, conflict, subsistence, trade, migration – might have allowed or encouraged these changes.

- Description:
- The University of Michigan’s Head and Neck Specialized Program of Research Excellence (SPORE) included an epidemiology project that approached every previously untreated adult head and neck squamous carcinoma (HNSCC) patient evaluated in the multidisciplinary Head and Neck Oncology Program of the University of Michigan (UM; Ann Arbor, MI) Comprehensive Cancer Center for participation in our longitudinal epidemiology study. This analytic dataset includes the most commonly requested covariates and outcome variables for survival analysis of this cohort of HNSCC patients. Data cleaning and creation of this analysis dataset was performed with SAS software v 9.3 (Carey,NC) by a biostatistician supporting multiple projects in the University of Michigan’s Head and Neck Specialized Program of Research Excellence (SPORE) and is available in RedCap for UM investigators to join with discipline specific data collected on the same cohort through a de-identified ID link.

- Description:
- 1.5 years of Polar UVI data was used to construct the Feature Tracking empirical model of Auroral Precipitation (FTA). A cumulative energy grid was tracked with the energy flux and the latitude position in each MLT bin for individual images. The auroral characteristics show linear relationships with the AE index depending on the MLT region. Thus, the FTA model was constructed to describe the global energy flux and the averaged energy as a function of the AE index based on the LBHl and LBHs emissions. Compared with two other empirical models, FTA predicted more consistent aurora with the observations on 17 March 2013 at higher activity levels.
