This dataset contains daily csv files summarizing data from 10-min wind statistics from Doppler lidar at the BARG site for the WFIP3 event log. See https://a2e.energy.gov/ds/wfip3/bloc.lidar.10min.z01.c1/summary

This dataset contains reviewed data from the profiling lidar (Windcube v2.1) deployed on WFIP3's NOAA SHIP. The reviewed files herein are based on the lidar's RTD files (i.e., the real-time raw data files at near 1 Hz resolution). The data have been corrected for the motion of the ship.
This dataset contains derived data from the profiling lidar (Windcube v2.1) deployed at WFIP3's NOAA SHIP site. The derived data files herein are based on the lidar's STA files (i.e., the 10-min average data files). The data have been corrected for the motion of the ship.
The 10-min wind statistics from ground-based Doppler lidar at site A1 were calculated using a modified version of the Sathe et al., 2015 paper in the references.
Wind profiles from ground-based Doppler lidar at site A1 were calculated for each 6-beam profiling scan (one point every ~20 s). The wind speed retrieval uses a modified version of the Sathe et al., 2015, paper in the references.
A vortex lattice code, CAMRAD II, and a Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stoke code, OVERFLOW-D2, were used to predict the aerodynamic performance of a two-bladed horizontal axis wind turbine. All computations were compared with experimental data that was collected at the NASA Ames Research Center 80- by 120-Foot Wind Tunnel. Computations were performed for both axial as well as yawed operating conditions. Various stall delay models and dynamics stall models were used by the CAMRAD II code. Comparisons between the experimental data and computed aerodynamic loads show that the OVERFLOW-D2 code can accurately predict the power and spanwise loading of a wind turbine rotor.
The purpose of this document is to create a single reference document representing abridged versions of the PATMOS-x Algorithm Theoretical Basis Documents (ATBDs) specifically relevant to GOES 16-18 processing. This document has been compiled from several documents: Cloud Mask ATBD, AWG Cloud Height Algorithm (ACHA) ATBD, Daytime Cloud Optical and Microphysical Properties (DCOMP) ATBD, and CLAVR-x User's Guide.
DOE’s PV Lifetime project was initiated in 2016 with the goal of accurately characterizing the early-life evolution of photovoltaic (PV) field performance. Different PV cell and module technologies result in different initial degradation rates due to effects like light-induced degradation (LID) and light & elevated temperature-induced degradation (LeTID). To accurately characterize the initial field degradation of maximum power (Pmp) requires the use of high-accuracy indoor IV curve measurements at standard test conditions. Therefore, PV modules involved in this study are removed from the field once or twice per year and brought indoors for measurement under constant temperature and irradiance conditions.
Accurate measurements of direct normal (beam) solar irradiance from pyrheliometers are important for developing and deploying solar energy conversion systems, for improving our understanding of Earth's energy budget for climate change studies, and for other science and technology applications involving solar flux. Providing these measurements places many demands on the quality system used by the operator of commercially available radiometers. Maintaining accurate radiometer calibrations that are traceable to an international standard is the first step in producing research-quality solar irradiance measurements.
Proposal Objectives: 1. Utilize depolymerization/fractionation techniques to recover highly processable and reactive feedstocks for polymer synthesis from lignin. 2. Synthesize lignin‐derived non‐isocyanate polyurethane, epoxy, and polyamide using non‐ toxic, biobased route designed for chemical recycling. Characterize resulting materials. 3. Design a high‐yielding chemical recycling process for as‐synthesized materials yielding usable building blocks for many generations of polymer synthesis. 4. Optimize chemical recycling of PET waste for the synthesis of lignin‐based polymers. Compare properties to commercial materials. 5. Optimize reaction conditions and recycling steps to facilitate enhanced sustainability of the synthetic steps and final properties of materials. 6. Complete a lifecycle assessment of lignin utilization and chemical recycling to compare their environmental performance to that of materials produced from virgin material. Identify hot spots and benefits using the chemical recycling process.
This is a planned lightning talk at the NLIT Summit 2025 conference. This would serve as somewhat of a progress update to the presentation I gave at re:Invent 2024 back in November which can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=2133&v=NMq3kL9qObU&feature=youtu.be (my section begins at the included timestamp value). This presentation discusses our usage of Cloud-hosted HPC systems, and in what circumstances they benefit our researchers strategically. We have been making incremental progress in this area since that recording, so for this presentation I would include our latest experiences and observations as we are beginning to implement a hybrid HPC solution. We're in the midst of a cross-team effort of implementing a prototype hybridization solution which would allow users to strategically burst jobs to the cloud. In this talk for NLIT, I would detail lessons-learned, non-starters, architecture diagrams, and other implementation details that may benefit those interested as we continue our experimentation. Our prototype may not be complete by the time of this presentation, but even in the discovery phase of our anticipated design we've discovered a lot of information from others who have worked on hybrid solutions that are worth sharing.
