Data for 'Structural and Thermodynamic Classification of Amyloid Polymorphs'
Full text linkOver 500 amyloid structures have been solved to date to near-atomic resolution. This has highlighted an enormous diversity of fibril structures conforming to the canonical cross-β amyloid fold. Using α-synuclein and tau amyloid structures as models, we show that they can be hierarchically clustered into topologically distinct fold families. Despite their different topologies, fibrils display remarkably similar energy profiles, as determined by FoldX, with the same regions providing stability among different polymorphs. We found that the regions that stabilise the amyloid core pair in different ways to generate distinct topologies. The results provide a framework to classify newly solved fibril structures as belonging to an existing class or forming a new topological cross-β fold. Furthermore, the analysis facilitates comparisons between fibrils found in disease and those formed in vitro, including their nearest structural neighbours. The workflow has been automated, enabling users to interrogate new amyloid structures as they emerge
Survey on public perspectives on water quality communication and participatory monitoring approaches in Jalisco, Mexico
Full text linkThis repository hosts the original Spanish questionnaire and an English translation used in a representative, state-wide survey of 1,036 adults in Jalisco, Mexico (June 2024). The 33-item instrument covers: (1) public understanding of water quality; (2) perceptions of water quality communication; (3) Interest in participatory water quality monitoring; and (4) demographics. The survey was administered face-to-face using a three-stage cluster sampling design to maximize coverage across the state. These materials accompany the publication "Public Perspectives on Water Quality Communication and Interest in Participatory Monitoring Approaches in Jalisco, Mexico," and are shared to support transparency and reuse in research and practice
Economic valuation of pest regulation benefits provided by insects in the UK: a supporting dataset
No full textThe role of insects as regulators of crop pests has gone underexamined in comparison to their, often dual, role as crop pollinators. While pollination services have been widely studied, the economic value of pest regulation provided by natural enemy species remains underexplored. The suppression of crop pests by natural enemies may provide substantial value to agriculture in reduced crop losses. Here, we estimate the economic value of pest regulation services provided by insects in the UK for wheat (Triticum spp.), barley (Hordeum vulgare), and oilseed rape (Brassica napus) crops. We used an economic production function to estimate the average annual value of pest regulation provided by insects in the UK, and then simulated economic benefits across a range of reductions (1% - 99%) in the presence of natural enemies. A 10% reduction from a full complement of natural enemies had an estimated value per hectare between £108.98 - £171.13 for barley, £36.93 - £73.97 for oilseed rape, and £0.74 - £9.60 for wheat. However, there are areas of uncertainty around the efficacy of natural enemies, crop yield response, economic thresholds, and field management. Resolving these sources of uncertainty and quantifying the economic value of pest regulation could inform sustainable pest management strategies and wider insect conservation practice

Simulated Data for Comparison of On-chip Terahertz Filters for Sub-wavelength Dielectric Sensing
No full textThis paper discusses the application of on-chip terahertz (THz) filters attached to waveguides that can act as sensor elements, including for scanned imaging applications. Our work presents a comparative numerical This paper discusses the application of on-chip terahertz (THz) filters attached to waveguides that can act as sensor elements, including for scanned imaging applications. Our work presents a comparative numerical study of several different geometries (comprising five split-ring resonator geometries and a quarter-wavelength stub resonator, the latter being well established as a sensor at THz frequencies and therefore able to act as a benchmark. We designed each structure to have a resonant frequency of 500 GHz, allowing the impact of resonator geometry on sensing performance to be isolated; the performance was quantified by assessing each design using four figures of merit: resonance quality factor, sensitivity (relative frequency shift under dielectric loading), responsivity (sensitivity weighted by resonance sharpness), and the electric field confinement area. Simulations were conducted using Ansys HFSS using the properties of commercially available photoresist (Shipley 1813) as a dielectric load to assess performance under conditions comparable to previous experimental studies. The analysis showed that while sensitivity remained broadly similar across geometries, responsivity and quality factor differed substantially between resonators. Furthermore, the spatial distribution of the electric field and current density, particularly in rotated configurations, was found to significantly impact coupling efficiency between the resonator and transmission line. Our findings provide guidance for the general design of systems employing THz sensors while establishing a framework with which to benchmark future sensor geometries study of several different geometries (comprising five split-ring resonator geometries and a quarter-wavelength stub resonator, the latter being well established as a sensor at THz frequencies and therefore able to act as a benchmark.

Dataset for 'A flexible implementation of strong segregation theory for two dimensional ABC star terpolymer morphologies'
No full textThe dataset contains the data for generating the figures in the paper. There are three main parameters: NChiAB, NChiBC and NchiAC, whose values are given in the paper and specified in the names of the directories. Each directory contains subdirectories for each of the ten morphologies considered in the paper. Each subdirectory has six files giving the free energy as a function of phi_A, phi_B and phi_C, one file for each of the six ways of distributing the three polymer types. In addition, a sample python script is given, including appropriate input files for each morphology

The page includes an animation and graph of a variational solution for a physically valid trajectory of least effort of the hand-stand problem for the Lazy Monkey model. For comparison, other examples of movements are also shown that violate the published dynamical principles or that satisfy different boundary conditions. All animations and graphs are annotated and described within the web page, which can be viewed using a standard web browser
