This is a database of 16S and 23S ribosomal RNA mutations reported in literature, expanded to include mutations in ribosomal proteins and ribosomal factors. Access to the expanded versions of the 16S and 23S Ribosomal RNA Mutation Databases has been improved to permit searches of the lists of alterations for all the data from (1) one specific organism, (2) one specific nucleotide position, (3) one specific phenotype, or (4) a particular author. Please send bibliographic citations for published work to be included in The Ribosomal Mutation Database to the curator via email. The database currently consists of 1024 records, including 485 16S rRNA records from Escherichia coli, 37 16S-like rRNA records from other organisms, 421 23S rRNA records from E. coli, and 81 23S-like records from other organisms. The numbering of positions in all records corresponds to the numbering in E. coli. We welcome any suggested revisions to the database, as well as information about newly characterized 16S or 23S rRNA mutations. The expanded database will be renamed to The Ribosomal Mutation Database and will include mutations in ribosomal proteins and ribosomal factors.

Passive and active source waveform data, event (earthquake) catalog, channel response data is available. This comprehensive data store of raw geophysical time-series data is collected from a large variety of sensors, courtesy of a vast array of US and International scientific networks, including seismometers (permanent and temporary), tilt and strain meters, infrasound, temperature, atmospheric pressure and gravimeters, to support basic research aimed at imaging the Earth's interior. IRIS also provides data and software for educational purposes. This consortium of over 100 US universities is dedicated to the operation of science facilities for the acquisition, management, and distribution of seismological data. IRIS programs contribute to scholarly research, education, earthquake hazard mitigation, and verification of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty. Data is stored at the IRIS Data Management Center in Seattle, Washington. They currently manage a large archive from over tens of thousands of seismic stations and ship hundreds of terabytes of data yearly.

Model repository and data related to earth-surface dynamics modeling. The CSDMS Modeling Tool (CMT) allows you to run and couple CSDMS model components on the CSDMS supercomputer in a user-friendly software environment. Components in the CMT are based on models, originally submitted to the CSDMS model repository, and now adapted to communicate with other models. The CMT tool is the environment in which you can link these components together to run new simulations. The CMT software runs on your own computer; but it communicates with the CSDMS HPCC, to perform the simulations. Thus, the CMT also offers you a relatively easy way of using the CSDMS supercomputer for model experiments. CSDMS deals with the Earth's surface - the ever-changing, dynamic interface between lithosphere, hydrosphere, cryosphere, and atmosphere. They are a diverse community of experts promoting the modeling of earth surface processes by developing, supporting, and disseminating integrated software modules that predict the movement of fluids, and the flux (production, erosion, transport, and deposition) of sediment and solutes in landscapes and their sedimentary basins. CSDMS: * Produces protocols for community-generated, continuously evolving, open software * Distributes software tools and models * Provides cyber-infrastructure to promote the quantitative modeling of earth surface processes * Addresses the challenging problems of surface-dynamic systems: self-organization, localization, thresholds, strong linkages, scale invariance, and interwoven biology & geochemistry * Enables the rapid development and application of linked dynamic models tailored to specific landscape basin evolution (LBE) problems at specific temporal and spatial scales * Partners with related computational and scientific programs to eliminate duplication of effort and to provide an intellectually stimulating environment * Supports a strong linkage between what is predicted by CSDMS codes and what is observed, both in nature and in physical experiments * Supports the imperatives in Earth Science research

https://kepler-project.org/

Kepler is a software application for analyzing and modeling scientific data. Using Kepler''s graphical interface and components, scientists with little background in computer science can create executable models, called scientific workflows, for flexibly accessing scientific data (streaming sensor data, medical and satellite images, simulation output, observational data, etc.) and executing complex analyses on this data. Kepler is developed by a cross-project collaboration led by the Kepler/CORE team. The software builds upon the mature Ptolemy II framework, developed at the University of California, Berkeley. Ptolemy II is a software framework designed for modeling, design, and simulation of concurrent, real-time, embedded systems. The Kepler Project is dedicated to furthering and supporting the capabilities, use, and awareness of the free and open source, scientific workflow application, Kepler. Kepler is designed to help scien��tists, analysts, and computer programmers create, execute, and share models and analyses across a broad range of scientific and engineering disciplines. Kepler can operate on data stored in a variety of formats, locally and over the internet, and is an effective environment for integrating disparate software components, such as merging R scripts with compiled C code, or facilitating remote, distributed execution of models. Using Kepler''s graphical user interface, users simply select and then connect pertinent analytical components and data sources to create a scientific workflowan executable representation of the steps required to generate results. The Kepler software helps users share and reuse data, workflows, and compo��nents developed by the scientific community to address common needs. Kepler is a java-based application that is maintained for the Windows, OSX, and Linux operating systems. The Kepler Project supports the official code-base for Kepler development, as well as provides materials and mechanisms for learning how to use Kepler, sharing experiences with other workflow developers, reporting bugs, suggesting enhancements, etc. The Kepler Project Leadership Team works to assure the long-term technical and financial viability of Kepler by making strategic decisions on behalf of the Kepler user community, as well as providing an official and durable point-of-contact to articulate and represent the interests of the Kepler Project and the Kepler software application. Details about how to get more involved with the Kepler Project can be found in the developer section of this website.
