Understanding the Impact of Spot Market Electricity Price on Wastewater Asset Management Strategy - Phuong Do; Christopher W. K. Chow; Raufdeen Rameezdeen; Nima Gorjian (Water Conservation Science and Engineering, 2022)
Development of an advanced pumping control scheme is one of the useful methods that can be applied in operational optimisation of wastewater pumps. Optimisation of pumping control can benefit the utility by overall cost saving using different electricity pricing schemes from the energy market. As electricity prices can be varied based on the spot market in some countries such as Australia, the consideration of operating the pumps at the most favourable electricity price, when managed correctly, can offer remarkable savings. This paper provides understanding on the electricity spot price behaviour of South Australia in the National Electricity Market (NEM). Half-hourly electricity spot price data of over 22 years from January 1999 to June 2021 were analysed to investigate the key characteristics of spot prices, including seasonality (intraday, intraweek and seasonal price patterns), spiky behaviour and occurrences of negative prices. In addition, the possible impacts of other factors on electricity spot prices such as electricity demand and weather conditions on pump control were examined. Results indicate a strong relationship between electricity demand and spot price with the Pearson correlation coefficient up to R = 0.95, and extreme high spot prices tended to occur on scorching days with the maximum temperature above 35 °C when air-conditioner usage was high. This paper also explains the importance of electricity spot prices in the wastewater pump on/off operations and analyses opportunities for cost savings by including electricity spot price forecasts as an input of the smart controller to enhance the efficiency of the real-time pumping control.

Obiweluozor; In-Seok Jeong (Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine, 2022)
Background: We have designed a reinforced drug-loaded vascular graft composed of polycaprolactone (PCL) and polydioxanone (PDO) via a combination of electrospinning/3D printing approaches. To evaluate its potential for clinical application, we compared the in vivo blood compatibility and performance of PCL/PDO + 10%DY grafts doped with an antithrombotic drug (dipyridamole) with a commercial expanded polytetrafluoroethylene ( e -PTFE) graft in a porcine model. Methods: A total of 10 pigs (weight: 25–35 kg) were used in this study. We made a new 5-mm graft with PCL/PDO composite nanofiber via the electrospinning technique. We simultaneously implanted a commercially available e -PTFE graft ( n = 5) and our PCL/PDO + 10%DY graft ( n = 5) into the carotid arteries of the pigs. No anticoagulant/antiplatelet agent was administered during the follow-up period, and ultrasonography was performed weekly to confirm the patency of the two grafts in vivo . Four weeks later, we explanted and compared the performance of the two grafts by histological analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results: No complications, such as sweating on the graft or significant bleeding from the needle hole site, were seen in the PCL/PDO + 10%DY graft immediately after implantation. Serial ultrasonographic examination and immunohistochemical analysis demonstrated that PCL/PDO + 10%DY grafts showed normal physiological blood flow and minimal lumen reduction, and pulsed synchronously with the native artery at 4 weeks after implantation. However, all e -PTFE grafts occluded within the study period. The luminal surface of the PCL/PDO + 10%DY graft in the transitional zone was fully covered with endothelial cells as observed by SEM. Conclusion: The PCL/PDO + 10%DY graft was well tolerated, and no adverse tissue reaction was observed in porcine carotid models during the short-term follow-up. Colonization of the graft by host endothelial and smooth muscle cells coupled with substantial extracellular matrix production marked the regenerative capability. Thus, this material may be an ideal substitute for vascular reconstruction and bypass surgeries. Long-term observations will be necessary to determine the anti-thrombotic and remodeling potential of this device.

MAMMALS IN PORTUGAL : A data set of terrestrial, volant, and marine mammal occurrences in P ortugal - Clara Grilo; Beatriz C. Afonso; Filipe Afonso; Marta Alexandre; Sara Aliácar; Ana Almeida; Ivan Prego Alonso; Francisco Álvares; Paulo Alves; Paulo Célio Alves; Pedro Alves; Anabela Amado; et al. (Ecology, 2022)
Mammals are threatened worldwide, with ~26% of all species being included in the IUCN threatened categories. This overall pattern is primarily associated with habitat loss or degradation, and human persecution for terrestrial mammals, and pollution, open net fishing, climate change, and prey depletion for marine mammals. Mammals play a key role in maintaining ecosystems functionality and resilience, and therefore information on their distribution is crucial to delineate and support conservation actions. MAMMALS IN PORTUGAL is a publicly available data set compiling unpublished georeferenced occurrence records of 92 terrestrial, volant, and marine mammals in mainland Portugal and archipelagos of the Azores and Madeira that includes 105,026 data entries between 1873 and 2021 (72% of the data occurring in 2000 and 2021). The methods used to collect the data were: live observations/captures (43%), sign surveys (35%), camera trapping (16%), bioacoustics surveys (4%) and radiotracking, and inquiries that represent less than 1% of the records. The data set includes 13 types of records: (1) burrows | soil mounds | tunnel, (2) capture, (3) colony, (4) dead animal | hair | skulls | jaws, (5) genetic confirmation, (6) inquiries, (7) observation of live animal (8), observation in shelters, (9) photo trapping | video, (10) predators diet | pellets | pine cones/nuts, (11) scat | track | ditch, (12) telemetry and (13) vocalization | echolocation. The spatial uncertainty of most records ranges between 0 and 100 m (76%). Rodentia ( n =31,573) has the highest number of records followed by Chiroptera ( n = 18,857), Carnivora ( n = 18,594), Lagomorpha ( n = 17,496), Cetartiodactyla ( n = 11,568) and Eulipotyphla ( n = 7008). The data set includes records of species classified by the IUCN as threatened (e.g., Oryctolagus cuniculus [ n = 12,159], Monachus monachus [ n = 1,512], and Lynx pardinus [ n = 197]). We believe that this data set may stimulate the publication of other European countries data sets that would certainly contribute to ecology and conservation‐related research, and therefore assisting on the development of more accurate and tailored conservation management strategies for each species.

Mercurial Contamination: A Consumer Health Risk Assessment Concerning Seafood From a Eutrophic Estuary in Southeastern Brazil - Paloma de Almeida Rodrigues; Rafaela Gomes Ferrari; Denes Kaic Alves do Rosário; Rachel Ann Hauser-Davis; Luciano Neves dos Santos; Carlos Adam Conte-Junior (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Mercury (Hg) contamination has increased in the last decades, resulting in human consumption concerns mainly in developing countries. In this context, this study aimed to carry out a health risk assessment regarding the consumption of swimming crabs, shrimp and squid species caught in different regions of the Guanabara Bay, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. For this purpose, we used calculations that indicated the Estimated Monthly Intake (EMI), Maximum Monthly Intake Rate (IRmm) and Hazard Quotient (HQ). As the target population, the mean weight corresponding to men and women children aged 12 years, young people aged 24 years, and middle-aged people (adults) aged 54 years were used, taking into account the female and male gender. In the studied seafood, the EMI (0.0001 to 0.0006 mg.kg.month -1 ) was below the monthly intake limit and IRmm (10.3 to 34.8 kg month -1 ) indicates that large quantities of seafood can be consumed by the population studied, unless the safe limit of monthly intake of the contaminant is reached. The hazard quotient (0.4 to 1.4) indicate potential risks health of children eating swimming crabs and squid and young women eating swimming crabs. Our study also highlights the importance of risk assessments, as even when seafood contains Hg concentrations below established limits, consumption variables must be taken into account, so as not to underestimate the potential health risks.

Non-farm employment, natural resource extraction, and poverty: evidence from household data for rural Vietnam - Manh Hung Do; Trung Thanh Nguyen; George Halkos; Ulrike Grote (Environment, Development and Sustainability, 2022)
Natural resources are important in sustaining the livelihoods of rural households and the environment. However, over-exploitation is causing an alarming depletion of natural resources in many developing countries. At the same time, rapid economic growth has created non-farm employment opportunities for local people. In this context, examining the interrelationship between non-farm employment and natural resource extraction provides useful information for reducing resource extraction and improving rural households’ welfare. In this study, we use a dataset of 1780 identical households from three survey waves undertaken in 2010, 2013, and 2016 in Vietnam to (i) identify the determinants of rural households’ participation in non-farm activities, (ii) examine the interrelationship between non-farm employment and natural resource extraction, and (iii) investigate the impact of non-farm employment on rural households’ welfare. The findings from pooled sample estimations reveal that (i) cable internet at home and rural road quality positively affect households’ decisions to participate in non-farm employment; (ii) non-farm income and income from natural resource extraction have a negative association; and (iii) non-farm income significantly contributes to poverty reduction in both relative and absolute terms. Our findings suggest that improved provision of non-farm opportunities and increased investment in infrastructure and telecommunication are needed to improve rural households’ welfare and consequently reduce their natural resource exploitation.

Utilization of Fishery-Processing By-Product Squid Pens for Scale-Up Production of Phenazines via Microbial Conversion and Its Novel Potential Antinematode Effect - Thi Nguyen; San-Lang Wang; Thi Nguyen; Manh Doan; Thi Tran; Van Ngo; Nhat Ho; Thi Tran; Chien Doan; Van Do; Anh Nguyen; Van Nguyen (Fishes, 2022)
Fishery by-products (FBPs) have been increasingly investigated for the extraction and production of a vast array of active molecules. The aim of this study was to produce phenazine compounds from FBPs via microbial fermentation and assess their novel antinematode effect. Among various FBPs, squid pen powder (SPP) was discovered as the most suitable substrate for phenazine production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa TUN03 fermentation. Various small-scale experiments conducted in flasks for phenazine production indicated that the most suitable was the newly designed liquid medium which included 1% SPP, 0.05% MgSO4, and 0.1% Ca3(PO4)2 (initial pH 7). Phenazines were further studied for scale-up bioproduction in a 14 L bioreactor system resulting in a high yield (22.73 µg/mL) in a much shorter cultivation time (12 h). In the fermented culture broth, hemi-pyocyanin (HPC) was detected as a major phenazine compound with an area percentage of 11.28% in the crude sample. In the bioactivity tests, crude phenazines and HPC demonstrate novel potential nematicidal activity against black pepper nematodes, inhibiting both juveniles (J2) nematodes and egg hatching. The results of this work suggest a novel use of SPP for cost-effective bioproduction of HPC, a novel potential nematodes inhibitor. Moreover, the combination of MgSO4 and Ca3(PO4)2 was also found to be a novel salt composition that significantly enhanced phenazine yield by P. aeruginosa fermentation in this work.

Potential Impact of Late 1980s Regime Shift on the Collapse of Walleye Pollock Catch in the Western East/Japan Sea - Yong-Yub Kim; Yu-Kyeong Kang; Seung-Tae Lee; Hae Kun Jung; Chung Il Lee; Sangil Kim; Kwang Young Jeong; Do-Seong Byun; Yang-Ki Cho (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Walleye pollock ( Gadus chalcogramma ) caught in the Korean fishing area dramatically decreased in the late 1980s. To investigate the potential impact of the late 1980s climate regime shift on the collapse of the pollock catch, we developed a three-dimensional hydrodynamic model with data assimilation and a particle tracking model. Data-assimilated reanalysis showed that sea surface temperature increased by approximately 2°C in the spawning area of pollock in the late 1980s. The suitable spawning area in the East Korean Bay decreased due to warming in the late 1980s. Spawned eggs of walleye pollock were tracked using a particle tracking model for 30 days in January and February during 1983–1992. The number of individuals transported to the nursery within the Korean fishing area from the spawning area was reduced by 74% in the late 1980s. The intensified East Korean Warm Current (EKWC) could be responsible for the decreased number of individuals transported to the southern area in the late 1980s. Warming in the Korean fishing area could also cause a decrease in pollock. These oceanic changes might be linked to climate regime shifts in the late 1980s. The warming regime with positive Arctic Oscillation and weakened monsoon intensified the northward flow of the EKWC and accelerated the warming of the spawning and fishing areas in the late 1980s.

Monthly Streamflow Modeling Based on Self-Organizing Maps and Satellite-Estimated Rainfall Data - Thiago Victor Medeiros do Nascimento; Celso Augusto Guimarães Santos; Camilo Allyson Simões de Farias; Richarde Marques da Silva (Water Resources Management, 2022)
Hydrological data provide valuable information for the decision-making process in water resources management, where long and complete time series are always desired. However, it is common to deal with missing data when working on streamflow time series. Rainfall-streamflow modeling is an alternative to overcome such a difficulty. In this paper, self-organizing maps (SOM) were developed to simulate monthly inflows to a reservoir based on satellite-estimated gridded precipitation time series. Three different calibration datasets from Três Marias Reservoir, composed of inflows (targets) and 91 TRMM-estimated rainfall data (inputs), from 1998 to 2019, were used. The results showed that the inflow data homogeneity pattern influenced the rainfall-streamflow modeling. The models generally showed superior performance during the calibration phase, whereas the outcomes varied depending on the data homogeneity pattern and the chosen SOM structure in the testing phase. Regardless of the input data homogeneity, the SOM networks showed excellent results for the rainfall-runoff modeling, presenting Nash–Sutcliffe coefficients greater than 0.90. Graphical Abstract

Modelling the Darcy–Weisbach friction factor and the energy gradient of the lateral line* - Alexandre Maniçoba da Rosa Ferraz Jardim; José Raliuson Inácio Silva; Marcos Vinícius da Silva; Luciana Sandra Bastos de Souza; George do Nascimento Araújo Júnior; Hygor Kristoph Muniz Nunes Alves; Márcio Mesquita; Paulo Jorge de Oliveira Ponte de Souza; Antônio Heriberto de Castro Teixeira; Thieres George Freire da Silva (Irrigation and Drainage, 2022)
The objective was to adjust explicit mathematical models to determine the friction factor ( f ). Besides, an adaptation of the Blasius model is presented and an application of the Darcy–Weisbach equation to estimate the energy loss along the lateral line for four types of microsprinklers. f was determined by the model of Offor and Alabi and the model of Blasius for velocities between 0.5 to 3.0 m s −1 and internal pipe diameters of 0.0130, 0.0161, 0.0206, 0.0270, 0.0288, and 0.0368 m. The friction factor determined by Offor and Alabi was associated with the pipe diameters utilizing regression, and based on that an adaptation to the Blasius model was proposed. From the results of f , the energy and flow gradient along the lateral line for four NaanDanJain microsprinklers was simulated. The models of Offor and Alabi, Blasius, and Adapted Blasius showed excellent precision in determining f . The results of unit head loss, determined by the three mathematical models, showed dispersion close to zero among the pairs, showing a high correlation between the models ( R 2 = 0.99). The Blasius equation is the most suitable to be inserted into the Darcy–Weisbach model to determine the maximum length of the lateral line.

Early Immune Modulation in European Seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) Juveniles in Response to Betanodavirus Infection - Mariana Vaz; Damiana Pires; Pedro Pires; Marco Simões; Ana Pombo; Paulo Santos; Beatriz do Carmo; Ricardo Passos; Janina Z. Costa; Kim D. Thompson; Teresa Baptista (Fishes, 2022)
The early host–pathogen interaction between European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) and Betanodavirus was examined by using juvenile fish infected intramuscularly with RGNNV (red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus). The time course selected for sampling (0–144 h post-infection (hpi)) covered the early stages of infection, with hematological, antioxidant and immunological responses examined. Early activation of the host’s immune system was seen in the first few hours post-infection (6 to 9 hpi), as evidenced by an increase in tnfα, cd28 and c3 expression in the head kidney of infected fish. Most hematological parameters that were examined showed significant differences between sampling times, including differences in the number of thrombocytes and various leukocyte populations. The plasma lysozyme concentration decreased significantly over the course of the trial, and most antioxidant parameters examined in the liver showed significant differences over the infection period. At 144 hpi, peak expression of tnfα and il-1β coincided with the appearance of disease symptoms, peak levels of virus in the brain and high levels of fish mortality. The results of the study show the importance of analyzing the early interactions between European seabass and Betanodavirus to establish early indicators of infection to prevent more severe outcomes of the infection from occurring.

Creative, embodied practices, and the potentialities for sustainability transformations - Julia Bentz; Letícia do Carmo; Nicole Schafenacker; Jörn Schirok; Sara Dal Corso (Sustainability Science, 2022)
This paper argues for an integrative approach to sustainability transformations, one that reconnects body and mind, that fuses art and science and that integrates diverse forms of knowledge in an open, collaborative and creative way. It responds to scholarship emphasizing the importance of connecting disparate ways of knowing, including scientific, artistic, embodied and local knowledges to better understand environmental change and to foster community resilience and engagement. This paper draws on the experience of an arts-based project in Lisbon, Portugal, and explores embodied and performative practices and their potential for climate change transformations. It puts forward and enlivens an example, where such forms of engaging communities can provide new insight into how equitable, just and sustainable transformations can come about. The process involved a series of interactive workshops with diverse arts-based methods and embodied practices to create performative material. From this process, a space emerged for the creation of meaning about climate change. Three key elements stood out in this process as being potentially important for the emergence of meaning-making and for understanding the impact of the project: the use of metaphors, embedding the project locally, and the use of creative, embodied practices. This furthers research, suggesting that the arts can play a critical role in engaging people with new perspectives on climate change and sustainability issues by offering opportunities for critical reflection and providing spaces for creative imagination and experimentation. Such processes may be important for contributing to the changes needed to realize transformations to sustainability.

When tropical and subtropical congeners met: Multiple ancient hybridization events within Eriobotrya in the Yunnan‐Guizhou Plateau, a tropical‐subtropical transition area in China - Sufang Chen; Richard Milne; Renchao Zhou; Kaikai Meng; Qianyi Yin; Wei Guo; Yongpeng Ma; Kangshan Mao; Kewang Xu; Young‐Dong Kim; Truong Van Do; Wenbo Liao; et al. (Molecular Ecology, 2022)
Global climate changes during the Miocene may have created ample opportunities for hybridization between members of tropical and subtropical biomes at the boundary between these zones. Yet, very few studies have explored this possibility. The Yunnan‐Guizhou Plateau (YGP) in Southwest China is a biodiversity hotspot for vascular plants, located in a transitional area between the floristic regions of tropical Southeast Asia and subtropical East Asia. The genus Eriobotrya (Rosaceae) comprises both tropical and subtropical taxa, with 12 species recorded in the YGP, making it a suitable basis for testing the hypothesis of between‐biome hybridization. Therefore, we surveyed the evolutionary history of Eriobotrya by examining three chloroplast regions and five nuclear genes for 817 individuals (47 populations) of 23 Eriobotrya species (including 19 populations of 12 species in the YGP), plus genome re‐sequencing of 33 representative samples. We concluded that: (1) phylogenetic positions for 16 species exhibited strong cytonuclear conflicts, most probably due to ancient hybridization; (2) the YGP is a hotspot for hybridization, with 11 species showing clear evidence of chloroplast capture; and (3) Eriobotrya probably originated in tropical Asia during the Eocene. From the Miocene onwards, the intensification of the Eastern Asia monsoon and global cooling may have shifted the tropical‐subtropical boundary and caused secondary contact between species, thus providing ample opportunity for hybridization and diversification of Eriobotrya , especially in the YGP. Our study highlights the significant role that paleoclimate changes probably played in driving hybridization and generating rich species diversity in climate transition zones.

Determination of Long-Term (1993–2019) Sea Level Rise Trends Around the Korean Peninsula Using Ocean Tide-Corrected, Multi-Mission Satellite Altimetry Data - KyungJae Lee; SungHyun Nam; Yang-Ki Cho; Kwang-Young Jeong; Do-Seong Byun (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
It is vital to improve estimations of long-term trends in global and regional sea level rise to help mitigate and adapt to climate change. Satellite altimetry data have been widely used for this purpose; however, data collected in regions with strong tidalmotions often suffer from significant aliasing effects unless they are sufficiently corrected using accurate ocean tide models.Long-term trends estimated from altimetry data are often also considerably affected by regional circulation changes, and by artificial effects arising from inconsistencies between different satellite missions. Here, we focused on two regions with high (>5 mm⋅yr –1 ) rates of long-term linear trend in sea level rise (LTSLR) around the Korean Peninsula (KP). We addressed the impacts of tidal correction and mission inconsistency in satellite altimetry data, and discussed the potential impacts of circulation changes on LTSLR. Because the LTSLR estimation is affected by the aliasing effects of altimetry data when the tidal motions are not corrected sufficiently, yet the correction depends on the performance of ocean tide models, we employed eight ocean tide models to correct altimetry data for comparison and validated the results against observations from 13 tide gauge (TG) stations around the KP. We also estimated LTSLR from 1993 to 2019 using annual mean sea level anomalies (SLAs) from two satellite (two-sat) and all 21 satellite (all-sat) missions, with corrections for ocean tides. The TPXO9 model showed the most reasonable spatial LTSLR rate pattern (∼3 mm⋅yr –1 ), with the smallest difference from TG observations. It performed best near the west coast where the tidal range was the largest and when using two-sat data, because of inconsistencies in all-sat altimetry data. In contrast, off the east coast, where the impact of tidal correction is negligible, the high (∼7 mm⋅yr –1 ) LTSLR rates were robust regardless of ocean tide models and altimetry missions, potentially driven by long-term changes in regional circulation. Our results highlight the importance of tidal correction and mission inconsistency for improving LTSLR estimations around the KP. They also have significant implications for determining regional sea level rise under changing circulation patterns, within and beyond the region.

Bacterial Communities in Coral Offspring Vary Between in situ and ex situ Spawning Environments - Jia-Ho Shiu; Che-Hung Lin; Aziz Jabir Mulla; Viet Do Hung Dang; Chia-Ling Fong; Yoko Nozawa (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Examining the bacterial communities of offspring is key to understanding the establishment of coral-bacteria associations. Although high sensitivity to the environment is expected, previous studies have only examined bacterial communities of coral offspring in ex situ (laboratory) environments, not in in situ (field) environments. Here, we examined and compared the effect of ex situ and in situ environments on bacterial communities of newly released offspring (eggs and larvae) and their maternal colonies in two phylogenetically distant coral species with different reproductive modes: Dipsastraea speciosa (Scleractinia; spawner) and Heliopora coerulea (Octocorallia; brooder). Our results demonstrated that the spawning environments do not affect the bacterial composition in maternal colonies, but influence that of the offspring (eggs of D. speciosa and larvae of H. coerulea ). Dominant bacterial operational taxonomic units (OTUs) varied between in situ and ex situ environments in the eggs of D. speciosa . The composition of bacterial communities among larvae of H. coerulea samples was more diverse in in situ environments than in ex situ environments. This study provides the first information on in situ bacterial communities in coral eggs and larvae and highlights their sensitivities to the local environment. Future studies must take into consideration the influence of ex situ environments on bacterial communities in coral offspring.

Elderly patients have increased susceptibility to acute kidney injury (AKI). Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNA) are key regulators of cellular processes, and have been implicated in both aging and AKI. Our aim was to study the effects of aging and ischemia–reperfusion injury (IRI) on the renal expression of lncRNAs. Adult and old (10- and 26–30-month-old) C57BL/6 N mice were subjected to unilateral IRI followed by 7 days of reperfusion. Renal expression of 90 lncRNAs and mRNA expression of injury, regeneration, and fibrosis markers was measured by qPCR in the injured and contralateral control kidneys. Tubular injury, regeneration, and fibrosis were assessed by histology. Urinary lipocalin-2 excretion was increased in old mice prior to IRI, but plasma urea was similar. In the control kidneys of old mice tubular cell necrosis and apoptosis, mRNA expression of kidney injury molecule-1, fibronectin-1, p16, and p21 was elevated. IRI increased plasma urea concentration only in old mice, but injury, regeneration, and fibrosis scores and their mRNA markers were similar in both age groups. AK082072 and Y lncRNAs were upregulated, while H19 and RepA transcript were downregulated in the control kidneys of old mice. IRI upregulated Miat, Igf2as, SNHG5, SNHG6, RNCR3, Malat1, Air, Linc1633, and Neat1 v1, while downregulated Linc1242. LncRNAs H19, AK082072, RepA transcript, and Six3os were influenced by both aging and IRI. Our results indicate that both aging and IRI alter renal lncRNA expression suggesting that lncRNAs have a versatile and complex role in aging and kidney injury. An Ingenuity Pathway Analysis highlighted that the most downregulated H19 may be linked to aging/senescence through p53.

Global freshwater biodiversity is declining dramatically, and meeting the challenges of this crisis requires bold goals and the mobilisation of substantial resources. While the reasons are varied, investments in both research and conservation of freshwater biodiversity lag far behind those in the terrestrial and marine realms. Inspired by a global consultation, we identify 15 pressing priority needs, grouped into five research areas, in an effort to support informed stewardship of freshwater biodiversity. The proposed agenda aims to advance freshwater biodiversity research globally as a critical step in improving coordinated actions towards its sustainable management and conservation.

ATLANTIC ANTS: a data set of ants in Atlantic Forests of South America - Rogério R. Silva; Felipe Martello; Rodrigo Machado Feitosa; Otávio Guilherme M. Silva; Lívia Pires do Prado; Carlos Roberto F. Brandão; Emília Zoppas de Albuquerque; Maria Santina C. Morini; Jacques Hubert Charles Delabie; Erison Carlos dos Santos Monteiro; Agripino Emanuel Oliveira Alves; Alexander L. Wild; et al. (Ecology, 2022)
Ants, an ecologically successful and numerically dominant group of animals, play key ecological roles as soil engineers, predators, nutrient recyclers, and regulators of plant growth and reproduction in most terrestrial ecosystems. Further, ants are widely used as bioindicators of the ecological impact of land use. We gathered information of ant species in the Atlantic Forest of South America. The ATLANTIC ANTS data set, which is part of the ATLANTIC SERIES data papers, is a compilation of ant records from collections (18,713 records), unpublished data (29,651 records), and published sources (106,910 records; 1,059 references), including papers, theses, dissertations, and book chapters published from 1886 to 2020. In total, the data set contains 153,818 ant records from 7,636 study locations in the Atlantic Forest, representing 10 subfamilies, 99 genera, 1,114 ant species identified with updated taxonomic certainty, and 2,235 morphospecies codes. Our data set reflects the heterogeneity in ant records, which include ants sampled at the beginning of the taxonomic history of myrmecology (the 19th and 20th centuries) and more recent ant surveys designed to address specific questions in ecology and biology. The data set can be used by researchers to develop strategies to deal with different macroecological and region‐wide questions, focusing on assemblages, species occurrences, and distribution patterns. Furthermore, the data can be used to assess the consequences of changes in land use in the Atlantic Forest on different ecological processes. No copyright restrictions apply to the use of this data set, but we request that authors cite this data paper when using these data in publications or teaching events.

High-Resolution Vertical Observations of Phytoplankton Groups Derived From an in-situ Fluorometer in the East China Sea and Tsushima Strait - Qian Xu; Shengqiang Wang; Chiho Sukigara; Joaquim I. Goes; Helga do Rosario Gomes; Takeshi Matsuno; Yuanli Zhu; Yongjiu Xu; Jutarak Luang-on; Yuji Watanabe; Sinjae Yoo; Joji Ishizaka (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Vertical distribution of phytoplankton composition in the East China Sea (ECS) and Tsushima Strait (TS) was highly variable in the region where the Changjiang River diluted water (CDW), Kuroshio water (KW), and Tsushima water (TW) intersected. An in-situ multiple excitation fluorometer was used to obtain the high-resolution phytoplankton groups data from every meter of the water column. Sharp differences were noted in the distribution of phytoplankton groups in the CDW, KW, and TW. In the CDW, brown algae were generally present ~60% of all depths with exception of subsurface chlorophyll- a maximum (SCM), whereas cyanobacteria (>40%) and green algae plus cryptophytes (>40%) were found above and below the SCM, respectively. In TW, where chlorophyll a (CHL) was lower than in the CDW, brown algae predominated the water column (>60%) and SCM (>80%), except the surface layer where cyanobacteria dominated. In KW, a high fraction of cyanobacteria (>40%) extended up to 40 m, while brown and green algae dominated (>60%) the deeper waters below 40 m at western and eastern stations, respectively. These results can be further related to water property and nutrient concentration of the water masses in each region. This new data show that the in-situ multiple excitation fluorometer can be a powerful tool to estimate high-resolution vertical profiles of phytoplankton groups on a large scale in marine environments.

Estimation of Wave-Breaking Index by Learning Nonlinear Relation Using Multilayer Neural Network - Miyoung Yun; Jinah Kim; Kideok Do (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Estimating wave-breaking indexes such as wave height and water depth is essential to understanding the location and scale of the breaking wave. Therefore, numerous wave-flume laboratory experiments have been conducted to develop empirical wave-breaking formulas. However, the nonlinearity between the parameters has not been fully incorporated into the empirical equations. Thus, this study proposes a multilayer neural network utilizing the nonlinear activation function and backpropagation to extract nonlinear relationships. Existing laboratory experiment data for the monochromatic regular wave are used to train the proposed network. Specifically, the bottom slope, deep-water wave height and wave period are plugged in as the input values that simultaneously estimate the breaking-wave height and wave-breaking location. Typical empirical equations employ deep-water wave height and length as input variables to predict the breaking-wave height and water depth. A newly proposed model directly utilizes breaking-wave height and water depth without nondimensionalization. Thus, the applicability can be significantly improved. The estimated wave-breaking index is statistically verified using the bias, root-mean-square errors, and Pearson correlation coefficient. The performance of the proposed model is better than existing breaking-wave-index formulas as well as having robust applicability to laboratory experiment conditions, such as wave condition, bottom slope, and experimental scale.

Local Sea-Level Rise Caused by Climate Change in the Northwest Pacific Marginal Seas Using Dynamical Downscaling - Yong-Yub Kim; Bong-Gwan Kim; Kwang Young Jeong; Eunil Lee; Do-Seong Byun; Yang-Ki Cho (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Global climate models (GCMs) have limited capacity in simulating spatially non-uniform sea-level rise owing to their coarse resolutions and absence of tides in the marginal seas. Here, regional ocean climate models (RCMs) that consider tides were used to address these limitations in the Northwest Pacific marginal seas through dynamical downscaling. Four GCMs that drive the RCMs were selected based on a performance evaluation along the RCM boundaries, and the latter were validated by comparing historical results with observations. High-resolution (1/20°) RCMs were used to project non-uniform changes in the sea-level under intermediate (RCP 4.5) and high-end emissions (RCP 8.5) scenarios from 2006 to 2100. The predicted local sea-level rise was higher in the East/Japan Sea (EJS), where the currents and eddy motions were active. The tidal amplitude changes in response to sea-level rise were significant in the shallow areas of the Yellow Sea (YS). Dynamically downscaled simulations enabled the determination of practical sea-level rise (PSLR), including changes in tidal amplitude and natural variability. Under RCP 8.5 scenario, the maximum PSLR was ∼85 cm in the YS and East China Sea (ECS), and ∼78 cm in the EJS. The contribution of natural sea-level variability changes in the EJS was greater than that in the YS and ECS, whereas changes in the tidal contribution were higher in the YS and ECS. Accordingly, high-resolution RCMs provided spatially different PSLR estimates, indicating the importance of improving model resolution for local sea-level projections in marginal seas.

Rural landscapes and agrarian spaces under soybean expansion dynamics: a case study of the Santarém region, Brazilian Amazonia - Andréa Coelho; Ana Aguiar; Peter Toledo; Roberto Araújo; Otávio do Canto; Ricardo Folhes; Marcos Adami (Regional Environmental Change, 2021)
Following the boom of soybean production from 2000 to 2006 in the Santarém region of the Brazilian Amazon, the mechanized agricultural area remained stable, unlike other regions. Deforestation was controlled, but this initial expansion led to the restructuring of the agrarian space in the region. Given this scenario, we aimed to understand the mechanized agricultural expansion effects in the region by comparing the periods 1999–2007 and 2007–2015. Our hypothesis was that it impacted heterogeneous actors and land tenure categories. We combined multi-temporal land change maps derived from remote sensing to land tenure information to evaluate how land change transitions differed over time, both in public (traditional and sustainable use official settlements) and private areas. In private areas, we observed a 12% reduction in forest cover in 1999–2007 and a 2.5% reduction in 2007–2015. In sustainable use settlements, forest loss was only 3% and 2% in each period, respectively. Mechanized agriculture occupied areas of family farming (42%), secondary vegetation (20%), pasture (20%), and forest areas (18%). Family farming lost most of the area to other uses. Within settlements, the area of family farming increased by 50% at the expense of the forest area. We conclude that the rise and fall of deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon hide multiple social and territorial processes. Understanding such dynamics is critical for establishing measures toward a sustainable future.

Comparison of non-coplanar optimization of static beams and arc trajectories for intensity-modulated treatments of meningioma cases - Tiago Ventura; Humberto Rocha; Brigida da Costa Ferreira; Joana Dias; Maria do Carmo Lopes (Physical and Engineering Sciences in Medicine, 2021)
Two methods for non-coplanar beam direction optimization, one for static beams and another for arc trajectories, were proposed for intracranial tumours. The results of the beam angle optimizations were compared with the beam directions used in the clinical plans. Ten meningioma cases already treated were selected for this retrospective planning study. Algorithms for non-coplanar beam angle optimization (BAO) and arc trajectory optimization (ATO) were used to generate the corresponding plans. A plan quality score, calculated by a graphical method for plan assessment and comparison, was used to guide the beam angle optimization process. For each patient, the clinical plans (CLIN), created with the static beam orientations used for treatment, and coplanar VMAT approximated plans (VMAT) were also generated. To make fair plan comparisons, all plan optimizations were performed in an automated multicriteria calculation engine and the dosimetric plan quality was assessed. BAO and ATO plans presented, on average, moderate global plan score improvements over VMAT and CLIN plans. Nevertheless, while BAO and CLIN plans assured a more efficient OARs sparing, the ATO and VMAT plans presented a higher coverage and conformity of the PTV. Globally, all plans presented high-quality dose distributions. No statistically significant quality differences were found, on average, between BAO, ATO and CLIN plans. However, automated plan solution optimizations (BAO or ATO) may improve plan generation efficiency and standardization. In some individual patients, plan quality improvements were achieved with ATO plans, demonstrating the possible benefits of this automated optimized delivery technique.

Covariance Generalized Linear Models: An Approach for Quantifying Uncertainty in Tree Stem Taper Modeling - Luan Demarco Fiorentin; Wagner Hugo Bonat; Allan Libanio Pelissari; Sebastião do Amaral Machado; Saulo Jorge Téo (Forest Science, 2021)
A natural dependence among diameters measured within-tree is expected in taper data due to the hierarchical structure. The aim of this paper was to introduce the covariance generalized linear model (CGLM) framework in the context of forest biometrics for Pinus taeda stem form modeling. The CGLMs are based on marginal specification, which requires a definition of the mean and covariance components. The tree stem mean profiles were modeled by a nonlinear segmented model. The covariance matrix was built considering four strategies of linear combinations of known matrices, which expressed the variance or correlations among observations. The first strategy modeled only the variance of the diameters over the stem as a function of covariates, the second modeled correlation among observations, the third was defined based on a random walk model, the fourth was based on a structure similar to a mixed-effect model with a marginal specification, and the fourth was a traditional mixed-effect model. Mean squared error and bias showed that the approaches were similar for describing the mean profile for fitting and validation dataset. However, uncertainties expressed by confidence intervals of the relative diameters were significant and related to the matrix covariance structures of the CGLMs.
