United States Utility-Scale PV Supply Curves 2023

This data packet contains supply curves, hourly generation profiles, and a composite siting exclusion TIFF for utility-scale PV across the contiguous United States. The supply curves offer comprehensive metrics such as capacity (MW), generation (MWh), levelized cost of energy (LCOE), levelized cost of transmission (LCOT), and more for each reV site (~60,000 sites). Hourly generation profiles are available for each reV site and can be matched to the available capacity in the supply curve (refer to the Jupyter Notebook). The composite exclusion TIFF is a single file that delineates areas where PV installations are permissible based on various siting assumptions. This data packet contains information for the Reference and Limited siting scenarios.

Making it without losing it: Type A, achievement motivation, and scientific attainment revisited

In a study by Matthews et al. (1980), responses by academic psychologists to the Jenkins Activity Survey for Health Prediction, a measure of the Type A construct, were found to be significantly, positively correlated with two measures of attainment, citations by others to published work and number of publications. In the present study, JAS responses from the Matthews et al. sample were subjected to a factor analysis with oblique rotation and two new subscales were developed on the basis of this analysis. The first, Achievement Strivings (AS) was found to be significantly correlated with both the publication and citation measures. The second scale, Impatience and Irritability (I/I), was uncorrelated with the achievement criteria. Data from other samples indicate that I/I is related to a number of health symptoms. The results suggest that the current formulation of the Type A construct may contain two components, one associated with positive achievement and the other with poor health.

Development of a Knowledge Graph for Dataset Discovery and Identification at a NASA Data Center

The NASA Goddard Earth Sciences Data and Information Services Center (GES DISC) archives and distributes hundreds of Earth Science data collections to the public. These collections are used in research, resulting in the publication of thousands of scientific papers each year. As new users come to GES DISC for data, it is important for them to understand how prior research used the data. To help researchers, a knowledge graph (KG) was designed and implemented to connect publication citations with dataset metadata. The relationships created in the graph have the potential to allow the Web applications that utilize this information to directly connect the publication to the GES DISC datasets and services. These relationships are demonstrated using a web application prototype. In addition, the graph can also make connections between publications, datasets, and measurements based on the mentions of datasets and their attributes in the publications. To demonstrate this capability, a web application was created that takes the excerpt from the publication and returns a most likely dataset and measurement pairing, ranking the results based on how often these datasets and measurements were used in prior publications.

Enhancing Dataset Discovery and Usage Tracking in Earth Sciences: Integrating Knowledge Graphs and Large Language Models

NASA's Data Active Archive Centers (DAACs) have played a crucial role in supporting a wide range of applied research in Earth and Environmental sciences. To date, over 20,000 publications have been collected, citing more than 3,000 NASA Earth science datasets. We present an innovative approach that links datasets and collected publications through a knowledge graph (KG). This KG enables the tracking of dataset citations throughout the dataset's lifecycle, revealing patterns of dataset usage across various applied research areas. We fine-tuned the pre-trained NASA IMPACT INDUS-Base Retriever Large Language Model (LLM) using a set of labeled publication abstracts. Our results indicate that 87% of the publications were classified into one of twenty applied research areas, while the remaining 13% were categorized into non-applied research areas. The classified publications linked to datasets are used to discover datasets by users interested in specific applied research and by dataset providers to determine dataset usage for applications.

Remote sensing of multilevel clouds during FIRE IFO 2

An unresolved difficulty in the remote sensing of clouds concerns the inability of the cloud retrieval algorithms to adequately recognize and analyze scenes containing overlapping cloud layers. Most cloud retrieval schemes, such as that used by the International Satellite Cloud Climatology Project (ISCCP) assume that each picture element (pixel) contains a single cloud layer. The current study begins to address the complexities of multilayered cloud property retrieval through the application of a modified multispectral, multiresolution (MSMR) method, first detailed in Baum et al. (1992), which merges 1.1 -km (at nadir) spectral data from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) with 17.4-km (at nadir) High Resolution Infrared Radiometer Sounder (HIRS/2, henceforth HIRS). Both instruments are flown aboard the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) polar-orbiting platforms. An ideal case study for this investigation is provided by the NOAA-11 overpass at 20:48 UTC on November 28, 1991. At this time, a large-scale cirrostratus veil overlaid a low-level stratus deck over much of the IFO region. There were both surface lidar and radar observations of the clouds as well as University of North Dakota (UND) Citation aircraft measurements. The presence of overlapping cloud layers within a HIRS FOV is determined from colocated AVHRR spectral data through the use of a fuzzy logic expert system. Conventional algorithms such as spatial coherence and CO2 slicing are used to retrieve cloud pressure and height for each identified cloud layer. The results from the satellite cloud retrieval analysis are compared to results from both surface- and aircraft-based measurements.

Productivity goals drive office automation

Office automation (OA) steps being taken by NASA to improve efficiency in communications between centers and personnel are outlined. NASA centers are currently linked by satellite for electronic mail and scheduling through dumb and intelligent terminals. The implementation of teleconferencing with interactive graphics transmitted between dial-up terminals is being examined in a pilot program, and interactive data bases are already in operation, with an on-line summary data base being planned for NASA headquarters. The NASA Recon on-line service is operating with citations of over 2,200,000 aeronautics and astronautics research documents and 300,000 scientific books accessed by over 250 terminals around the U.S. The emphasis for all the OA systems is on user-friendly design and minimizing the required input for entry and access.

A jet in a crossflow

In the transition from hover to wingborn flight, V/STOL aircraft rely on the direct thrust of lift jets to supplement wing generated lift. The lifting jets interact with the flow over the aerodynamic surface to produce a complex flow around the aircraft. The simplest configuration which retains the essential characteristics of the jet/aerodynamic-surface interaction problem is a subsonic round jet exhausting perpendicularly through a large flat plate into a uniform crossflow. This configuration was studied extensively, both by experiment and by analysis. As a result, a fairly complete experiment data base exists for comparison with the numerical calculations. Research publications and presentations in this area are included. Each citation is followed by an abstract of the work.
