Datasets

Objectives: This study follows-up on previous work that began examining data deposited in an institutional repository. The work here extends the earlier study by answering the following lines of research questions: (1) what is the file composition of datasets ingested into the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign campus repository? Are datasets more likely to be single file or multiple file items? (2) what is the usage data associated with these datasets? Which items are most popular? Methods: The dataset records collected in this study were identified by filtering item types categorized as "data" or "dataset" using the advanced search function in IDEALS. Returned search results were collected in an Excel spreadsheet to include data such as the Handle identifier, date ingested, file formats, composition code, and the download count from the item's statistics report. The Handle identifier represents the dataset record's persistent identifier. Composition represents codes that categorize items as single or multiple file deposits. Date available represents the date the dataset record was published in the campus repository. Download statistics were collected via a website link for each dataset record and indicates the number of times the dataset record has been downloaded. Once the data was collected, it was used to evaluate datasets deposited into IDEALS. Results: A total of 522 datasets were identified for analysis covering the period between January 2007 and August 2016. This study revealed two influxes occurring during the period of 2008-2009 and in 2014. During the first time frame a large number of PDFs were deposited by the Illinois Department of Agriculture. Whereas, Microsoft Excel files were deposited in 2014 by the Rare Books and Manuscript Library. Single file datasets clearly dominate the deposits in the campus repository. The total download count for all datasets was 139,663 and the average downloads per month per file across all datasets averaged 3.2. Conclusion: Academic librarians, repository managers, and research data services staff can use the results presented here to anticipate the nature of research data that may be deposited within institutional repositories. With increased awareness, content recruitment, and improvements, IRs can provide a viable cyberinfrastructure for researchers to deposit data, but much can be learned from the data already deposited. Awareness of trends can help librarians facilitate discussions with researchers about research data deposits as well as better tailor their services to address short-term and long-term research needs.

The dataset contains processed model fields used to generate data, figures and tables in the Journal of Geophysical Research article "Investigating the linear dependence of direct and indirect radiative forcing on emission of carbonaceous aerosols in a global climate model." The processed data are monthly averaged cloud properties (CCN, CDNC and LWP) and forcing variables (DRF and IRF) at original CAM5 spatial resolution (1.9° by 2.5°). Raw model output fields from CAM5 simulations are available through NERSC upon request. Please find more detailed information in the ReadMe file.

Table S1. Pollen types identified in the BCI and PNSL pollen rain data sets. Pollen types were identified to species when possible and assigned a life form based on descriptions provided in Croat, T.B. (1978). Taxa from BCI and PNSL were assigned a 1 if present in forest census data or a 0 if absent. The relative representation of each taxon has been provided for each extended record and by dry and wet season representation respectively. CA loadings are provided for axes 1 and 2 (Fig. 1).

This dataset contains hourly traffic estimates (speeds) for individual links of the New York City road network for the years 2010-2013, estimated from New York City Taxis.

The International Registry of Reproductive Pathology Database is part of pioneering work done by Dr. Kenneth McEntee to comprehensively document thousands of disease cases studies. His large and comprehensive collection of case reports and physical samples was complimented by development of the International Registry of Reproductive Pathology Database in the 1980s. The original FoxPro Database files and a migrated access version were completed by the College of Veterinary Medicine in 2016. Access CSV files were completed by the University of Illinois Library in 2017.

This dataset contains the PartMC-MOSAIC simulations used in the article “Plume-exit modeling to determine cloud condensation nuclei activity of aerosols from residential biofuel combustion”. The data is organized as a set of folders, each folder representing a different scenario modeled. Each folder contains a series of NetCDF files, which are the output of the PartMC-MOSAIC simulation. They contain information on particle and gas properties, both of the biofuel burning plume and background. Input files for PartMC-MOSAIC are also included. This dataset was used during the open review process at Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics (ACP) and supports both the discussion paper and final article.

This dataset was taken continuously as a single trip, no stop was made for gas along the way making this a very long continuous dataset. It starts in the parking lot of the Indianapolis International Airport and continues directly towards a gas station on Lincoln Avenue in Urbana, IL. There are a couple parts of the trip where the phones orientation had to be changed because my navigation cut out. These times are easy to account for based on Orientation X/Y/Z change. I would also advise cutting out the first couple hundred points or the points leading up to highway speed. The phone was mounted in the cupholder in the front seat of the car.

This data was collected between 2004 and 2010 at White River National Wildlife Refuge (WRNWR) and Saint Francis National Forest (SF). It was collected as part of two master’s and one PhD project at Arkansas State University USA studying Swainson’s Warbler habitat use, survival, and body condition.

This dataset was taken continuously but had multiple stops to refuel (without the data recording ceasing). This can be removed by parsing out all data that has a speed of 0. The mount for this dataset was fairly stable (as can be seen by the consistent orientation angle throughout the dataset). It was mounted tightly between two seats in the back of the vehicle. Unfortunately, the frequency for this dataset was set fairly low at one per ten seconds.
