Differential responses of carbon‐degrading enzyme activities to warming: Implications for soil respiration - Ji Chen; Yiqi Luo; Pablo García‐Palacios; Junji Cao; Marina Dacal; Xuhui Zhou; Jianwei Li; Jianyang Xia; Shuli Niu; Huiyi Yang; Shelby Shelton; Wei Guo; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2018)
Extracellular enzymes catalyze rate‐limiting steps in soil organic matter decomposition, and their activities (EEAs) play a key role in determining soil respiration (SR). Both EEAs and SR are highly sensitive to temperature, but their responses to climate warming remain poorly understood. Here, we present a meta‐analysis on the response of soil cellulase and ligninase activities and SR to warming, synthesizing data from 56 studies. We found that warming significantly enhanced ligninase activity by 21.4% but had no effect on cellulase activity. Increases in ligninase activity were positively correlated with changes in SR, while no such relationship was found for cellulase. The warming response of ligninase activity was more closely related to the responses of SR than a wide range of environmental and experimental methodological factors. Furthermore, warming effects on ligninase activity increased with experiment duration. These results suggest that soil microorganisms sustain long‐term increases in SR with warming by gradually increasing the degradation of the recalcitrant carbon pool.

A Modeling Study on the Oil Spill of M/V Marathassa in Vancouver Harbour - Xiaomei Zhong; Haibo Niu; Yongsheng Wu; Charles Hannah; Shihan Li; Thomas King (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2018)
The M/V Marathassa oil spill occurred on 8 April 2015 in the English Bay. In the present study, the trajectory and the transport mechanism of the spilled oil have been studied by using the three-dimensional and particle-based Oil Spill Contingency and Response (OSCAR) model forced by the Finite-Volume Community Ocean Model (FVCOM). FVCOM provided the hydrodynamic variables used by the oil spill model of OSCAR. The results showed that the fraction of the oil on the water surface and on the shoreline, as well as the amount of oil recovered were affected by the time of the initial release, the overall duration of the discharge, wind and recovery actions. The hindcast study of the M/V Marathassa oil spill showed that the likely starting time for the discharge was between 14:00 and 15:00, on 8 April 2015. The release may have lasted for a relatively long time (assumed to be 22 h in this study). The results of modeling in this study were found reasonably acceptable allowing for further application in risk assessment studies in the English Bay and Vancouver Harbour. The trajectory of the spill was mainly controlled by the tidal currents, which were strongly sensitive to the local coastline and topography of First Narrows and that in the central harbour. The model results also suggested that a high-resolution model, which was able to resolve abrupt changes in the coastlines and topography, was necessary to simulate the oil spill in the harbour.

Climatic role of terrestrial ecosystem under elevated CO 2 : a bottom‐up greenhouse gases budget - Shuwei Liu; Cheng Ji; Cong Wang; Jie Chen; Yaguo Jin; Ziheng Zou; Shuqing Li; Shuli Niu; Jianwen Zou (Ecology Letters, 2018)
The net balance of greenhouse gas ( GHG ) exchanges between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere under elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide ( CO 2 ) remains poorly understood. Here, we synthesise 1655 measurements from 169 published studies to assess GHG s budget of terrestrial ecosystems under elevated CO 2 . We show that elevated CO 2 significantly stimulates plant C pool ( NPP ) by 20%, soil CO 2 fluxes by 24%, and methane ( CH 4 ) fluxes by 34% from rice paddies and by 12% from natural wetlands, while it slightly decreases CH 4 uptake of upland soils by 3.8%. Elevated CO 2 causes insignificant increases in soil nitrous oxide (N 2 O) fluxes (4.6%), soil organic C (4.3%) and N (3.6%) pools. The elevated CO 2 ‐induced increase in GHG emissions may decline with CO 2 enrichment levels. An elevated CO 2 ‐induced rise in soil CH 4 and N 2 O emissions (2.76 Pg CO 2 ‐equivalent year −1 ) could negate soil C enrichment (2.42 Pg CO 2 year −1 ) or reduce mitigation potential of terrestrial net ecosystem production by as much as 69% ( NEP , 3.99 Pg CO 2 year −1 ) under elevated CO 2 . Our analysis highlights that the capacity of terrestrial ecosystems to act as a sink to slow climate warming under elevated CO 2 might have been largely offset by its induced increases in soil GHG s source strength.

Occurrence of polybrominated diphenyl ethers in floor and elevated surface house dust from Shanghai, China - Dong Niu; Yanling Qiu; Li Li; Yihui Zhou; Xinyu Du; Zhiliang Zhu; Ling Chen; Zhifen Lin (Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2018)
House dust is the main source of human exposure to flame retardants by ingestion. This study investigated the occurrence of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in indoor dust from 22 houses in Shanghai, China. House dust was separately collected from the floor and elevated furnishings surface (mostly between 0.5 and 2 m height) for comparison. The concentrations of ∑ 22 PBDEs ranged from 19.4 to 3280 ng/g (with a geometric mean of 203 ng/g) and from 55.1 to 792 ng/g (with a geometric mean of 166 ng/g) in floor dust (FD) and elevated surface dust (ESD), respectively. BDE-209 was the predominant congener, accounting for about 73.1% of total PBDE burdens. In terms of congener profiles, the comparison of FD and ESD revealed no significant differences except for the ratio of BDE-47/BDE-99. ESD samples displayed a ratio of BDE-47/BDE-99 very similar to commercial penta-BDE products DE-71 while the ratio in FD was exceptionally higher. Significant correlation was found between concentrations of commercial penta-BDE compositions in FD and ESD ( p < 0.05). Except for some occasional values, PBDE levels in house dust exhibited temporal stability. Human exposure to PBDEs via dust ingestion was estimated. The highest daily intake of PBDEs was for toddlers by using 95th percentile concentrations of PBDEs via high dust ingestion in FD (23.07 ng/kg bw/day). About 20-fold difference in exposure estimates between toddlers and adults supports that toddlers are facing greater risk from indoor floor dust. Expectedly, this study highlighted the point that residents in Shanghai were exposed to low doses of PBDEs in house dust.

RETRACTED ARTICLE: Downregulation of the Long Non-Coding RNA Meg3 Promotes Angiogenesis After Ischemic Brain Injury by Activating Notch Signaling - Juan Liu; Qing Li; Kun-shan Zhang; Bin Hu; Xin Niu; Shu-min Zhou; Si-guang Li; Yu-ping Luo; Yang Wang; Zhi-feng Deng (Molecular Neurobiology, 2017)
Angiogenesis after ischemic brain injury contributes to the restoration of blood supply in the ischemic zone. Strategies to improve angiogenesis may facilitate the function recovery after stroke. Recent researches have demonstrated that dysfunction of long non-coding RNAs are associated with angiogenesis. We have previously reported that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are aberrantly expressed in ischemic stroke. However, little is known about long non-coding RNAs and theirs role in angiogenesis after stroke. In this study, we identified a rat lncRNAs, Meg3, and found that Meg3 was significantly decreased after ischemic stroke. Overexpression of Meg3 suppressed functional recovery and decreased capillary density after ischemic stroke. Downregulation of Meg3 ameliorated brain lesion and increased angiogenesis after ischemic stroke. Silencing of Meg3 resulted in a proangiogenic effect evidenced by increased endothelial cell migration, proliferation, sprouting, and tube formation. Mechanistically, we showed that Meg3 negatively regulated notch pathway both in vivo and in vitro. Inhibition of notch signaling in endothelial cells reversed the proangiogenic effect induced by Meg3 downregulation. This study revealed the function of Meg3 in ischemic stroke and elucidated its mechanism in angiogenesis after ischemic stroke.

Regional variation in the temperature sensitivity of soil organic matter decomposition in China's forests and grasslands - Yuan Liu; Nianpeng He; Jianxing Zhu; Li Xu; Guirui Yu; Shuli Niu; Xiaomin Sun; Xuefa Wen (Global Change Biology, 2017)
How to assess the temperature sensitivity ( Q 10 ) of soil organic matter ( SOM ) decomposition and its regional variation with high accuracy is one of the largest uncertainties in determining the intensity and direction of the global carbon (C) cycle in response to climate change. In this study, we collected a series of soils from 22 forest sites and 30 grassland sites across China to explore regional variation in Q 10 and its underlying mechanisms. We conducted a novel incubation experiment with periodically changing temperature (5–30 °C), while continuously measuring soil microbial respiration rates. The results showed that Q 10 varied significantly across different ecosystems, ranging from 1.16 to 3.19 (mean 1.63). Q 10 was ordered as follows: alpine grasslands (2.01) > temperate grasslands (1.81) > tropical forests (1.59) > temperate forests (1.55) > subtropical forests (1.52). The Q 10 of grasslands (1.90) was significantly higher than that of forests (1.54). Furthermore, Q 10 significantly increased with increasing altitude and decreased with increasing longitude. Environmental variables and substrate properties together explained 52% of total variation in Q 10 across all sites. Overall, pH and soil electrical conductivity primarily explained spatial variation in Q 10 . The general negative relationships between Q 10 and substrate quality among all ecosystem types supported the C quality temperature ( CQT ) hypothesis at a large scale, which indicated that soils with low quality should have higher temperature sensitivity. Furthermore, alpine grasslands, which had the highest Q 10 , were predicted to be more sensitive to climate change under the scenario of global warming.

Unprecedented levels of nitrogen (N) have been deposited in ecosystems over the past century, which is expected to have cascading effects on microbially mediated soil respiration ( SR ). Extracellular enzymes play critical roles on the degradation of soil organic matter, and measurements of their activities are potentially useful indicators of SR . The links between soil extracellular enzymatic activities ( EEA s) and SR under N addition, however, have not been established. We therefore conducted a meta‐analysis from 62 publications to synthesize the responses of soil EEA s and SR to elevated N. Nitrogen addition significantly increased glycosidase activity ( GA ) by 13.0%, α ‐1,4‐glucosidase ( AG ) by 19.6%, β ‐1,4‐glucosidase ( BG ) by 11.1%, β ‐1,4‐xylosidase ( BX ) by 21.9% and β ‐D‐cellobiosidase ( CBH ) by 12.6%. Increases in GA were more evident for long duration, high rate, organic and mixed N addition (combination of organic and inorganic N addition), as well as for studies from farmland. The response ratios ( RR s) of GA were positively correlated with the SR ‐ RR s, even when evaluated individually for AG , BG , BX and CBH . This positive correlation between GA ‐ RR and SR ‐ RR was maintained for most types of vegetation and soil as well as for different methods of N addition. Our results provide the first evidence that GA is linked to SR under N addition over a range of ecosystems and highlight the need for further studies on the response of other soil EEA s to various global change factors and their implications for ecosystem functions.

Soil net nitrogen (N) mineralization (N min ) is a pivotal process in the global N cycle regulating the N availability of plant growth. Understanding the spatial patterns of N min, its temperature sensitivity ( Q 10 ) and regulatory mechanisms is critical for improving the management of soil nutrients. In this study, we evaluated 379 peer‐reviewed scientific papers to explore how N min and the Q 10 of N min varied among different ecosystems and regions at the global scale. The results showed that N min varied significantly among different ecosystems with a global average of 2.41 mg N soil kg −1 day −1 . Furthermore, N min significantly decreased with increasing latitude and altitude. The Q 10 varied significantly among different ecosystems with a global average of 2.21, ranging from the highest found in forest soils (2.43) and the lowest found for grassland soils (1.67) and significantly increased with increasing latitude. Path analyses indicated that N min was primarily affected by the content of soil organic carbon (C), soil C:N ratio, and clay content, where Q 10 was primarily influenced by the soil C:N ratio and soil pH. Furthermore, the activation energy ( E a ) of soil N mineralization was significantly and negative correlated with the substrate quality index among all ecosystems, indicating the applicability of the carbon quality temperature hypothesis to soil N mineralization at a global scale. These findings provided empirical evidence supporting that soil N availability, under global warming scenarios, is expected to increase stronger in colder regions as compared with that low‐latitude regions due to the higher Q 10 . This may alleviate the restriction of N supply for increased primary productivity at higher latitudes.

Relatively stable response of fruiting stage to warming and cooling relative to other phenological events - L. L. Jiang; S. P. Wang; F. D. Meng; J. C. Duan; H. S. Niu; G. P. Xu; X. X. Zhu; Z. H. Zhang; C. Y. Luo; S. J. Cui; Y. M. Li; X. E. Li; et al. (Ecology, 2016)
The timing of the fruit‐set stage (i.e., start and end of fruit set) is crucial in a plant's life cycle, but its response to temperature change is still unclear. We investigated the timing of seven phenological events, including fruit‐set dates during 3 yr for six alpine plants transplanted to warmer (approximately +3.5°C in soils) and cooler (approximately −3.5°C in soils) locations along an altitudinal gradient in the Tibetan area. We found that fruit‐set dates remained relatively stable under both warming and cooling during the 3‐yr transplant experiment. Three earlier phenological events (emergence of first leaf, first bud set, and first flowering) and two later phenological events (first leaf coloring and complete leaf coloring) were earlier by 4.8–8.2 d/°C and later by 3.2–7.1 d/°C in response to warming. Conversely, cooling delayed the three earlier events by 3.8–6.9 d/°C and advanced the two later events by 3.2–8.1 d/°C for all plant species. The timing of the first and/or last fruit‐set dates, however, did not change significantly compared to earlier and later phenological events. Statistical analyses also showed that the dates of fruit set were not significantly correlated or had lower correlations with changes of soil temperature relative to the earlier and later phenological events. Alpine plants may thus acclimate to changes in temperature for their fruiting function by maintaining relatively stable timings of fruit set compared with other phenological events to maximize the success of seed maturation and dispersal in response to short‐term warming or cooling.

A synthesis of the effect of grazing exclusion on carbon dynamics in grasslands in China - Zhongmin Hu; Shenggong Li; Qun Guo; Shuli Niu; Nianpeng He; Linghao Li; Guirui Yu (Global Change Biology, 2016)
Grazing exclusion ( GE ) is considered to be an effective approach to restore degraded grasslands and to improve their carbon (C) sequestration. However, the C dynamics and related controlling factors in grasslands with GE have not been well characterized. This synthesis examines the dynamics of soil C content and vegetation biomass with the recovery age through synthesizing results of 51 sites in grasslands in China. The results illustrate increases in soil C content and vegetation biomass with GE at most sites. Generally, both soil C content and vegetation biomass arrive at steady state after 15 years of GE . In comparison, the rates of increase in above‐ and belowground biomass declined exponentially with the age of GE , whereas soil C content declined in a milder (linear) way, implying a lagged response of soil C to the inputs from plant biomass. Mean annual precipitation ( MAP ) and the rate of soil nitrogen (N) change were the main factors affecting the rate of soil C content change. MAP played a major role at the early stage, whereas the rate of soil N change was the major contributor at the middle and late stages. Our results imply that the national grassland restoration projects in China may be more beneficial for C sequestration in humid regions with high MAP . In addition, increased soil N supply to grasslands with GE at the latter recovery stage may enhance ecosystem C sequestration capacity.

Aggravated phosphorus limitation on biomass production under increasing nitrogen loading: a meta‐analysis - Yong Li; Shuli Niu; Guirui Yu (Global Change Biology, 2016)
Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), either individually or in combination, have been demonstrated to limit biomass production in terrestrial ecosystems. Field studies have been extensively synthesized to assess global patterns of N impacts on terrestrial ecosystem processes. However, to our knowledge, no synthesis has been done so far to reveal global patterns of P impacts on terrestrial ecosystems, especially under different nitrogen (N) levels. Here, we conducted a meta‐analysis of impacts of P addition, either alone or with N addition, on aboveground (AGB) and belowground biomass production ( BGB ), plant and soil P concentrations, and N : P ratio in terrestrial ecosystems. Overall, our meta‐analysis quantitatively confirmed existing notions: (i) colimitation of N and P on biomass production and (ii) more P limitation in tropical forest than other ecosystems. More importantly, our analysis revealed new findings: (i) P limitation on biomass production was aggravated by N enrichment and (ii) plant P concentration was a better indicator of P limitation than soil P availability. Specifically, P addition increased AGB and BGB by 34% and 13%, respectively. The effect size of P addition on biomass production was larger in tropical forest than grassland, wetland, and tundra and varied with P fertilizer forms, P addition rates, or experimental durations. The P‐induced increase in biomass production and plant P concentration was larger under elevated than ambient N. Our findings suggest that the global limitation of P on biomass production will become severer under increasing N fertilizer and deposition in the future.
