Comparison of Infiltration Test Methods for Soil Health Assessment

Infiltration rate (IR) has been commonly used as a metric to evaluate soil quality and health. For the USDA Soil Quality Test Kit, a 15-cm (6-in) diameter (ID) cylinder is used to measure IR with 444 cm 3 (equivalent to 2.54 cm or 1 in) of water while other standard IR procedures require substantially larger volumes of water. The general objective of this study was to compare different methods for IR measurement. Using three replications, IR measurements were conducted along a 9-m (27-ft) long transect in two different soil types by the double-ring infiltrometer (DRI) using 25- and 50-cm (10-and 20-in, respectively) cylinders, single-ring infiltrometer (SRI) using 25- and 50-cm cylinders, Cornell sprinkle infiltrometer (CSI) using a 24.1-cm (9.5-in) cylinder, the USDA recommended procedure using a 15-cm diameter cylinder (hereafter referred to as USDA-15 method), and a modified USDA method using a 24.1-cm diameter cylinder. Although the USDA-15 method is simple and requires a small amount of water, based on high variability among replications and significant reduction in IR during early stages of water entry into the soil, the procedure does not offer an accurate estimate of the soil infiltration potential. The CSI procedure was reproducible, but it is more cumbersome to perform than other methods. The DRI, SRI, and CSI methods required a much greater volume of water than the USDA-15 method but produced results that are more consistent. The most consistent results were obtained by the CSI and DRI methods. The modified USDA method results were similar to the SRI method and were an improvement over the original USDA-15 method. For assessing soil health, additional investigations should be conducted to evaluate a modified version of the USDA procedure using a larger cylinder.

Litter Production of Oak-Hickory Forest at Missouri Ozark (MOFLUX) Site: 2003-2022

This dataset contains measurements of litter production at the second-growth upland oak-hickory forest at the Missouri Ozark AmeriFlux (MOFLUX) site. The MOFLUX site is located in the University of Missouri Baskett Forest situated in the Ozark Border Region of central Missouri, USA, and is part of the AmeriFlux network (site ID: US-MOz). During 2003, 24 circular vegetation plots (each 0.08 hectares) were established in the MOFLUX forest. The plots were situated 50 meters apart on 5 linear transects radiating out from the flux tower base in southeast, south, southwest, west, and northwest directions—there were 5 plots per transect except for the northwest one, which had only 4 due to the presence of a small pond at the terminus (Fig. 1). Litter measurements were initiated in October 2003 and continue to the present. Data through 2022 are reported in this dataset. On each plot, two subplots were established for the collection of litter. Subplots were setup using a stratified random design to ensure the collectors were not immediately adjacent to one another. Litter collectors were usually emptied at monthly intervals, or less during the autumn leaf drop. Samples were dried to constant mass and then sorted before determining the dry mass of leaf, vegetative and woody litter. These litter data have been valuable in modeling efforts to examine the impacts of intensifying moisture extremes (i.e., moisture excess and deficit conditions) on soil carbon cycling. More recent data will be added periodically with no changes to previously released data or the format and structure of the data file. This dataset contains one data file in comma separate (.csv) format. Additional metadata are provided: one data dictionary and a file-level metadata file in comma separate (.csv) format and a user guide in PDF (*.pdf) format.

Leaf-area index of Oak-Hickory Forest at Missouri Ozark (MOFLUX) site: 2007–2022

This data set contains measurements of leaf-area index (LAI) at the Missouri Ozark (MOFLUX) site during growing seasons from 2007-2022. The MOFLUX site is located in the University of Missouri Baskett Forest, a second growth oak-hickory forest situated in the Ozark Border Region of central Missouri, USA. MOFLUX is part of the AmeriFlux network (site ID: US-MOz) and an eddy covariance tower marks the middle of the site (Figure 1). During 2003, 24 circular vegetation plots (each 0.08 hectares) were established within a ~250 meter (m) radius around the tower. The plots were situated 50 m apart along 5 linear transects radiating out from the flux tower base in southeast, south, southwest, west, and northwest directions. There were 5 plots per transect except for the northwest one, which had only 4 due to the presence of a small pond at the terminus. At weekly intervals during the growing season, leaf-area index measurements were taken within each vegetation plot on the 5 transects running from the central flux tower. A plant canopy analyzer (model LAI-2000 Li-Cor Inc., Lincoln NE) was used to make the LAI measurements. We collected samples to enable measurement of the mean LAI of each transect. LAI observations are useful for understanding vegetation phenology, and to aid in the interpretation of ecosystem gas exchange. This dataset contains one data file in comma separate (.csv) format. Additional metadata are provided: one data dictionary and a file-level metadata file in comma separate (.csv) format and a user guide in PDF (*.pdf) format.

Structural Insights into the Dynamics of Water in SOD1 Catalysis and Drug Interactions

Superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) is a crucial enzyme that protects cells from oxidative damage by converting superoxide radicals into H 2 O 2 and O 2 . This detoxification process, essential for cellular homeostasis, relies on a precisely orchestrated catalytic mechanism involving the copper cation, while the zinc cation contributes to the structural integrity of the enzyme. This study presents the 2.3 Å crystal structure of human SOD1 (PDB ID: 9IYK), revealing an assembly of six homodimers and twelve distinct active sites. The water molecules form a complex hydrogen-bonding network that drives proton transfer and sustains active site dynamics. Our structure also uncovers subtle conformational changes that highlight the intrinsic flexibility of SOD1, which is essential for its function. Additionally, we observe how these dynamic structural features may be linked to pathological mutations associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). By advancing our understanding of hSOD1’s mechanistic intricacies and the influence of water coordination, this study offers valuable insights for developing therapeutic strategies targeting ALS. Our structure’s unique conformations and active site interactions illuminate new facets of hSOD1 function, underscoring the critical role of structural dynamics in enzyme catalysis. Moreover, we conducted a molecular docking analysis using SOD1 for potential radical scavengers and Abelson non-receptor tyrosine kinase (c-Abl, Abl1) inhibitors targeting misfolded SOD1 aggregation along with oxidative stress and apoptosis, respectively. The results showed that CHEMBL1075867, a free radical scavenger derivative, showed the most promising docking results and interactions at the binding site of hSOD1, highlighting its promising role for further studies against SOD1-mediated ALS.

Modeling Data Flows with Network Calculus in Cyber-Physical Systems: Enabling Feature Analysis for Anomaly Detection Applications

The electric grid is becoming increasingly cyber-physical with the addition of smart technologies, new communication interfaces, and automated grid-support functions. Because of this, it is no longer sufficient to only study the physical system dynamics, but the cyber system must also be monitored as well to examine cyber-physical interactions and effects on the overall system. To address this gap for both operational and security needs, cyber-physical situational awareness is needed to monitor the system to detect any faults or malicious activity. Techniques and models to understand the physical system (the power system operation) exist, but methods to study the cyber system are needed, which can assist in understanding how the network traffic and changes to network conditions affect applications such as data analysis, intrusion detection systems (IDS), and anomaly detection. In this paper, we examine and develop models of data flows in communication networks of cyber-physical systems (CPSs) and explore how network calculus can be utilized to develop those models for CPSs, with a focus on anomaly and intrusion detection. This provides a foundation for methods to examine how changes to behavior in the CPS can be modeled and for investigating cyber effects in CPSs in anomaly detection applications.

High-Pressure Sound Velocity Measurements of Liquids Using In Situ Ultrasonic Techniques in a Multianvil Apparatus

Sound velocity and equation of state of liquids provide important constraints on the generation, presence, and transport of silicate and metallic melts in the Earth’s interior. Unlike their solid counterparts, these properties of liquids pose great technical challenges to high-pressure measurements and are poorly constrained. Here we present the technical developments that have been made at the GSECARS beamline 13-ID-D of the Advanced Photon Source for the past several years for determination of sound velocity of liquids using the ultrasonic techniques in a 1000-ton Kawai-type multianvil apparatus. Temperature of the sound velocity measurements has been extended to ~2400 K at 4 GPa and ~2000 K at 8 GPa to enable studies of liquids with very high melting temperatures, such as the silicate liquids.

Inter-Domain Fusion for Enhanced Intrusion Detection in Power Systems: An Evidence Theoretic and Meta-Heuristic Approach

False alerts due to misconfigured or compromised intrusion detection systems (IDS) in industrial control system (ICS) networks can lead to severe economic and operational damage. However, research using deep learning to reduce false alerts often requires the physical and cyber sensor data to be trustworthy. Implicit trust is a major problem for artificial intelligence or machine learning (AI/ML) in cyber-physical system (CPS) security, because when these solutions are most urgently needed is also when they are most at risk (e.g., during an attack). To address this, the Inter-Domain Evidence theoretic Approach for Inference (IDEA-I) is proposed that reframes the detection problem as how to make good decisions given uncertainty. Specifically, an evidence theoretic approach leveraging Dempster–Shafer (DS) combination rules and their variants is proposed for reducing false alerts. A multi-hypothesis mass function model is designed that leverages probability scores obtained from supervised-learning classifiers. Using this model, a location-cum-domain-based fusion framework is proposed to evaluate the detector’s performance using disjunctive, conjunctive, and cautious conjunctive rules. The approach is demonstrated in a cyber-physical power system testbed, and the classifiers are trained with datasets from Man-In-The-Middle attack emulation in a large-scale synthetic electric grid. For evaluating the performance, we consider plausibility, belief, pignistic, and general Bayesian theorem-based metrics as decision functions. To improve the performance, a multi-objective-based genetic algorithm is proposed for feature selection considering the decision metrics as the fitness function. Finally, we present a software application to evaluate the DS fusion approaches with different parameters and architectures.

Policy-Driven Sustainable Saline Drainage Disposal and Forage Production in the Western San Joaquin Valley of California

Environmental policies to address water quality impairments in the San Joaquin River of California have focused on the reduction of salinity and selenium-contaminated subsurface agricultural drainage loads from westside sources. On 31 December 2019, all of the agricultural drainage from a 44,000 ha subarea on the western side of the San Joaquin River basin was curtailed. This policy requires the on-site disposal of all of the agricultural drainage water in perpetuity, except during flooding events, when emergency drainage to the River is sanctioned. The reuse of this saline agricultural drainage water to irrigate forage crops, such as ‘Jose’ tall wheatgrass and alfalfa, in a 2428 ha reuse facility provides an economic return on this pollutant disposal option. Irrigation with brackish water requires careful management to prevent salt accumulation in the crop root zone, which can impact forage yields. The objective of this study was to optimize the sustainability of this reuse facility by maximizing the evaporation potential while achieving cost recovery. This was achieved by assessing the spatial and temporal distribution of the root zone salinity in selected fields of ‘Jose’ tall wheatgrass and alfalfa in the drainage reuse facility, some of which have been irrigated with brackish subsurface drainage water for over fifteen years. Electromagnetic soil surveys using an EM-38 instrument were used to measure the spatial variability of the salinity in the soil profile. The tall wheatgrass fields were irrigated with higher salinity water (1.2–9.3 dS m -1 ) compared to the fields of alfalfa (0.5–6.5 dS m -1 ). Correspondingly, the soil salinity in the tall wheatgrass fields was higher (12.5 dS m -1 –19.3 dS m -1 ) compared to the alfalfa fields (8.97 dS mm -1 –14.4 dS mm -1 ) for the years 2016 and 2017. Better leaching of salts was observed in the fields with a subsurface drainage system installed (13–1 and 13–2). The depth-averaged root zone salinity data sets are being used for the calibration of the transient hydro-salinity computer model CSUID-ID (a one-dimensional version of the Colorado State University Irrigation Drainage Model). This user-friendly decision support tool currently provides a useful framework for the data collection needed to make credible, field-scale salinity budgets. In time, it will provide guidance for appropriate leaching requirements and potential blending decisions for sustainable forage production. This paper shows the tie between environmental drainage policy and the role of local governance in the development of sustainable irrigation practices, and how well-directed collaborative field research can guide future resource management.
