Increasing atmospheric reactive nitrogen (N) deposition due to human activities could change N cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. However, the differences between the fates of deposited and are still not fully understood. Here, we investigated the fates of deposited and , respectively, via the application of 15 NH 4 NO 3 and NH 4 15 NO 3 in a temperate forest ecosystem. Results showed that at 410 days after tracer application, most was immobilized in litter layer (50 ± 2%), while a considerable amount of penetrated into 0–5 cm mineral soil (42 ± 2%), indicating that litter layer and 0–5 cm mineral soil were the major N sinks of and , respectively. Broad‐leaved trees assimilated more 15 N under NH 4 15 NO 3 treatment compared to under 15 NH 4 NO 3 treatment, indicating their preference for –N. At 410 days after tracer application, 16 ± 4% added 15 N was found in aboveground biomass under treatment, which was twice more than that under treatment (6 ± 1%). At the same time, approximately 80% added 15 N was recovered in soil and plants under both treatments, which suggested that this forest had high potential for retention of deposited N. These results provided evidence that there were great differences between the fates of deposited and , which could help us better understand the mechanisms and capability of forest ecosystems as a sink of reactive nitrogen.

Irrigation Canal Network Flow Analysis by a Hydraulic Model - Hae‐Do Kim; Jin‐Taek Kim; Won‐Ho Nam; Sun‐Joo Kim; Jin‐Yong Choi; Bo‐Sung Koh (Irrigation and Drainage, 2016)
For agricultural water management to be successfully achieved, flow analysis of irrigation canal network flows is essential to determine the proper distribution of crop water requirements and to contribute to an optimized irrigation operation and water allocation. This study developed a hydraulic analysis model for irrigation canal flow by using the Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) module by adding the network modelling and paddy water balance model. This model was applied to a rice paddy field rehabilitation project area in the Daesan District located in the western part of South Korea. Results obtained from the calibrated simulation model were compared with the actual measurement data from water‐level gauges at the irrigation canals. The irrigation hydraulic analysis model for canal network flow indicates the significance of using irrigation management tools in improving the analysis for accurate irrigation scheduling based on its simulation results, such as flow travel time, water level and flow amount.

Nitrogen addition affects chemical compositions of plant tissues, litter and soil organic matter - Jun Liu; Nana Wu; Hui Wang; Jianfei Sun; Bo Peng; Ping Jiang; Edith Bai (Ecology, 2016)
Increasing nitrogen (N) deposition or fertilization has been found to significantly affect carbon (C) cycling. However, a comprehensive understanding of how different C chemical components of plant, litter, and soil would respond to external N addition is still lacking. We compiled data of 1,160 observations from 52 individual studies and conducted a meta‐analysis of N addition effects on 18 variables related to C chemical compositions in terrestrial ecosystems. Results showed that plant lignin (+7.13%), plant protein (+25.94%), and soil lignin (+7.30%) were significantly increased by N addition, and plant hemicellulose (−4.39%) was significantly decreased, whereas plant fiber, plant cellulose, plant non‐structural carbohydrate ( NSC ), litter lignin, and litter cellulose were not significantly changed. The effects of N addition on C chemical composition varied among different ecosystems/plant types and different forms of N addition. Increasing treatment duration did not significantly change the effects of N addition on the chemical composition of plant, litter, and soil C. With increasing N addition rate, the effect of N addition on plant lignin, plant fiber, plant cellulose, and plant protein increased, while the effect of N addition on plant hemicellulose, plant NSC , and litter cellulose became more negative. Our meta‐analysis provided a systematic evaluation of the responses of different C chemical components to N addition in the plant–litter–soil continuum. Results suggest that the change of plant and soil C chemical composition under N addition may be beneficial for ecosystem C sequestration and could affect ecosystem structure and function in the future.

The functional basis for species sorting theory remains elusive, especially for microbial community assembly in deep‐sea environments. Using artificial surface‐based biofilm models, our recent work revealed taxonomic succession during biofilm development in a newly defined cold seep system, the Thuwal cold seeps II, which comprises a brine pool and the adjacent normal bottom water (NBW) to form a metacommunity via the potential immigration of organisms from one patch to another. Here, we designed an experiment to investigate the effects of environmental switching between the brine pool and the NBW on biofilm assembly, which could reflect environmental filtering effects during bacterial immigration to new environments. Analyses of 16S rRNA genes of 71 biofilm samples suggested that the microbial composition of biofilms established in new environments was determined by both the source community and the incubation conditions. Moreover, a comparison of 18 metagenomes provided evidence for biofilm community assembly that was based primarily on functional features rather than taxonomic identities; metal ion resistance and amino acid metabolism were the major species sorting determinants for the succession of biofilm communities. Genome binning and pathway reconstruction of two bacterial species ( Marinobacter sp. and Oleispira sp.) further demonstrated metal ion resistance and amino acid metabolism as functional traits conferring the survival of habitat generalists in both the brine pool and NBW. The results of this study shed new light on microbial community assembly in special habitats and bridge a gap in species sorting theory.

Evolutionary history of the subnival flora of the Himalaya‐Hengduan Mountains: first insights from comparative phylogeography of four perennial herbs - Dong Luo; Ji‐Pei Yue; Wen‐Guang Sun; Bo Xu; Zhi‐Min Li; Hans Peter Comes; Hang Sun (Journal of Biogeography, 2016)
Aim The Himalaya‐Hengduan Mountain ( HHM ) biodiversity hotspot including the ‘sky islands’ of Southwest China harbour exceptional plant diversity and endemicity at subnival summits (most of them exceeding 4300 m a.s.l.). This study is the first using a comparative phylogeographical framework to gain insights into the temporal origin of this highly fragmented subnival flora, and the historical factors shaping its genetic architecture as exemplified by four perennial herbs. Location Himalaya‐Hengduan Mountains, China. Methods Based on nuclear and/or chloroplast (cp) DNA sequences for each of the four studied species, we performed AMOVA and mismatch distributional analyses to assess molecular structure, diversity and demographic history in relation to current and last glacial distributions using ecological niche modelling ( ENM ). Time‐calibrated phylogenetic reconstructions of cp DNA data were used to infer species‐specific stem and crown ages. Results Our time estimates suggest that these species originated during the Late Pliocene or early‐to‐mid Pleistocene, whereas their onset of diversification generally falls into the mid‐Pleistocene. All four species exhibited island‐like population genetic structures, with all of them showing signatures of recent population growth and/or spatial expansion based on cp DNA . By contrast, ENM indicated that species broad‐scale distributions remained fairly stable over the last glacial/post‐glacial cycle. Main conclusions The temporal origin of the four subnival HHM species is likely associated with tectonic changes in the region, while their near‐simultaneous onset of diversification during the ‘Naynayxungla Glaciation’ (0.72–0.50 Ma) could reflect initial population divergence through climate‐induced habitat fragmentation. Despite a rather stable distributional history, geographical population isolation and localized range expansion/contractions likely resulted in significant genetic structure and differentiation over the last glacial/post‐glacial cycle. Overall, the present results are strongly indicative of shared evolutionary histories and phylogeographical structures among subnival plants from the ‘sky island system’ of the HHM region.

Identification and characterization of naturally occurring DSF ‐family quorum sensing signal turnover system in the phytopathogen X anthomonas - Lian Zhou; Xing‐Yu Wang; Shuang Sun; Li‐Chao Yang; Bo‐Le Jiang; Ya‐Wen He (Environmental Microbiology, 2015)
Summary Molecules of the diffusible signal factor ( DSF )‐family are a class of quorum sensing ( QS ) signals used by the phytopathogens X anthomonas . Studies during the last decade have outlined how X anthomonas cells enter the QS phase. However, information on the mechanism underlying its exit from the QS phase is limited. RpfB has recently been reported as a fatty acyl‐ CoA ligase ( FCL ) that activates a wide range of fatty acids to their CoA esters in vitro . Here, we establish an improved quantification assay for DSF ‐family signals using liquid chromatography‐mass spectrometry in X . campestris pv. campestris ( X cc ). We first demonstrated that RpfB represents a naturally occurring DSF ‐family signal turnover system . RpfB effectively turns over DSF ‐family signals DSF and BDSF in vivo . RpfB FCL enzymatic activity is required for DSF and BDSF turnover. Deletion of rpf B slightly increased X cc virulence in the C hinese radish and overexpression of rpf B significantly decreased virulence. We further showed that the expression of rpf B is growth phase‐dependent, and its expression is significantly enhanced when X cc cells enter the stationary phase. DSF regulates rpf B expression in a concentration‐dependent manner. rpf B expression is also negatively regulated by the DSF signalling components RpfC , RpfG and C lp. The global transcription factor C lp directly binds to the AATGC ‐tgctgc‐ GCATC motif in the promoter region of rpf B to repress its expression. Finally, RpfB ‐dependent signal turnover system was detected in a wide range of bacterial species, suggesting that it is a conserved mechanism.

The interactive effects of soil transplant into colder regions and cropping on soil microbiology and biogeochemistry - Shanshan Liu; Feng Wang; Kai Xue; Bo Sun; Yuguang Zhang; Zhili He; Joy D. Van Nostrand; Jizhong Zhou; Yunfeng Yang (Environmental Microbiology, 2015)
Summary Soil transplant into warmer regions has been shown to alter soil microbiology. In contrast, little is known about the effects of soil transplant into colder regions, albeit that climate cooling has solicited attention in recent years. To address this question, we transplanted bare fallow soil over large transects from southern C hina (subtropical climate zone) to central (warm temperate climate zone) and northern C hina (cold temperate climate zone). After an adaptation period of 4 years, soil nitrogen components, microbial biomass and community structures were altered. However, the effects of soil transplant on microbial communities were dampened by maize cropping, unveiling a negative interaction between cropping and transplant. Further statistical analyses with Canonical correspondence analysis and Mantel tests unveiled annual average temperature, relative humidity, aboveground biomass, soil pH and NH 4 + ‐ N content as environmental attributes closely correlated with microbial functional structures. In addition, average abundances of amoA ‐ AOA (ammonia‐oxidizing archaea) and amoA ‐ AOB (ammonia‐oxidizing bacteria) genes were significantly ( P AOA and AOB contributed to the soil functional process of nitrification. These results suggested that the soil nitrogen cycle was intimately linked with microbial community structure, and both were subjected to disturbance by soil transplant to colder regions and plant cropping.

Soil aggregate stratification of nematodes and ammonia oxidizers affects nitrification in an acid soil - Yuji Jiang; Chen Jin; Bo Sun (Environmental Microbiology, 2014)
Summary Nitrification plays a central role in global nitrogen cycle, which is affected by interaction between soil microfauna and microorganisms. The impact of synchronized changes in nematodes and ammonia oxidizers within aggregate fractions on nitrification was investigated in an acid soil under 10‐year manure application. Nematodes, ammonia oxidizers and potential nitrification activity ( PNA ) were examined in three soil aggregate fractions under four fertilization regimes. Pyrosequencing data revealed that the dominant bacterial amoA operational taxonomic units ( OTUs ) were related to N itrosospira species, while archaeal OTUs were affiliated with N itrososphaera and N itrosotalea species. PNA was more strongly correlated with ammonia‐oxidizing bacteria ( AOB ) abundance than ammonia‐oxidizing archaea ( AOA ) abundance, although AOA were dominant in the acid soil. Plant parasites had a negative effect on AOB abundance; however, bacterivores stimulated AOB abundance and contributed more to PNA than plant parasites. Aggregate fractions exerted significant impacts on AOA abundance and AOB community composition. Total carbon content strongly affected the abundance and composition of AOA community, while soil pH primarily affected that of AOB community. Soil variables explained 62.7% and 58.1% variations, and nematode variables explained 11.7% and 19.5% variations in the AOA and AOB community composition respectively.

Larger variability, better predictability? - Bo Sun; Huijun Wang (International Journal of Climatology, 2013)
The statistical relationship between observed interannual variability and the corresponding predictability of June–July–August mean precipitation is computed and discussed, using hindcasts from the Development of a European Multimodel Ensemble System for Seasonal to Interanuual Prediction (DEMETER) project and reanalysis datasets of the Global Precipitation Climatology Project and Climatic Research Unit. It is found that there exists a globally positive correlation between the variability and predictability, being prominent in the low latitudes and less evident in the high latitudes. Although this correlation varies with modulated verification datasets, multi‐model ensembles and temporal periods, all of which are artificial factors, a significant positive correlation is found over East Asia, Australia, South America, Europe and Africa, while a negative correlation for North America, under most circumstances. Moreover, it is also found that different dynamical processes in the climate system seem to have made different contributions to building this ‘larger variability–better predictability’ relationship, possibly through enhancing the predictability over domains where there is a larger contribution to variability by the climate signals, while making an uncertain contribution to the predictability over domains that are less influenced by the signals.
