As part of the Flaring & Fossil Fuels: Uncovering Emissions & Losses (F3UEL) project, in 2022 the aircraft measurement platform sampled offshore oil & gas facilities in the US Gulf of Mexico to quantify facility-level emissions using the approach detailed in Conley et al. (2017). Vertical profiles were conducted on each flight to capture the vertical structure and mixing depths of the atmosphere. The data file contains all merged flight data from each flight day.

Reconstructed CT slices for tooth in bone fragment of Colognathus obscurus (University of Michigan Museum of Paleontology catalog number UMMP 7506) as a series of TIFF images. Raw projections are not included in this dataset. The reconstructed slice data from the scan are offered here as a series of unsigned 16-bit integer TIFF images. The upper left corner of the first image (*_0000.tif) is the XYZ origin.
This is part of the simulation set of geomagnetic storms from 2010 to 2019. The Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF) with the configuration of SWPC v2 was used. The output files can be read by the visualization scripts included in the SWMF or the SpacePy Python package.
Amyloid nanofibers are abundant in microorganisms and are integral components of many biofilms, serving various purposes, from virulent to structural. Nonetheless, the precise characterization of bacterial amyloid nanofibers has been elusive, with incomplete and contradicting results. The present work focuses on the molecular details and characteristics of PSMa1-derived functional amyloids present in Staphylococcus aureus biofilms, using a combination of computational and experimental techniques, to develop a model that can aid the design of compounds to control amyloid formation. Results from molecular dynamics simulations, guided and supported by spectroscopy and microscopy, show that PSMa1 amyloid nanofibers present a helical structure formed by two protofilaments, have an average diameter of about 12 nm, and adopt a left-handed helicity with a periodicity of approximately 72 nm. The chirality of the self-assembled nanofibers, an intrinsic geometric property of its constituent peptides, is central to determining the fibers' lateral growth.

This is the model and observational data referenced in our manuscript entitled “surface and sub-subsurface internal gravity wave kinetic energy spectra from global ocean models and observations.” The model data for the 7 regions from the two global simulations (HYCOM and MITgcm) can be found here.
Generation of C2+ compounds using sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water provides a promising path for carbon neutrality. The exploration of a catalyst to break the bottleneck of C-C coupling, for constructing a rational artificial photosynthesis integrated device, is at the core. Herein, based on operando spectroscopy measurements, theoretical calculations, and feedstock experiments, it is discovered that gold, in conjunction with iridium, can catalyze the reduction of CO2, achieving C-C coupling by insertion of CO2 into -CH3. Owing to a combination of optoelectronic and catalytic properties, the assembly of AuIr with InGaN nanowires on silicon (AuIr@InGaN NWs/Si) enables the achievement of a C2H6 activity of 58.8 mmol‧g-1‧h-1 with a turnover number of 54,595 over 60 hours. A light-to-fuels efficiency of ~0.59% for solar fuels production from CO2 and H2O is achieved without any other energy inputs. This work provides a carbon-negative path for producing higher order C compounds.

Inland lakes play a critical role in ecosystem stability, and robust validation of lake models is essential for understanding their dynamics. While remote sensing data can assist with lake surface temperature validation, in situ data typically provides more accurate, reliable data not limited to only the lake surface. However, in situ temperature data for many individual lakes, particularly in North America, is difficult for researchers to quickly access in a standardized format. This database offers a well-organized collection of in situ near-surface and subsurface temperatures from 134 sites divided among 29 large North American inland lakes collected from a variety of sources. The database includes multiple subsurface temperatures throughout the depth profile of 84 of these sites, providing comprehensive data for lake model evaluation. All lakes selected for this database are large enough (over approximately 30 km^2 to be represented by large-scale operational weather models, supporting robust lake model validation efforts on the lakes that have the greatest impact on climatology.
This dataset contains the results of a survey of mouse handling methods by personnel working with laboratory mice. The survey included questions about preferred handling methods, barriers to use of refined handling methods, and a knowledge quiz about refined mouse handling. Data was collected via Qualtrics survey as described in the methodology section. This dataset is associated with the following publication, accepted by PLOS One:

The data were used to create number density functions of supermassive black holes (SMBH) for redshifts 0.5 < z < 3.0. The goal of this research is to discern whether galaxy-black hole scaling relations produce black hole masses that are consistent with each other at high redshift. These number density functions were used to compare the high-mass SMBH distributions from each relation. In massive black hole binary based models, the highest-mass SMBHs have a significant influence on the gravitational wave background characteristic strain amplitude. To inform our understanding of the gravitational wave background, that pulsar timing arrays now show evidence for, we need to therefore have a solid foundation on the underlying SMBH population. In our paper we found that using different galaxy properties to inform our estimations of SMBH mass resulted in different distributions, especially at the high-mass end.
