This dataset includes data on soil properties, soil N pools, and soil N fluxes presented in the manuscript, "Refining the role of nitrogen mineralization in mycorrhizal nutrient syndromes". Please refer to that publication for details about methodologies used to generate these data and for the experimental design.
For this verison 2, we added specific gross nitrogen mineralization rates (ugN/gOM/d), microbial biomass carbon (ugC/gdw), microbial biomass nitrogen (ugN/gdw) and microbial biomass C:N ratios to the newest version of the data set. Additionally, we updated values for gross nitrogen mineralization, microbial NO3 assimilation and microbial NH4 assimilation to reflect slight changes in data processing. Those changes are reflected in "220829_All data_repository.csv". "220829_nitrogen_mineralization_readme.txt " is updated readme for the new file. The other 2 files begin with “220426_” are older version and same as in V1.

These data were used to make a predictive model of when ornate box turtles (Terrapene ornata) are likely to be above ground and at risk from fire. The data were generated using shell temperatures, soil temperatures at 0.35 m deep from known overwintering sites, and the spring and fall soil temperature inversion dates during 2019–2022 to infer if 26 individual radio-tracked turtles were above or below ground at three sites in Illinois.

Rising global temperatures and urban heat island effects challenge environmental health and energy systems at the city level, particularly in summer. Increased heatwaves raise energy demand for cooling, stressing power facilities, increasing costs, and risking blackouts. Heat impacts vary across cities due to differences in urban morphology, geography, land use, and land cover, highlighting vulnerable areas needing targeted heat mitigation. Urban tree canopies, a nature-based solution, effectively mitigate heat. Trees provide shade and cooling through evaporation, improving thermal comfort, reducing air conditioning energy consumption, and enhancing climate resilience. This report focused on the ComEd service area in the Chicago Metropolitan Region and assessed the impacts of population growth, urbanization, climate change, and an ambitious plan to plant 1 million trees. The report evaluated planting 1 million trees to quantify regional cooling effects projected for the 2030s. Afforestation locations were selected to avoid interference with existing infrastructure.
Key findings include (i) extreme hot hours (>95°F) will increase from 30 to 200 per year, adding 420 Cooling Degree Days (CCD) by the 2030s, (ii) greener areas can be up to 10°F cooler than less vegetated neighborhoods in summer, (iii) tree canopies can create localized cooling, reducing temperatures by 0.7°F and lowering annual CCD by 60 to 65, and (iv) afforestation can reduce the region’s temperature by 0.7°F, saving 400 to 1100 Megawatt hours of daily power usage during summer.

Overview
- This dataset includes 1,089 two-dimensional slices extracted from 3D numerical breast phantoms (NBPs) for ultrasound computed tomography (USCT) studies. The anatomical structures of these NBPs were obtained using tools from the Virtual Imaging Clinical Trial for Regulatory Evaluation (VICTRE) project. The methods used to modify and extend the VICTRE NBPs for use in USCT studies are described in the publication cited above.
- The NBPs in this dataset represent the following four ACR BI-RADS breast composition categories:
> Type A - The breast is almost entirely fatty
> Type B - There are scattered areas of fibroglandular density in the breast
> Type C - The breast is heterogeneously dense
> Type D - The breast is extremely dense
- Each 2D slice is taken from a different 3D NBP, ensuring that no more than one slice comes from any single phantom.
File Name Format
- Each data file is stored as an HDF5 .mat file. The filenames follow this format: {type}{subject_id}.mat where{type} indicates the breast type (A, B, C, or D), and {subject_id} is a unique identifier assigned to each sample. For example, in the filename D510022534.mat, "D" represents the breast type, and "510022534" is the sample ID.
File Contents
- Each file contains the following variables:
> "type": Breast type
> "sos": Speed-of-sound map [mm/μs]
> "den": Ambient density map [kg/mm³]
> "att": Acoustic attenuation (power-law prefactor) map [dB/ MHzʸ mm]
> "y": power-law exponent
> "label": Tissue label map. Tissue types are denoted using the following labels: water (0), fat (1), skin (2), glandular tissue (29), ligament (88), lesion (200).
- All spatial maps ("sos", "den", "att", and "label") have the same spatial dimensions of 2560 x 2560 pixels, with a pixel size of 0.1 mm x 0.1 mm.
- "sos", "den", and "att" are float32 arrays, and "label" is an 8-bit unsigned integer array.

MapAffil 2016 dataset -- PubMed author affiliations mapped to cities and their geocodes worldwide. Prepared by Vetle Torvik 2018-04-05
The dataset comes as a single tab-delimited Latin-1 encoded file (only the City column uses non-ASCII characters), and should be about 3.5GB uncompressed.
• How was the dataset created?
The dataset is based on a snapshot of PubMed (which includes Medline and PubMed-not-Medline records) taken in the first week of October, 2016.
Check here for information to get PubMed/MEDLINE, and NLMs data <a href ="https://www.nlm.nih.gov/databases/download/pubmed_medline.html">Terms and Conditions</a>
• Affiliations are linked to a particular author on a particular article. Prior to 2014, NLM recorded the affiliation of the first author only.
However, MapAffil 2016 covers some PubMed records lacking affiliations that were harvested elsewhere, from PMC (e.g., PMID 22427989), NIH grants (e.g., 1838378), and Microsoft Academic Graph and ADS (e.g. 5833220).
• Affiliations are pre-processed (e.g., transliterated into ASCII from UTF-8 and html) so they may differ (sometimes a lot; see PMID 27487542) from PubMed records.
• All affiliation strings where processed using the MapAffil procedure, to identify and disambiguate the most specific place-name, as described in:
<i>Torvik VI. MapAffil: A bibliographic tool for mapping author affiliation strings to cities and their geocodes worldwide. D-Lib Magazine 2015; 21 (11/12). 10p</i>
• Look for <a href="https://doi.org/10.1186/s41182-017-0073-6">Fig. 4</a> in the following article for coverage statistics over time:
<i>Palmblad M, Torvik VI. Spatiotemporal analysis of tropical disease research combining Europe PMC and affiliation mapping web services. Tropical medicine and health. 2017 Dec;45(1):33.</i>
Expect to see big upticks in coverage of PMIDs around 1988 and for non-first authors in 2014.
• The code and back-end data is periodically updated and made available for query by PMID at <a href="http://abel.ischool.illinois.edu/">Torvik Research Group</a>
• What is the format of the dataset?
The dataset contains 37,406,692 rows. Each row (line) in the file has a unique PMID and author postition (e.g., 10786286_3 is the third author name on PMID 10786286), and the following thirteen columns, tab-delimited. All columns are ASCII, except city which contains Latin-1.
1. PMID: positive non-zero integer; int(10) unsigned
2. au_order: positive non-zero integer; smallint(4)
3. lastname: varchar(80)
4. firstname: varchar(80); NLM started including these in 2002 but many have been harvested from outside PubMed
5. year of publication:
6. type: EDU, HOS, EDU-HOS, ORG, COM, GOV, MIL, UNK
7. city: varchar(200); typically 'city, state, country' but could inlude further subvisions; unresolved ambiguities are concatenated by '|'
8. state: Australia, Canada and USA (which includes territories like PR, GU, AS, and post-codes like AE and AA)
9. country
10. journal
11. lat: at most 3 decimals (only available when city is not a country or state)
12. lon: at most 3 decimals (only available when city is not a country or state)
13. fips: varchar(5); for USA only retrieved by lat-lon query to https://geo.fcc.gov/api/census/block/find

___________________________________SUMMARY
This dataset contains derivative data from concurrent fMRI and scalp EEG recordings used in:
Mostame Parham, Wirsich Jonathan, Alderson Thomas H, Ridley Ben, Giraud Anne-Lise, Carmichael David W, Vulliemoz Serge, Guye Maxime, Lemieux Louis, Sadaghiani Sepideh (2024) A multiplex of connectome trajectories enables several connectivity patterns in parallel eLife 13:RP98777. doi: https://doi.org/10.7554/eLife.98777.3
___________________________________RAW DATA
The data has been originally published and described as part of other studies (Morillon et al., 2010; Sadaghiani et al., 2012). Briefly, 10 minutes of eyes-closed resting state were analyzed from 26 healthy subjects (average age = 24.39 years; range: 18-31 years; 8 females) with no history of psychiatric or neurological disorders. Informed consent was given by each participant and the study was approved by the local Research Ethics Committee (CPP Ile de France III). FMRI was acquired using a 3T Siemens Tim Trio scanner with a GE-EPI pulse sequence (TR = 2 s; TE = 50 ms; 40 slices; 300 volumes; field of view: 192×192; voxel size: 3×3×3 mm3). Structural T1-weighted scan were acquired using the MPRAGE pulse sequence (176 slices; field of view: 256×256; voxel size: 1×1×1 mm3). 62-channel scalp EEG (Easycap, with an additional EOG and an ECG channel) was recorded using an MR-compatible amplifier (BrainAmp MR, Brain Products) at 5Hz sampling rate.
___________________________________PREPROCESSING
fMRI and EEG data were preprocessed with standard preprocessing steps as explained in detail elsewhere (Wirsich et al., 2020). In brief, fMRI underwent standard slice-time correction, spatial realignment (SPM12, http://www.fil.ion.ucl.ac.uk/spm/software/spm12). Structural T1-weighted images were processed using Freesurfer (recon-all, v6.0.0, https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/) in order to perform non-uniformity and intensity correction, skull stripping and gray/white matter segmentation. The cortex was parcellated into 68 regions of the Desikan-Kiliany atlas (Desikan et al., 2006). This atlas was chosen because —as an anatomical parcellation— avoids biases towards one or the other functional data modality. The T1 images of each subject and the Desikan-Killiany were co-registered to the fMRI images (FSL-FLIRT 6.0.2, https://fsl.fmrib.ox.ac.uk/fsl/fslwiki). We extracted signals of no interest such as the average signals of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and white matter from manually defined regions of interest (ROI, 5 mm sphere, Marsbar Toolbox 0.44, http://marsbar.sourceforge.net) and regressed out of the BOLD timeseries along with 6 rotation, translation motion parameters and global gray matter signal (Wirsich et al., 2017a). Then we bandpass-filtered the timeseries at 0.009–0.08 Hz. Average timeseries of each region was then used to calculate connectivity.
EEG underwent gradient and cardio-ballistic artifact removal using Brain Vision Analyzer software (Allen et al., 1998, 2000) and was down-sampled to 250 Hz. EEG was projected into source space using the Tikhonov-regularized minimum norm in Brainstorm software (Baillet et al., 2001; Tadel et al., 2011). Source activity was then averaged to the 68 regions of the Desikan-Killiany atlas. Band-limited EEG signals in each canonical frequency band and every atlas region were then used to calculate frequency-specific connectome dynamics. Note that the MEG-ROI-nets toolbox in the OHBA Software Library (OSL; https://ohba-analysis.github.io/osl-docs/) was used to minimize source leakage in the band-limited source-localized EEG data (Colclough et al., 2015).
___________________________________FOLDER STRUCTURE
The dataset includes five separate folders as described below:
1) EEGfMRI_dFC folder: connectome dynamics of scalp data
This folder contains 26 single MATLAB (.mat) files for each subject. Inside each `.mat` is a structure with fields `A`, `B`, and `C`, corresponding to fMRI, amplitude-coupling, and phase-coupling connectome dynamics, respectively. The fMRI data are 3-dimensional (ROI × ROI × timepoints). The EEG data are stored in a 1×5 cell array (Delta, Theta, Alpha, Beta, Gamma), each cell containing a 3-D ROI × ROI × timepoints matrix.
2) EEGfMRI_dFC_SourceOrtho foldeR: connectome dynamics of source-orthogonalized scalp data
Same format as above, except that EEG connectome dynamics are derived from source-orthogonalized signals. The MEG-ROI-nets toolbox in the OHBA Software Library (OSL; https://ohba-analysis.github.io/osl-docs/) was used to minimize source leakage in the band-limited, source-localized EEG data (Colclough et al., 2015).
3-5) Cross-modal Recurrence Plot (CRP) data
Each subject has an Excel file with five sheets (Delta through Gamma), corresponding to the five frequency bands. Each sheet contains a 2-D CRP matrix (rows = fMRI timepoints, columns = band-limited EEG timepoints).
- Scalp EEG–fMRI CRPs (CRP_EEGfMRI and CRP_EEGfMRI_SourceOrtho folder): two versions (with and without source-orthogonalization), each has 52 Excel files, including amplitude- and phase-coupling CRPs.
- Intracranial EEG–fMRI CRPs (CRP_iEEGfMRI folder): one version, 27 Excel files, containing three cases: amplitude coupling, HRF-convolved amplitude coupling, and phase coupling.

This repository provides the data and code used to reproduce key plots from the manuscript and to extend discussions that were only briefly covered therein. All MATLAB scripts were developed and tested in MATLAB R2024a. All Python scripts were developed and tested in Python 3.11.2.
* <b> NOTE:</b> New in this V3:
1. 2 new MATLAB files (ChiralPointGroups.m and THz_current_estimation.m), ChiralPointGroups.pdf (a compiled version of ChiralPointGroups.m) and theoretical model code (theoretical_model.zip) are added. More information can be found in the readme.
2. Updated and renamed "publication_data.zip" (in V2) to "data_and_analysis.zip"
3. Change License from CC BY to "Other license". Licensing Terms: Data (all .mat files) is under CC BY and Code is released under MIT license. Therefore, V3 is bound to this new license. V2 is still under CC BY.
<b>→ Data and analysis code (data_and_analysis.zip):</b>
The dataset is organized into five subfolders. Each subfolder corresponds to a unique combination of experimental conditions, including:
• Magnetic field orientation (B ∥ c or B ⟂ c)
• Scan parameter (magnetic field or temperature)
• Pump laser polarization (linear s, linear p, or circular)
• Detection polarization (linear s)
Each folder contains:
• The raw time-domain data files (.mat)
• Oscillator parameters extracted via linear prediction algorithm (.mat)
• MATLAB scripts (.m) that generate plots of the raw data, processed fits, and amplified modes. Each script should be run within its corresponding folder to ensure proper loading of the associated data files.
Folder summary:
1. B_parallel_c_linear_spump_sprobe_field: B ∥ c, s-polarized pump, s-polarized THz detection, magnetic field dependence
2. B_parallel_c_linear_spump_sprobe_temperature: B ∥ c, s-polarized pump, s-polarized THz detection, temperature dependence
3. B_perp_c_linear_spump_sprobe_field: B ⟂ c, s-polarized pump, s-polarized THz detection, magnetic field dependence
4. B_perp_c_linear_spump_sprobe_temperature: B ⟂ c, s-polarized pump, s-polarized THz detection, temperature dependence
5. B_parallel_c_LCPRCP_pump_sprobe_field: B ∥ c, circularly polarized pump (LCP & RCP), s-polarized THz detection, magnetic field dependence
<b>→Theoretical model code (theoretical_model.zip):</b>
The Python script depends on packages “numpy” and “matplotlib”. The script generates a plot of the dispersion relations of the theoretical model introduced in the Main Text. More precisely, it plots the real (red) and imaginary (blue) parts of the frequency (ω) as a function of wavenumber (k) as obtained by solving the characteristic equation, equation (6) of the Supplemental Information, with σ_E and σ_Μ given respectively by equations (3) and (2) of the Main Text. All branches of the dispersion relations are plotted simultaneously. All model parameters are adjustable.
The included Mathematica notebook (printout also provided in .pdf format) was used to obtain symbolic expressions for the coefficients of powers of ω appearing in the characteristic determinant. These coefficients were copied directly into the Python function detCoeffs().
<b>→ Standalone scripts (not in subfolders):</b>
• ChiralPointGroups.m
Outputs a table summarizing the 2D matrix representation of σ_Μ in the 11 enantiomorphic point groups. ChiralPointGroups.pdf is a compiled version of chiral point groups table, identical to the output of ChiralPointGroups.m.
• THz_current_estimation.m
Estimates the photoinduced THz current in tellurium under magnetic field. The script evaluates a phenomenological resonant contribution to the magnetoelectric coupling (with negligible dependence on NIR polarization), leading to excitation of s-polarized, B-antisymmetric mode S_odd at ~0.37 THz.
These standalone scripts provide additional physical discussion and calculation detail that are intentionally streamlined or omitted from the published manuscript and its supplementary materials for clarity and space.

This data and code accompany the manuscript "Small population size and possible extirpation of the threatened Malagasy poison frog Mantella cowanii". The data were collected using photograph capture-recapture at three sites in the central highlands of Madagascar. In Part 1, the script implements robust design capture-mark-recapture models in program MARK through the RMark interface to estimate population sizes and annual survival probabilities. In Part 2, it estimates the number of surveys needed to infer absence at sites where we did not detect the frog.

A novel process applying high solids loading in chemical-free pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis was developed to produce sugars from bioenergy sorghum. Hydrothermal pretreatment with 50% solids loading was performed in a pilot scale continuous reactor followed by disc refining. Sugars were extracted from the enzymatic hydrolysis at 10% to 50% solids content using fed-batch operations. Three surfactants (Tween 80, PEG 4000, and PEG 6000) were evaluated to increase sugar yields. Hydrolysis using 2% PEG 4000 had the highest sugar yields. Glucose concentrations of 105, 130, and 147 g/L were obtained from the reaction at 30%, 40%, and 50% solids content, respectively. The maximum sugar concentration of the hydrolysate, including glucose and xylose, obtained was 232 g/L. Additionally, the glucose recovery (73.14%) was increased compared to that of the batch reaction (52.74%) by using two-stage enzymatic hydrolysis combined with fed-batch operation at 50% w/v solids content.

This dataset includes a total of 16 images of 2 extant species of Podocarpus (Podocarpaceae) and 23 images of fossil specimens of the morphogenus Podocarpidites.
The images were taken using a Zeiss LSM 880 microscope with Airyscan confocal superresolution at 630x magnification (63x/NA 1.4 oil DIC). The images are in the original CZI file format. They can be opened using Zeiss propriety software (Zen, Zen lite) or open microscopy software, such as ImageJ. More information on how to open CZI files can be found here: [https://www.zeiss.com/microscopy/us/products/software/zeiss-zen/czi-image-file-format.html]
For Podocarpus (modern specimens):
Each folder is labelled by genus and contain all images corresponding to that genus. Detailed information about the folders, files, and specimens can be found in the Excel file "METADATA_Podocarpus_extant.csv". This file includes metadata on: species, slide ID, collection, folder name file name and notes.
Images are of pollen grains from slides in the Florida Museum of Natural History collections.
For Podocarpidites (fossil specimens):
Each image is named after the sample from which it was derived. Detailed information about the specimens can be found in the Excel file "METADATA_ Podocarpidites_fossil.csv". This file includes metadata: the fossil type (Taxon), the slide and sample name (Slide Info), the location of the sample locality (Country, Latitude, Longitude), the age of the sample (Min age, Max age), the location of the specimen on the sample slide (England Finder coordinates), and the image file name.

The included files are the alignments of DNA or amino acid sequences used for phylogenetic analyses of Auchenorrhyncha (Insecta: Hemiptera) in the manuscript by Bin et al. submitted to the journal “Systematic Entomology.” The files are plain text in either FASTA (.fa or .fas suffix) or PHYLIP (.phy suffix) format. Matrix0 is the set of all loci after multiple sequence alignment and trimming (hereafter called). Matrix1 consists of loci having 75% average bootstrap support and 80% taxon completeness (hereafter called Matrix1). Matrix2 consists of loci having 75% average bootstrap support and 95% completeness. Matrix2_nt12 is the same as Matrix2 but with third codon positions excluded. More details on how the datasets were compiled is provided in the Methods section of the manuscript file, also included as a PDF. Supplemental figures for the submitted manuscript are also provided as a PDF for additional information.

This dataset was developed to create a census of sufficiently documented molecular biology databases to answer several preliminary research questions. Articles published in the annual Nucleic Acids Research (NAR) “Database Issues” were used to identify a population of databases for study. Namely, the questions addressed herein include: 1) what is the historical rate of database proliferation versus rate of database attrition?, 2) to what extent do citations indicate persistence?, and 3) are databases under active maintenance and does evidence of maintenance likewise correlate to citation? An overarching goal of this study is to provide the ability to identify subsets of databases for further analysis, both as presented within this study and through subsequent use of this openly released dataset.

This is the experimental data of isolated nanomagnet islands with or without the presence of large nanomagnet islands. The small islands are made of Permalloy materials with size of 170 nm by 470 nm by 2.5 nm. The systems are measured at a temperature where the small islands are fluctuating around room temperature. The data is recorded as photoemission electron microscopy intensity. More details about the data can be found in the note.txt and Spe_2016.xlsx file.
Note: The raw data folders are stored in five volumes during the compression. All five volumes are needed in order to recover the original folder.

To gather news articles from the web that discuss the Cochrane Review, we used Altmetric Explorer from Altmetric.com and retrieved articles on August 1, 2023. We selected all articles that were written in English, published in the United States, and had a publication date <b>prior to March 10, 2023</b> (according to the “Mention Date” on Altmetric.com). This date is significant as it is when Cochrane issued a statement about the "misleading interpretation" of the Cochrane Review.
The collection of news articles is presented in the Altmetric_data.csv file. The dataset contains the following data that we exported from Altmetric Explorer:
- Publication date of the news article
- Title of the news article
- Source/publication venue of the news article
- URL
- Country
We manually checked and added the following information:
- Whether the article still exists
- Whether the article is accessible
- Whether the article is from the original source
We assigned MAXQDA IDs to the news articles. News articles were assigned the same ID when they were (a) identical or (b) in the case of Article 207, closely paraphrased, paragraph by paragraph. Inaccessible items were assigned a MAXQDA ID based on their "Mention Title".
For each article from Altmetric.com, we first tried to use the Web Collector for MAXQDA to download the article from the website and imported it into MAXQDA (version 22.7.0). If an article could not be retrieved using the Web Collector, we either downloaded the .html file or in the case of Article 128, retrieved it from the NewsBank database through the University of Illinois Library.
We then manually extracted direct quotations from the articles using MAXQDA.
We included surrounding words and sentences, and in one case, a news agency’s commentary, around direct quotations for context where needed. The quotations (with context) are the positions in our analysis.
We also identified who was quoted. We excluded quotations when we could not identify who or what was being quoted. We annotated quotations with codes representing groups (government agencies, other organizations, and research publications) and individuals (authors of the Cochrane Review, government agency representatives, journalists, and other experts such as epidemiologists).
The MAXQDA_data.csv file contains excerpts from the news articles that contain the direct quotations we identified. For each excerpt, we included the following information:
- MAXQDA ID of the document from which the excerpt originates;
- The collection date and source of the document;
- The code with which the excerpt is annotated;
- The code category;
- The excerpt itself.
