Challenge for #DataViz experts

I have an interesting dataset covering 15 years of author decisions about whether to embargo their theses, and for how long. But I'm not sure how to visualize it. Any suggestions?

Some #DataViz maps and a table on county-level population in #Wisconsin: Dane County continues to lead in growth, in absolute and relative terms. And #Milwaukee County may have reversed its trend was growing between 2023 and 2024.

On the technical side, this was my first time using the new major version of the #tmap #Rstats package. Takes some getting used to, but a lot of it makes much more sense than in the previous version. r-tmap.github.io/tmap/

@jaztrophysicist A short #dataviz for a forthcoming local communication by the regional supercomputing center CALMIP, to illustrate our recent results on the measurement of turbulent magnetic diffusion at the solar surface.

The convection turbulent velocity field at the solar photosphere, with a resolution of 2500km and a time-sampling of 15 minutes, over a consecutive time-window of 6 days, was computed on the supercomputer based on 4096^2 NASA/SDO images of the photosphere with 45seconds sampling. Images on the right represent the distribution of magnetic fields at the photospheric level of the Sun, also obtained from the SDO MDI instrument. #astrodon #fluids #turbulence #science #ComplexSystems

Updated #CDC estimates show we'd pretty much been in a JN.1.11 soup since Dec, until late March, when LP.8.1 took majority.

Data collection continues to be low priority nationally—as exactly zero regions have enough data for CDC to plot.

CDC breaks out recombinant XFC from FLiRT parent LF.7 . (Our dataviz now identifies parentage for each recombinant.) Raj's dashboard was last updated today.

Borders added! There’s a few buildings that need a touch more fabric paint, but luckily I haven’t rinsed the dye I made up yet

When quilted, this one will be called Suffragist City, a name that has utterly delighted me the whole time I worked on it

(just an aside - I know as a U.S. women’s suffrage-themed quilt this technically should have been purple and yellow, but that color combo is nails on a chalkboard for me, so 💜 and 💚 it is)

This is a chart that represents per category: how many times in a month did I get dressed? I only included months for where I had a full set of data.

We can see that, on average:
- I get dressed for "errands, walks, volunteering, etc." for about 2-3 weeks out of the month, which is decreasing.
- I get dressed to go to the gym for about 1-2 weeks out 2 weeks out of the month, which is increasing.
- I get dressed for work for a little less than 1 week out of the year, which is steady.

Note that since going on walks may include either gym clothes or outdoor clothes, I put it in the "other" category at times when I was only engaging with fitness, so the actual count of outfits only worn for fitness is higher than looking at the gym data alone. This means that outfits that might be purely for socializing, not for going on walks, are likely lower than is seen here. I also don't work out when traveling for work or family, which inflates my behavior out certain outfits relative to my daily life at home. I don't think a year is enough for me to really generalize how travel may be affecting this data.
