Tsdat: An Open-Source Data Standardization Framework for Marine Energy and Beyond: Preprint

Many organizations are tasked with the collection and processing of large quantities of data from various measurement devices. Data reported from these sources are often not interoperable with datasets and software used by analysts and other organizations in the same field, introducing barriers for collaboration on large-scale projects. This poses a particular problem for cross-device comparisons and machine learning applications. To address these challenges, the open source Time-Series Data Pipelines (Tsdat) software was developed by a joint collaboration between Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, and Sandia National Laboratories to facilitate collaboration and accelerate advancements in the Marine Energy domain through the development of an open-source ecosystem of tools. This paper will describe the Tsdat software and the data standards within which the framework operates. A beta version of the framework has been released and is currently being used by several projects in marine energy, wind energy, and building energy systems.

Including 238 U(n,f)/ 235 U(n,f) and 239 Pu(n,f)/ 235 U(n,f) NIFFTE fission TPC Cross-sections into the Neutron Data Standards Database

The primary purpose of this report is to document how the 238 U/ 235 U and 239 Pu/ 235 U neutron induced fission cross-section ratios, 238 U(n,f)/ 235 U(n,f) and 239 Pu(n,f)/ 235 U(n,f), respectively, measured by the NIFFTE fission Time Projection Chamber (fissionTPC) were included in the most recent database (termed GMA) underlying Neutron Data Standards (NDS) evaluations. This report shows and discusses NDS input files, and underlying assumptions regarding the uncertainty estimate and necessary for including these data. This uncertainty estimate and the resulting files were based on information provided by fissionTPC experimentalists, R.J.Casperson, N.S. Bowden, L. Snyder and K.T. Schmitt for the 238 U ratio, and by L. Snyder for the 239 Pu ratio. The fissionTPC data were included twice, by D. Neudecker and V. Pronyaev, to counter-check results and exclude possible mistakes in their inclusion. It is shown in both evaluations that including fissionTPC 239 Pu(n,f)/ 235 U(n,f) data points to a lower evaluated 239 Pu(n,f) cross section above 10 MeV than the currently released NDS data. This raises the question whether a part of a previous dataset by Tovesson et al., that was previously rejected above 13 MeV for having low values, should be included in the NDS evaluation after all. The evaluated 238 U(n,f) cross section only changes significantly close to the threshold. The impact on the 235 U(n,f) cross section is minimal. fissionTPC data reduce evaluated uncertainties on both observables by 0–12% of the GMA evaluated uncertainties. However, the currently released NDS data contain in addition to these GMA evaluated uncertainties “Unrecognized Sources of Uncertainties” (USU) of 1.2%. It needs to be further discussed within the NDS project, whether the new fissionTPC data should also reduce USU.

Validation of standardized data formats and tools for ground-level particle-based gamma-ray observatories

Context. Ground-based γ-ray astronomy is still a rather young field of research, with strong historical connections to particle physics. This is why most observations are conducted by experiments with proprietary data and analysis software, as is usual in the particle physics field. However, in recent years, this paradigm has been slowly shifting toward the development and use of open-source data formats and tools, driven by upcoming observatories such as the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). In this context, a community-driven, shared data format (the gamma-astro-data-format, or GADF) and analysis tools such as Gammapy and ctools have been developed. So far, these efforts have been led by the Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope community, leaving out other types of ground-based γ-ray instruments. Aims. We aim to show that the data from ground particle arrays, such as the High-Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) observatory, are also compatible with the GADF and can thus be fully analyzed using the related tools, in this case, Gammapy. Methods. We reproduced several published HAWC results using Gammapy and data products compliant with GADF standard. We also illustrate the capabilities of the shared format and tools by producing a joint fit of the Crab spectrum including data from six different γ-ray experiments. Results. We find excellent agreement with the reference results, a powerful confirmation of both the published results and the tools involved. Conclusions. The data from particle detector arrays such as the HAWC observatory can be adapted to the GADF and thus analyzed with Gammapy. A common data format and shared analysis tools allow multi-instrument joint analysis and effective data sharing. To emphasize this, a sample of Crab nebula event lists is made public with this paper. Because of the complementary nature of pointing and wide-field instruments, this synergy will be distinctly beneficial for the joint scientific exploitation of future observatories such as the Southern Wide-field Gamma-ray Observatory and CTA.

Standardized Data to Improve Understanding and Modeling of Soil Nitrogen at Continental Scale

Abstract Nitrogen (N) is a key limiting nutrient in terrestrial ecosystems, but there remain critical gaps in our ability to predict and model controls on soil N cycling. This may be in part due to lack of standardized sampling across broad spatial–temporal scales. Here, we introduce a continentally distributed, publicly available data set collected by the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) that can help fill these gaps. First, we detail the sampling design and methods used to collect and analyze soil inorganic N pool and net flux rate data from 47 terrestrial sites. We address methodological challenges in generating a standardized data set, even for a network using uniform protocols. Then, we evaluate sources of variation within the sampling design and compare measured net N mineralization to simulated fluxes from the Community Earth System Model 2 (CESM2). We observed wide spatiotemporal variation in inorganic N pool sizes and net transformation rates. Site explained the most variation in NEON’s stratified sampling design, followed by plots within sites. Organic horizons had larger pools and net N transformation rates than mineral horizons on a sample weight basis. The majority of sites showed some degree of seasonality in N dynamics, but overall these temporal patterns were not matched by CESM2, leading to poor correspondence between observed and modeled data. Looking forward, these data can reveal new insights into controls on soil N cycling, especially in the context of other environmental data sets provided by NEON, and should be leveraged to improve predictive modeling of the soil N cycle.
