(Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Introduction Food web is an important basis for identifying trophodynamic processes, and evaluating the structural and functional characteristics of ecosystems. The trophodynamics and system function of artificial reef (AR) ecosystems have rarely been examined. Methods Stable isotope analysis was used to investigate the food web structure and functions of an artificial reef (AR) ecosystem in this study. Results and Discussion The δ13C and δ15N values of particulate organic matter (POM) in AR showed noticeable seasonal changes, and the δ13C value of POM in autumn was significantly higher than that in other seasons (p<0.05). There were no significant seasonal variations in the δ13C values of solid organic matter (SOM), and no significant difference between SOM and POM was observed except in autumn. Moreover, macroalgae did not significantly affect the δ13C values of SOM. Phytoplankton may be the primary nutrient source in the AR ecosystem. The δ13C values of most crustaceans in the AR were approximately between (-17.03 ± 0.22) ‰ – (-17.74 ± 0.07) ‰, higher than those of most fish, indicating that they may have different basal nutrient sources. The trophic level (TL) of invertebrates was between 2.00 and 3.09, and that of fish was between 2.98 and 3.66. The distribution of δ13C and TLs of crustaceans and fish showed that, except for crustaceans, bivalve shellfish and zooplankton might also be important food sources for fish in the AR ecosystem. Conclusion The δ13C and δ15N values of most species in the AR showed good continuity, indicating that they may be mainly produced from the AR ecosystem. Migratory species such as Lateolabrax japonicus and Sepiella maindroni showed higher δ13C values, indicating that they may have migrated from other sea areas. To maintain the stability of the ecosystem structure and function of the AR ecosystem, fishing activities should be carried out following the maximum sustainable yield theory. Future research needs to identify the nutritional relationship between AR and its adjacent sea areas, to depict the food web structure of the AR with higher accuracy.

Assessment of the establishment success of surfgrass Phyllospadix iwatensis from shoots in a leaf trimming method: implications for large-scale restoration - Jie Sun; Fan-Shu Luo; Guo-Xu Yu; Hong-Yu Zhang; Wen-Tao Li; Pei-Dong Zhang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Phyllospadix spp. play a crucial role in the supply of ecosystem services in rocky shores, but they have been rapidly reduced because of natural and anthropogenic causes. Since Phyllospadix spp. are attached to rocks in the surf zone with a strong hydrodynamic condition, their transplanted shoots easily disappear due to the high current velocity, resulting in the failure of transplantation. We described a leaf trimming method for transplanting shoots of surfgrass Phyllospadix iwatensis and evaluated the method’s establishment success for potential use in large-scale restoration projects. A 30-day laboratory experiment was conducted to determine the effect of leaf trimming on shoot survival, growth, and physiology. Successful establishment of new patches from shoots transplanted with the leaf trimming method was assessed through a shoot-transplanting field experiment over 15 months. The survival of P. iwatensis shoots was not significantly affected by the leaf trimming proportion of 10%–60%. The leaf elongation rate and total leaf area of the shoots exposed to 10%–50% leaf trimming reached or exceeded those of the control at the end of the laboratory experiment; however, the growth of the shoots under 60% leaf trimming was significantly lower than those under the control ( p < 0.05). The soluble sugar and starch contents of the shoots also displayed a similar trend to the growth, with the lowest values attained at 60% of leaf trimming. The survival rate of shoots exposed to 50% leaf trimming treatment was 70% after 15 months following transplantation, which was 1.23 times higher than that of shoots in the control ( p < 0.05). The shoot height in the 50% leaf trimming treatment was 1.02 times higher than that of shoots in the control at the end of the field experiment. There were no significant differences in photosynthetic pigment contents of P. iwatensis shoots between the leaf trimming treatment and the control ( p > 0.05). Our study suggested that the leaf trimming method is an efficient restoration technique for the transplantation of P. iwatensis shoots, and is potentially useful in facilitating large-scale restoration projects.

Monitoring and assessing the species diversity and abundance of marine teleost around the Yellow River estuary in June using environmental DNA - Ding Lyu; Tangyi Qian; Fan Li; Song Sun; Weiji Wang; Xiujuan Shan (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
The Yellow River estuary is an important feeding, reproduction, and development ground for a variety of marine economic species, and understanding the changes in species composition and abundance around the Yellow River estuary is of great significance. In this study, a trawl survey and seawater eDNA survey were carried out simultaneously around the Yellow River estuary with the objective of both understanding the composition of marine teleost around the Yellow River estuary and providing a reference for the application of eDNA in fishery resources surveys. The results showed that 31 species of marine teleost in total were detected using the trawl survey, and 33 species were detected using eDNA technology. The number of species detected by both methods was 21. In these 21 species, the Pearson’s correlation coefficients between their eDNA relative abundance and catch per unit effort (CPUE) were very high (0.993 for weight and 0.993 for quantity), while the Spearman’s correlation coefficients were 0.659 and 0.595, respectively. There were significant positive correlations between the biomass of specific species and their eDNA relative abundance. Species composition difference analysis based on eDNA showed that the species compositions of two low-salinity and low-water-depth survey stations were distinctly different from the others. This study not only scientifically monitors and evaluates the species diversity and abundance of teleost around the Yellow River estuary but also provides a reference for the application of eDNA in fishery resources surveys.

Study on the Relationship between Resistivity and the Physical Properties of Seafloor Sediments Based on the Deep Neural Learning Algorithm - Zhiwen Sun; Zhihan Fan; Chaoqi Zhu; Kai Li; Zhongqiang Sun; Xiaoshuai Song; Liang Xue; Hanlu Liu; Yonggang Jia (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
The occurrence of deep-sea geohazards is accompanied by dynamic changes in the physical properties of seafloor sediments. Therefore, studying the physical properties is helpful for monitoring and early warnings of deep-sea geohazards. Existing physical property inversion methods have problems regarding the poor inversion accuracy and limited application scope. To address these issues, we establish a deep learning model between the resistivity of seafloor sediment and its density, water content, and porosity. Compared with empirical formulas, the deep learning model has the advantages of a more concentrated prediction range and a higher prediction accuracy. This algorithm was applied to invert the spatial distribution characteristics and temporal variation of the seafloor sediment density, water content, and porosity in the South China Sea hydrate test area for 12 days. The study reveals that the dynamic changes in the physical properties of seafloor sediments in the South China Sea hydrate zone exhibit obvious stratification characteristics. The dynamic changes in the physical properties of seafloor sediments are mainly observed at depths of 0–0.9 m below the seafloor, and the sediment properties remain stable at depths of 0.9–1.8 m below the seafloor. This study achieves the monitoring and early warning of dynamic changes in the physical properties of seafloor sediments and provides a guarantee for the safe construction of marine engineering.

Seasonal variations of siliceous microplankton fluxes and radiolarian assemblages linked to environmental conditions in Prydz Bay polynya, Eastern Antarctica - Haifeng Zhang; Rujian Wang; Zhengbing Han; Yongming Sun; Gaojing Fan; Jun Zhao; Ji Hu; Jian Ren; Jianming Pan (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Siliceous microplankton is an effective proxy for connecting modern and past marine environments; however, radiolarians have been understudied in Prydz Bay, Eastern Antarctica. This study investigated the changes in the siliceous microbiota fluxes and radiolarian assemblages captured in a 1-year time-series sediment trap (February 2014 to February 2015, ~490 m water depth) in the polynya of Prydz Bay. The results exhibited the strong seasonality in the radiolarian assemblages and the fluxes of radiolarians, diatoms, silicoflagellates and sponge spicules, with low numbers in winter and high numbers in summer. Seasonal variations in the sea ice and plankton community were critical in these patterns. The total radiolarian flux (TRF) displayed three peaks with higher flux than the annual average TRF over the year, all of which occurred in summer. These TRF peaks were mainly driven by seasonal fluctuations of sea ice, primary productivity, grazing pressure caused by phytophagous zooplankton and resuspension of small radiolarians in the surface sediments induced by modified Circumpolar Deep Water (mCDW) intrusion onto the shelf. There were also two notable low-TRF stages, mainly related to full sea-ice coverage and high grazing pressure. Two dominant assemblages were recognized by means of Q-factor analysis. Dominant assemblage one was composed of three small-sized taxa, Antarctissa sp., Phormacantha hystrix and Plectacantha oikiskos , which could be used as a proxy for primary productivity in the Marginal Ice Zone (MIZ) in Prydz Bay. Dominant assemblage two was composed of Antarctissa strelkovi and Antarctissa denticulata , with A. strelkovi dominating. The high flux and high relative abundance of A. strelkovi marked the extension of Ice Shelf Water (ISW) to the shelf area in Prydz Bay. These findings will provide new insights and reliable proxies for modern and paleoceanographic research in the Southern Ocean.

An Intelligent Algorithm for USVs Collision Avoidance Based on Deep Reinforcement Learning Approach with Navigation Characteristics - Zhe Sun; Yunsheng Fan; Guofeng Wang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
Many achievements toward unmanned surface vehicles have been made using artificial intelligence theory to assist the decisions of the navigator. In particular, there has been rapid development in autonomous collision avoidance techniques that employ the intelligent algorithm of deep reinforcement learning. A novel USV collision avoidance algorithm based on deep reinforcement learning theory for real-time maneuvering is proposed. Many improvements toward the autonomous learning framework are carried out to improve the performance of USV collision avoidance, including prioritized experience replay, noisy network, double learning, and dueling architecture, which can significantly enhance the training effect. Additionally, considering the characteristics of the USV collision avoidance problem, two effective methods to enhance training efficiency are proposed. For better training, considering the international regulations for preventing collisions at sea and USV maneuverability, a complete and reliable USV collision avoidance training system is established, demonstrating an efficient learning process in complex encounter situations. A reward signal system in line with the USV characteristics is designed. Based on the Unity maritime virtual simulation platform, an abundant simulation environment for training and testing is designed. Through detailed analysis, verification, and comparison, the improved algorithm outperforms the pre-improved algorithm in terms of stability, average reward, rules learning, and collision avoidance effect, reducing 26.60% more accumulated course deviation and saving 1.13% more time.

Mechanical Characteristics of Fiber-Reinforced Flexible Pipe Subjected to Axial Tensile Load - Zhenwen Sun; Weiping Huang; Hailong Lu; Yufeng Bu; Yuanchao Yin; Shichao Wang; Yimeng Fan (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
Fiber-reinforced flexible pipes are subjected to large axial tension loads in deep-water applications, which may result in the excessive deformation of the pipes. Owing to the anisotropy of the composite materials, accurately describing the tensile behavior of these pipes is difficult. Theoretical, numerical, and experimental methods are employed in this study to investigate the mechanical characteristics of a glass fiber-reinforced unbonded flexible pipe under axial tensile loads. Based on the load–strain relationship of each pipe layer, analytical equations considering the effect of anisotropy and radial deformation are first proposed to calculate the axial tensile stiffness of the pipe. A detailed numerical model is established to simulate the tensile behavior of the pipe. A prototype test is performed on a 4500 mm long sample using a tensile testing machine. The leading roles of outer tensile reinforcement layers in axial tensile capacity are illustrated by the strain energy of the pipe layers obtained by the numerical model. Subsequently, a comparison analysis of the mean fiber direction strains of the selected sections are performed between numerical and experimental results, which validates the numerical model. Additionally, the stress distributions of different pipe layers are discussed based on the results of the numerical analysis. Finally, the comparison of axial tensile stiffness results validates the accuracy of the analytical model considering radial deformation. This study proposes effective theoretical and numerical models to predict the tensile behavior of a fiber-reinforced flexible pipe, which provides useful references for the design and structural analysis of these pipes.

Study Regarding the Influence of Blade Rotation Angle Deviations on the Hydraulic Pulsation Characteristics of a Mixed-Flow Pump - Yanjun Li; Danghang Sun; Fan Meng; Yunhao Zheng; Yi Zhong (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
Mixed-flow pumps with adjustable blades are widely used in municipal, agricultural, and hydropower applications. However, a limitation of adjustable blades is that the influence of the water pressure in the pump causes the rotation angle to deviate, which not only reduces the hydraulic efficiency of the pump and increases energy consumption, but it is also detrimental to the stable operation of the pump. To investigate the influence of blade rotation angle deviations (BRADs) on the hydraulic pulsation characteristics of a mixed-flow pump, in this study, a three-dimensional unsteady numerical simulation was adopted to analyze the effects of seven BRAD design schemes on the energy performance, pressure pulsation characteristics, and axial and radial forces in the impeller. When the rotation angle of a single blade deviated counterclockwise, the optimal hydraulic efficiency point of the mixed-flow pump moved toward larger flow rates, and vice versa. Unlike a situation with no BRADs, when there were BRADs, the central symmetry of the low-pressure area near the suction surface of the impeller blades was destroyed. BRADs led to increases in the pressure pulsation amplitudes at the inlet and outlet of the impeller. The dominant pressure pulsation frequencies near the shroud side at the inlet and outlet of the impeller were not affected by BRADs (both of them were equal to the blade frequency). However, the amplitude of the dominant pressure pulsation frequency at the impeller outlet and the radial force of the impeller both increased with increases in the absolute value of the deviation angle. Moreover, when the rotation angle of a single blade was only in the counterclockwise direction, the axial force of the impeller increased. This study can provide an engineering reference for the stability of mixed-flow pumps with BRADs.

Permeability of Hydrate-Bearing Sediment Formed from CO2-N2 Mixture - Nan Li; Ziyang Fan; Haoran Ma; Shuai Jia; Jingyu Kan; Changyu Sun; Shun Liu (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
CO2-N2-mixture injection can be used for the exploitation and reformation of natural gas hydrate reservoirs. The permeability evolution of sediments in the presence of CO2-N2 hydrate is very important. In current permeability tests, hydrate-bearing sediment formed from CO2-N2 gas mixture is rarely involved. In this work, hydrate-bearing sediment was formed from CO2-N2 mixtures, and a constant flow method was employed to measure the permeability of the hydrate-bearing sediments. The effects of CO2 mole fraction and hydrate saturation on the permeability were investigated. The results show that gas composition is the key factor affecting hydrate formation. Hydrate saturation increases with increasing CO2 mole fraction in the gas mixture. The presence of hydrate formed from a CO2-N2 mixture leads to a sharp permeability reduction. The higher the fraction of CO2 in the injected gas mixture, the lower the sediment’s permeability. Our measured permeability data were also compared with and fitted to prediction models. The pore-filling model underestimates the permeability of hydrate-bearing sediments formed from a CO2-N2 gas mixture. The fitted hydrate saturation index in the Masuda model is 15.35, slightly higher than the general values, which means that the formed hydrates tend to occupy the pore center, and even block the pore throat.

Provenance and paleoenvironmental significance of sediments in the Beipo seamount of the northern South China Sea during the last deglaciation - Xu Tian; Xilin Zhang; Jinli Wang; Zhilei Sun; Ming Liu; Jinhuan Zhao; Lin Zhang; Dejiang Fan; Fangjian Xu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
The sedimentary processes of seamount regions are closely related to climate change and ocean evolution. The clay minerals, grain size and 14 C ages of core SCS18-1, which was collected from the Beipo seamount in the northern South China Sea (SCS) were analyzed to discuss the provenance and paleoenvironmental conditions during the last deglaciation. The sediments of core SCS18-1 are dominated by clayey silt, which is mainly composed of illite (55.2~62.1%) and chlorite (17.1~22.5%), with subordinate kaolinite (9.5~12.6%) and smectite (7.3~15.1%). The illite chemical index and illite crystallinity indicate strong physical weathering conditions. The results of the end-member modeling algorithm (EMMA) suggest that the sediments of core SCS18-1 consist of three end-members containing EM1 (0.98 μm), EM2 (9.29 μm) and EM3 (44.19 μm), with average contents of 3%, 66% and 31%, respectively. The finest endmember represents fluvial mud, the middle and coarsest endmembers are considered fluvial fine silt and eolian dust, respectively. The mean grain size is mainly controlled by the coarser fraction EM3. Based on the clay minerals, grain size and SEM analysis, we can conclude that since the onset of the last deglaciation (16.1 ka BP), the sediments of core SCS18-1 mainly originate from fluvial input, and eolian material also contributed to the sediments. The clay mineral assemblages of core SCS18-1 are stable and originate mainly from Taiwan. Additionally, the Pearl River appears to be a secondary contributor of clay minerals. Further, the Luzon Islands only account for a small proportion. Major kaolinite and moderate illite and chlorite are thought to originate from the Pearl River, predominant illite and chlorite from Taiwan, and principal smectite from the Luzon Islands. Both the relative content of EM1+ EM2 and the illite chemical index effectively represent the variation of East Asia summer monsoon (EASM) strength. Meanwhile, the relative content of EM3 effectively represents the East Asian winter monsoon (EAWM) change. The material supply of core SCS18-1 is mainly controlled by solar radiation in the Northern Hemisphere.

Biogeographical patterns of abundant and rare bacterial biospheres in paddy soils across East Asia - Lu Luan; Guangping Shi; Guofan Zhu; Jie Zheng; Jianbo Fan; Francisco Dini‐Andreote; Bo Sun; Yuji Jiang (Environmental Microbiology, 2023)
Soil bacterial communities play fundamental roles in ecosystem functioning and often display a skewed distribution of abundant and rare taxa. So far, relatively little is known about the biogeographical patterns and mechanisms structuring the assembly of abundant and rare biospheres of soil bacterial communities. Here, we studied the geographical distribution of different bacterial sub‐communities by examining the relative influence of environmental selection and dispersal limitation on taxa distributions in paddy soils across East Asia. Our results indicated that the geographical patterns of four different bacterial sub‐communities consistently displayed significant distance–decay relationships (DDRs). In addition, we found niche breadth and dispersal rates to significantly explain differences in community assembly of abundant and rare taxa, directly affecting the strength of DDRs. While conditionally rare and abundant taxa displayed the strongest DDR due to higher environmental filtering and dispersal limitation, moderate taxa sub‐communities had the weakest DDR due to greater environmental tolerance and dispersal rate. Random forest models indicated that soil pH (9.13%–49.78%) and average annual air temperature (16.59%–46.49%) were the most important predictors of the variation in the bacterial community. This study advances our understanding of the intrinsic links between fundamental ecological processes and microbial biogeographical patterns in paddy soils.

Sounds of snapping shrimp (Alpheidae) as important input to the soundscape in the southeast China coastal sea - Zhongchang Song; Wenzhan Ou; Yingnan Su; Hongquan Li; Wenxin Fan; Shengyao Sun; Teng Wang; Xiaohui Xu; Yu Zhang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
As a biological sound source widely distributed in temperate and tropical coastal waters, snapping shrimp produce strong pulses which can serve as honest signals to indicate habitat-specific soundscape. The past decade has witnessed the growing interest in investigating the acoustical activity of snapping shrimp across many shallow waters including the coastal line of the west Pacific Ocean. It was extended to the Southeast China coastal area where snapping sounds and the associated soundscape were recorded at four sites. Customized codes incorporating bandwidth and amplitude threshold operations were developed to detect snaps from the ambient noise to estimate snap rate and extract snaps individually. The subsequent analysis suggested that snaps recorded at different sites were unanimously stronger than background noise. Sound pressure level of the snaps ranged from 150 dB to 190 dB (re 1 μPa). The characteristics of snaps, including sound pressure level, duration, peak frequency, -3dB bandwidth from different sites are examined to evaluate the variability across the sites. Though snapping pulses had peak frequencies and the -3 dB bandwidth consistently below 10 kHz, snaps had considerable energy extending to the high frequency range over 200 kHz. The analysis of the acoustic data received for 7 consecutive days at one site indicated that the snap rate corresponded to tidal level periodicity. A high tide was accompanied with a local high snap rate regardless of light but this local snap rate peak was much higher at night. The mean rate fluctuated between 2000 and 4000 snaps per minute and more snaps were recorded after sunset suggesting that snapping shrimp living in the area snapped in response to light. These data may indicate that snaps are important communication means in light-limited condition and deepen our understanding on the correlation of snapping behavior and ecological environments.

The current and future seasonal geographic distribution of largehead hairtail Trichiurus japonicus in the Beibu Gulf, South China Sea - Pengli Xiong; Youwei Xu; Mingshuai Sun; Xingxing Zhou; Peiwen Jiang; Zuozhi Chen; Jiangtao Fan (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Largehead hairtail Trichiurus japonicus is a major commercial fish species in the Beibu Gulf of the northwestern South China Sea. Despite much effort to protect the fishery resource, the current stock of T. japonicus is overexploited. As the impacts of climate change unfold globally, seasonal changes in the distribution of largehead hairtail in the Beibu Gulf have not yet been clarified. Maximum entropy model based on mixed layer depth and salinity were projected onto seasonal habitat changes of T. japonicus in the Beibu Gulf under a current scenario and three different Representative Concentration Pathways (126, 370, 585) to evaluate geographic distribution changes under the different climate-change scenarios. The current geographic distribution results showed variation with seasonality, as the wintering population shifts toward the northeast. Under each of three SSP scenarios, there is higher risk to habitat suitability in the 2090s as compared with that in the 2050s. The disadvantage to T. japonicus distribution is greatest in winter under each of the three climate change scenarios, both in the short- and long-term. Potential suitable habitat distributions have a minor range extension in Representative Concentration Pathway 370–2050 winter, but in the rest of the scenes and years they contract to south of the Beibu Gulf. The overall results indicate that seasonal differences in suitable habitat should be considered to ensure effective planning of future management strategies for T. japonicus.

Nitrogen mineralization and immobilization in surface sediments of coastal reclaimed aquaculture ecosystems - Xianbiao Lin; Genmei Lin; Yijie Zheng; Wenjing Li; Peng Guo; Shiyuan Fan; Tiantian Kong; Dongfan Tian; Dongyao Sun; Zhuo Shen (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Sediment nitrogen (N) mineralization and immobilization are two crucial processes driven by microorganisms, which may play significant roles in the regulation of water quality in aquaculture ecosystems. However, limited information is available about the quantitative importance of sedimentary N mineralization and immobilization in coastal aquaculture systems. Here, a combination of incubation experiments with a 15 N isotope dilution technique were employed, aiming to quantify N mineralization and immobilization processes in surface sediments (0–5 cm) of three types of aquaculture ecosystems (seabass, white shrimp, and green crab ponds) reclaimed within the western bank of the Pearl River Estuary. Our results showed that no significant difference in sediment N mineralization and immobilization rates, microbial abundances, and organic matter among different aquaculture types on small-scale range. Meanwhile, prolonged pond-drying significant reduced sediment N mineralization and immobilization rates, bacterial abundances, organic matter, moisture content, ferrous ion (Fe 2+ ), Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ , and ammonium (NH 4 + ), while not strongly altered sediment percentage of NH 4 + mineralized per day (PAM), relative ammonium immobilization (RAI), fungal abundances, TOC/TN, nitrate (NO 3 − ), and δ 13 C org . N mineralization and immobilization rates were both significantly related to overlying water NO 3 − , as well as sediment moisture content, bulk density, organic matter, Fe 2+ , and microbial abundances. In addition, the total mineralized and immobilized N in aquaculture surface sediments from the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area were estimated to be approximately 4.55×10 4 and 3.68×10 4 t N yr -1 , respectively. Higher N mineralization relative to N immobilized fluxes indicated that the sediment serves as an important source of eutrophication in reclaimed aquaculture system of coastal wetlands.

Ship Dynamic Positioning Output Feedback Control with Position Constraint Considering Thruster System Dynamics - Dongdong Mu; Yupei Feng; Guofeng Wang; Yunsheng Fan; Yongsheng Zhao; Xiaojie Sun (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
In order to simultaneously address the issues of ship operating area limitation, unknown time-varying disturbances, immeasurable ship speed, unknown dynamics, and input saturation, this paper investigates the position-constrained ship dynamic positioning output feedback control, taking thruster system dynamics into account. Firstly, a barrier Lyapunov function (BLF) is utilized to limit the ship position inside the dynamic positioning system’s acceptable working range and to limit the ship position error. Second, the set total disturbance, which is made up of unknown time-varying disturbances and unknown dynamics and is further handled by the control strategy, is estimated using a fixed-time extended state observer (FDESO). Additionally, the thruster system dynamics equations are incorporated into the controller design process so that the generated thrust signal varies gradually without abrupt fluctuations, in keeping with engineering realities. Furthermore, the thruster input saturation issue is dealt with using a finite-time auxiliary dynamic system. Finally, a robust control term is introduced to handle the errors generated in the controller design. The stability proof section demonstrates that the designed control strategy can cause the ship to arrive and maintain at the desired location and heading, as well as stay continuously inside the designated operating area with all signals of the closed-loop control system being consistently and eventually bounded. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed system is valid.

Response of tidal creek networks and tidal connectivity to coastal squeeze of saltmarshes in the southern Bohai Bay - Xuezhong Fan; Huamei Huang; Qinglong Zhang; Na Sun; Yangang Wang (New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 2022)
Coastal squeeze of saltmarshes (CSS) has substantially eliminated valuable intertidal habitats and worsened local tidal hydrological environment by disintegrating tidal creek networks and losing tidal connectivity (TC). In this study, we explored the process response of creek network structure and TC to CSS dynamics, taking the southern Bohai Bay of China as a case study area. With the Landsat series data and ArcGIS spatial analysis, the morphological and structural evolution of tidal creek systems were quantified by four parameters: creek order, creek length, creek branch point, and network catchment area. Also, the TC was assessed and visualised based on a geostatistical connectivity method. It was found that low‐order small creeks were more sensitive and vulnerable to CSS and the creek network would face disintegration when about 50% of the saltmarsh squeeze degree occurred, which has been observed as a crucial threshold. In the seaward direction, the CSS process has led to the continuous replacement of high TC areas by low TC areas, greatly altering the original natural TC pattern. Revealing the relationship between CSS and creek network structure and TC will allow a further understanding of the degradation of intertidal ecosystems, and will promote their ecological and hydrological restoration.

Carbon isotopic constraints on the degradation and sequestration of organic matter in river‐influenced marginal sea sediments - Wenjing Fu; Xiaomei Xu; Ellen M. Druffel; Xuchen Wang; Shuwen Sun; Chunle Luo; Hongmei Zhang; Di Fan (Limnology and Oceanography, 2022)
Organic matter degradation and sequestration in marine sediments are important processes involved in carbon cycling in the ocean. Here, we present the results of carbon isotope ( 14 C and 13 C) and concentration measurements of sedimentary organic carbon (SOC), pore‐water dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) in sediments collected from the East China Sea, Yellow/Bohai Sea, and South China Sea. Our results indicated that selective degradation and preservation of organic matter occurred in these sediments, and marine‐derived young organic carbon degraded preferentially and rapidly, resulting in high concentrations of pore‐water DOC and DIC with distinct carbon isotopic signatures. The average 14 C age of pore‐water DOC was thousands of years younger than that of SOC in the sediment, suggesting that DOC was newly produced and cycled much faster than SOC. Aged SOC was refractory and preserved in sediments. Using a dual‐isotope three‐end‐member model, the contributions of potential sources to SOC, DOC, and DIC were estimated. Marine‐derived biomass organic carbon contributed the most to DOC, and dissolution of biogenic carbonate contributed the most to DIC. Riverine inputs of pre‐aged soil and fossil organic carbon dominated the SOC pool. Our study demonstrated that marginal sea sediments are important sites of young DOC and DIC fluxes into the water column, thus acting as a major pathway for carbon and nutrient cycling in the ocean.

A designed plasmid‐transition strategy enables rapid construction of robust and versatile synthetic exoelectrogens for environmental applications - Yang‐Yang Fan; Qiang Tang; Hong Sun; Han‐Qing Yu (Environmental Microbiology, 2022)
Genetic engineering is promising to expand the application scope of exoelectrogens in energy and environmental applications and plasmid vectors, as one type of fundamental tool, are intensively applied. Antibiotics are widely utilized for plasmid selection and maintenance; however, their utilization suffers from environmental concerns on the spread of resistance genes, elevated costs, inevitable genotypic instability and phenotypic heterogeneity. In this work, we establish an auxotrophic complementation system for stable plasmid maintenance without antibiotic association, in Shewanella oneidensis , an attractive model exoelectrogen. A plasmid‐transition strategy is designed to facilitate the rapid and efficient construction of the auxotrophic complementation system. Such a system not only enables the same intensive gene expression as the conventional antibiotic‐associated plasmid system but also exhibits remarkably superior robustness and stability. With this system, the menaquinone pool of the extracellular respiratory chain is enhanced first independently and further synergized by engineering the Mtr conduit, leading to significantly promoted extracellular electron transfer (EET) outputs (up to 10.33‐ and 2.97‐fold improvement in the maximum current density and the maximum output voltage) and heavy metal Cr(VI) reduction ability (5.15‐fold improvement). This work provides a robust and stable platform to engineer exoelectrogens for environmental applications.

Focal-type, but not Diffuse-type, Amyloid Beta Plaques are Correlated with Alzheimer’s Neuropathology, Cognitive Dysfunction, and Neuroinflammation in the Human Hippocampus - Fan Liu; Jianru Sun; Xue Wang; Sixuan Jin; Fengrun Sun; Tao Wang; Bo Yuan; Wenying Qiu; Chao Ma (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2022)
Amyloid beta (Aβ) plaques are one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). However, currently available anti-amyloid therapies fail to show effectiveness in the treatment of AD in humans. It has been found that there are different types of Aβ plaque (diffuse and focal types) in the postmortem human brain. In this study, we aimed to investigate the correlations among different types of Aβ plaque and AD-related neuropathological and cognitive changes based on a postmortem human brain bank in China. The results indicated that focal plaques, but not diffuse plaques, significantly increased with age in the human hippocampus. We also found that the number of focal plaques was positively correlated with the severity of AD-related neuropathological changes (measured by the “ABC” scoring system) and cognitive decline (measured by the Everyday Cognitive Insider Questionnaire). Furthermore, most of the focal plaques were co-localized with neuritic plaques (identified by Bielschowsky silver staining) and accompanied by microglial and other inflammatory cells. Our findings suggest the potential of using focal-type but not general Aβ plaques as biomarkers for the neuropathological evaluation of AD.
