Heart rate variability data.

This dataset is derived from a study exploring the Effect of Example Variability on the Implicit Learning of Multiple Non-adjacent Rule. The dataset contains all behavioral data and corresponding statistical analysis codes from two experiments in the study. Please refer to the attached Readme.txt file for file description and data structure, which provides detailed information on data format, variable meanings, and code execution instructions.

This dataset includes daily two-band Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI2) at 30-m resolution over a Landsat scene (path 26 and row 31) in central Iowa. Fourteen years of daily EVI2 from 2001 to 2015 (except 2012) were generated through fusing and interpolating Landsat-MODIS data.Landsat surface reflectances were order and used in this study. Mostly clear Landsat images from each year were chosen to pair with MODIS images acquired from the same day to generate daily Landsat-MODIS surface reflectance using the Spatial and Temporal Adaptive Reflectance Fusion Model (STARFM). Partially clear Landsat images were also used in generating the smoothed and gap-filled daily VI time-series. All available Landsat data including Landsat 5 Thematic Mapper (TM), Landsat 7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) and Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) were used in this study.The MODIS data products were downloaded and processed. These include the daily surface reflectance at both 250m (MOD09GQ) and 500m (MOD09GA) resolution, the MODIS Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) parameters at 500m resolution, and the MODIS land cover types at 500m resolution (MCD12Q1). They were used to generated daily nadir BRDF-adjusted reflectance (NBAR) at 250m resolution for fusing with Landsat.The Landsat-MODIS data fusion results for 2001-2014 were generated from a previous study (Gao et al, 2017; doi: 10.1016/j.rse.2016.11.004). Data fusion results for 2015 were generated using Landsat 8 OLI images from day 194, 226, 258 and 338 in this study. Cloud masks were extracted from Landsat and MODIS QA layers and were used to exclude cloud, cloud shadow and snow pixels. Since Landsat 5 TM operational imaging ended in November 2011 and Landsat 8 OLI has not been launched until February 2013, Landsat 7 ETM+ Scan Line Corrector (SLC)-off images are the only available Landsat data. For this reason, 2012 was not included.Due to the cloud contamination in the Landsat and MODIS images, the fused Landsat-MODIS results still have invalid values or gaps. To fill these gaps, a modified Savitzky-Golay (SG) filter approach was built and applied to smooth and gap-fill EVI2. The SG filter is a moving fitting approach. Each point is smoothed using the value computed from the polynomial function fit to the observations within the moving window. The program removes spike points if the fitting errors are larger than the predefined threshold (default 3 standard deviation). The modified SG filter allows us to retain small variations but also fill large gaps in an unevenly distributed time-series EVI2.Daily EVI2 files are saved in one tar file per year. Each tar file contains a binary image file and a text header file that can be displayed in the ENVI software. The binary image file has the dimension of 7201 lines by 8061 samples by 365 days and is saved in BIP (band interleaved by pixel) format. EVI2 data are saved in 4-byte float number. The text header file contains necessary information including projection and geolocation. Daily EVI2 file is named as "flexfit_evi2.026031.yyyy.bin", where "026031" refers to the Landsat path and row, and yyyy represents year and ranges from 2001-2015.Resources in this dataset:Resource Title: Daily EVI2 Data Packages .File Name: Web Page, url: https://app.globus.org/file-manager?origin_id=904c2108-90cf-11e8-9672-0a6d4e044368&origin_path=/LTS/ADCdatastorage/NAL/published/node22870/These Daily EVI2 data packages are grouped by year.

Climate Variability and Predictability (CLIVAR)

We designed novel field experimental infrastructure to resolve the relative importance and interactions among changes in precipitation mean and variance in regulating the structure and function of dryland populations, communities, and ecosystem processes. The Mean x Variance Experiment (MVE) adds three novel elements to prior designs (Gherardi & Sala 2013) that have manipulated interannual variance in climate in the field by (i) determining interactive effects of mean and variance in a factorial design that crosses a drier mean with increased (more) variance, (ii) studying multiple dryland ecosystem types to compare their susceptibility to transition under interactive climate drivers, and (iii) adding stochasticity to our treatments to permit the antecedent effects that occur under natural climate variability. This new infrastructure enables direct experimental tests of the hypothesis that interactions between the mean and variance of precipitation will have larger ecological impacts than either the mean or variance in precipitation alone. We collected samples of soils, biological soil crusts, leaves of the foundation plant species, and roots of the two dominant grass species each year during peak productivity (September-October). These samples enable us to address the question: How do interactions between the mean and variance of precipitation alter the biogeochemistry and microbiomes of plants and soils. This data package includes accession numbers for all samples collected from the Mean x Variance Experiment at the Sevilleta National Wildlife Refuge, Socorro, NM.

Nutritional ecology forms the interface between environmental variability and large herbivore behaviour, life history characteristics, and population dynamics. Forage conditions in arid and semi-arid regions are driven by unpredictable spatial and temporal patterns in rainfall. Diet selection by herbivores should be directed towards overcoming the most pressing nutritional limitation (i.e. energy, protein [nitrogen, N], moisture) within the constraints imposed by temporal and spatial variability in forage conditions. We investigated the influence of precipitation-induced shifts in forage nutritional quality and subsequent large herbivore responses across widely varying precipitation conditions in an arid environment. Specifically, we assessed seasonal changes in diet breadth and forage selection of adult female desert bighorn sheep Ovis canadensis mexicana in relation to potential nutritional limitations in forage N, moisture and energy content (as proxied by dry matter digestibility, DMD). Succulents were consistently high in moisture but low in N and grasses were low in N and moisture until the wet period. Nitrogen and moisture content of shrubs and forbs varied among seasons and climatic periods, whereas trees had consistently high N and moderate moisture levels. Shrubs, trees and succulents composed most of the seasonal sheep diets but had little variation in DMD. Across all seasons during drought and during summer with average precipitation, forages selected by sheep were higher in N and moisture than that of available forage. Differences in DMD between sheep diets and available forage were minor. Diet breadth was lowest during drought and increased with precipitation, reflecting a reliance on few key forage species during drought. Overall, forage selection was more strongly associated with N and moisture content than energy content. Our study demonstrates that unlike north-temperate ungulates which are generally reported to be energy-limited, N and moisture may be more nutritionally limiting for desert ungulates than digestible energy.

Contained within the 3rd Edition (1957) of the Atlas of Canada is a plate with three maps that show the mean annual number of days with measurable precipitation, the mean annual number of days with measurable snowfall, and the variability of annual precipitation. A day with sufficient measurable precipitation (a precipitation day) is considered as a day on which the recorded rainfall amounts to one one-hundredth of an inch (0.0254 cm) or more, or the snowfall measured is one-tenth of an inch (0.254 cm) or more. At any one location the annual precipitation may vary considerably from one year to the next. This variability of annual precipitation is expressed in terms of the coefficient of variation. This coefficient is obtained by dividing the standard deviation of the annual precipitation by the mean annual precipitation.

Measuring adaptive capacity as a key component of vulnerability assessments has become one of the mostchallenging topics in the climate change adaptation context. Numerous approaches, methodologies and con-ceptualizations have been proposed for analyzing adaptive capacity at different scales. Indicator-based assess-ments are usually applied to assess and quantify the adaptive capacity for the use of policy makers. Nevertheless,they encompass various implications regarding scale specificity and the robustness issues embedded in thechoice of indicators selection, normalization and aggregation methods. We describe an adaptive capacity indexdeveloped for Italy's regional and sub-regional administrative levels, as a part of the National Climate ChangeAdaptation Plan, and that is further elaborated in this article. The index is built around four dimensions and tenindicators, analysed and processed by means of a principal component analysis and fuzzy logic techniques. As aninnovative feature of our analysis, the sub-regional variability of the index feeds back into the regional levelassessment. The results show that composite indices estimated at higher administrative or statistical levels ne-glect the inherent variability of performance at lower levels which may lead to suboptimal adaptation policies.By considering the intra-regional variability, different patterns of adaptive capacity can be observed at regionallevel as a result of the aggregation choices. Trade-offs should be made explicit for choosing aggregators thatreflect the intended degree of compensation. Multiple scale assessments using a range of aggregators with dif-ferent compensability are preferable. Our results show that within-region variability can be better demonstratedby bottom-up aggregation methods.

Understanding temporal variability and synchrony across biological hierarchical levels (from species to metacommunities) and ecosystems, and their underlying drivers, remains a fundamental ecological question. However, most studies are performed within an ecosystem, overlooking the complexity structuring natural high-level metacommunities across ecosystems. By applying theoretical frameworks of metacommunity variability with phytoplankton datasets across a pond-stream-lake continuum, we show that (i) temporal variability decreases from species to metacommunities, while synchrony exhibits complex hierarchical patterns and varies depending on spatial scales; (ii) temporal variability and synchrony are lower in streams than ponds or the lake, and spatiotemporal community-environment relationships are stronger in the lake than the ponds or streams. These patterns are strongly related to environmental fluctuations, dispersal and species diversity.

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) requires the annual reporting of greenhouse gas emissions. These inventories focus on emissions within a territory, and do not capture the effect of de-carbonization in developed countries that has resulted simply by the relocation of emissions-intensive production to other countries. Consumption based carbon accounting (CBCA) has been proposed as a complementary method to capture the emissions occurring globally due to final demand in a country. A number of global models have been developed in the last decade in order to operationalise CBCA. However, direct comparison of results from different models yields significant discrepancies in country-level CBCA, which causes concern for the practical use of CBCA. There is a body of existing work on model intercomparison and reliability, but this literature has largely overlooked a main use case of CBCA results: trends over time. To facilitate temporal intercomparison, we present results of all the major global models and normalise the model results by looking at changes over time of each model relative to a common base year value. We give an analysis of the variability across the models, both before and after normalisation in order to give insights into robustness (variance) at both national and regional level. The paper is accompanied by the dataset of CBCA results of each country/year with harmonised results (based on the means) and measures of dispersion, providing a useful and often requested baseline dataset for CBCA validation and analysis.

Elevated blood pressure is a risk factor for increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Decreased vagally-mediated heart rate variability has previously been prospectively linked with increased blood pressure; however, to date, no such prospective data exist regarding this relationship among Blacks. We examined this association in 387 normotensive young adults (mean age, 23 years, 52% female, 54% Black) who participated in two laboratory evaluations spanning approximately six years. Blood pressure was measured at both timepoints with a non-invasive oscillometric device and heart rate variability was assessed via bio-impedance. In the total sample, heart rate variability significantly predicted systolic (p = .022) and diastolic (p < .001) blood pressure increases six years into the future. However, this pattern varied as a function of ethnicity and sex with the effect of heart rate variability on Time 2 systolic blood pressure only significant among White males (p = .007). Heart rate variability was also predictive of Time 2 diastolic blood pressure in White males (p = .038) as well as among both White (p = .032) and Black (p = .015) females, but was not related to blood pressure among Black males. We report for the first time significant ethnic and sex differences in the prospective relationship between heart rate variability and blood pressure change. These findings may give clues as to the underlying mechanisms that are involved in the well-known health disparities in blood pressure and hypertension-related cardiovascular diseases.
