Dimethylsulfide (DMS) emitted from the ocean is a biogenic precursor gas for sulfur dioxide (SO₂) and non-sea-salt sulfate aerosols (SO₄²⁻). During the VAMOS-Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study Regional Experiment (VOCALS-REx) in 2008, multiple instrumented platforms were deployed in the Southeastern Pacific (SEP) off the coast of Chile and Peru to study the linkage...
This dataset is designed to capture landscape changes brought on by a severe tree mortality episode in California's southern Sierra Nevada range, by mapping multiple land cover types in a continuous way at annual time-steps throughout the mortality event. By mapping multiple land cover types we can see not only...
These high resolution (5x5-meter pixel) categorical models of land cover were created by training random forest classification models on
RapidEye (Planet Labs Inc.) satellite spectral data for each year and then predicting those models across the landscape. Training data were created by visually interpreting random plots over high resolution NAIP...
Mechanical property degradation due to the disorder-order phase transformation is of potential concern for alloys based on the Ni-Cr binary system, particularly in nuclear power applications, where component lifetimes can exceed 80 years. In the present research, a disorder-order phase transformation has been studied in the Ni-33 at.% Cr model...
The Collection 6 (C6) MODIS (Moderate Resolution
Imaging Spectroradiometer) land and atmosphere data
sets are scheduled for release in 2014. C6 contains significant
revisions of the calibration approach to account for sensor
aging. This analysis documents the presence of systematic
temporal trends in the visible and near-infrared (500 m)
bands...
Native bees are critically important organisms that support biodiversity and crop production via their pollination services. Wildfires in temperate conifer forests can increase bee abundance and flowering plant density due to increased light exposure, but little information is available regarding how wildfire severity influences provisioning to bee offspring, which is...
Inorganic structures play an important role in materials due to their versatility and diversity. A complete understanding of the structure of a material is vital to enhance the creation of new materials that fill voids in research. The rational design of these compounds is driven by the exploitation of structure-property...
Characterization of canopy structure, the horizontal and vertical distribution of the tree crowns in a forest, is important for the management of forests in the Pacific Northwest. The canopy is an important habitat element for many wildlife species, canopy structure affects understory development, and influences various natural processes, such as...
Occlusive thrombi that cause cardiovascular diseases form on the walls of blood vessels and propagate across the lumen under pressure gradient-driven flow, impaired antithrombotic, and enhanced prothrombotic conditions. Development of a well controlled and validated ex vivo model that can mimic these pathological conditions would provide a useful tool for...
