• Title: A Dataset for Research on Water Sustainability
• Authors: Pranjol Sen Gupta, Md Rajib Hossen, Pengfei Li, Shaolei Ren, Mohammad A. Islam,
• Abstract summary: We build a dataset for operation direct water usage in the cooling systems and indirect water embedded in electricity generation. Our dataset consists of the hourly water efficiency of major U.S. cities and states from 2019 to 2023. We present a preliminary analysis of our dataset and discuss three potential applications that can benefit from it.

• Abstract: Freshwater scarcity is a global problem that requires collective efforts across all industry sectors. Nevertheless, a lack of access to operational water footprint data bars many applications from exploring optimization opportunities hidden within the temporal and spatial variations. To break this barrier into research in water sustainability, we build a dataset for operation direct water usage in the cooling systems and indirect water embedded in electricity generation. Our dataset consists of the hourly water efficiency of major U.S. cities and states from 2019 to 2023. We also offer cooling system models that capture the impact of weather on water efficiency. We present a preliminary analysis of our dataset and discuss three potential applications that can benefit from it. Our dataset is publicly available at Open Science Framework (OSF)

  Global warming made the Arctic available for marine operations and created demand for reliable operational sea ice forecasts. In this work, we investigate the performance of the U-Net model trained in two regimes for predicting sea ice for up to the next 10 days. We show that this deep learning model can outperform simple baselines by a significant margin and improve its quality by using additional weather data and training on multiple regions.
