Repository of HydroSMADE: Hydropower Site-level Monthly Availability Data Ensemble for 1950-2100 at Existing and Potential Global Sites

This repository presents HydroSMADE—Hydropower Site-level Monthly Availability Data Ensemble, a new open dataset that provides monthly hydropower availability for 1,593 existing and 124,333 potential sites worldwide over the period 1950–2100. The dataset is generated by using a global hydrologic model (Xanthos) with explicit representation of hydropower operation. Specifically, HydroSMADE distinguishes between storage and diversion sites, applies optimized operating rules, and incorporates site-specific characteristics such as generation capacity, maximum turbine flow, and reservoir storage. Driven by bias-corrected meteorological inputs, the data is provided for 30 alternative future scenarios. The scenarios consist of the full factorial combination of three standard CMIP6 atmospheric forcing pathways (SSP1-2.6, SSP3-7.0, and SSP5-8.5) and ten CMIP6 General Circulation Models (GCMs): GFDL-ESM4, IPSL-CM6A-LR, MPI-ESM1-2-HR, MRI-ESM2-0, EC-Earth3, CanESM5, MIROC6, CNRM-ESM2-1, UKESM1-0-LL, and CNRM-CM6-1. The repository contains a total of 122 files: a text file (readme.txt) containing a brief description of the included data, a CSV file containing site attributes, and the remaining 120 files (in CSV) containing site-level monthly hydropower availability. Example Jupyter Notebooks to explore the HydroSMADE dataset are available on GitHub at https://github.com/kamal0013/HydroSMADE More details on the methods and technical validation of HydroSMADE are available in the following paper by the same authors: Chowdhury, A. K., Abeshu, G. W., Zhao, M., Wild, T. B., Hassan, N., Ying, Z., Kim, G. J., Matthew, B., Jonathan, L., & Li, H.-Y. (Submitted).

Sputter-Deposited Mo Thin Films: Multimodal Characterization of Structure, Surface Morphology, Density, Residual Stress, Electrical Resistivity, and Mechanical Response

Multimodal datasets of materials are rich sources of information which can be leveraged for expedited discovery of process–structure–property relationships and for designing materials with targeted structures and/or properties. For this data descriptor article, we provide a multimodal dataset of magnetron sputter-deposited molybdenum (Mo) thin films, which are used in a variety of industries including high temperature coatings, photovoltaics, and microelectronics. In this dataset we explored a process space consisting of 27 unique combinations of sputter power and Ar deposition pressure. Here, the phase, structure, surface morphology, and composition of the Mo thin films were characterized by x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and Rutherford backscattering spectrometry. Physical properties—namely, thickness, film stress and sheet resistance—were also measured to provide additional film characteristics and behaviors. Additionally, nanoindentation was utilized to obtain mechanical load-displacement data. The entire dataset consists of 2072 measurements including scalar values (e.g., film stress values), 2D linescans (e.g., x-ray diffractograms), and 3D imagery (e.g., atomic force microscopy images). An additional 1889 quantities, including film hardness, modulus, electrical resistivity, density, and surface roughness, were derived from the experimental datasets using traditional methods. Minimal analysis and discussion of the results are provided in this data descriptor article to limit the authors’ preconceived interpretations of the data. Overall, the data modalities are consistent with previous reports of refractory metal thin films, ensuring that a high-quality dataset was generated. The entirety of this data is committed to a public repository in the Materials Data Facility.

Repository scale classification and decomposition of tandem mass spectral data

Various studies have shown associations between molecular features and phenotypes of biological samples. These studies, however, focus on a single phenotype per study and are not applicable to repository scale metabolomics data. Here we report MetSummarizer, a method for predicting (i) the biological phenotypes of environmental and host-oriented samples, and (ii) the raw ingredient composition of complex mixtures. We show that the aggregation of various metabolomic datasets can improve the accuracy of predictions. Since these datasets have been collected using different standards at various laboratories, in order to get unbiased results it is crucial to detect and discard standard-specific features during the classification step. We further report high accuracy in prediction of the raw ingredient composition of complex foods from the Global Foodomics Project.

Validation Data for Benchmarking Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing Process Simulations

Residual stresses cause geometric distortion and affect mechanical performance of additively manufactured structures, yet they are notoriously difficult to assess and predict. Distortion (warpage) can drive parts outside dimensional tolerance limits, leading to part rejection or rework. For parts that meet tolerance, locked-in residual stress fields can affect structural integrity during operation, particularly subcritical cracking by fatigue, creep, or corrosion. This work develops benchmark data for a common additive manufacturing process (Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing) that can be applied for calibration and validation of physical process models that predict residual stress fields. The work includes design of two different samples of differing geometry, detailed manufacturing records for a set of physical samples, and an extensive set of residual stress measurement data developed using two diverse techniques (the contour method and neutron diffraction). An initial application of the work is also reported, where a modeling challenge was issued to secure residual stress model predictions from two independent laboratories that were blind to residual stress measurement data. These initial blind residual stress predictions show significant discrepancies relative to the measurement data, illustrating the potential value of the underlying validation data. An open repository for this work, including the sample designs, manufacturing process records, and the residual stress data, is also provided for future application in non-blind validation efforts.

A Scalable Space-Time Domain Decomposition Approach for Solving Large Scale Nonlinear Regularized Inverse Ill Posed Problems in 4D Variational Data Assimilation

We address the development of innovative algorithms designed to solve the strong-constraint Four Dimensional Variational Data Assimilation (4DVar DA) problems in large scale applications. We present a space-time decomposition approach which employs the whole domain decomposition, i.e. both along the spacial and temporal direction in the overlapping case, and the partitioning of both the solution and the operator. Starting from the global functional defined on the entire domain, we get to a sort of regularized local functionals on the set of sub domains providing the order reduction of both the predictive and the Data Assimilation models. The algorithm convergence is developed. Performance in terms of reduction of time complexity and algorithmic scalability is discussed on the Shallow Water Equations on the sphere. The number of state variables in the model, the number of observations in an assimilation cycle, as well as numerical parameters as the discretization step in time and in space domain are defined on the basis of discretization grid used by data available at repository Ocean Synthesis/Reanalysis Directory of Hamburg University.
