Title: Mobile temperature measurements and surrounding canopy characteristics in downtown Madison, WI, summer 2023
This dataset includes temperature and solar radiation measurements collected by a bicycle-mounted mobile sensor. Measurements were collected along four different transects in downtown neighborhoods in Madison, Wisconsin, over the course of five days during the 2023 summer. In addition to the measurements made by the mobile sensor, this dataset includes attributes of surrounding street trees, impervious cover, and overhead canopy cover, within 15 m, 25 m, and 35 m radii of each measurement location.  more » « less

  1. This dataset provides a comprehensive set of side channels from fused deposition modeling 3D printers in order to enable the research in the security of additive manufacturing processes against side channel attacks. These attacks exploit indirect signal emanations from physical processes to extract information about a system. Our data was collected using two different methods (iPhone app and Teensy 4.0 sensor system) on two different 3D printers (Bambu Lab P1P and A1 mini), and consists of two types of data, audio data in the form of the recording of the 3D printer's sound while printing, and vibration data in the form of the linear acceleration in the cartesian coordinates. The dataset includes data from 12 different 3D objects that cover a wide variety of movements made while 3D printing. Along with the side channels this dataset includes the source computer-aided design files of the objects, as well as .gcode and .3mf files used by the printers.

  2. {"Abstract":["This dataset includes plant species cover and height data measured\n in 1 m x 1 m quadrats at several sites and experiments under the\n Sevilleta LTER program. Quadrat locations span four distinct\n ecosystems and their ecotones: creosotebush dominated Chihuahuan\n Desert shrubland (est. winter 1999), black grama-dominated\n Chihuahuan Desert grassland (est. winter 1999), blue grama-dominated\n Plains grassland (est. winter 2002), and pinon-juniper woodland\n (est. winter 2003). Data on plant cover and height for each plant\n species are collected per individual plant or patch (for clonal\n plants) within 1 m x 1 m quadrats. These data inform population\n dynamics of foundational and rare plant species. In addition, using\n plant allometries, these non-destructive measurements of plant cover\n and height can be used to calculate net primary production (NPP), a\n fundamental ecosystem variable that quantifies rates of carbon\n consumption and fixation. Estimates of plant species cover, total\n plant biomass, or NPP can inform understanding of biodiversity,\n species composition, and energy flow at the community scale of\n biological organization, as well as spatial and temporal responses\n of plants to a range of ecological processes and direct experimental\n manipulations. The cover and height of individual plants or patches\n are sampled twice yearly (spring and fall) in permanent 1m x 1m\n plots within each site or experiment. This dataset includes core\n site monitoring data (CORE, GRIDS, ISOWEB, TOWER), observations in\n response to wildfire (BURN), and experimental treatments of extreme\n drought and delayed monsoon rainfall (EDGE), physical disturbance to\n biological soil crusts on the soil surface (CRUST), interannual\n variability in precipitation (MEANVAR), intra-annual variability via\n additions of monsoon rainfall (MRME), additions of nitrogen as\n ammonium nitrate (FERTILIZER), additions of nitrogen x phosphorus x\n potassium (NutNet), and interacting effects of nighttime warming,\n nitrogen addition, and El Niño winter rainfall (WENNDEx). To build\n allometric equations that relate biomass to plant cover or volume, a\n separate dataset of selectively harvested plant species is provided\n in "SEV-LTER Plant species mass data for allometry."\n Together, these datasets produce \u201cSEV-LTER Plant biomass all sites\n and experiments\u201d using the scripts posted with that dataset. Data\n from the CORE sites in this dataset were designated as NA-US-011 in\n the Global Index of Vegetation-Plot Databases (GIVD).

  4. This dataset contains broadband albedo measurements made on the sea ice surface from approximately 1-meter (m) elevation during April – September 2020 as part of the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition in the Central Arctic Ocean. Measurements were made in three modes: (i) along ‘albedo lines’, between 60-200 meters (m) in length, with measurements every 5 meters (or 10 meters on leg 3), (ii) at specific ‘library sites,’ or (iii) ‘experiments’. Albedo lines were chosen with the aim of crossing representative surface conditions during the summer sea ice evolution, including snow-covered ridges, bare ice, and ponded ice. Included in the dataset are classification of the surface cover and depth for most measurements. Broadband albedo data was collected using a Kipp and Zonen albedometer. This dataset is collocated with the spectral albedo dataset (doi.org/10.18739/A2FT8DK8Z) and albedo photo dataset (doi.org/10.18739/A2B27PS3N).

  5. This dataset contains spectral albedo data recorded on the sea ice surface June-September, 2020, during the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition expedition in the Central Arctic Ocean. Measurements were made in three modes: (i) along ‘albedo lines’, between 60-200 meters (m) in length, with measurements every 5 meters, (ii) at specific ‘library sites,’ or (iii) ‘experiments’. Albedo lines were chosen with the aim of crossing representative surface conditions during the summer sea ice evolution, including snow-covered ridges, bare ice, and ponded ice. Included in the dataset are classification of the surface cover and depth for most measurements. Spectral albedo data was collected using an Analytical Spectral Devices (ASD) FieldSpec Pro spectroradio meter with a custom spectralon cosine collector. Incident and reflected values were recorded subsequently, with 10 scans averaged for each.Processing of the data includes calculating an albedo from the relative values of incident and reflected scans, and completing quality control to (i) correct for parabolic offset between sensors, (ii) add flag quantifying variability of incident light that may be used to filter scans, (iii) remove scans with physically unrealistic values or slopes, and (iv) remove and filter noisy parts of the spectrum. This dataset is collocated with the broadband albedo dataset (doi.org/10.18739/A2KK94D36) and albedo photo dataset (doi.org/10.18739/A2B27PS3N).
