Dataset for: Price Controls for Scarcity Events in Real-Time and Transactive Energy Systems

Real time pricing (RTP) is often promoted as a mechanism to improve the economic efficiency of the electricity system. However, many regulators have been hesitant to adopt RTP due to concerns about exposing customers to extreme price swings. To balance these concerns, this paper proposes a methodology for establishing price controls, based on the supply of demand-side flexibility in the system. As an illustrative example, we measure price responsiveness using an agent-based simulation model that is representative of the ERCOT market. The model is composed of a distribution feeder that has 250 customers with active agents controlling their HVAC systems in response to the historical ERCOT RTP with an artificially added high-price event. These agents are subjected to increasing electricity prices during the event, which we then use to create a supply curve for demand-side resources in our modeled scarcity event. We set potential price caps at points on the supply curve where customers’ have exhausted their flexible capacity. Using historical prices, we examine the systemic costs of these price caps, and present regulatory options for recouping them. Utilities and regulators interested in limiting consumer risk from dynamic pricing can utilize these methods to develop rate structures and encourage conservation. The attached data upload allows for the duplication or modification of the analysis performed in this study.

Dataset for "Enrichment of phosphates, lead, and mixed soil-organic particles in INPs at the Southern Great Plains site"

Ice nucleating particles (INPs) are rare particles that initiate primary ice formation, a critical step required for subsequent important cloud microphysical processes that ultimately govern cloud phase and cloud radiative properties. Laboratory studies have found that organic-rich dusts, such as those found in soils, are more efficient INPs compared to mineral dust. However, the atmospheric relevance of these organic-rich dusts are not well understood, particularly in regions with significant agricultural activity. The Agricultural Ice nuclei at the Southern Great Plains field campaign (AGINSGP) was conducted in rural Oklahoma to investigate how soil dusts contribute to INP populations in the Great Plains. We present chemical characterization of ambient and ice crystal residual particles from a single day of sampling using single particle mass spectrometry (SPMS) and scanning microscopy. Ambient particle concentrations were primarily carbonaceous or secondary aerosol, while dust particles were enhanced in the residual particles. Dust particles measured during residual sampling contained elevated signals for phosphate ($^{63}$PO$_2^-$ and $^{79}$PO$_3^-$) and lead ($^{208}$Pb$_2^+$). Nitrate was slightly depleted relative to ambient dust, and strong sulfate signals were not seen in the residual particles measured by the miniSPLAT. The residual and ambient particles measured by the miniSPLAT were approximately the same size, though this may be a reflection of the SPMS size-dependent transmission efficiency and not that of physical truth. This study shows that organic-rich soils may be important contributors to the ambient INP population in agricultural regions.

Dataset for the Danczak et al., 2025 manuscript about bacterial-fungal interactions

We generated genome-resolved multiomics data from a series of metagenomic and metatranscriptomic sequencing. Specifically, we acquired, functionally annotated, and taxonomically classified both bacterial and eukaryotic metagenome assembled genomes (MAGs). For bacterial MAGs, we assembled eukaryotic float metagenomic sequencing data from JGI using MEGAHIT, binned and refined MAGs using MetaWRAP and dRep, functionally annotated MAGs using eggNOG mapper, and assigned taxonomy using GTDB-tk. For eukaryotic MAGs, we first identified potentially eukaryotic contigs from a coassembly of eukaryotic float metagenomic sequencing data from JGI using EukRep and Whokaryote, binned MAGs using MetaBAT2, functionally annotated MAGs using eggNOG mapper, and assigned taxonomy using Eukulele. Bulk metatranscriptomic reads were mapped to bacterial MAGs and polyA-metatranscriptomic read were mapped to eukaryotic MAGs using bbmap.

DataSet for Elucidating molecular level interfacial interactions between a de novo protein and nucleated calcite with solid-state NMR

Biomineralization is the process by which organisms use biomolecules to produce hierarchically structured organic-inorganic composites. Using biology as inspiration, a protein construct (FD31) was previously designed to accelerate formation of nano-calcite with an unconventional {110} face. To understand the molecular interactions essential for protein aided calcite nucleation, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR) spectroscopy was used in this work to characterize the FD31-calcite interface at the atomic level. Glutamic acid side chains designed to interact directly with calcium ions on the surface were found to have dynamics on the sub-millisecond timescale, indicating possible interactions between the protein and surface waters that were not included in the original model. Dipolar ssNMR recoupling techniques also showed that the protein backbone is ~2 Å closer to the surface than in the original docking model. Refined molecular simulations were done in the presence of explicit waters, which resulted in the protein backbone closer to the surface than in the original docking structure, providing better agreement with experiment and highlighting the important role played by water in FD31-calcite interactions. These studies provide the first experimental evidence to confirm that FD31 interactions with calcite are localized to the surface of the protein designed to serve as a template. However, these studies do indicate a more dynamic binding and closer binding mode between FD31 and the nucleated surface than originally proposed. In all, this enhanced molecular insight into the FD31-calcite interface has advanced our fundamental understanding of the atomic interactions at the organic-inorganic interface and will aid in the design of biological templates for the nucleation of inorganic crystals.

Next-generation sequencing dataset of genome-scale CRISPRi in Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002 across seven conditions

A 33,298-member sgRNA library developed for Synechococus sp. PCC 7002 was screened with two replicates across seven growth conditions and sequenced with Illumina NextSeq (paired end, 2x150 bp) for a total of ~700M reads. The original plasmid library and the library after transformation into a dCas9-containing and dCas9-absent strain were also sequenced as a reference for initial sgRNA abundance.

Comparison of GOES16 Data with the TRACER-ESCAPE Field Campaign Dataset for Convection Characterization: A Selection of Case Studies and Lessons Learnt

Convective updrafts are one of the main characteristics of convective clouds, responsible for the convective mass flux and the redistribution of energy and condensate in the atmosphere. During the early stages of their lifecycle, convective clouds experience rapid cloud-top ascent manifested by a decrease in the geostationary IR brightness temperature (𝑇⁢𝐵 𝐼⁢𝑅 ). Under the assumption that the convective cloud top behaves like a black body, the ascent rate of the convective cloud top can be estimated as ($\frac{∂𝑇⁢𝐵_{𝐼⁢𝑅}}{∂𝑡}$), and it can be used to infer the near cloud-top convective updraft. The temporal resolution of the geostationary IR measurements and non-uniform beam-filling effects can influence the convective updraft estimation. However, the main shortcoming until today was the lack of independent verification of the strength of the convective updraft. Here, Doppler radar observations from the ESCAPE and TRACER field experiments provide independent estimates of the convective updraft velocity at higher spatiotemporal resolution throughout the convective core column and can be used to evaluate the updraft velocity estimates from the IR cooling rate for limited samples. Isolated convective cells were tracked with dedicated radar (RHIs and PPIs) scans throughout their lifecycle. Radial Doppler velocity measurements near the convective cloud top are used to provide estimates of convective updrafts. These data are compared with the geostationary IR and VIS channels (from the GOES satellite) to characterize the convection evolution and lifecycle based on cloud-top cooling rates.

Atom probe datasets from neutron irradiated Fe-Cr alloys

A series of model Fe–Cr alloys containing 3–18 at.% Cr was neutron irradiated at a nominal temperature of 563 K to 1.82 dpa. Solute distributions were analyzed by atom probe tomography, which revealed α′ precipitation for alloys containing more than 9 at.% Cr. Both the Cr concentration dependence of α′ precipitation and the measured matrix compositions are in agreement with the recently published Fe–Cr phase diagrams. An irradiation-accelerated precipitation process is strongly suggested. Irradiation was carried out in the Advance Test Reactor (ATR) at Idaho National Laboratory. A series of six Fe–Cr alloys of nominal compositions 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18 at.% Cr was irradiated at a neutron fluence (E > 1 MeV) of 1.1 × 1021 n cm−2 at 563 ± 15 K and to a damage level of 1.82 displacements per atom (dpa). Nominal neutron flux and dpa rate are 2.3 × 1014 n cm−2 s−1 and 3.4 × 10−7 dpa s−1, respectively. The microstructures of the Fe–Cr alloys were studied by atom probe tomography (APT) using a Cameca 4000X HR instrument. APT specimens were prepared by a standard lift-out process using a Quanta 3D 200i dual beam scanning electron microscope ensuring that the analyses were performed away from grain boundaries.
