Groundwater and Surface Water Flow (GSFLOW) model files to explore bedrock circulation depth and porosity in Copper Creek, Colorado

This data package contains integrated hydrological model input and output files for Copper Creek, Colorado (24 km2), a tributary of the East River located in the headwaters of the Upper Colorado River Basin. The model code is the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Groundwater and Surface Water Flow (GSFLOW) model. The model contains a 100-m grid resolution and a daily timestep. The land surface model is dynamically linked to a three-dimensional groundwater flow model that allows for streamflow gaining and losing conditions. The groundwater model contains 12 model layers and extends 400 m below land surface. The original Copper Creek model was modified to contain geologic layers representing saprolite, shallow bedrock, and deep bedrock. Endmember depth versus hydraulic conductivity relationships and porosity values for fractured crystalline rock are simulated. For the shallow case, median flow depths occur in the shallow saprolite at depths <8 m, while the deep case promotes a median groundwater flow depth of 100 m. With this modeling framework we compare streamflow response to a plausible worst-case drought lasting up to five years. Streamflow metrics of analysis include average streamflow, fraction of stream network that is dry, no-flow duration, average groundwater flow to streams and time to recovery following the drought. Results and implications are presented in a paper submitted to Geophysical Research Letters titled, "The role of bedrock circulation depth and porosity in mountain streamflow response to prolonged drought" by Rosemary WH. Carroll, Andrew H. Manning and Kenneth H Williams. A Readme.txt file provides instructions on how to download all model files and execute each model scenario. In addition to the GSFLOW output/prms/copper_drought.csv file containing daily basin water stores and fluxes (refer to GSFLOW manual) and the output/prms/copper_drought_statvar.dat file with output defined in the gsflow3.control file (refer to GSFLOW Manual), output files also include spatially distributed daily values of total evapotranspiration, canopy evaporation, precipitation, snowfall, infiltration, snow water equivalent, potential evapotranspiration, recharge, sublimation, soil moisture, contributing interflow, water table elevations, changes in groundwater storage, groundwater evapotranspiration, interbasin groundwater flow (limited to the alluvium below the stream outlet), and surface-groundwater exchanges within the river system.

Disorder-induced magnetoelastic behaviors of MnTexSbyBi1-x-y alloys

This dataset contains input and output files from density functional theory (DFT) simulations used to study the disorder-induced magnetoelastic behaviors of MnTexSbyBi1-x-y (0 ≤ x + y ≤ 1) alloys and their binary end members MnTe, MnSb, and MnBi. The alloys adopt the hexagonal NiAs-type (nickeline) structure and span ternary (MnTexSb1-x, MnTexBi1-x, MnBixSb1-x), and quaternary compositions across the full MnTe–MnSb–MnBi composition triangle. For each alloy composition, the dataset provides DFT calculations in three magnetic configurations: A-type antiferromagnetic (AFM), C-type AFM, and ferromagnetic (FM). Every magnetic configuration folder contains the fully relaxed crystal structure (CONTCAR), VASP input parameters (INCAR), and the main VASP output file (OUTCAR), from which total electronic energies, Mn magnetic moments, lattice parameters, and percent volume changes between magnetic states are extracted. These data are used to construct compositional phase diagrams, evaluate thermodynamic stability (formability), and map magnetoelastic responses across the alloy space. For A-type AFM and FM configurations, additional data are provided as follows: (i) FORCE_CONSTANTS and thermal_properties.yaml files at the top level of A-type_AFM/ and FM/ folders — present only for compositions marked with an asterisk (*) in Table I of the main text. These are derived from Phonopy finite-displacement calculations on full disordered 128-atom supercells and provide vibrational free energy, entropy (Svib)contribution from explicit disorder calculations. (Table I of the associated main manuscript) (ii) A VCA/ subfolder within A-type_AFM/ and FM/, containing FORCE_CONSTANTS and thermal_properties.yaml from Virtual Crystal Approximation phonon calculations (without spin-orbit coupling). VCA data are available for all compositions and are used to estimate vibrational contributions to the Gibbs free energy across the full composition space. (iii) A SOC/ subfolder containing CONTCAR, INCAR, and OUTCAR from spin-orbit coupling calculations, providing relativistic corrections to electronic energies and lattice parameters (Tables S2–S3 of the SM, and Table I of the main manuscript). (iv) A SOC/VCA/ subfolder containing FORCE_CONSTANTS and thermal_properties.yaml from VCA phonon calculations performed within the SOC framework, combining relativistic and vibrational thermodynamic corrections. The computed properties are used to map the AFM–FM magnetic crossover near MnTe0.75Sb0.25, demonstrate disorder- and spin-induced phonon broadening, identify a semiconductor-to-metal crossover, and quantify the pronounced magnetoelastic volume response near the magnetic phase boundary.

Public Reference Data for Megawatt-Scale Hydrogen Electrolysis - NLR Historical Wind

The U.S. Department of Energy and the National Laboratory of the Rockies (NLR) demonstrate hydrogen electrolysis from variable sources, hydrogen compression and storage, and hydrogen fuel cell power production using megawatt-scale equipment at NLR’s Flatirons Campus as part of the Advanced Research on Integrated Energy Systems (ARIES) initiative. This dataset represents part of that effort and is intended for academic, national laboratory, industrial, and other stakeholders to plan, design, and validate models of megawatt-scale hydrogen technologies and diverse energy infrastructure nationwide. These data provide a baseline for how existing hydrogen electrolysis technologies perform when coupled with various energy technologies. Future datasets will demonstrate how existing hydrogen fuel cell technologies can provide controllable, dispatchable, and variable power output for artificial intelligence (AI) data centers and other variable loads. This dataset entry describes hydrogen production by conducting a statistical analysis of historical wind data over a five-year period (2020-2025) from a single 1.5MW turbine manufactured by General Electric (GE) located at NLR’s Flatirons Campus, to generate an experimental test profile that was deployed on a 1.25-MW proton exchange membrane type MC250 electrolyzer system manufactured by Nel Hydrogen . [1] While the electrolyzer balance-of-plant supports up to 2.5 MW of electrolysis, NLR only has a single 1.25-MW electrolysis stack. The historical wind data provided several metrics, however, the analysis particularly focused on the measured power output by the wind turbine. The power output time series of data for each day was categorized by total energy generation and standard deviation, and the day that represented the highest combination of these two metrics was chosen – December 25th, 2022. This process was then repeated for a moving four-hour window within this day to identify the most statistically variable period. Finally, this four-hour period was scaled by 65% to match the 1.25 MW electrolyzer. The electrolysis system controls hydrogen production by varying DC current applied to the stack, from a maximum of 3000 A to a minimum safe operation of 300 A, or 10%. Because the current – voltage characteristic changes as the stack ages and efficiency degrades, the actual minimum safe operating power changes over time. The historical wind profiles were translated from power (kilowatts) to current (amperes) using a curve fit with calibration data and sent to the electrolyzer power supply at 1 Hz frequency. For more details on the statistical analysis process, see the presentation labeled “ Public Reference Data for Megawatt-Scale Hydrogen Electrolysis” provided with each data entry. These datasets report relevant hydrogen balance-of-plant and system data, all captured at 1 Hz, including hydrogen mass production measured with an Emerson Coriolis flow meter. Each .zip file represents a single wind turbine electrolysis experiment and is formatted as follows: {technology}_{scaling factor}-{electrolyzer ramp rate in amperes/second} For instance, “wind-GE1.5MW_0.65-400.zip” represents the hour-long experiment using historical data from the wind-GE1.5MW turbine, scaled to 65%, with the electrolyzer power supply set to a maximum ramp rate (gain and slew) of 400 A/s. Each .zip folder contains the following files: A .csv file containing raw data An .xlsx file explaining all the fields in the raw data. A .png plot showing the time series of hydrogen production, electrolysis power consumption, and wind power input. A PDF file detailing the historical wind data statistical analysis used to generate the wind profile. An experiment labeled “characterization_200.zip” demonstrates the MC250 electrolyzer steady-state response with 30-minute load steps for a total duration of 5 hours. Finally, a .csv file is provided with all simulated wind experiments combined into one dataset labeled "combined_historical_wind_experiments.csv". NLR also built an AI/machine-learning predictive model based on these datasets. The model ingests the electrolyzer current command in amperes, as well as various pressures and temperatures across the system, and predicts hydrogen output in kilograms per hour. The complete model can be found at https://huggingface.co/NatLabRockies/ptmelt-hydrogen-electrolysis [1] nelhydrogen.com/product/mc-series-electrolyser .

ML-based Micro-CT SOFC Microstructure Models (from Kent 2026 Microstructural Augmentation paper)

Overview -------------------------- This repository contains datasets from the manuscript **"Enhanced Generalizability to Deep-Learning Quantification of 3D Microstructural Characteristics through Microstructurally Aware Augmentation of Scarce Data"** (*William F. Kent, Rochan Bajpai, Rachel C. Kurchin, William K. Epting, Harry W. Abernathy, Paul A. Salvador. Submitted 2026*). The methods are also described in the dissertation **Data Intensive Analysis of Solid Oxide Cell Microstructures** (*Doctoral dissertation, Carnegie Mellon University, 2025*). The datasets here are trained convolutional neural network (CNN) models for predicting key microstructural properties of solid oxide cell (SOC) electrodes from low-res, 2-channel 3D images, as well as some helpful code. The parameters for input images are provided in the paper. Sample data is provided in the file `Combined_anode_aug_dual_1k_examples` - that particular data was used to train `anode_all_aug.pth` and will work most accurately with that model. Please familiarize yourself with all caveats on accuracy and applicability, as detailed in the associated paper. Usage -------------------------- The basic usage is as follows, assuming `model_fn` is the path to the .pth file, and `X` is 2-channel input image(s) of the proper dimensions (either one image of shape `[2,12,24,24]`, or a batch of N input images of shape `[N,2,12,24,24]`): from CNN_inferencer import load_model_for_inference model = load_model_for_inference(model_fn) y_predicted = model(X) The model object automatically handles input scaling and output de-scaling based on the way the models were trained - in other words, pass in a 2-channel micro-CT image, and it will output microstructural property values in real units. ## Other model object attributes Note that model has useful attributes other than its forward pass model(X). * `model.output_descaler` - returns the output descaler object. Model does the de-scaling when generating inferences, but you may want to re-use this de-scaler on other values to e.g. compare predictions to ground truth from already-scaled training data. * `model.prop_names` - Gives the property names of the predicted y values, in order. Only exists if there's an output scaler as part of the model object, which there will be in the models provided here. ## Usage with sample data Here is a short script to use with the included sample data. from CNN_inferencer import display_predictions, load_model_for_inference, calculate_mape, parity_plot import h5py import numpy as np model_fn = 'anode_all_aug.pth' data_fn = 'Combined_anode_aug_dual_1k_examples.h5' N_samples = 200 figure_outdir = '.' model = load_model_for_inference(model_fn) with h5py.File(data_fn,'r') as f: XX = f['X'] #These are the 2-channel 3D images yy = f['y'] #These are the ground-truth microstructural properties, but they have been scaled for training - need to de-scale below N = XX.shape[0] #How many images total in the input data file #Run inferences on N_samples random samples from XX. #Run in a batch, much more efficient than one at a time. ii = np.random.choice(N,N_samples,replace=False) ii.sort() y_pred = model(XX[ii]) #Get the original/true (but normalized/scaled) values from the training dataset... #Because they were normalized, they are not in real units yet. So let's also de-scale them using model.output_scaler. y_true = model.output_scaler.transform(yy[ii]) #Let's display actual values for just 5 random ones for i in np.random.choice(N_samples,5,replace=False): display_predictions(y_true[i], y_pred[i], model.prop_names) #Make parity plots for each property (ground truth vs predicted values) #Also label each plot with the mean abs. percent error (MAPE) of the predicted values for i,key in enumerate(model.prop_names): mape = calculate_mape(y_true[:,i], y_pred[:,i]) parity_plot(y_true[:,i], y_pred[:,i], figure_outdir, key, extra_title=f' ({mape:.2f}% MAPE)')

Analyzing the Impact of Future Weather Data on Energy Consumption in Weatherization Assistant

This study supports the mission of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP), which aims to increase the energy efficiency of dwellings and reduce their total residential expenditures. Specifically, we examine how projected future climate conditions may affect residential building energy performance by integrating future weather data into the National Energy Audit Tool (NEAT). Since WAP evaluates the cost-effectiveness of retrofit measures over lifespans of up to 30 years, accounting for evolving climate conditions is increasingly important. To reflect future household energy demands, this study replaces historically based Typical Meteorological Year (TMY3) weather inputs with Future Typical Meteorological Year (fTMY) datasets derived from global climate model (GCM) projections. A simulation-based framework was established to enable NEAT analysis under future weather conditions. This workflow involves converting EPW-format weather files into JSON inputs compatible with NEAT and generating degree-hour metrics needed for load calculations. The fTMY dataset used in this study was developed by Oak Ridge National Laboratory through downscaling of six GCMs under different emission scenarios and covers the period from 2020 to 2100. In contrast, the TMY3 dataset is based on historical weather data from 1961 to 1990. Simulations were conducted for benchmark single-family prototype buildings across ASHRAE climate zones 1–7, which cover all regions of the U.S. except the subarctic Zone 8 in northern Alaska, evaluating both heating and cooling loads under TMY3 and fTMY conditions. Four foundation types were tested, while heating systems were standardized, as NEAT does not differentiate thermal energy load by HVAC system type in its load calculations. Results show that fTMY weather input consistently yield lower heating loads and higher cooling loads across most locations, aligning with expected climate warming trends. Notably, colder regions such as zones 6A, 6B, and 7 experience marked reductions in heating load, while warmer and transitional zones, such as 2A (Lufkin, TX) and 3C (San Francisco, CA), have substantial increases in cooling loads. Although this study does not directly assess the performance of retrofit measures under future climate conditions, it provides a critical foundation for doing so. By quantifying shifts in baseline (i.e., pre-retrofit case) energy loads between historical and future weather files, the study highlights the importance of integrating climate-responsive data into audit tools. These findings will inform future efforts to evaluate the long-term effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of weatherization measures under changing climate conditions.

naturf: a package for generating urban parameters for numerical weather modeling

The Neighborhood Adaptive Tissues for Urban Resilience Futures tool (NATURF) is a Python workflow that generates files readable by the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. NATURF uses geopandas and hamilton to calculate 132 building parameters from shapefiles with building footprint and height information. These parameters can be collected and used in many formats, and the primary output is a binary file configured for input to WRF. This workflow is a flexible adaptation of the National/World Urban Database and Access Portal Tool (NUDAPT/WUDAPT) that can be used with any study area at any spatial resolution. The climate modeling community and urban planners can identify the effects of building/neighborhood morphology on the microclimate using the urban parameters and WRF-readable files produced by NATURF. More information on the urban parameters calculated can be found in the documentation.

MnRhBi3: A Cleavable Antiferromagnetic Metal

This dataset contains DFT input and output files supporting the theoretical modeling in the associated publication (Chem. Mater. 2024, 36, 11306-11316). The calculations characterize MnRhBi3, an orthorhombic (Cmmm) van der Waals-layered intermetallic compound that cleaves easily between neighboring Bi layers. The dataset is organized into three calculation types: (i) Bulk: Structural relaxations of the periodic MnRhBi3 crystal in antiferromagnetic (AFM) and ferromagnetic (FM) configurations, using the vdW-DF-optB86b functional. These provide the equilibrium lattice constants, magnetic energy differences (AFM is 0.5 meV/f.u. lower than FM), and magnetic moments (4.4 µB/Mn, 0.17 µB/Rh, 0.18 µB/Bi) reported in Table 1 of the main text. (ii) Slab: Same magnetic configurations computed with an 18 Ang vacuum layer introduced between Bi layers, used to calculate the cleavage energy Ec = 0.56 J/m2 (AFM) and 0.57 J/m2 (FM), establishing MnRhBi3 as a van der Waals-layered material comparable to graphite, MoS2, and CrI3. (iii) ELF: Single-point calculation on the relaxed bulk AFM geometry with LELF=.TRUE., producing the ELFCAR file used to generate electron localization function isosurfaces and contour maps (Fig. 2, main text) showing Bi lone pairs directed into the van der Waals gaps. All folders contain CONTCAR, INCAR, KPOINTS, OUTCAR, and POSCAR. The ELF/ folder additionally contains ELFCAR. Calculations were performed using VASP 6.3.2 with PBE + vdW-DF-optB86b, PAW potentials, and an energy cutoff of 800 eV.

Programmable Phase Selection between Altermagnetic and Noncentrosymmetric Polymorphs of MnTe on InP via Molecular Beam Epitaxy

This dataset contains DFT input and output files supporting the theoretical modeling in the associated publication (ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces 2026, 18, 15654-15664). The calculations model the interfacial energetics of two MnTe polymorphs — NiAs-MnTe (hexagonal, alpha phase) and ZnS-MnTe (cubic, gamma phase) — on InP(111) substrates with two surface terminations: In-terminated InP(111)A and P-terminated InP(111)B. This gives four interface configurations: NiAs on In-terminated (experimentally observed), NiAs on P-terminated (computed for comparison), ZnS on In-terminated (computed for comparison), and ZnS on P-terminated (experimentally observed). The dataset is organized into four calculation types, each covering all four polymorph/termination combinations: (i) Slabs: Pristine MnTe/InP heterostructure slabs used to compute total energies and interface energy densities (Eint) for all four configurations, as reported in Fig. 6 of the main text. (ii) Disorder: Same slab geometries with a P_Te + Te_P antisite defect pair introduced near the interface, used to assess chemical intermixing effects on interface stability (Fig. S8, SI). (iii) Strain: Pristine slab calculations with in-plane lattice parameters strained by -1% and +1% relative to the InP lattice constant, used to evaluate strain-dependent interface energetics (Fig. S9, SI). (iv) Charge_Density: Single-point calculations on the full heterostructure, the isolated InP slab, and the isolated MnTe slab at fixed geometry, used to compute differential charge density plots showing interfacial charge accumulation and depletion as a function of surface termination (Fig. S10, SI). Each calculation folder contains INCAR, KPOINTS, POSCAR, CONTCAR, OUTCAR, and POTCAR_info.txt (PAW potential information, excluding the full POTCAR due to VASP licensing restrictions). The calculations were performed using VASP 6.4.3 with PBE exchange-correlation, PAW potentials, a Hubbard correction of Ueff = 5 eV on Mn d-states, and A-type AFM spin initialization.
