To Seal or Not To Seal: Study of Splashes

10.4231/JQ7R-YS20

Javad Eshraghi, Pavlos Vlachos, Sunny Jung

02/17/2021

The data provided in this publication was used to deliver the first detailed mechanical analysis of splash curtain, providing a physical understanding on why the splash curtain sometimes seals, and other times it does not. When an object impacts the fr...

Who thinks removing Confederate icons violates free speech?

10.4231/8PGW-MH24

Logan R Strother, Nathan Carrington

07/21/2021

The belief that removing Confederate icons from public spaces violates free expression rights occasionally makes its way into the national discourse. Because rights-based claims represent ostensibly race-neutral justification for supporting Confederate sym...

Dot tracking methodology for background-oriented schlieren (BOS)

10.4231/X101-WK63

Lalit Rajendran, Pavlos Vlachos, Sally P M Bane

05/18/2021

We propose a dot tracking methodology for processing background-oriented schlieren (BOS) images. The method improves the accuracy, precision and spatial resolution compared to conventional cross-correlation algorithms. Our methodology utilizes the prior in...

Geospatial Image Data for Sorghum Phenotyping

Data for: Timing and order of exposure to two echinostome species affect patterns of infection in larval amphibians

10.4231/1YRJ-HZ02

Jason T. Hoverman, Logan Scott Billet

01/06/2021

The study of priority effects with respect to coinfections is still in its infancy. Moreover, existing coinfection studies typically focus on infection outcomes associated with exposure to distinct sets of parasite species, despite that functionally and mo...

Precipitation and Temperature Data for Select 12 Stations in Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda (1979-2020)

07/31/2021

Surface and ground water availability in East Africa varies substantially with time and climate, and across subregions. Climate, land use, and land management changes are key factors affecting the integrity of water resources, yet related data are generall...

Metabolic Source Isotopic Pair Labeling and Genome-Wide Association Are Complementary Tools for the Identification of Metabolite-Gene Associations in Plants

10.4231/1702-6M85

Brian Dilkes, Clint C S Chapple, Cole Wunderlich, Jeffrey Simpson, Xu Li

03/08/2021

The optimal extraction of information from untargeted metabolomics analyses is a continuing challenge. Here we describe an approach that combines stable isotope labeling, LC-MS, and a computational pipeline to automatically identify metabolites produced fr...

Seasonal variation in abundance and diversity of eavesdropping frog‐biting midges (Diptera, Corethrellidae) in a neotropical rainforest

10.4231/E00F-VE65

Henry D Legett, Viktor Baranov, Ximena E Bernal

04/28/2021

In the tropics, precipitation patterns result in seasonal fluctuations in the abundance and distribution of plant and animal species. Tropical predators and parasites are therefore faced with seasonal changes in prey and host availability. This study inves...

Synchronized mating signals in a communication network: the challenge of avoiding predators while attracting mates

10.4231/SKRQ-CN44

Henry Legett, Rachel A Page, Ximena E Bernal

03/04/2021

Conspicuous mating signals attract mates but also expose signallers to predators and parasites. Signal evolution, therefore, is driven by conflicting selective pressures from multiple receivers, both target and non-target. Synchronization of mating signals...
