Seasonal–interannual–decadal variations of sea level in the South China Sea and connections with the tropical–subtropical Pacific - Juan Li; Wei Tan; Wenjin Sun; Lina Yang; Lei Lin; Qingjun Fu (International Journal of Climatology, 2023)
Different timescale contributions to the sea‐level variation in the South China Sea (SCS) are evaluated in this paper. On seasonal timescale, the large variance of the sea‐level anomaly (SLA) could account for more than 70% of the monthly sea‐level variation in the western shallow continental shelf and the area of Luzon cold eddy. Besides, the seasonal explained variance percentage (skill) has 2 weak centres (50%–70%) off eastern Vietnam, which is related to the summertime eddy pair in the SCS. On interannual‐to‐decadal (low‐frequency) timescale, the skill has two large‐value regions (Zone A and Zone B). Zone A is characterized by double centres off eastern Vietnam, but the meridional position of the double centres is farther north than that of the eddy pair. The skill in Zone A is in the range of 35%–55%, and about 50%–70% of the low‐frequency variation comes from the steric effect. Zone B is off the west coast of the Philippines. The skill in Zone B increases southward, and it is dominated by the wind‐induced dynamic process which is attributed to the remote Rossby wave from the tropical Pacific. Based on the S‐EOF analysis, the SEOF‐1 mode mainly portrays the decadal variation of the SLA, while the SEOF‐2 mode reflects the interannual variation of the SLA. In Zone B, almost all of the low‐frequency variation could be attributed to ENSO and PDO, especially to PDO which has a larger contribution. However, the double centres in Zone A are governed by the SCS summer monsoon, instead of ENSO and PDO.

Large‐scale exploration of nitrogen utilization efficiency in Asia region for rice crop: Variation patterns and determinants - Yuming Sun; Limin Gao; Xusheng Meng; Jian Huang; Junjie Guo; Xuan Zhou; Guohai Fu; Yang Xu; Leslie G. Firbank; Min Wang; Ning Ling; Xumeng Feng; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2023)
Improving rice nitrogen utilization efficiency (NUtE) is imperative to maximizing future food productivity while minimizing environmental threats, yet knowledge of its variation and the underlying regulatory factors is still lacking. Here, we integrated a dataset with 21,571 data compiled by available data from peer‐reviewed literature and a large‐scale field survey to address this knowledge gap. The overall results revealed great variations in rice NUtE, which were mainly associated with human activities, climate conditions, and rice variety. Specifically, N supply rate, temperature, and precipitation were the foremost determinants of rice NUtE, and NUtE responses to climatic change differed among rice varieties. Further prediction highlighted the improved rice NUtE with the increasing latitude or longitude. The indica and hybrid rice exhibited higher NUtE in low latitude regions compared to japonica and inbred rice, respectively. Collectively, our results evaluated the primary drivers of rice NUtE variations and predicted the geographic responses of NUtE in different varieties. Linking the global variations in rice NUtE with environmental factors and geographic adaptability provides valuable agronomic and ecological insights into the regulation of rice NUtE.

The role of GLUT2 in glucose metabolism in multiple organs and tissues - Bo Sun; Hui Chen; Jisu Xue; Peiwu Li; Xu Fu (Molecular Biology Reports, 2023)
The glucose transporter family has an important role in the initial stage of glucose metabolism; Glucose transporters 2 (GLUTs, encoded by the solute carrier family 2, SLC2A genes) is the major glucose transporter in β-cells of pancreatic islets and hepatocytes but is also expressed in the small intestine, kidneys, and central nervous system; GLUT2 has a relatively low affinity to glucose. Under physiological conditions, GLUT2 transports glucose into cells and allows the glucose concentration to reach balance on the bilateral sides of the cellular membrane; Variation of GLUT2 is associated with various endocrine and metabolic disorders; In this study, we discussed the role of GLUT2 in participating in glucose metabolism and regulation in multiple organs and tissues and its effects on maintaining glucose homeostasis.

Recent Progress in Atmospheric Chemistry Research in China: Establishing a Theoretical Framework for the “Air Pollution Complex” - Tong Zhu; Mingjin Tang; Meng Gao; Xinhui Bi; Junji Cao; Huizheng Che; Jianmin Chen; Aijun Ding; Pingqing Fu; Jian Gao; Yang Gao; Maofa Ge; et al. (Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, 2023)
Atmospheric chemistry research has been growing rapidly in China in the last 25 years since the concept of the “air pollution complex” was first proposed by Professor Xiaoyan TANG in 1997. For papers published in 2021 on air pollution (only papers included in the Web of Science Core Collection database were considered), more than 24 000 papers were authored or co-authored by scientists working in China. In this paper, we review a limited number of representative and significant studies on atmospheric chemistry in China in the last few years, including studies on (1) sources and emission inventories, (2) atmospheric chemical processes, (3) interactions of air pollution with meteorology, weather and climate, (4) interactions between the biosphere and atmosphere, and (5) data assimilation. The intention was not to provide a complete review of all progress made in the last few years, but rather to serve as a starting point for learning more about atmospheric chemistry research in China. The advances reviewed in this paper have enabled a theoretical framework for the air pollution complex to be established, provided robust scientific support to highly successful air pollution control policies in China, and created great opportunities in education, training, and career development for many graduate students and young scientists. This paper further highlights that developing and low-income countries that are heavily affected by air pollution can benefit from these research advances, whilst at the same time acknowledging that many challenges and opportunities still remain in atmospheric chemistry research in China, to hopefully be addressed over the next few decades.

Long-term hypoxia and reoxygenation induced oxidative stress lead to immunosuppression and apoptosis in golden pompano (Trachinotus blochii) - Yue Gu; Jun Long Sun; Fu Cheng Yao; Tian Jiang; Chun Xiu Jin; Li Ping Shi; Shu Kui Sun; Fei Biao Song; Jian Luo (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
The fluctuations of dissolved oxygen (DO) often lead to hypoxia in aquaculture, which has a huge adverse impact on fish. This study mainly investigated the effects of long-term hypoxia on oxidative stress, immune response, and cell apoptosis in the liver of golden pompano ( Trachinotus blochii ), which is not tolerant to hypoxia. So we conducted a 14 day low oxygen stress experiment on the golden pompano with a DO of 3.0 ± 0.2 mg/L, then restore the DO to normal levels and continue the 14 day reoxygenation experiment. Results showed that hypoxia and reoxygenation led to significant changes in liver structure. During hypoxia and reoxygenation, the expression of oxidative stress related genes ( SOD1 , SOD2 , GSH-Px , and CAT ) and levels of antioxidant enzymes (CAT and MDA) in the liver were increased. Liver lysozyme activity and the relative expression of the pro-inflammatory factors interleukin ( IL)-1β were significantly increased, but the expression of IL-34 was down-regulated during hypoxia. The expression of IL-12β was significantly increased during reoxygenation. The expression of anti-inflammatory factor IL -11 was decreased duringreoxygenation. The expression of toll like receptors ( TLRs ) -7, -8, and -9 increases after hypoxia and decreases after reoxygenation, indicating that both hypoxia and reoxygenation affect the immune response. In addition, during hypoxia and reoxygenation, TUNEL-positive signals increased, the bcl2/bax ratio decreased, the expression levels of caspases-3 and -8 were significantly up-regulated during hypoxia, and expression levels of caspases-9 was up-regulated during reoxygenation. In summary, hypoxia and reoxygenation can cause oxidative stress, induce inflammatory reactions, inhibit immune processes, activate apoptosis, and lead to liver damage of the golden pompano, which may be irreversible.

Genomic and phylotypic properties of three novel marine Bacteroidota from bare tidal flats reveal insights into their potential of polysaccharide metabolism - Kuo-Jian Ma; Yong-Lian Ye; Yun-Han Fu; Ge-Yi Fu; Cong Sun; Xue-Wei Xu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Special geographical location and abundant organic matter profiles in tidal flats have resulted in great microbial diversity, in which Bacteroidota strains are considered as one of the primary degraders of polysaccharides, playing a crucial role in the carbon cycle. In this study, we collected sediment or sand samples from 34 bare tidal flats in China and investigated the profile of culturable bacteria, selected three Bacteroidota for polyphasic taxonomic analysis and revealed their polysaccharide metabolic potential. Totally, we isolated 352 pure cultured bacteria and they mainly distributed in Bacteroidota , Pseudomonadota , Bacillota , and Actinomycetota . It is shown that the bare tidal flats contained a large number of potential novel species, mainly distributed in Flavobacteriales and Cytophagales within Bacteroidota . Three Bacteroidota strains, M17 T , M82 T , and M415 T , isolated from mudflat were selected for polyphasic taxonomic analysis. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between strain M17 T and Mangrovivirga cuniculi KCTC 72349 T was 99.28%, and less than 90.09% with other species; strain M82 T shared the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 97.85% with Pontibacter litorisediminis KCTC 52252 T , and less than 97.43% with other species; strain M415T had higher 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities with type species of genera Eudoraea (92.62-93.68%), Zeaxanthinibacter (92.02-92.91%), and Muriicola (92.21-92.83%). Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences and single-copy orthologous clusters showed that strains M17 T and M82 T represent novel species within the genus Mangrovivirga and Pontibacter , respectively, and strain M415 T represents a novel species of a novel genus within the family Flavobacteriaceae . The potential in polysaccharide metabolism of all these three strains was analyzed by genomes. The analysis revealed that glycoside hydrolases and glycosyltransferases account for more than 70% of the total CAZymes. Additionally, the numbers of polysaccharide utilization loci (PULs) and annotated CAZymes in Cytophagales spp. M17 T and M82 T were found to be higher than those in Flavobacteriales sp. M415 T . Highly specialized saccharolytic systems and the presence of numerous diversified CAZymes for obtaining energy through polysaccharide metabolism were speculated to help the three novel strains adapt to the utilization of both terrestrial and marine polysaccharides.

Compound droughts slow down the greening of the Earth - Xianfeng Liu; Gaopeng Sun; Zheng Fu; Philippe Ciais; Xiaoming Feng; Jing Li; Bojie Fu (Global Change Biology, 2023)
Vegetation response to soil and atmospheric drought has raised extensively controversy, however, the relative contributions of soil drought, atmospheric drought, and their compound droughts on global vegetation growth remain unclear. Combining the changes in soil moisture (SM), vapor pressure deficit (VPD), and vegetation growth (normalized difference vegetation index [NDVI]) during 1982–2015, here we evaluated the trends of these three drought types and quantified their impacts on global NDVI. We found that global VPD has increased 0.22 ± 0.05 kPa·decade −1 during 1982–2015, and this trend was doubled after 1996 (0.32 ± 0.16 kPa·decade −1 ) than before 1996 (0.16 ± 0.15 kPa·decade −1 ). Regions with large increase in VPD trend generally accompanied with decreasing trend in SM, leading to a widespread increasing trend in compound droughts across 37.62% land areas. We further found compound droughts dominated the vegetation browning since late 1990s, contributing to a declined NDVI of 64.56%. Earth system models agree with the dominant role of compound droughts on vegetation growth, but their negative magnitudes are considerably underestimated, with half of the observed results (34.48%). Our results provided the evidence of compound droughts‐induced global vegetation browning, highlighting the importance of correctly simulating the ecosystem‐scale response to the under‐appreciated exposure to compound droughts as it will increase with climate change.

Natural fractures are of paramount importance in storing carbon in shale oil reservoirs, where ultra-low porosity and permeability necessitate their essentiality for enhanced oil recovery. Therefore, comprehensively clarifying the characteristics of natural fractures in shale oil reservoirs is imperative. This paper focuses on investigating the microscopic features of natural fractures in organic-rich continental shale oil reservoirs that are commonly found in the Lower Jurassic strata of the Sichuan Basin, employing them as a representative example. Multiple methods were utilized, including mechanical testing, Kaiser testing, multi-scale CT scanning (at 2 mm, 25 mm, and 100 mm scales), and a numerical simulation of fluid seepage in fracture models. The results revealed that the in situ stress of the target seam displays the characteristic of σH > σv > σh, with σv and σh being particularly similar. The relatively high lateral stress coefficient (ranging from 1.020 to 1.037) indicates that the horizontal stresses are higher than the average level. Although the 2 mm CT scan provides a more detailed view of fractures and connected pores, it primarily exhibited more pore information due to the high resolution, which may not fully unveil additional information about the fractures. Thus, the 25 mm shale core is a better option for studying natural fractures. The tortuosity of the different fractures indicated that the morphology of larger fractures is more likely to remain stable, while small-scale fractures tend to exhibit diverse shapes. The simulations demonstrated that the stress sensitivity of fracture permeability is approximately comparable across different fracture scales. Therefore, our research can enhance the understanding of the properties of natural fractures, facilitate predicting favorable areas for shale oil exploration, and aid in evaluating the carbon storage potential of shale oil reservoirs.

The lined seahorse (Hippocampus erectus) is an aquacultural species in China and has important economic and ornamental value. However, the species is affected by disease, which restricts their large-scale cultivation. In 2021, a disease was observed in cultured seahorses in Tianjin, China, with a cumulative mortality rate of 20%. The symptoms observed in the moribund seahorse included a weak swimming capacity, discolored body surface, enlarged liver and kidneys, and numerous white nodules in the parenchymatous organs. The strains HM-2021-1 and HM-2021-2 were isolated from diseased seahorses and were identified as being responsible for the disease. It demonstrated the potential to infect seahorse, and the cumulative mortalities of the seahorses artificially infected with strains HM-2021-1 and HM-2021-2 were 93.3% and 90.0%. The pathogen was identified as Mycobacterium chelonae based on physiological and biochemical tests, and 16S rDNA, rpoB, and Hsp65 gene sequence analysis. To our knowledge, this study is the first report of M. chelonae associated with diseased seahorses in China.

Bending Deformation and Ultimate Moment Calculation of Screen Pipes in Offshore Sand Control Completion - Yudan Peng; Guangming Fu; Baojiang Sun; Xiaohui Sun; Jiying Chen; Segen F. Estefen (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
Horizontal wells, extended-reach wells, and multi-branch wells were often used to exploit subsea oil and gas efficiently. However, during the sand control screen completion of those wells, the sand control screen pipe was easily deformed. Failure occurred when passing through the bending section due to the large bending section in the wellbore trajectory. A parametric analysis model of the screen pipe was established based on ABAQUS and Python software under pure bending load first. Then, deformation patterns and mechanisms were identified and discussed. The effects of parameters on the screen pipe bending deformation patterns and the ultimate moment were analyzed. Finally, an empirical formula for calculating the ultimate moment of the screen pipe was established. The results showed that the deformation of the screen pipe was complex, and three deformation patterns were related to the hole parameters. Due to an increase in the diameter and number of circumferential and axial holes, the ultimate moment of the screen pipe gradually decreased, and the circumferential holes had a more significant effect on the ultimate moment than the axial holes. The established empirical formula could accurately calculate the ultimate moment of the screen pipe, and the average difference between the formula and numerical simulation results was 3.25%.

CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knockin of IRES-tdTomato at Ins2 locus reveals no RFP-positive cells in mouse islets - Xueling Zhou; Qi Fu; Tao Yang; Min Sun (Functional & Integrative Genomics, 2023)
Using the CRISPR/Cas9 genomic editing technology, we constructed a transgenic mouse model to express specific fluorescent protein in pancreatic β cells, which harbor tdTomato exogenous gene downstream of the Ins2 promoter in C57BL/6 J mice. The Ins2-specific single-guide RNA-targeted exon2 was designed for the CRISPR/Cas9 system and Donor vector was constructed at the same time. Then Cas9, sgRNA, and Donor vector were microinjected in vitro into the mouse zygotes that were implanted into pseudo-pregnant mice. We obtained homozygotes through mating heterozygotes, and verified the knockin effect through genotype identification, in vivo imaging, and frozen section. Six F0 mice and stable inherited Ins2-IRES-tdTomato F1 were obtained. Genome sequencing results showed that the knockin group had no change in the Ins2 exon compared with the control group, while only the base sequence of tdTomato was added and no base mutation occurred. However, in vivo imaging and frozen section did not observe the expression of red fluorescent protein (RFP), and the protein expression of knockin gene tdTomato was negative. As a result, the expressions of tdTomato protein and fluorescence intensity were low and the detection threshold was not reached. In the CRISP/Cas9 technique, the exogenous fragment of IRES connection would affect the transcription level of the preceding gene, which in turn would lead to low-level expression of the downstream gene and affect the effect of gene insertion.

Fabrication of Fluorine-Free Superhydrophobic Surface on Aluminum Substrate for Corrosion Protection and Drag Reduction - Jingguo Fu; Yihe Sun; Jingye Wang; Hongpeng Zhang; Jifeng Zhang; Yulong Ji (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
A fluorine-free cerium palmitate superhydrophobic surface on an aluminum plate was fabricated via a two-step electrodeposition method. The mechanical durability, anti-corrosion performance, water repellency and drag reduction properties were tested. The results indicate that a superhydrophobic surface with a densely packed convex island shape with micro-pores and nano-scale strips was formed on the aluminum plate. Furthermore, the as-prepared surface exhibits excellent water-repelling ability with a water contact angle of 162.3° and a sliding angle of 1.5°. Owing to the protective effect of the convex island structure on the surface, the surface also shows superb mechanical durability, which is a shortcoming of ordinary electrodeposited surfaces. Moreover, compared with bare aluminum, the corrosion inhibition efficiency of the superhydrophobic surface is 99.55% and the surface drag decreases by 65.3% at a lower flow rate. Therefore, it is believed that the environmentally friendly fluorine-free superhydrophobic surface has promising potential applications in marine engineering.

Investigation and optimization of methane purification method for natural gas by two-column gas chromatography: A preliminary test for doubly substituted isotopologue (13CH3D) measurements - Tiantian Sun; Jun Cao; Haijun Qiu; Piaoer Fu; Hailong Lu; Zijie Ning; Daohua Chen; Yinan Deng; Shengxiong Yang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
In this study, optimization of the methane purification method by gas chromatography (GC) is described for the determination of methane clumped isotope compositions of natural gas. Methane was purified under the carrying of helium on the assembly line composed of a vacuum apparatus and two-column gas chromatography. Once methane was detected by the passive thermal conductivity detector (TCD) on the GC, it was collected through a silica trap immersed in liquid nitrogen. Optimum conditions of chromatographic column diameter (1/4 inch outside diameter), temperature (25 °C), and flow rate (50.8 ml min -1 ) have been determined. When N 2 /CH 4 (by volume) is<8.7%, the purification experiment can be undertaken once, while a double purification experiment is required when natural gas samples have an N 2 /CH 4 of 8.7-78.0%. The purification method yielded a purity of 98.4-98.8% with a recovery of 97.3-98.7% on purified methane samples verified by GC determination. N 2 was the main source that contributed to the loss of the purity, however, the N-bearing isobaric interferences ( 14 NH 3 + and 14 NH 4 + ) in purified samples presented<1‰ intensity compared to the methane isotopologues ( 13 CH 4 + and 13 CH 3 D + ), thus we concluded that these interferences have no impact on clumped isotope determinations. The conventional δ 13 C VPDB and δD VSMOW values of purified methane samples were consistent with those of pure methane. A preliminary measurement of Δ 13 CH 3 D (working gas) of purified samples revealed differences of -0.27‰, which was within the internal precision of the measurement. The entire process of a single purification can be completed within two hours. Our proposed method could be used for the clumped isotope purification of natural gas with higher than ~50% methane.

Insights into symbiotic interactions from metatranscriptome analysis of deep‐sea mussel Gigantidas platifrons under long‐term laboratory maintenance - Yan Sun; Minxiao Wang; Hao Chen; Hao Wang; Zhaoshan Zhong; Li Zhou; Lulu Fu; Chaolun Li; Song Sun (Molecular Ecology, 2023)
Symbioses between invertebrates and chemosynthetic bacteria are of fundamental importance in deep‐sea ecosystems, but the mechanisms that enable their symbiont associations are still largely undescribed, owing to the culturable difficulties of deep‐sea lives. Bathymodiolinae mussels are remarkable in their ability to overcome decompression and can be maintained successfully for an extended period under atmospheric pressure, thus providing a model for investigating the molecular basis of symbiotic interactions. Herein, we conducted metatranscriptome sequencing and gene co‐expression network analysis of Gigantidas platifrons under laboratory maintenance with gradual loss of symbionts. The results revealed that one‐day short‐term maintenance triggered global transcriptional perturbation in symbionts, but little gene expression changes in mussel hosts, which were mainly involved in responses to environmental changes. Long‐term maintenance with depleted symbionts induced a metabolic shift in the mussel host. The most notable changes were the suppression of sterol biosynthesis and the complementary activation of terpenoid backbone synthesis in response to the reduction of bacteria‐derived terpenoid sources. In addition, we detected the upregulation of host proteasomes responsible for amino acid deprivation caused by symbiont depletion. Additionally, a significant correlation between host microtubule motor activity and symbiont abundance was revealed, suggesting the possible function of microtubule‐based intracellular trafficking in the nutritional interaction of symbiosis. Overall, by analyzing the dynamic transcriptomic changes during the loss of symbionts, our study highlights the nutritional importance of symbionts in supplementing terpenoid compounds and essential amino acids and provides insight into the molecular mechanisms and strategies underlying the symbiotic interactions in deep‐sea ecosystems.

Non‐stationary effects of multiple drivers on the dynamics of Japanese sardine ( Sardinops melanostictus , Clupeidae) - Shuyang Ma; Caihong Fu; Jianchao Li; Peng Sun; Yang Liu; Zhenjiang Ye; Yoshiro Watanabe; Yongjun Tian (Fish and Fisheries, 2023)
Non‐stationary driver‐response relationships are increasingly being recognized by scientists, underlining that a paradigm shift out of conventional stationary relationships is crucial. Japanese sardine ( Sardinops melanostictus , Clupeidae) is a typical small pelagic fish in the northwestern Pacific with considerable fluctuations in productivity, bringing about great economic and ecological concerns. Numerous studies suggest that the population dynamics of Japanese sardine is an integrated process affected by multiple density‐dependent, fishing and climatic drivers. However, little has hitherto been done to incorporate the non‐stationary effects of multiple drivers, impeding progresses in understanding the population dynamics and in developing management strategies. In this study, we adopted variable coefficients generalized additive models to reveal the non‐stationary effects of density dependence, fishing pressure and climatic conditions on the population dynamics of Japanese sardine. Results suggest that the dynamics of Japanese sardine from 1976 to 2018 could be divided into four periods: the 1980s when suitable climatic conditions from strong Siberian High pressure system sustained high abundance; the 1990s when negative density‐dependent effects and degrading climatic conditions due to temperature increase led to population collapse; the 2000s when negative triple effects, particularly high fishing pressure, restricted the population increase; and the 2010s when favourable climatic conditions with re‐strengthening Siberian High pressure system accompanied by low fishing pressure contributed to the population recovery. The study highlights that precise identifications of population status and climatic conditions are helpful to achieve good trade‐offs between resource exploitation and protection and to facilitate ecosystem‐based management for Japanese sardine fisheries.

Experimental study on the effect of an oyster reef on the nonlinear characteristics of irregular waves - Beihan Jiang; Hui Zhang; Tuofu You; Yuanmin Sun; Chenming Fu; Weijie Liao; Feng Cai (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
As a “marine ecological engineer”, the oyster reefs not only perform important ecological functions, but also reduce the damage caused by waves to protective structures such as seawalls. However, oyster reefs in shallow water change the nonlinear characteristics of waves and affect sediment transport and coastal evolution. Based on Fourier spectrum and analysis of Wavelet Transform, the influence of artificial bag oyster reefs on the energy and nonlinear phase coupling of irregular waves are studied through physical experiment. The results show that oyster reefs have a substantial effect on the energy of primary harmonic, which transfer to higher harmonics through triad interactions, and a considerable reduction in primary harmonic energy and an increase in higher harmonics energy are reflected in the energy spectra. The transmission spectrum behind the oyster reefs shows three peaks at primary, secondary and third harmonics. The bicoherence spectrum indicates that the peaks at secondary and third harmonics mainly result from the self-coupling of the primary harmonics and phase coupling between the primary and secondary harmonics respectively. As the water depth increases, the degree of nonlinear coupling between wave components decreases, which leads to the energy of wave components at different frequencies increases. With increasing top width, the length of the shoaling region increases, and the growth of triad nonlinear interactions are observed in wavelet-based bicoherence spectra, resulting in the spectral peak energy decreasing while the secondary harmonics energy increasing in the spectrum. Finally, the potential application of an ecological system composed by “oyster reefs + mangroves” is discussed. As the effect of water depth on wave energy is much greater than that of top width, in artificial oyster reef construction, it is recommended that keep the oyster reefs non-submerged in terms of wave dissipation. Further studies should take the dynamic growth effect of oyster reefs into account.

Design and Optimization of Multipoint Sampler for Seafloor Sediment Carried by a Deep-Sea Landing Vehicle - Yan Gao; Yue Zhou; Wei Guo; Yifan Fu; Sen Gao; Zhenzhuo Wei; Hongming Sun; Yu Sun (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The present study proposes a low-energy consumption multipoint sampler carried by a deep-sea landing vehicle (DSLV) to meet the requirements of time series sampling in local areas and location series sampling in wide areas, and an optimization method of sampling structure based on least-squares support-vector machine (LSSVM) surrogate model and a multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) algorithm. First, the overall structure and core components, such as the multipoint sampler’s sampling structure, were designed. The optimization variables were the cone angle, sampling tube inner diameter, and sampling tube inner hole length, which were determined by considering the force with which the sampling structure penetrates the seafloor sediment. Then, the sampling process was simulated by the finite element method-smoothed particle hydrodynamics (FEM-SPH) method, while the accurate LSSVM model of force required for sampling and sampling tube volume was established. Finally, the MOPSO algorithm was used for multi-objective optimization of model parameters of sampling structure. The optimal model of sampling structure that can provide theoretical support for the optimal design of multipoint sampler effectively reduces energy consumption and improves sampling efficiency by force required for sampling 25.89% lower and sampling tube volume 34.81% higher than the original model.

Selective NO2 Detection by Black Phosphorus Gas Sensor Prepared via Aqueous Route for Ship Pollutant Monitoring - Yang Wang; Yujia Wang; Yue Sun; Kuanguang Zhang; Chenyang Zhang; Jianqiao Liu; Ce Fu; Junsheng Wang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The emission of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) caused by marine transportation has attracted worldwide environmental concerns. Two-dimensional (2D) black phosphorus (BP) is an emerging semiconductive material with the advantages of high electron mobility, a layer-dependent direct band gap and a large specific surface area. These properties ensure excellent potential in gas-sensing applications. In this work, BP quantum dots (QDs) are synthesized from commercial red phosphorus (RP) fine powder via the aqueous route. The BP QDs show uniform size distribution with an average size of 2.2 nm. They are employed to fabricate thin film gas sensors by aerial-assisted chemical vapor deposition. The microstructure, morphology and chemical composition are determined by various characterizations. The sensor performances are evaluated with the optimized response set to 100 ppm NO2 of 10.19 and a sensitivity of 0.48 is obtained. The gas sensor also demonstrates excellent repeatability, selectivity and stability. The fabricated thin film gas sensor assembled by BP QDs exhibits prospective applications in selective NO2 detection for marine gaseous pollutant monitoring and control.

Marine-Hydraulic-Oil-Particle Contaminant Identification Study Based on OpenCV - Chenyong Wang; Chao Yang; Hongpeng Zhang; Shengzhao Wang; Zhaoxu Yang; Jingguo Fu; Yuqing Sun (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Particulate pollutants mixed in hydraulic oil will lead to the failure of the marine hydraulic system. Nowadays, the current identification methods of particulate pollutants in oil make it challenging to obtain the specific parameters of pollutants. For this reason, this paper proposes a recognition method of marine-hydraulic-oil-particle pollutants based on OpenCV. The image of particles in the marine hydraulic oil was preprocessed by OpenCV software and using the Canny operator edge detection algorithm to extract the contour of particle pollutants to obtain their area and perimeter. The recognition accuracy reached 95%. Using the Douglas–Peucker algorithm for fit polygons, then image moments to obtain the angle-distance waveform of particulate pollutants, the shape of marine-hydraulic-oil particulate pollutants was successfully identified. The designed method has the advantages of fast calculation efficiency, high accuracy, and real-time detection of various parameters of particulate pollutants in marine hydraulic oil. It has great significance for the fault diagnosis of hydraulic systems and prolonging the working life of hydraulic equipment. This research provides a new idea for the condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of ships and offshore engineering equipment.

Radiomics based on readout-segmented echo-planar imaging (RS-EPI) diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) for prognostic risk stratification of patients with rectal cancer: a two-centre, machine learning study using the framework of predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine - Zonglin Liu; Yueming Wang; Fu Shen; Zhiyuan Zhang; Jing Gong; Caixia Fu; Changqing Shen; Rong Li; Guodong Jing; Sanjun Cai; Zhen Zhang; Yiqun Sun; et al. (EPMA Journal, 2022)
Background Currently, the rate of recurrence or metastasis (ROM) remains high in rectal cancer (RC) patients treated with the standard regimen. The potential of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) in predicting ROM risk has been reported, but the efficacy is insufficient. Aims This study investigated the potential of a new sequence called readout-segmented echo-planar imaging (RS-EPI) DWI in predicting the ROM risk of patients with RC using machine learning methods to achieve the principle of predictive, preventive, and personalized medicine (PPPM) application in RC treatment. Methods A total of 195 RC patients from two centres who directly received total mesorectal excision were retrospectively enrolled in our study. Machine learning methods, including recursive feature elimination (RFE), the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE), and the support vector machine (SVM) classifier, were used to construct models based on clinical-pathological factors (clinical model), radiomic features from RS-EPI DWI (radiomics model), and their combination (merged model). The Harrell concordance index (C-index) and the area under the time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) were calculated to evaluate the predictive performance at 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years. Kaplan‒Meier analysis was performed to evaluate the ability to stratify patients according to the risk of ROM. Findings The merged model performed well in predicting tumour ROM in patients with RC at 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years in both cohorts (AUC = 0.887/0.813/0.794; 0.819/0.795/0.783) and was significantly superior to the clinical model (AUC = 0.87 [95% CI: 0.80–0.93] vs. 0.71 [95% CI: 0.59–0.81], p = 0.009; C-index = 0.83 [95% CI: 0.76–0.90] vs. 0.68 [95% CI: 0.56–0.79], p = 0.002). It also had a significant ability to differentiate patients with a high and low risk of ROM (HR = 12.189 [95% CI: 4.976–29.853], p < 0.001; HR = 6.427 [95% CI: 2.265–13.036], p = 0.002). Conclusion Our developed merged model based on RS-EPI DWI accurately predicted and effectively stratified patients with RC according to the ROM risk at an early stage with an individualized profile, which may be able to assist physicians in individualizing the treatment protocols and promote a meaningful paradigm shift in RC treatment from traditional reactive medicine to PPPM.
