Respiration data, microbial community assembly data, and FTICR-MS data associated with: “Disturbance Triggers Non-Linear Microbe-Environment Feedbacks. Sengupta et al., 2021, Biogeosciences”

This data package is associated with the manuscript “Disturbance Triggers Non-Linear Microbe-Environment Feedbacks, in revision in Biogeosciences (Sengupta et al. and 2021;https://bg.copernicus.org/preprints/bg-2021-51/). The study used hyporheic zone sediments as a model system to provide an integrated view of how disturbance modulates linkages among microbial ecology, biogeochemistry, and organic matter thermodynamics. Laboratory experiments exposed hyporheic sediment to varying wetting/drying dynamics. Data types include dissolved oxygen rates used to derive respiration rates, Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS) data used to derive thermodynamic properties of organic matter, and microbial community assembly metrics derived from amplicon-sequence data of putatively active (cDNA) and whole community (gDNA). The outcomes of the study are condensed into a broadly applicable conceptual model linking external forcing, internal dynamics, and history. This data package is comprised of a file-level metadata (FLMD) csv, metadata csv, and seven folders that contain csv files, R scripts, xml files, and associated documentation: (1) Rates, (2) bNTI, and (3) FTICR, (4) Statistics_Analyses, (5) Raw OTU Beta dispersion Analysis, (6) bMNTD Randomizations, and (7) Data Dictionaries. The FLMD file has a description of each file included in the data package.

PyMDA : microcrystal data assembly using Python

The recent developments at microdiffraction X-ray beamlines are making microcrystals of macromolecules appealing subjects for routine structural analysis. Microcrystal diffraction data collected at synchrotron microdiffraction beamlines may be radiation damaged with incomplete data per microcrystal and with unit-cell variations. A multi-stage data assembly method has previously been designed for microcrystal synchrotron crystallography. Here the strategy has been implemented as a Python program for microcrystal data assembly ( PyMDA ). PyMDA optimizes microcrystal data quality including weak anomalous signals through iterative crystal and frame rejections. Beyond microcrystals, PyMDA may be applicable for assembling data sets from larger crystals for improved data quality.

Report on the Global Data Assembly Center (GDAC) to the 12th GHRSST Science Team Meeting

In 2010/2011 the Global Data Assembly Center (GDAC) at NASA's Physical Oceanography Distributed Active Archive Center (PO.DAAC) continued its role as the primary clearinghouse and access node for operational Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature (GHRSST) datastreams, as well as its collaborative role with the NOAA Long Term Stewardship and Reanalysis Facility (LTSRF) for archiving. Here we report on our data management activities and infrastructure improvements since the last science team meeting in June 2010.These include the implementation of all GHRSST datastreams in the new PO.DAAC Data Management and Archive System (DMAS) for more reliable and timely data access. GHRSST dataset metadata are now stored in a new database that has made the maintenance and quality improvement of metadata fields more straightforward. A content management system for a revised suite of PO.DAAC web pages allows dynamic access to a subset of these metadata fields for enhanced dataset description as well as discovery through a faceted search mechanism from the perspective of the user. From the discovery and metadata standpoint the GDAC has also implemented the NASA version of the OpenSearch protocol for searching for GHRSST granules and developed a web service to generate ISO 19115-2 compliant metadata records. Furthermore, the GDAC has continued to implement a new suite of tools and services for GHRSST datastreams including a Level 2 subsetter known as Dataminer, a revised POET Level 3/4 subsetter and visualization tool, a Google Earth interface to selected daily global Level 2 and Level 4 data, and experimented with a THREDDS catalog of GHRSST data collections. Finally we will summarize the expanding user and data statistics, and other metrics that we have collected over the last year demonstrating the broad user community and applications that the GHRSST project continues to serve via the GDAC distribution mechanisms. This report also serves by extension to summarize the activities of the GHRSST Data Assembly and Systems Technical Advisory Group (DAS-TAG).

Optimization of the deep neural network parameters for generating homogenized fuel assembly data for nodal codes

Homogenized fuel assembly (FA) data is a typical input data for nodal codes. Generating that data, however, could be time-consuming. One of promising ways to mitigate the computational burden of generating macroscopic cross-sections is to use trained artificial neural network (ANN) models for predicting nuclear data. However, there is a challenge to make the model support variable FA geometry. In this work, two most common types of FA were combined in one ANN model. Since there could be multiple ways of converting 2-dimensional FA data into 1-dimensional input vector for ANN, three different approaches of data flattening were evaluated. The input parameters included each fuel pin enrichment, fuel temperature, moderator temperature and boron concentration. The output parameters were 2-group macroscopic cross-sections (XS) and pin power distribution (HFF). A fully connected deep neural network (DNN) model was trained and tested using pre-generated data obtained with lattice physics code STREAM. The results of this study showed no statistically significant difference in the accuracy of XS and HFF generation for all 3 tested input vector orders. This means that fully connected DNN for XS generation demonstrated input sequence invariance. Results of comparing predicted XS data with reference solutions were found sufficiently close considering the reduction of computation time offered by ANN. Mean relative difference (MRD) for all output XS parameters was found below 0.7%, while HFF MRD was found higher compared to XS values, in some cases slightly exceeding 1%, mostly near guide tube locations.

NASA Wrangler: Automated Cloud-Based Data Assembly in the RECOVER Wildfire Decision Support System

NASA Wrangler is a loosely-coupled, event driven, highly parallel data aggregation service designed to take advantageof the elastic resource capabilities of cloud computing. Wrangler automatically collects Earth observational data, climate model outputs, derived remote sensing data products, and historic biophysical data for pre-, active-, and post-wildfire decision making. It is a core service of the RECOVER decision support system, which is providing rapid-response GIS analytic capabilities to state and local government agencies. Wrangler reduces to minutes the time needed to assemble and deliver crucial wildfire-related data.

Space Science and Technology Partnership Forum: In-Space Assembly Data Collection and Analysis

The Space Science and Technology Partnership Forum was established in 2015 to identify synergistic efforts and technologies across the government. In-Space Assembly (iSA) is the focus of the topic area that NASA is currently coordinating with other government agencies. This paper focuses on the data collection process, the data analysis of that information, and preliminary insights gleaned from the data. The goal of the analysis is to understand the linkages within the collected data, identifying synergies and gaps, and provide visualization of the current state of iSA needs and capability development across the government. Capability roadmaps, Venn diagrams, bubble charts, and scorecards (an overview of each individual iSA capability) are used to visualize the results of this analysis, which reveals areas of possible inter-agency collaboration, investment gaps in capabilities relative to the need, and capabilities that warrant engagement across multiple agencies to eliminate potential inefficiencies.
