The European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) is running a data lake across two datacentre sites, based on NetApp storage, to support scientific research. Modern scientific research is heavily dependent on big data analysis and increasingly relies on artificial intelligence (AI)-based methods. EMBL’s research groups develop their own AI models,…

I generated a heatmap with ggplot, and order the samples by using hclust, However, I still need more reordering to get all the similar values corespondent with one of the samples in the ordered cluster. Here I generate a samples data to explain better. set.seed(99) M <- data.frame(names = paste0(“g”,…

Significance Large-scale meteorological and biological data demonstrate the vertical stratification of airborne biomass. The previously described diel cycle of airborne microorganisms is shown to disappear at height. Atmospheric turbulence and stratification are shown to be defining factors for the scale and boundaries, dynamics, and natural variability of airborne biomass, resulting…
