ExINP-ENA Ice-Nucleating Particle Concentrations - CRAFT

This data set comprises cumulative ambient ice-nucleating particle (INP) concentrations measured at the U.S. Department of Energy's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Eastern North Atlantic (ENA) observatory on Graciosa Island, Azores (39.0916° N, 28.0257° W). Our INP data were generated using a combination of online instruments, the Portable Ice Nucleation Experiment chamber (PINE), and an offline assay instrument, the West Texas Cryogenic Refrigerator Applied to Freezing Test system (WT-CRAFT), for aerosol particle samples collected on polycarbonate filters (with 0.2-micron diameter pores).

Global Carbon Budget 2025

Accurate assessment of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions and their redistribution among the atmosphere, ocean, and terrestrial biosphere in a changing climate is critical to better understand the global carbon cycle, support the development of climate policies, and project future climate change. Here we describe and synthesise datasets and methodologies to quantify the five major components of the global carbon budget and their uncertainties. Fossil CO 2 emissions (E FOS ) are based on energy and cement production data. Emissions from land-use change (E LUC ) are estimated by bookkeeping models based on land-use data. The global atmospheric CO 2 growth rate (G ATM ) is computed from changes in concentration measured at surface stations. The global net uptake of CO 2 by the ocean (S OCEAN ) is estimated with global ocean biogeochemistry models and observation-based fCO 2 -products. The global net uptake of CO 2 by the land (S LAND ) is estimated with dynamic global vegetation models. Additional lines of evidence are provided by atmospheric inversions, atmospheric oxygen measurements, ocean interior observation-based estimates, and Earth System Models. This year, we introduced corrections on the E LUC , S OCEAN and S LAND estimates. The sum of all sources and sinks results in the carbon budget imbalance (B IM ), a measure of imperfect data and incomplete understanding of the contemporary carbon cycle. All uncertainties are reported as ± 1σ. For the year 2024, E FOS increased by 1.1 % relative to 2023, with fossil emissions at 10.3 ± 0.5 GtC yr −1 (including the cement carbonation sink, 0.2 GtC yr −1 ), E LUC was 1.3 ± 0.7 GtC yr −1 , for total anthropogenic CO 2 emissions of 11.6 ± 0.9 GtC yr −1 (42.4 ± 3.2 GtCO2 yr −1 ). Also, for 2024, G ATM was 7.9 ± 0.2 GtC yr−1 (3.73 ± 0.1 ppm yr −1 ), 2.2 GtC above the 2023 growth rate. SOCEAN was 3.4 ± 0.4 GtC yr −1 and S LAND was 1.9 ± 1.1 GtC yr −1 , leaving a large negative B IM (−1.7 GtC yr −1 ), suggesting that the total sink or G ATM is strongly overestimated in 2024. The global atmospheric CO 2 concentration averaged over 2024 reached 422.8 ± 0.1 ppm. Preliminary data for 2025 suggest an increase in E FOS relative to 2024 of +1.0 % (0.2 % to 1.7 %) globally, and atmospheric CO 2 concentration increasing by 2.1 ppm reaching 425.6 ppm, 53 % above the pre-industrial level (around 278 ppm in 1750). Overall, the mean and trend in the components of the global carbon budget are consistently estimated over the period 1959–2024, with a near-zero overall budget imbalance, although discrepancies of up to around 1 GtC yr −1 persist for the representation of annual to decadal variability in CO 2 fluxes. Comparison of estimates from multiple approaches and observations shows: (1) a persistent large uncertainty in the estimate of land-use change emissions, (2) a low agreement between the different methods on the magnitude of the land CO 2 flux in the northern extra-tropics, and (3) a discrepancy between the different methods on the mean ocean sink. This living data update documents changes in methods and datasets applied to this most-recent global carbon budget as well as evolving community understanding of the global carbon cycle.

Quantifying optical loss of high-voltage degradation modes in photovoltaic modules using spectral analysis

The direct current bias for photovoltaic (PV) modules interconnected in series-strings may include both high voltage negative (“HV-”) and positive (“HV+”) polarity with respect to the electrical ground. Multiple degradation modes, resulting in quantifiable optical loss, were found to occur during HV-/HV+ sequential stress, including corrosion of the external glass surface, encapsulant delamination (at its interfaces with the glass and the PV cell), internal haze formation (resulting from a chemical interaction between the glass and the encapsulant), corrosion and migration of the gridlines, and corrosion of the silicon nitride (Si x N y ) antireflective coating on the cell. The effects of these separate modes were examined using monolithic (e.g., glass or PV cell) and laminated-coupon (glass/encapsulant/glass or glass/encapsulant/cell/encapsulant/backsheet) specimens. Characterizations during and after unbiased accelerated testing at 85°C/85% relative humidity included spectrophotometry, optical microscopy, electron microscopy, and ellipsometry. For some module components (i.e., the glass and the Si x N y coating), the optical performance was determined through iterative analysis of empirical measurements. Concentrating on just their spectral effect, a novel model was then developed to estimate the transfer of light to the PV cell and the return of light from the PV module with simultaneous degradation mechanisms, which was compared with a mini-module previously subjected to HV-/HV+ stress. Here the model suggests that one third of the current loss observed for the mini-module can be attributed to the optical degradation of the packaging materials. The dominant degradation modes include encapsulant delamination and corrosion of the Si x N y coating. Recommendations are given so that the optical model may be improved relative to accelerated testing and validated relative to field aging.

Radioisotope dating of nuclear materials using cryogenic decay energy spectrometry

Cryogenic decay energy spectrometry provides high energy resolution and enables absolute decay counting, offering an alternative measurement technique for radiochronometry. A cryogenic decay energy spectrometry experiment was conducted using a magnetic microcalorimeter to determine the age of a plutonium sample. The energy resolution was measured at 0.05% from 5 to 6 MeV. The time since sample purification was determined using the measured concentration ratio of the 241 Am/ 241 Pu radiochronometer. Sample age estimates based on 241 Pu alpha-decay and beta-decay counts, along with 241 Am decay counts, align with the expected sample age within expanded uncertainty (k = 2), supporting the accuracy of cryogenic decay energy spectrometry as a radiochronometric method.

Photoionization of seeded combustion products as a method of enhancing the efficiency of magnetohydrodynamic power generators

Here, in this study, we performed an experimental and computational investigation into the feasibility of utilizing photoionization to enhance the electrical conductivity of seeded oxy-fuel combustion products and improve the performance of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) power generators. We applied a variety of optical and microwave diagnostics to study the ionization and recombination processes of potassium excited by an excimer laser in a high-velocity oxy-fuel free jet. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) simulations were performed to model the thermophysical properties and species densities of the free jet. The CFD results were validated with position-dependent potassium concentration measurements. Electron recombination exponential lifetimes were measured through time-resolved microwave transmission. The experimental electron lifetimes were compared with lifetimes calculated from CFD-predicted species densities and literature recombination rates. It was determined that K + or O 2 are the most likely recombination partners for photoionized electrons. Time-resolved fluorescence measurements provided evidence of an ionization pathway involving a two-photon ionization of KOH . Finally, a zero-dimensional chemical kinetic model was developed to assess the fundamental viability of inducing a non-equilibrium electron population to provide a net energy return in combustion-driven MHD power generators. We determined that a high energy return is feasible for targeting electrode boundary layers with ultraviolet photoionization. We also found that photoionization could potentially lower the required temperature of the bulk gas flow.

Spectroscopic features of dissolved iodine in pristine and gamma-irradiated nitric acid solutions

While iodine speciation is important for a wide range of nuclear activities, understanding the mechanisms of the transformations of iodine between chemical forms and the sensitivity of these transitions to solution conditions and exposure to radiation remains an active area of research. This work curates spectroscopic data from several experimental techniques and establishes their sensitivity and limitations in detecting changes in iodine speciation in both neutral and acidic regimes. The techniques include Raman spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, 127 I NMR spectroscopy, and ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy. Analysis of these data indicates that these commonly accessible spectroscopies often have dynamic ranges of measurable concentrations that do not always overlap between all techniques. The experimental techniques are disparately sensitive to iodide (I - ), molecular iodine (I 2 ), iodate (IO 3 - ), and periodate (IO 4 - ) species. Raman, FTIR, and NMR spectra were subsequentially analyzed using two-dimensional correlation analyses to generate high-resolution autocorrelation spectra. Here, the use of these spectroscopies is then extended to tracking acidification-induced and gamma irradiation-induced transformations of dissolved sodium iodate in deionized water and concentrated nitric acid. Both dissolution into nitric acid and irradiation with a gamma source are demonstrated to perturb the iodine speciation promoting their assembly into molecular iodine (I 2 ) and/or triiodide (I 3 - ). While I 2 and I 3 - species are undetectable with FTIR spectroscopy and 127 I NMR spectroscopy, the species can be detected with UV-Vis spectroscopy, and in some instances, I 3 - can be detected with Raman spectroscopy in the low wavenumber region. Ultimately, the results of this work provide a path to designing optimal combinations of techniques to detect forms of iodine across a wide range of concentrations and conditions.

Catalyzed oxidation of IG-110 nuclear graphite by simulated fission products Ag and Pd nanoparticles

To evaluate the stability of nuclear materials in high temperature gas reactors under air ingress conditions, catalytic oxidation of IG-110 graphite by two simulated fission products, metallic Pd and Ag, was studied in oxidative atmosphere and at temperatures up to 1000°C using an integrated furnace, mass spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy system. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction studies show that Pd and Ag nanoparticles were successfully introduced onto powdery IG-110 graphite through an impregnation and subsequent heat-treatment process. The combined mass spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy methods allow simultaneous analysis of two gaseous products, CO and CO 2 , and separate measurements of activation energy for their formation reactions. It was found that the introduction of Pd or Ag to IG-110 graphite substantially catalyzed the oxidation of graphite, characteristic of decreased onset temperatures for the oxidation of graphite. Moreover, the catalytic effects by Pd and Ag are considerably different based on measured concentration ratios of CO 2 to CO as a function of oxidation temperatures. Ag makes the graphite oxidation commence at approximately 400°C with CO 2 being the dominant product. In contrast, Pd significantly increases the concentration ratio of CO 2 to CO at temperatures higher than approximately 690°C, although it decreases the onset temperature for the oxidation reaction to around 525°C. To understand the catalytic difference, the mechanism of the graphite oxidation was discussed based on the changes of surface oxygen species on Ag and Pd.

Using electronic health record metadata to predict housing instability amongst veterans

Housing instability is considered a significant life stressor and preemptive screening should be applied to identify those at risk for homelessness as early as possible so that they can be targeted for specialized care. We developed models to classify patient outcomes for an established VA Homelessness Screening Clinical Reminder (HSCR), which identifies housing instability, in the two months prior to its administration. Logistic Regression and Random Forest models were fit to classify responses using the last 18 months of document activity. We measure concentration of risk across stratifications of predicted probability and observe an enriched likelihood of finding confirmed false negative responses from veterans with diagnosed housing instability. Positive responses were 34 times more likely to be detected within the top 1 % of patients predicted at risk than from those randomly selected. There is a 1 in 4 chance of detecting false negatives within the top 1 % of predicted risk. Machine learning methods can classify between episodes of housing instability using a data-driven approach that does not rely on variables curated from domain experts. This method has the potential to improve clinicians’ ability to identify veterans who are experiencing housing instability but are not captured by HSCR.

Progress in modeling hydrogen assisted ammonia oxidation with new experiments and a further reconciliation of the NH 3 + OH rate constant

Hydrogen-assisted oxidation of ammonia in a premixed, laminar flow tubular reactor under reducing conditions was investigated experimentally and through chemical kinetic modeling. Due to its impact on the competition for OH among ammonia and hydrogen, the rate constant for NH 3 + OH (R1) was determined through state-of-the-art theoretical kinetics calculations, employing composite energies that include the effects of higher order electronic excitations on the electronic energies along the variational reaction path and treating the limitations in the kinetics posed by the passage through a hydrogen-bonded complex. The resulting rate constant was in close agreement with the recent experimental value from Zaczek et al. (2025), settling a long-term dispute about the high-temperature value of k 1 and confirming within 20% the value previously used in modeling. The chemical kinetic model, with no other changes, captured well measured concentrations of NH 3 , H 2 , NO, and N 2 O from flow reactor oxidation of NH 3 /H 2 at slightly reducing conditions over a range of temperature (900-1350 K) and NH 3 /H 2 ratios (0.5-2.0). Comparison of the present results with reported data from a non-premixed setup indicates that for laminar flow tubular reactors, the reactor configuration may have implications for the observed H 2 consumption due to the possibility of preferential oxidation during mixing.

Physics-Informed Neural Network Method for Forward and Backward Advection-Dispersion Equations

Advection-dispersion equations (ADEs) are commonly used to describe transport phenomena in porous media. Even though mature discretization-based numerical methods for ADEs exist, some challenges still remain, especially when it comes to solving advection-dominated forward ADEs and diffusion-dominated backward ADEs. The latter problem usually arises in the source identification context and leads to numerically unstable grid-based solutions that require a form of regularization or should be treated as an inverse problem that is computationally more expensive because it requires solving the forward problem multiple times. In this study, we propose a discretization-free approach based on the physics-informed neural network (PINN) method for solving coupled ADE and Darcy flow equations with space-dependent hydraulic conductivity. In this approach, the hydraulic conductivity, hydraulic head, and concentration fields are approximated with deep neural networks (DNNs). We assume that the conductivity field is given by its values on a grid, and we use these values to train the conductivity DNN. The head and concentration DNNs are trained by minimizing the residuals of the flow equation and ADE and using the initial and boundary conditions as additional constraints. The PINN method is applied to one- and two-dimensional forward ADE problems, where its performance for various P\'{e}clet numbers ($Pe$) is compared with the analytical and numerical solutions. We find that the PINN method is accurate with errors of less than 1\% and outperforms some conventional discretization-based methods for $Pe$ larger that 100. Next, we demonstrate that the PINN method remains accurate for the backward ADEs, with the relative errors in most cases staying under 5\% compared to the reference concentration field. Finally, we show that when available, the concentration measurements can be easily incorporated in the PINN method and significantly improve (by more than 50\% in the considered cases) the accuracy of the PINN solution of the backward ADE.

Deep Learning for Simultaneous Inference of Hydraulic and Transport Properties

Abstract Identification of a heterogeneous conductivity field and reconstruction of a contaminant release history are key aspects of subsurface remediation. These two goals are achieved by combining model predictions with sparse and noisy hydraulic head and concentration measurements. Solution of this inverse problem is notoriously difficult due to, in part, high dimensionality of the parameter space and high computational cost of repeated forward solves. We use a convolutional adversarial autoencoder (CAAE) to parameterize a heterogeneous non‐Gaussian conductivity field via a low‐dimensional latent representation. A three‐dimensional dense convolutional encoder‐decoder (DenseED) network serves as a forward surrogate of the flow and transport model. The CAAE‐DenseED surrogate is fed into the ensemble smoother with multiple data assimilation (ESMDA) algorithm to sample from the Bayesian posterior distribution of the unknown parameters, forming a CAAE‐DenseED‐ESMDA inversion framework. The resulting CAAE‐DenseED‐ESMDA inversion strategy is used to identify a three‐dimensional contaminant source and conductivity field. A comparison of the inversion results from CAAE‐ESMDA with physical flow and transport simulator and from CAAE‐DenseED‐ESMDA shows that the latter yields accurate reconstruction results at the fraction of the computational cost of the former.

Characterizing the Atmospheric Mn Cycle and Its Impact on Terrestrial Biogeochemistry

Abstract The role of manganese (Mn) in ecosystem carbon (C) biogeochemical cycling is gaining increasing attention. While soil Mn is mainly derived from bedrock, atmospheric deposition could be a major source of Mn to surface soils, with implications for soil C cycling. However, quantification of the atmospheric Mn cycle, which comprises emissions from natural (desert dust, sea salts, volcanoes, primary biogenic particles, and wildfires) and anthropogenic sources (e.g., industrialization and land‐use change due to agriculture), transport, and deposition, remains uncertain. Here, we use compiled emission data sets for each identified source to model and quantify the atmospheric Mn cycle by combining an atmospheric model and in situ atmospheric concentration measurements. We estimated global emissions of atmospheric Mn in aerosols (<10 μm in aerodynamic diameter) to be 1,400 Gg Mn year −1 . Approximately 31% of the emissions come from anthropogenic sources. Deposition of the anthropogenic Mn shortened Mn “pseudo” turnover times in 1‐m‐thick surface soils (ranging from 1,000 to over 10,000,000 years) by 1–2 orders of magnitude in industrialized regions. Such anthropogenic Mn inputs boosted the Mn‐to‐N ratio of the atmospheric deposition in non‐desert dominated regions (between 5 × 10 −5 and 0.02) across industrialized areas, but that was still lower than soil Mn‐to‐N ratio by 1–3 orders of magnitude. Correlation analysis revealed a negative relationship between Mn deposition and topsoil C density across temperate and (sub)tropical forests, consisting with atmospheric Mn deposition enhancing carbon respiration as seen in in situ biogeochemical studies.

Dissecting the contributions to non-photochemical quenching in a land plant under fluctuating light

Photosynthetic organisms have evolved multiple non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) processes, providing photoprotection by safely dissipating excess excitation energy. These processes involve various molecular players functioning on overlapping timescales from seconds to days, making it challenging to isolate and quantify their individual kinetics. In this study, we perform whole-leaf chlorophyll fluorescence lifetime and xanthophyll concentration measurements on wild-type and various newly characterized NPQ mutants of Nicotiana benthamiana, a vascular land plant. Based on these measurements, we construct a fluorescence lifetime-based quantitative kinetic model that disentangles individual photoprotection components and, when integrated additively, accurately predicts wild-type and mutant NPQ behaviors under various light-dark regimes. Additionally, the model quantifies the per-molecule quenching effectiveness of various xanthophylls and the contributions of six quenching components (qE V , qE A , qE Z , qE L , qZ, and qI) across different genotypes. It also suggests improved overall quenching efficiency at specific VDE:ZEP:PsbS overexpression stoichiometries, aligning with previous studies and supporting translational efforts to optimize photoprotection and enhance crop yields under dynamic light environments.

Database of pharmacokinetic time-series data and parameters for 144 environmental chemicals

Time courses of compound concentrations in plasma are used in chemical safety analysis to evaluate the relationship between external administered doses and internal tissue exposures. This type of experimental data is rarely available for the thousands of non-pharmaceutical chemicals to which people may potentially be unknowingly exposed but is necessary to properly assess the risk of such exposures. In vitro assays and in silico models are often used to craft an understanding of a chemical’s pharmacokinetics; however, the certainty of the quantitative application of these estimates for chemical safety evaluations cannot be determined without in vivo data for external validation. To address this need, we present a public database of chemical time-series concentration data from 567 studies in humans or test animals for 144 environmentally-relevant chemicals and their metabolites (187 analytes total). All major administration routes are incorporated, with concentrations measured in blood/plasma, tissues, and excreta. We also include calculated pharmacokinetic parameters for some studies, and a bibliography of additional source documents to support future extraction of time-series. In addition to pharmacokinetic model calibration and validation, these data may be used for analyses of diferential chemical distribution across chemicals, species, doses, or routes, and for meta-analyses on pharmacokinetic studies.

Quadrupole and multi-collector ICP-MS analysis of 226 Ra in brain from a radium dial painter

We report two ICP-MS methods were developed to measure the radiotoxic isotope 226 Ra in brain tissues from a radium dial painter worker. The first method was a direct analysis of acid digested samples using quadrupole ICP-MS. The instrumental LOD of 226 Ra was 0.1 ng kg -1 . Polyatomic interferences at m/z 226 were investigated and Pb was identified from a polyatomic interferent in an in-house sample prepared from bovine brain, with a 226/208 formation ratio of 4 × 10 -8 . The quadrupole ICP-MS method was also used to measure levels of beryllium, strontium, and uranium. A second method was developed that included cation-exchange chromatography to separate 226 Ra followed by analysis with sector field MC-ICP-MS. The instrumental LOD for the cation exchange method with MC-ICP-MS detection was 0.5 pg kg -1 (19 mBq kg -1 ). The measured concentrations of 226 Ra in different brain regions ranged from 0.09–0.72 ng kg -1 (3.3–27 Bq kg -1 ) and radium was non-uniformly distributed in the brain.

Purification of U from U-10Mo scrap generated during the fabrication of high performance research reactor fuel

A low enriched U-Mo alloy fuel is under development to replace highly enriched U fuels currently used in United States high performance research reactors. The alloy casting and fuel fabrication processes will generate scrap streams containing low enriched U (LEU) which must be recovered. Solvent extraction processes were designed using the Argonne Model for Universal Solvent Extraction (AMUSE) to purify solutions containing 20 and 50 g/L U. The feed for the solvent extraction processes was prepared from solutions generated from the dissolution of U-10Mo-Zr foils and U-10Mo-Zr-Al mini-plates. The U purification processes were demonstrated using two, 16-stage banks of miniature mixer-settlers. The solvent extraction experiments demonstrated that all design objectives for the U purification processes could be met. The U recovery in the product stream for each flowsheet was ≥99.9%. The flowsheet demonstrations also showed that the purity of the U Product will meet the requirements of the ASTM International C1462-21 specification for LEU metal enriched to less than 20% 235 U. In conclusion, the AMUSE modeling for both flowsheet demonstrations was validated by comparing predicted and measured concentrations of U, Mo, and Zr in the exit streams and stage samples at steady-state conditions in the mixer-settlers.

Discrimination between individual dust and bioparticles using aerosol time-of-flight mass spectrometry

Ice nucleating particles (INPs) impact cloud properties and precipitation processes through their ability to trigger cloud glaciation. Dust and bioparticles are two important sources of INPs that have markedly different atmospheric loadings and ice nucleating efficiencies. In situ identification of the sources of INPs in clouds has been accomplished using single particle mass spectrometry (SPMS). However, external mixtures of dust and bioparticles present a unique challenge as they have overlapping mass spectral ion signatures, complicating their unambiguous identification. This study presents a detailed discussion of dust and bioparticle SPMS signatures, uniting data from a broad array of studies. As emphasized, the ion signals from both dust and bioparticles are highly sensitive to ionization conditions. To understand the observed variations, we characterize the mass spectral dependence of distinct dust and bioparticle samples using total positive ion intensity (TPII) as an indicator of the laser pulse energy each particle encountered. Through this analysis, a broad range of characteristic biogenic low intensity ion peaks that may be useful to distinguish bioparticles from dust became apparent and are highlighted. Insights informed by this analysis were utilized to identify bioparticles in ambient SPMS data. Ambient particles exhibiting both dust and characteristic biogenic spectral fingerprints were excluded from the bioparticle classification. Although bioparticles only made up 0.2% of all sampled particles, their abundance was moderately correlated with INP concentrations measured at 15 °C.
