Remote Sensing Approach for Monitoring Tree Health Adjacent to Transmission Corridors

This study presents an initial proof-of-concept for a satellite-based remote sensing approach to identify and monitor potential areas of poor tree health across the entire BPA service territory on an annual basis. We tested three variants of “delta peak NDVI” ( ΔPN ) change detection metrics that express interannual variation in primary productivity relative to a baseline by comparing ΔPN values for known insect/disease disturbances and nearby reference locations. All three metrics showed promise for detecting poor tree health in the year during disturbance, but the metric based on the difference from the long-term (2016-2024) median ( Δ Med PN ) was preferred due to its responsiveness to change in the years during and after disturbance, resilience to interannual variation, and ease of interpretation as being above or below normal. Comparison of Δ Med PN grouped by relative severity of disturbance indicated it was not sensitive enough to detect “low” severity disturbances, as mapped by USGS’s LANDFIRE program, but could distinguish “moderate” and “high” severity disturbances from reference locations. These findings informed selection of a threshold for Δ Med PN , which was combined with areas exhibiting negative NDVI to map potential areas of concern. Visual inspection of before/after high-resolution imagery and NDVI time series showed that many areas of concern aligned with visible signs of defoliation and die-off as well as other types of disturbance (e.g., landslides, logging, road grading, flooding). Some areas of concern are thought to be false detections caused by persistent shadow, and some could not be explained with visual inspection due to spatiotemporal limitations of before/after imagery. In summary, our approach shows promise for large-scale monitoring of tree health adjacent to BPA transmission lines, but additional work is recommended to improve model sophistication and remove noise.

Reservoir Sediment Management and Monitoring Database

Overview This dataset compiles dam sediment management and monitoring information from surveys, case studies, and journal articles. Additionally, features described by the National Inventory of Dams (i.e., presence of sluice gates) are included to indicate known infrastructure features that may address sediment releases. The location and description of records from downstream monitoring gages are catalogued in order to help with tracking conditions over time (e.g., before and after management actions, as operations change, etc.). The data help address national scale understanding of challenges and solutions related to the accumulation of sediment behind a dam as well as downstream passage. Sediment trapping causes problems as it reduces storage capacity, disrupts dam and reservoir function, impedes access for recreation, alters water quality/habitat conditions, and contributes to riverbank and coastal erosion within the reservoir. Data compilation from a variety of sources is a first step towards assessing system-wide efficacy of management solutions. This dataset was developed under the Water Power Technologies Office funded effort which began as a Seedling on Reservoir Sedimentation Data, and was supported by the Reservoir Sedimentation Modeling Framework and Data Analysis project. These projects have addressed challenges in describing sediment transport, trapping, and management at dams throughout the US. Methodology An outer join on dams/reservoirs with surveys and survey reports (documented in the RESSED database, USBR or USACE databases, project websites, etc.) with the National Inventory of Dams, based on the NIDID to determine dams with documented management and/or sluice gates. Additional dams with documented management activity were identified through review of technical articles from the past 25 years in Journal of Hydrology, Journal of Water Resources Planning and Management, Geomorphology, Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, Water, Journal of Cleaner Production, International Journal of Sediment Research, Nature Scientific Reports, Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, and Environmental Science and Pollution Research. Individual records were created for each survey or management activity documented. To evaluate downstream sediment monitoring records, the nhdPlusTools and dataRetrieval packages in R were used to find gages within 10km of each dam in the management database. Length of record and location of matched gages were retrieved for those parameters relevant to sediment concentration or total sediment discharge.

A machine learning based approach to online electron reconstruction at CLAS12

Online reconstruction is key for monitoring purposes and real time analysis in High Energy and Nuclear Physics experiments. A necessary component of reconstruction algorithms is particle identification that combines information left by a particle passing through several detector components to identify the particle’s type. Of particular interest to electro-production Nuclear Physics experiments such as CLAS12 is electron identification which is used to trigger data recording. A machine learning approach was developed for CLAS12 to reconstruct and identify electrons by combining raw signals at the data acquisition level from several detector components. Here, this approach achieves an electron identification purity above 75% whilst retaining an efficiency close to 100%. The machine learning tools are capable of running at high rates exceeding the data acquisition rates and will allow electron reconstruction in real-time. This work enhances online analyses and monitoring and can contribute to improved triggering at CLAS12. This machine learning driven approach will also be crucial for experiments aiming to transition to streaming readout operations where online reconstruction will be a key component of the data taking paradigm.

Implications of Changes in Water Stress and Precipitation Extremes for Cocoa Production in Côte D'ivoire and Ghana

ABSTRACT Climate change induces high variability in drought patterns and extreme precipitation indices in rainfed cocoa farming, impacting cocoa production. This study evaluated water stress, meteorological and agricultural drought conditions, and critical extreme precipitation indices in the world's two largest cocoa‐producing nations from 1981 to 2022. The results revealed a significant reduction in total annual precipitation (PRCPTOT), in the last three decades, with the greatest decline in the 1991–2000 and 2011–2022 periods. Ghana experienced the most significant reduction up to 15% (200 mm/year) in the last decade, attributed to a substantial decrease in wet days number (RR1) up to 25 days per year, a reduction in maximum consecutive wet days (CWD) up to 6 days per year, and an increase in maximum consecutive dry days (CDD) up to 15 days per year. Moreover, there was a notable decline in the Simple Daily Intensity Index (SDII), with reductions of up to 4 mm/day in certain areas, contributing to increased drought frequency, severity, and duration. In the most recent decade (2011–2022), particularly during the extremely dry years of 2013 and 2015, cocoa‐growing regions in Ghana (GHA) and eastern Côte d'Ivoire (CIV) experienced prolonged agricultural drought expressed by soil moisture deficit, typically extending from May to September. Additionally, large portions of central and eastern Ghana, as well as northeastern Côte d'Ivoire experienced sustained water stress, with over three consecutive months of total monthly precipitation falling below 100 mm, negatively impacting cocoa productivity. The decrease in the yield in the range of 2.5% to 37% was noted in the dry years and the following years, varying according to the country depending on the severity of the drought. Sensitivity analysis highlights cocoa yield's responsiveness to drought and water stress, particularly in specific years when water stress occurred, such as 1984,1985, 1989, 1995, 1999, 2000, and 2008. Considering the observed trends in precipitation patterns and their impact on cocoa production, it is crucial to acknowledge the inherent uncertainty of future precipitation patterns due to climate change. To address this challenge effectively, our study underscores the importance of identifying and closely monitoring regions currently facing water stress, as determined by precipitation and drought indicators. Over the analysed period (1981–2022), we have noted shifts in the distribution of water‐stressed areas, highlighting the dynamic nature of this issue. Consequently, we advocate for a targeted approach to implement cocoa supplementary irrigation in consistently water‐stressed regions.

Temperature-dependent calibration procedures for the silicon photomultiplier readout of the cosmic ray veto detector for the Mu2e experiment

The cosmic ray veto detector for the Mu2e experiment consists of scintillation bars embedded with wavelength-shifting fibers and read out by silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs). Here, in this manuscript, the calibration procedures of the SiPMs are described including corrections for the temperature dependence of their light yield. These corrections are needed as the SiPMs are not kept at a constant temperature due to the complexity and cost of implementing a cooling system on such a large detector. Rather, it was decided to monitor the temperature to allow the appropriate corrections to be made. The SiPM temperature dependence has been measured in a dedicated experiment and the calibration procedures were validated with data from production detectors awaiting installation at Fermilab.

A Remote Sensing Technique to Upscale Methane Emission Flux in a Subtropical Peatland

Abstract Quantification of methane (CH 4 ) gas emission from peat is critical to understand CH 4 budget from natural wetlands under a climate warming scenario. Previous studies have focused on prediction and mapping of CH 4 emission flux using process‐based models, while application of statistical‐empirical models for upscaling spatially sparse in situ measurements is scarce. In this study, we developed an empirical remote sensing upscaling approach to estimate CH 4 emission flux in the Everglades using limited in situ point‐based CH 4 emission flux measurements and Landsat data during 2013–2018. We spatially and temporally linked in situ data with Landsat surface reflectance based on temporally composite data sets and developed an object‐based machine learning framework to model and map CH 4 emission flux. An ensemble analysis of two machine learning models, k ‐Nearest Neighbor ( k ‐NN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM), shows that the upscaling approach is promising for predicting CH 4 emission flux with a R 2 of 0.65 and 0.87 based on a fivefold cross‐validation for a dry season and wet season estimation, respectively. We generated emission flux map products that successfully revealed the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of CH 4 emission within the dominant freshwater marsh ecosystem in the Everglades. We conclude that Landsat is promising for upscaling and monitoring CH 4 emission flux and reducing the uncertainty in emission estimates from wetlands.

Microwave-Assisted Hydrogen Generation from Hydrocarbon-Bearing Reservoir Rocks: Stage-Dependent Thermal Runaway and In-Situ Carbonate Engineering

Microwave-assisted hydrogen generation from hydrocarbon-bearing reservoir rocks is strongly influenced by mineralogy, methane activation, carbonate reactions, and thermal runaway behavior. This study investigates a new approach in which carbonate phases are generated in-situ through the reaction of internally produced CO2 with Ca(OH)2 under microwave heating conditions. The objective is to evaluate how rock mineralogy, methane injection, and Ca(OH)2 addition influence hydrogen generation, carbon redistribution, and stage-dependent reaction pathways during microwave exposure. Microwave heating experiments were conducted using Permian Basin reservoir rocks under three experimental conditions: rock-only experiments under Ar atmosphere, CH4–Ar experiments without additive, and CH4–Ar experiments containing 5 wt% Ca(OH)2. Methane-assisted experiments were performed under continuous injection of 30 standard cubic centimeters per minute (sccm) CH4 and 30 sccm Ar. Based on thermal runaway behavior, each experiment was divided into three operational stages: Before Thermal Runaway (BR), After Thermal Runaway–Decrease in Microwave Power (ARD), and After Thermal Runaway– Increase in Microwave Power (ARI). Temperature and gas composition were continuously monitored throughout the experiments. The rock-only experiments demonstrated that hydrogen generation can occur intrinsically from hydrocarbon-bearing rocks under microwave heating, even without externally injected methane. However, hydrogen production did not correlate solely with kerogen content, indicating that mineralogy strongly influences hydrogen-generation pathways. Correlation analyses suggested that kerogen decomposition initially generated CH4, CO, and CO2, followed by secondary hydrocarbon reactions associated with H2 and C2 hydrocarbon formation. Methane-assisted experiments substantially increased hydrogen production; however, identical methane injection rates produced significantly different hydrogen yields among the rock samples, confirming that mineralogical composition controls methaneconversion behavior under microwave heating conditions. The addition of Ca(OH)2 significantly altered carbon evolution behavior in a stage-dependent manner. During the BR stage, Ca(OH)2 reduced gas-phase CO2 production, particularly in carbonate-rich rocks, indicating favorable conditions for in-situ carbonation and carbonate deposition prior to extensive thermal decomposition. The suppression of CO2 during BR became more pronounced with increasing carbonate content of the rock system. After thermal runaway, carbonate-containing systems exhibited enhanced hydrogen generation behavior, suggesting that carbonatederived mineral transformations and carbonate-mediated reactions contribute to high-temperature hydrogen-generation pathways. In carbonate-poor rocks, Ca(OH)2 addition enabled simultaneous URTeC 4493775 2 enhancement of hydrogen production and partial suppression of CO2 release during the post-runaway stages. Overall, the results demonstrate that microwave-assisted hydrogen generation is governed by dynamically evolving interactions among kerogen decomposition, methane activation, mineral transformations, carbonate formation/decomposition, and thermal runaway behavior. This work introduces in-situ carbonate engineering with Ca(OH)2 as a strategy for coupling hydrogen generation with partial insitu carbon management under microwave heating conditions.

Abstract for CRADA between NETL and GlycoSurf, Inc.

The National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) and GlycoSurf, Inc. (Participant) will collaborate in the development of novel luminescent sensing materials for rare earth elements using chemically modified surfactants. Rare earth elements are economically critical metals that are used in many technologies relevant to both energy and national defense. Slow and expensive characterization methods for rare earth element analysis are a major pain point for domestic production of these metals; the development of low-cost optical sensing materials and platforms can significantly reduce the time and financial costs associated with rare earth element prospecting and process monitoring. NETL has extensive experience developing inexpensive and compact optical sensors for critical metals such as rare earths. GlycoSurf, Inc. has commercialized high performance surfactants for the selective extraction of rare earth elements in complex environments such as acid mine drainage. By modifying these surfactants with fluorescent functional groups, trace concentrations of rare earths may be detected through a process called “photosensitization,” where the sensing material induces element-specific emission bands that enable different rare earth elements to be detected and distinguished. This project will enable the development of sensing materials capable of selectively detecting trace quantities of valuable rare earths in challenging conditions, including high ionic strength, highly acidic matrices.

Airborne hyperspectral imaging of nitrogen deficiency on crop traits and yield of maize by machine learning and radiative transfer modeling

Nitrogen is an essential nutrient that directly affects plant photosynthesis, crop yield, and biomass production for bioenergy crops, but excessive application of nitrogen fertilizers can cause environmental degradation. To achieve sustainable nitrogen fertilizer management for precision agriculture, there is an urgent need for nondestructive and high spatial resolution monitoring of crop nitrogen and its allocation to photosynthetic proteins as that changes over time. Here, we used visible to shortwave infrared (400–2400 nm) airborne hyperspectral imaging with high spatial (0.5 m) and spectral (3–5 nm) resolutions to accurately estimate critical crop traits, i.e., nitrogen, chlorophyll, and photosynthetic capacity (CO 2 -saturated photosynthesis rate, V max,27 ), at leaf and canopy scales, and to assess nitrogen deficiency on crop yield. We conducted three airborne campaigns over a maize (Zea mays L.) field during the growing season of 2019. Physically based soil-canopy Radiative Transfer Modeling (RTM) and data-driven approaches i.e. Partial-Least Squares Regression (PLSR) were used to retrieve crop traits from hyperspectral reflectance, with ground truth of leaf nitrogen, chlorophyll, V max,27 , Leaf Area Index (LAI), and harvested grain yield. To improve computational efficiency of RTMs, Random Forest (RF) was used to mimic RTM simulations to generate machine learning surrogate models RTM-RF. The results show that prior knowledge of soil background and leaf angle distribution can significantly reduce the ill-posed RTM retrieval. RTM-RF achieved a high accuracy to predict leaf chlorophyll content (R 2 = 0.73) and LAI (R 2 = 0.75). Meanwhile, PLSR exhibited better accuracy to predict leaf chlorophyll content (R 2 = 0.79), nitrogen concentration (R 2 = 0.83), nitrogen content (R 2 = 0.77), and V max,27 (R 2 = 0.69) but required measured traits for model training. We also found that canopy structure signals can enhance the use of spectral data to predict nitrogen related photosynthetic traits, as combining RTM-RF LAI and PLSR leaf traits well predicted canopy-level traits (leaf traits × LAI) including canopy chlorophyll (R 2 = 0.80), nitrogen (R 2 = 0.85) and V max,27 (R 2 = 0.82). Compared to leaf traits, we further found that canopy-level photosynthetic traits, particularly canopy V max,27 , have higher correlation with maize grain yield. This study highlights the potential for synergistic use of process-based and data-driven approaches of hyperspectral imaging to quantify crop traits that facilitate precision agricultural management to secure food and bioenergy production.

In situ characterization of material extrusion printing by near-infrared spectroscopy

Material extrusion printing of reactive resins and inks present a unique challenge due to the time-dependent nature of the rheological and chemical properties they possess. As a result, careful print optimization or process control is important to obtain consistent, high quality prints via additive manufacturing. Here, we present the design and use of a near-infrared (NIR) flow through cell for in situ chemical monitoring of reactive resins during printing. Differences between in situ and off-line benchtop measurements are presented and highlight the need for in-line monitoring capability. Additionally, in-line extrusion force monitoring and off-line post inspection using machine vision is demonstrated. By combining NIR and extrusion force monitoring, it is possible to follow cure reaction kinetics and viscosity changes during printing. When combined with machine vision, the ability to automatically identify and quantify print artifacts can be incorporated on the printing line to enable real-time, artificial intelligence-assisted quality control of both process and product. Together, these techniques form the building blocks of an optimized closed-loop process control strategy when complex reactive inks must be used to produce printed hardware.

Constrained power reference control for wind turbines

The cost of wind energy can be reduced by controlling the power reference of a turbine to increase energy capture, while maintaining load and generator speed constraints. We apply standard torque and pitch controllers to the direct inputs of the turbine and use their set points to change the power output and reduce generator speed and blade load transients. A power reference controller increases the power output when conditions are safe and decreases it when problematic transient events are expected. Transient generator speeds and blade loads are estimated using a gust measure derived from a wind speed estimate. A hybrid controller decreases the power rating from a maximum allowable power. Compared to a baseline controller, with a constant power reference, the proposed controller results in generator speeds and blade loads that do not exceed the original limits, increases tower fore-aft damage equivalent loads by 1%, and increases the annual energy production by 5%.

Monitoring of dielectric permittivity in accelerated alkali-silica reaction concrete with microwave backscattering

Deterioration of concrete due to the alkali–silica reaction (ASR) involves a reaction between alkaline ions in the cement pore solution and non-crystalline silica found in many aggregates. The product of reaction is a porous hydrophilic ASR gel, which causes expansion and cracking of concrete structure. Currently, there is no reliable method for non-destructive evaluation of ASR. We have investigated the feasibility of using relative dielectric permittivity obtained from X-band microwave backscattering of concrete. Advantages of this method of concrete evaluation are that measurements are non-contact and one-sided, and the approach is scalable to arbitrary-size concrete structures. The exploratory study was performed using an unrestrained set of accelerated ASR concrete prism specimens developed according to the ASTM1293 standard. One set of specimens contained no entrained air, while another set was contained entrained air. The specimens were removed from the environmental chamber at different times during a year-long study to create a set of different ASR maturity specimens. Strain measurements were performed on all specimens. Strain data both air entrained and non-air entrained sets were shown to be in close agreement with Larive model of isothermal unrestrained ASR expansion with similar fitting parameters. Furthermore, relative dielectric permittivity of concrete specimens was correlated with strain data. Both sets show correlation between dielectric permittivity and strain, with stronger linear correlation observed for the air-entrained specimens. Development of such correlation would enable estimating expansion of actual concrete structures from microwave backscattering measurements, which could be used for risk stratification to guide and minimize coring.

Determination of Average Burnup in AGR-3/4 Compacts 1-4 and 7-4

The Advanced Gas Reactor (AGR) Fuel Development and Qualification Program third and fourth irradiation experiments (AGR-3/4), originally planned as separate tests, were combined in one test train for irradiation in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) at Idaho National Laboratory (INL). The irradiation test began on December 14, 2011, and ended on April 12, 2014 (Collin 2016). The originally planned AGR-3 and AGR-4 irradiation experiments were both focused on obtaining data on fission product transport to support the improvement of modeling. The AGR-3 experimental plan was focused on gaseous and metallic fission product release from the kernels and diffusion in the coatings during irradiation and post-irradiation safety testing. The AGR-4 experimental plan was focused on diffusivities and sorptivities in the compact matrix and reactor graphite. These two goals were combined in the AGR-3/4 irradiation, which consisted of 12 independently monitored capsules that each contained four AGR-3/4 compacts in a single stack surrounded by an inner ring of matrix or graphite and an outer ring of graphite. Two capsule types were used: a standard capsule and a so-called fuel body, in which the outer graphite ring included a floor and cap that fully enclosed the fuel. The fuel body design supported post-irradiation safety testing of the intact fuel and ring assembly to provide data on fission product transport and release from the matrix and graphite at accident temperatures.

Developing Fluorescence-Based Sensors to Support Rare Earth Element Separation

Rare earth elements (REEs) are essential to most renewable energy technologies. Unfortunately, as we transition to sustainable energy production, the demand for REEs is rapidly growing well beyond current rates of production. As a result, novel means of efficient, scalable, and easily adaptable methods for processing primary and recycle feedstocks are needed. Development and integration of sensors for highly selective in-line monitoring can support more efficient design and testing of such novel separation processes, as well as more cost-effective deployment of those separation flowsheets. Work here will explore the application of fluorescence spectroscopy, a highly sensitive and selective technique, to quantify multiple lanthanides in complex mixtures including known interferents or quenching agents. Results include identification of the optimal excitation wavelength and the limit of detection of various rare earth elements as well as the performance of data-science-based quantification approaches in streams where “unknowns” are present. Overall, the data science tools in conjunction with optical sensor data were able to quantify analytes in the presence of other lanthanides which can be anticipated in the actual industrial stream. Here we include characterization of lanthanides in a microfluidic device similar to those used in new process development. This study demonstrates the capability of utilizing fluorescence spectroscopy to quantify analytes in a complicated solution matrix, suggesting this is a successful approach for in-line monitoring to optimize the separation efficiency in an industrial stream.

Observation of Quasiparticle Pair Production and Quantum Entanglement in Atomic Quantum Gases Quenched to an Attractive Interaction

We report observation of quasiparticle pair-production and characterize quantum entanglement created by a modulational instability in an atomic superfluid. By quenching the atomic interaction to attractive and then back to weakly repulsive, we produce correlated quasiparticles and monitor their evolution in a superfluid through evaluating the in situ density noise power spectrum, which essentially measures a 'homodyne' interference between ground state atoms and quasiparticles of opposite momenta. We observe large amplitude growth in the power spectrum and subsequent coherent oscillations in a wide spatial frequency band within our resolution limit, demonstrating coherent quasiparticle generation and evolution. Here, the spectrum is observed to oscillate below a quantum limit set by the Peres-Horodecki separability criterion of continuous-variable states, thereby confirming quantum entanglement between interaction quench-induced quasiparticles.
