Analysis of a Radiation Model of the Shuttle Space Suit

The extravehicular activity (EVA) required to assemble the International Space Station (ISS) will take approximately 1500 hours with 400 hours of EVA per year in operations and maintenance. With the Space Station at an inclination of 51.6 deg the radiation environment is highly variable with solar activity being of great concern. Thus, it is important to study the dose gradients about the body during an EVA to help determine the cancer risk associated with the different environments the ISS will encounter. In this paper we are concerned only with the trapped radiation (electrons and protons). Two different scenarios are looked at: the first is the quiet geomagnetic periods in low Earth orbit (LEO) and the second is during a large solar particle event in the deep space environment. This study includes a description of how the space suit's computer aided design (CAD) model was developed along with a description of the human model. Also included is a brief description of the transport codes used to determine the total integrated dose at several locations within the body. Finally, the results of the transport codes when applied to the space suit and human model and a brief description of the results are presented.

NCSU HTDMA data

NCSU HTDMA data Data Level b1: QC checks applied to measurements Data Format: CSV Description: See "instrument description Site: Houston, TX; Tracking Aerosol Convection interactions ExpeRiment (HOU) Location: Houston, TX; AMF1 (main site for TRACER) Facility Code: M1 Category: Aerosol Properties Data Type: PI Data Source Instrument/Data: Humidified Tandem Differential Mobility Analyzer; 2 Differential Mobility Analyzers (DMA1 and DMA2). Start Date: 2022-06-01 End Date: 2022-09-26 Contact PI: Markus Petters (mdpetter@ncsu.edu) Funding Source: DOE ASR award US Department of Energy, Office of Science, Biological and Environment Research (grant no. DE-SC 0021074) Instrument description The NCSU HTDMA was operated at a sheath-to-sample flow ratio of 5:1 L min−1. The HTDMA was configured to measure hygroscopic growth factors of dry particles with mobility diameters of D = 15, 20, 30, 40, and 50 nm at RH ~ 70%. A complete cycle for all diameters took ~30 minutes. A sample line brought aerosol inside the trailer at 2.5 L min-1, where it was distributed between NCSU RDMA (1.5 L min-1) and NCSU HTDMA (1 L min-1) lines. The sample line was dried with three silica-gel driers in series, and then neutralized with X-ray neutralizer. The sample line entered DMA1 (operated as an electrostatic classifier). Monodisperse particles with certain fractions were humidified with temperature controlled Nafion membrane immersed in water before entering DMA2 (operated in scanning mobility particle sizer).

AmeriFlux FLUXNET-1F US-KS2 Kennedy Space Center (scrub oak)

This is the AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) created FLUXNET-1F version of the carbon flux data for the site US-KS2 Kennedy Space Center (scrub oak). This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site US-KS2 Kennedy Space Center (scrub oak) produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - The Kennedy Space Center Scrub Oak site is located within the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) on the east coast of central Florida. Situated in a 10 ha scrub oak ecosystem, the surrounding stand was completely burned by a prescribed fire in 1996. The purpose of the burn was to control understory fuel load, which has been a common practice since 1969. Within a few weeks of the 1996 burn, the stand began to naturally regenerate from roots and rhizomes. Most scrub oak stands in the region undergo a 7 to 10 year disturbance cycle, mostly related to fire or hurricane activity. A severe drought gripped most of Florida beginning in 1998 until the later half of 2001 resulting in four years of relatively low amount of annual rainfall. Exceptionally high annual rainfall amount in 2004 was the result of a pair of hurricanes that hit the area in August and September of 2004. Prevaling wind directions for the site are as follows: W to NW in the winter, afternoon E sea breeze in the summer.
