Review on the Antiviral Organic Agents against Fish Rhabdoviruses - Shuang-Shuang Sun; Shi-Wei Ma; Jun Li; Qin Zhang; Guang-Zhou Zhou (Fishes, 2023)
Fish rhabdoviruses are harmful single-stranded RNA viruses with high mortality rates which cause considerable economic losses in aquaculture. It is imperative to explore and develop new antiviral compounds against them. In recent years, in addition to inorganic antiviral substances, more than 50 different organic compounds have been confirmed to be effective in the prevention and treatment of rhabdovirus infection and its dissemination in fish. The main types of extracts or agents and their trial designs are here considered for review. This review reveals the reported antiviral activities of extracts from organisms, proteins, lipids, polysaccharides, nucleic acids, coumarin derivatives, arctigenin derivatives, and other antiviral organic molecules against fish rhabdoviruses, respectively. Additionally, their antiviral mechanisms of action include direct virucidal effects, inhibiting virus-induced host cell apoptosis, the blocking of the viral replication cycle, affecting gene expression and innate antiviral immune responses, and so on. This review also gives perspectives on how to comprehensively explore the potential applications of the candidate molecules, which lay the foundation for the future development of new compounds or strategies for the prevention and control of fish rhabdoviruses in aquaculture.

Black soldier fly larvae replace traditional iced trash fish diet to enhance the delicious flavor of Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) - Jian-Feng Qiu; Cheng Luo; Li-Hua Ren; Wei Li; Tai-Ming Dai; Guang Wang; Xiao-Ning Sun; Kou-Chang Chong Moua; Yang-Hu Sima; Shi-Qing Xu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Chinese mitten crabs ( Eriocheir sinensis ) are traditionally fed iced trash fish, but the industry is facing problems such as low breeding safety. Black soldier fly ( Hermetia illucens ) is an alternative protein source in animal diets, including diets for aquatic animals, due to its high nutritional value. However, studies on the effects of black soldier fly on the flavor characteristics of aquatic animals are still limited. In the present study, we investigated the effects of the complete replacement of iced trash fish with black soldier fly larvae during the fattening period of Chinese mitten crab on the flavor molecule contents and evaluation indices. The levels of free amino acids and nucleotides were determined in three edible parts (muscle, hepatopancreas, and gonads) of crab. Taste activity value analysis showed that glutamic acid, glycine, alanine, and arginine were the main amino acids contributing to the umami taste and sweetness, while histidine, lysine, valine, and methionine were the main amino acids contributing to the bitterness. Equivalent umami concentration (EUC) analysis showed that female gonads had the strongest umami taste, followed by the hepatopancreas and muscle. Sweetness value (SWT) analysis showed that the sweetness of muscle was the highest. Feeding black soldier fly larvae affected the flavor characteristics of crabs with tissue and sex differences. The EUC of the female gonads and SWT of the muscle were significantly increased. Meanwhile, the EUC of the hepatopancreas and SWT of the gonads were slightly decreased in male crabs. Our results indicate that the complete replacement of iced trash fish with black soldier fly larvae during the fattening period significantly enhances the flavor characteristics of crabs based on the contents of flavoring amino acids and nucleotides. It is important for sustainable aquaculture to replace animal protein with alternative protein sources such as black soldier fly larvae.

Dynamic Load Effects and Power Performance of an Integrated Wind–Wave Energy System Utilizing an Optimum Torus Wave Energy Converter - Wei Shi; Jinghui Li; Constantine Michailides; Mingsheng Chen; Shuaishuai Wang; Xin Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
To increase the utilization of wave and other renewable energy resources, an integrated system consisting of an offshore wind turbine and a wave energy converter (WEC) could be used to harvest the potential energy. In this study, a dimensionless optimization method is developed for shape optimization of a hollow cylindrical WEC, and an optimal shape is obtained using a differential evolution (DE) algorithm. The frequency domain response characteristics of the WEC with different geometric shapes and viscous damping loads are studied. The numerical model of the wind-wave integrated system, which consists of a semisubmersible platform and the WEC, is developed and used. The dynamic responses of the integrated system with and without using the WEC optimum section are compared. The results show that the dimensionless optimization method utilized in this paper is very applicable for hollow cylindrical WECs. A smaller inner radius and larger draft increase the heave RAO amplitude of the WEC significantly. In addition, optimization of the WEC shape and power take-off (PTO) damping coefficient can significantly improve the energy capture of the integrated system, which increases by 32.03%. The research results of this paper provide guidance for achieving the optimum design of offshore wind-wave energy integrated systems and quantify the benefits of using optimum designs in the produced wave energy power. In addition, the proposed dimensionless optimization method is generic and can be widely applied to different types of WECs.

Design and Dynamic Analysis of a Novel Large-Scale Barge-Type Floating Offshore Wind Turbine with Aquaculture Cage - Yuting Zhai; Haisheng Zhao; Xin Li; Wei Shi (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
In this study, a novel large-scale barge-type floating offshore wind turbine with an aquaculture cage (LSBT-FOWT-AC) in a water depth of 100 m is designed through fully coupled analysis using the SESAM tool to support the Technical University of Denmark (DTU) 10 MW wind turbine. The intact stability and natural period of motion of the newly designed LSBT-FOWT-AC are evaluated based on the DNV rules and standards. Then, the dynamic responses of the LSBT-FOWT-AC under various sea conditions are studied. The motion of the LSBT-FOWT-AC platform is considerably affected by waves, and its motion response is within a reasonable range even under the extreme sea conditions of the 100-year return period. By analyzing the results of the out-of-plane bending moment of root of blade 1 (RootMyc1), it can be seen that the rotor frequency (1P) has a visible influence on the wind turbine. Through the analysis of dynamic response statistics of the LSBT-FOWT-AC structure by the single variable method of environmental loads, it is found that wind force exerts the greatest impact on the dynamic response compared to the wave-excitation force and current drag force.

Magnetic Plug Sensor with Bridge Nonlinear Correction Circuit for Oil Condition Monitoring of Marine Machinery - Yuwei Zhang; Jiaju Hong; Haotian Shi; Yucai Xie; Hongpeng Zhang; Shuyao Zhang; Wei Li; Haiquan Chen (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Diesel engines in marine power systems often work in extreme environments. Oil monitoring technology can guarantee the operational safety of diesel engines. In this paper, a magnetic plug sensor for oil debris monitoring is proposed to improve sensitivity and accuracy. Through finite element analysis, absolute deviation is reduced by optimizing the sensor structure. A bridge nonlinear correction circuit is designed to make sensitivity consistent over the entire scale range, which can facilitate calibration and data processing. In order to reduce noise and amplify the signal effectively, a signal post-processing circuit is adopted as well, which consists of a first stage filter circuit, a second stage filter, an active filter module, and an instrumentation amplifier. Therefore, this magnetic plug sensor exhibits better sensitivity and accuracy. Furthermore, a void test and a dynamic test are carried out to investigate its performance. There is a linear relationship between the voltage and the particle mass for the sensor with a bridge nonlinear correction circuit. The results illustrate a minimum of 0.033 mg iron debris with a 1.647 signal-to-noise ratio. Additionally, it can capture and detect 47 μm particles with a debris capture rate of over 90%, which allows it to excel in early fault diagnosis as well.

Aeromonas hydrophila is a common pathogen of freshwater fish. In this study, A. hydrophila infection was shown to cause tissue damage, trigger physiological changes as well as alter the expression profiles of immune‐ and metabolic‐related genes in immune tissues of red crucian carp (RCC). Transcriptome analysis revealed that acute A. hydrophila infection exerted a profound effect on mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation linking metabolic regulation to immune response. In addition, we further identified cellular senescence, apoptosis, necrosis and mitogen‐activated protein kinase signal pathways as crucial signal pathways in the kidney of RCC subjected to A. hydrophila infection. These findings may have important implications for understanding modulation of immunometabolic response to bacterial infection.

Dynamic analysis of offshore wind turbines subjected to the combined wind and ice loads based on the cohesive element method - Bin Wang; Yingzhou Liu; Jianhua Zhang; Wei Shi; Xin Li; Ying Li (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Ice loads are an important and decisive factor for the safe operation of offshore wind turbines (OWTs). In severe environment load cases, it shall lead to prominent ice-induced vibration and ice-induced fatigue failure of OWT structures. Based on the cohesive element method (CEM) and considering the pile–soil interaction used by nonlinear distributed springs, the full interaction model of the ice and monopile OWT structure with an ice-breaking cone in a cold sea region is established in this study. Furthermore, the Tsai-Wu failure criterion and the empirical failure formula of maximum plastic failure strain are used to describe the mechanical behavior of ice bending failure in the collision simulation tool LS-DYNA, and the dynamic ice loads under different ice velocities and cone angles are statistically analyzed. Finally, according to the interaction process between sea ice and OWT containing the ice-breaking cone, the dynamic response of OWT under the combined wind and ice loads is studied, and the most reasonable ice-breaking cone angle is determined. The results show that the method adopted in this paper can well simulate the bending failure process of sea ice. Concurrently, the cone angle has a significant impact on the dynamic response and damage of the OWT, and the recommended optimal cone angle is 60.

Neuroparsin 1 (MrNP1) and Neuroparsin 2 (MrNP2) Are Involved in the Regulation of Vitellogenesis in the Shrimp Macrobrachium rosenbergii - Chun Mei Ao; Li Li Shi; Wei Wang; Cheng Gui Wang; Siuming F. Chan (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Neuroparsins (NP) are small-size cysteine-rich neuropeptides first discovered in insects. They are known to be involved in insect reproduction. In this study, we have cloned two neuroparsin cDNAs (i.e., MrNP1 and MrNP2) from the freshwater shrimp Macrobrachium rosenbergii . The two neuroparsins consist of 12 cysteines, which is characteristic of the neuroparsin family. These cysteines are arranged in identical relative positions that form 6-disulfide bonds. MrNP1 and MrNP2 are most similar to the corresponding neuroparsin counterparts of the shrimp Macrobrachium nipponense . Phylogenetic study results suggested that MrNP1 and MrNP2 are closely related to MnNP1 and MnNP3, respectively. Also, an additional MrNP gene similar to MnNP2 is expected to exist in M. rosenbergii. The MrNP1 expression level is the highest in the ovary, and MrNP2 expression is higher in the brain and heart of the females. In addition, during the ovary maturation cycle, MrNP1 expression in the hepatopancreas is highest in stage V; in the ovary it is variable. MrNP2 expression in the hepatopancreas and ovary is the highest in stage II and stage I, respectively. In vivo and in vitro bioassay experiment results indicate that MrNP1 and MrNP2 recombinant proteins can stimulate the expression of the MrVg gene. In contrast, silencing of MrNP1 and MrNP2 genes would suppress MrVg, VgR, and CyclinB gene expressions. The results indicate that the products of both genes can stimulate vitellogenesis by up-regulating the MrVg gene expression. Results from their difference in expression patterns indicate that they might have different regulatory roles in vitellogenin synthesis. Since gene silencing of either MrNP1 or MrNP2 affected the expression of the other NP, we have hypothesized that coordinated regulatory action between MrNP1 and MrNP2 may be necessary for the normal vitellogenesis in M. rosenbergii.

Oyster and Barnacle Recruitment Dynamics on and Near a Natural Reef in China: Implications for Oyster Reef Restoration - Wei Jiang; Wen-Jing Shi; Nan-Nan Li; Rui-Liang Fan; Wen-Kao Zhang; Wei-Min Quan (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Oysters and barnacles are dominant inhabitants of natural and restored oyster reefs around the world, and high areal coverage of barnacles at natural or restored reefs commonly decreases substrate accessibility for oyster settlement. The overall understanding of oyster and barnacle recruitment dynamics provides invaluable information on site selection and strategies employed for oyster reef restoration. This study documented the temporal and spatial patterns of oyster and barnacle recruitment on and near the largest natural intertidal oyster reef (Liyashan) in China during 2019–2020. The oyster Crassostrea sikamea recruitment appeared as a continuous process from June through late November or early December, with the peak in August. Greater recruits of oyster spat occurred on the sheltered inshore at the upstream of the natural oyster reef than on the reef and the nearby open coast ( p < 0.05). The barnacle recruitment extended from spring to early winter, with mid-spring and mid-summer peaks. Conversely, higher barnacle recruitment appeared on the natural oyster reef and the nearby open coast than on the sheltered inshore. Across all the monitoring sites, the cumulative recruits of oysters in each of 2019 and 2020 was negatively correlated with those of barnacles ( p < 0.05). The inshore sites (SH1 and SH2) with high oyster recruitment and low barnacle recruitment should be recognized as the natural spatfall sites for the natural oyster reef restoration. The separation in the recruitment peak between the oyster and the barnacle indicated that August was the most favorable window for capturing oyster spat through substratum addition to the water around the natural reef.

Remarkable effects of microbial factors on soil phosphorus bioavailability: A country‐scale study - Jing‐li Lu; Pu Jia; Shi‐wei Feng; Yu‐tao Wang; Jin Zheng; Shu‐ning Ou; Zhuo‐hui Wu; Bin Liao; Wen‐sheng Shu; Jie‐Liang Liang; Jin‐tian Li (Global Change Biology, 2022)
Low soil phosphorus (P) bioavailability causes the widespread occurrence of P‐limited terrestrial ecosystems around the globe. Exploring the factors influencing soil P bioavailability at large spatial scales is critical for managing these ecosystems. However, previous studies have mostly focused on abiotic factors. In this study, we explored the effects of microbial factors on soil P bioavailability of terrestrial ecosystems using a country‐scale sampling effort. Our results showed that soil microbial biomass carbon (MBC) and acid phosphatase were important predictors of soil P bioavailability of agro‐ and natural ecosystems across China although they appeared less important than total soil P. The two microbial factors had a positive effect on soil P bioavailability of both ecosystem types and were able to mediate the effects of several abiotic factors (e.g., mean annual temperature). Meanwhile, we revealed that soil phytase could affect soil P bioavailability at the country scale via ways similar to those of soil MBC and acid phosphatase, a pattern being more pronounced in agroecosystems than in natural ecosystems. Moreover, we obtained evidence for the positive effects of microbial genes encoding these enzymes on soil P bioavailability at the country scale although their effect sizes varied between the two ecosystem types. Taken together, this study demonstrated the remarkable effects of microbial factors on soil P bioavailability at a large spatial scale, highlighting the importance to consider microbial factors in managing the widespread P‐limited terrestrial ecosystems.

Hydrodynamic Responses of a Barge-Type Floating Offshore Wind Turbine Integrated with an Aquaculture Cage - Yuting Zhai; Haisheng Zhao; Xin Li; Wei Shi (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The dynamic responses of a new structure combining a barge-type floating offshore wind turbine and an aquaculture cage is investigated numerically. First, a 5 MW barge-type floating offshore wind turbine with an aquaculture cage (FOWT-AC) is designed and the numerical model is established in ANSYS-AQWA. The numerical model of the barge-type FOWT-AC is then checked, and the natural periods of the six degrees of freedom motion satisfy the recommendations of the DNV specification. Based on the reasonable model, the comparison study of dynamic responses between the barge-type FOWT-AC and FOWT under the environmental conditions of the South China Sea is carried out, and it is observed that the FOWT-AC produces a basically lower standard deviation of the motion responses. To investigate the new structure of the barge-type FOWT-AC deeply, the analyses of second-order hydrodynamic response, typical environmental conditions and the mooring line breaking scenario are carried out. The simulation results show that the second-order wave loads increase the dynamic response of the barge-type FOWT-AC slightly unless it causes resonance for the structure. In addition, the motion responses of the floating structures increase significantly when the currents are applied, especially when the aquaculture cage is integrated into the barge-type FOWT. When one of the mooring lines connected to the offshore or onshore side of the platform breaks, the presence of the aquaculture cage results in a smaller standard deviation in the motion responses of the coupled structure, which means that the barge-type FOWT-AC structure is more stable.

Sandstorms cause shrinkage of Haloxylon ammodendron shrubs and limit their self-renewal - Sheng-bo Shi; Dang-wei Zhou; Fang-lin Wang; Rui Shi; Tao Sun; Tian-cai Li; Jia-lin Ma; Xiang Wan; Jian-ping Ma; Jing-nian Tang (Theoretical and Experimental Plant Physiology, 2022)
Haloxylon ammodendron is an excellent windproof and sand-fixing species whose shrubs are widely cultivated in arid desert areas of northwest China but are now at risk of degradation and shrinkage. Using the chlorophyll fluorescence image analysis technique, the response of photosystem II (PSII) photochemical efficiency and non-photochemical quenching capacity to sediment-carrying wind and sand-free wind (both 12 m s −1 ) lasting for 10, 20, and 40 min were studied with seedlings in a wind tunnel. The results indicated that the sand-free wind had little influence on the maximum quantum efficiency of PSII photochemistry, F v / F m , which was approximately 0.80 on average; however, the F v / F m decreased over exposure time in the sediment-carrying wind group, with values smaller than those in the wind-only group. The non-photochemical quenching was sensitive to wind erosion, and sediment-carrying wind could aggravate the reduction in non-photochemical quenching ( NPQ ). Except for the 10 min duration, the maximum quantum efficiency of PSII photochemistry after dark recovery for 15 min, F v r / F m r , was lower in seedlings exposed to sediment-carrying wind than in those in the wind-only group. Compared to wind-only, wind-blown sand led to a water imbalance and withering in seedlings, causing the concentration of photosynthetic pigments (when based on the fresh mass of green branches) to not decrease. With a longer exposure time to sediment-carrying wind, both the probability and extent of lignified spots occurring increased in green assimilative branches. Our results demonstrated that sediment-carrying wind at 12 m s −1 lasting for 20 min or more could cause irreversible damage to the photosynthetic apparatus of H. ammodendron seedlings. Therefore, frequent and strong sandstorms are the main disturbance factors leading to shrinkage of shrubs and limiting their self-renewal.

Potential Application of Biosurfactant-Producing Bacteria for Bioremediation of Oil Polluted Marine Intertidal Sediments - Ping Guo; Wei-Wei Xu; Dan-Na Wei; Man-Xia Zhang; Jin Zhang; Shi Tang; Bin-Xia Cao; Jian-Guo Lin; Wei Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The removal of oil contaminants in marine intertidal sediments under cold climate is an urgent issue. Although the bioavailability of petroleum hydrocarbons decreases at low temperatures, biosurfactants can promote oil biodegradation. In this study, characteristics of biosurfactants produced by cold-adapted oil-degrading bacteria Planococcus sp. XW-1 were studied. Adding the XW-1 biosurfactant could effectively facilitate the solubility of phenanthrene, pyrene, diesel oil, and crude oil. The solubilization was limited by the number of rings and the molecular weight (WSRphenanthrene = 0.0234; WSRpyrene = 0.0165; WSRdiesel oil = 0.0027; WSRcrude oil = 0.0015). Additional biosurfactants significantly washed out crude oil adsorbed to the sand (reduction from 17.1%, 22.7% to 87.9% and 94.28% in 24 h). With the increase in particle size, the removal efficiency increased from 87.9% to 94.28%. After the addition of biosurfactant, the effect of degradation increased by 20% in 20 days. The results suggest that the biosurfactant-producing bacteria Planococcus sp. XW-1 is a promising candidate used in the in situ bioremediation of petroleum-contaminated intertidal sediment.

Study on the Individual Coloring Mechanism of Iridescent Cells in the Mantle of the Boring Giant Clam, Tridacna crocea - Yunqing Li; Yinyin Zhou; Jinkuan Wei; Gongpengyang Shi; Qingliang Liao; Shuming Guo; Zihua Zhou; Jun Li; Yanping Qin; Haitao Ma; Ziniu Yu; Yuehuan Zhang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Giant clams are marine bivalves that inhabit Indo-Pacific coral reefs. The boring giant clam, Tridacna crocea , exhibits bright and conspicuous mantle coloration based on the specialized cells (iridocytes) that generate structural colors. In order to illustrate the coloring mechanism of individual iridocytes, the reflection spectra curve of iridocytes was obtained by a micro-hyperspectral imager. TEM images were obtained to show the inner nanostructures of iridocytes. FDTD simulation was conducted to analyze the relationship between the color of iridocytes and the unique lamellar structure. We found that the laminae in the regular arrangement within cells govern the coloration of individual iridocytes. With the gradual increase of lamellar thickness and spacing, the color of the structure varies from bright violet to orange-red, forming a full visible spectrum. This study provides a new understanding of the various colors produced by individual iridocytes.

Alternative Splicing of the Lobster (Homarus americanus) Crustacean Hyperglycemic Hormone A and B Genes Produce 2 Protein Variants Involved in Vitellogenin Inhibition - Cheng Gui Wang; Wei Wang; Li Li Shi; Yu Chun Shen; Siuming F. Chan (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Current BLASTP search analysis results suggested that the lobster ( Homarus americanus ) HaCHH-A and HaCHH-B may be derived from two different four-exon genes. Repeated tissue expression studies have revealed much different expression patterns of these two genes from those reported in the past. With RT-PCR, rapid amplification of complementary DNA (cDNA) ends (RACE), and genomic DNA cloning, we confirmed that the HaCHH-A and HaCHH-B transcripts were derived from two different four-exon CHH genes. By an alternative splicing mechanism, each gene can produce different but larger transcript variants (i.e., sHaCHH-A and sHaCHH-B ) mainly in different non-eyestalk tissues of the females. The larger and unspliced transcripts can be detected in the hepatopancreas, gill, heart, nerve cord, brain, ovary, and thoracic ganglion of the reproductive females. The expression patterns of sHaCHH-A and sHaCHH-B in other non-eyestalk tissues suggest that these transcripts have a wide spectrum of expressions during the female reproductive cycle. An in vitro organ explant culture system was developed to investigate the reproductive function of these cDNAs. The results showed that the recombinant proteins for sHaCHH-A and sHaCHH-B inhibited the gene expression of vitellogenin, whereas the double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) for sHaCHH-A and sHaCHH-B stimulated the expression of the vitellogenin gene in vitro . The results of the study may provide insights for the development of techniques to induce gonad development without using eyestalk ablation operation. This is the first in-depth report of the characterization of two four-exon CHH genes in a crustacean.

Integrated Dynamics Response Analysis for IEA 10-MW Spar Floating Offshore Wind Turbine - Xiaojiang Guo; Yu Zhang; Jiatao Yan; Yiming Zhou; Shu Yan; Wei Shi; Xin Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Wind energy in the deep-sea area is more abundant and the capacity of wind turbines can be made larger. Therefore, the research on deep-sea floating offshore wind turbines will be the primary strategy for wind energy exploitation in the future. The spar-type platform depends on the characteristics of a small water plane, deep draft, and good stability, which has been applied to the commercial development of deep-sea wind energy. In the next ten years, the 10-MW wind turbine will become the mainstream class installed in the floating offshore wind turbine farm. Thus, it is very necessary to conduct a comprehensive and in-depth study on the 10-MW spar type floating offshore wind turbine. The direct-drive 10-MW offshore wind turbine was proposed by the International Energy Agency (IEA) in Wind Task 37 in 2019. In this paper, a spar-type platform is designed to support the IEA 10-MW reference wind turbines, and a nonlinear aero-hydro-servo-elastic numerical model is established using the FAST tool (which is developed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, NREL). Then, the accuracy of the wind turbine and the sensitivity of the controller are verified, and the natural periods of the floating offshore wind turbine are obtained by free-decay tests. The natural periods of the platform in six degrees-of-freedom are found to be within the range recommended by the design standard. The measured wind and wave data of the target site close to Fujian Province of China are used to evaluate the performance of the floating offshore wind turbine under the 100-, 50-, 5-, and 2-year-return stochastic weather conditions. The results indicate that the design of the spar platform is reasonable and has excellent hydrodynamic performance.

Dynamic Analysis of Monopile-Type Offshore Wind Turbine Under Sea Ice Coupling With Fluid-Structure Interaction - Yingzhou Liu; Wei Shi; Wenhua Wang; Xin Li; Shengwenjun Qi; Bin Wang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
The interaction between vertical offshore wind turbine (OWT) and sea ice with fluid is a complex process including local and global crushing of ice fragments and vibration of OWT. It is crucial to study the ice resistance of OWT structures considering the fluid-structure interaction (FSI). This article investigates a complete process of dynamic sea ice-monopile OWT interaction considering soil-structure interaction (SSI) and FSI effects. A fully coupled dynamic collision model of sea ice and OWT incorporating with the explicit non-linear collision tool ANSYS/LS-DYNA is proposed. The simulated ice loads in this study is verified by different simulation methods and international static ice force standards closely related to ice dynamic characteristic parameters. Then, the dynamic response and damage of the OWT structure during ice-structure interaction are studied using the fully interaction model with FSI coupling. The simulated ice force can produce a significant vibration response in the structure coupling with FSI due to occurrence of ice-induced resonance in the ice velocity range of 2.5–3.5 cm/s. Finally, the effect of fluid on the sea ice-OWT interaction in the initial velocity collision of sea ice is analyzed. FSI coupling can cause a certain level of collision hysteresis, accelerate the failure of sea ice breaking and reasonably reduce the energy of the structure.

Significant winter CO 2 uptake by saline lakes on the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau - Xiao‐Yan Li; Fang‐Zhong Shi; Yu‐Jun Ma; Shao‐Jie Zhao; Jun‐Qi Wei (Global Change Biology, 2022)
Direct measuring of CO 2 flux remains challenging for global lakes. The traditional sampling and gas transfer models used to estimate lake CO 2 fluxes are variable and uncertain, and ice‐covered periods are often excluded from the annual carbon budget. Here, the first longtime (2013−2017) direct measurement of CO 2 flux by eddy covariance system over the largest saline lake (Qinghai lake) in the Qinghai‐Tibet Plateau (QTP) revealed that ice‐covered period draws large amounts of CO 2 from the atmosphere (−0.87 ± 0.38 g C m −2 d −1 ), a value more than twice the CO 2 flux rate during the ice‐free period (−0.41 ± 0.35 g C m −2 d −1 ). The total CO 2 uptake by all saline lakes on the QTP was estimated to −10.28 ± 1.65 Tg C yr −1 , an equivalent to approximately one third of the net terrestrial ecosystems carbon sink in QTP. Our results indicate large sink for CO 2 in winter is controlled by both seasonal hydrochemistry processes and lake ice absorption in saline lakes. This research also demonstrates decreasing CO 2 uptake from the atmosphere by saline lakes on the QTP, which may turn carbon sinks to carbon sources with future warming.

Ecdysis Triggering Hormone, Eclosion Hormone, and Crustacean Cardioactive Peptide Play Essential but Different Roles in the Molting Process of Mud Crab, Scylla paramamosain - Yan-Fei Zhao; Qi-Qiao Wen; Chun-Mei Ao; Wei Wang; Li-Li Shi; Cheng-Gui Wang; Siuming-Francis Chan (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Molting behavior in insects is controlled by the ecdysis triggering hormone (ETH), eclosion hormone (EH) and the crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP). At present, the regulation of molting behavior in crustaceans remains unclear. Here, we studied the roles of ETH , EH , and CCAP in the molt regulation of the crab, Scylla paramamosain from their expression pattern and in vivo assays. The results showed that transcripts of ETH , EH , and CCAP were mainly localized in thoracic ganglia and fluctuated periodically with the molting cycle. When ETH or CCAP was knockdown at early premolt stage (D0), molting of crabs was interrupted and all animals died at late premolt stage (D2). While the EH gene was knock-down, most crabs were dead before D2. Injection of synthetic peptide for ETH or CCAP rescued ETH - or CCAP -gene knock-down crabs separately. However, none of peptides could rescue dsEH -injected crabs. At D0 stage, knockdown of ETH down-regulated the transcriptions of EH and CCAP ; while ETH was up-regulated when EH was knockdown. At D2 stage, ETH transcripts levels were reduced with the injection of dsEH but increased with the same dose of dsETH as crabs at D0 stage. Co-injection of ds ETH and ds EH down-regulated ETH at D2 stage. Results showed that ETH , EH , and CCAP play essential but different roles in molt regulation in mud crab. In summary, the result of this study contributes to the discovery of different molecular mechanisms between Insecta and Crustacea and may provide insight to develop fishery drugs that helps aquacultured crustaceans to molt successfully.

Investigation on a Large-Scale Braceless-TLP Floating Offshore Wind Turbine at Intermediate Water Depth - Yiming Zhou; Yajun Ren; Wei Shi; Xin Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Tension leg platform (TLP) is a cost-effective and high-performance support structure for floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) because of its small responses in heave, pitch, and roll with the constraint of the tendons. China, as the largest market of offshore wind energy, has shown a demand for developing reliable, viable floating platform support structures, especially aiming at the intermediate water depth. The present paper described a newly proposed 10-MW Braceless-TLP FOWT designed for a moderate water depth of 60 m. The numerical simulations of the FOWT are carried out using the coupled aero-hydro-servo-elastic-mooring calculation tool FAST. The measured wind and wave data of the target site close to the Fujian Province of China were used to evaluate the performance of the FOWT under the 100-, 50-, 5-, and 2-year-return stochastic weather conditions. The natural periods of the platform in surge, sway, heave, pitch, roll, and yaw were found to be within the range recommended by the design standard DNV-RP-0286 Coupled Analysis of Floating Wind Turbines. The largest surge of the water depth ratio among all the load cases was 15%, which was smaller than the admissible ratio of 23%. The tower top displacements remained between −1 m and 1 m, which were at a similar order to those of a 10-MW monopile-supported offshore wind turbine. The six tendons remained tensioned during the simulation, even under the operational and extreme (parked) environmental conditions. The Braceless-TLP FOWT showed an overall satisfying performance in terms of the structural stability and illustrates the feasibility of this type of FOWT at such a moderate water depth.

Modelling deep convective activity using lightning clusters and machine learning - Manxing Shi; Wei Zhang; Peng Fan; Qihao Chen; Zhipeng Liu; Qin Li; Xiuguo Liu (International Journal of Climatology, 2022)
Retrieving thunderstorm activity through specific thermodynamic and kinematic parameters is paramount for predicting deep convective weather and investigating long‐term climatology of storm. However, the reliability of the relationship between parameters and convective events is restricted by the modelling methods and sampling of thunderstorm activity. There is no objective definition of a thunderstorm, so the clustering method is applied to the cloud‐to‐ground (CG) lightning stroke data in Central China to identify lightning clusters. These clusters are then gridded and associated with environmental variables derived from ERA5 reanalysis. Finally, machine learning (ML) technologies are applied to model the occurrence of thunderstorms. In addition, ERA5 is also evaluated. The parameters related to moisture and lapse rate calculated by ERA5 are close to sounding measurements, such as Td850, PW, LR700_400 and KI, whose correlation coefficients exceed 0.90. ERA5 has a good estimation of some parameters that are susceptible to the influence of the boundary layer. Compared with the lightning strike‐based scheme, our scheme obtains the best performance index values. An agreement between observations and predictions based on lightning clusters is also evident from the diurnal cycle of thunderstorm probabilities. Although thunderstorm activity on complex terrain is underestimated, the created ML model can explain 61.4% of the variance in the observed frequency. The results of the significance test reveal that there are statistically significant differences between the soundings corresponding to some isolated CG strikes and the thunderstorm class, but the distribution is the same as that of the non‐thunderstorm class. Solar radiation, topographic features and lake distribution play a major role in promoting the occurrence and development of thunderstorms.

Wind–Wave Coupling Effect on the Dynamic Response of a Combined Wind–Wave Energy Converter - Jinghui Li; Wei Shi; Lixian Zhang; Constantine Michailides; Xin Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
There is a huge energy demand from offshore renewable energy resources. To maximize the use of various renewable energy sources, a combined floating energy system consisting of different types of energy devices is an ideal option to reduce the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) by sharing the infrastructure of the platform and enhancing the power production capacity. This study proposed a combined concept of energy systems by combing a heave-type wave energy converter (WEC) with a semisubmersible floating wind turbine. In order to investigate the power performance and dynamic response of the combined concept, coupled aero-hydro-servo-elastic analysis was carried out using the open-source code F2A, which is based on the coupling of the FAST and AQWA tools by integrating all the possible environmental loadings (e.g., aerodynamic, hydrodynamic). Numerical results obtained by AQWA are used to verify the accuracy of the coupled model in F2A in predicting dynamic responses of the combined system. The main hydrodynamic characteristics of the combined system under typical operational conditions were examined, and the calculated responses (motions, mooring line tension and produced wave power) are discussed. Additionally, the effect of aerodynamic damping on the dynamic response of the combined system was examined and presented. Moreover, a second fully coupled analysis model was developed, and its response predictions were compared with the predictions of the model developed with F2A in order for the differences of the calculated responses resulted by the different modeling techniques to be discussed and explained. Finally, the survivability of the combined concept has been examined for different possible proposed survival modes.

Dynamic Responses for WindFloat Floating Offshore Wind Turbine at Intermediate Water Depth Based on Local Conditions in China - Shan Gao; Lixian Zhang; Wei Shi; Bin Wang; Xin Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
Offshore wind energy, a clean energy resource, is considered to be a possible alternative to fossil energy. Floating offshore wind technology is considered to be a proper concept to develop abundant wind energy in deep water. Considering the reality of offshore wind energy development in China, the floating offshore wind turbine concept is expected to be developed at moderate water depths. In this paper, a mooring system of the WindFloat semisubmersible floating offshore wind turbine (SFOWT) at a water depth of 60 m is designed. The dynamic responses of the WindFloat SFOWT under different wind–wave combination conditions are investigated using the coupled method and the simplified method, which do not include the effect of the tower top motion in the aerodynamic calculation. The results show that the dynamic responses of the WindFloat SFOWT, including the platform motions, tower loads, and mooring line tensions, perform fairly well at a moderate water depth. A comparison between the coupled method and simplified method shows that the calculated results are slightly different between the different conditions for the time domain results, response spectra results, and fatigue results. In addition, mooring line 1 (ML 1) suffers higher fatigue damage than ML2, which should be paid more attention.

(Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
According to the RGB law display, the polymorphism of the giant clam mantle color pattern is through four iridocytes. The boring giant clam ( Tridacna crocea ) exhibits diverse mantle colors, including blue, green, purple, gold, and orange. In order to evaluate the genetic laws driving these mantle color patterns, a complete diallel cross between two color strains [blue strain (only blue iridocyte) and the yellow-green strain (yellow and green iridocytes)] was performed. Using a single-to-single mating system, two intra-strain crosses (BB and YY) and two reciprocal inter-strain crosses (BY and YB) were produced in triplicates. Higher fertilization rate and hatching rate were observed in all experimental groups, suggesting that there was no sperm–egg recognition barrier between the two strains. In the grow-out stage, the size of the reciprocal hybrids was larger than that of the two pure strains with a degree of heterosis. In addition, compared with the two pure strains, the hybrids have higher larval metamorphosis rate and higher survival rate. At 1 year of age, the mantle color pattern of pure strains showed 100% stable inheritance, while the reciprocal hybrids exhibited colorful patterns (a combination of blue, yellow, and green), suggesting that there was a genetic recombination of the mantle colors during the stable expression period. These results provide a theoretical basis for the formation of the mantle color of giant clam and its genetic segregation law, as well as provide guidance for genetic breeding of giant clams.

Postsynaptic Targeting and Mobility of Membrane Surface-Localized hASIC1a - Xing-Lei Song; Di-Shi Liu; Min Qiang; Qian Li; Ming-Gang Liu; Wei-Guang Li; Xin Qi; Nan-Jie Xu; Guang Yang; Michael Xi Zhu; Tian-Le Xu (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2021)
Acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs), the main H + receptors in the central nervous system, sense extracellular pH fluctuations and mediate cation influx. ASIC1a, the major subunit responsible for acid-activated current, is widely expressed in brain neurons, where it plays pivotal roles in diverse functions including synaptic transmission and plasticity. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms for these functions remain mysterious. Using extracellular epitope tagging and a novel antibody recognizing the hASIC1a ectodomain, we examined the membrane targeting and dynamic trafficking of hASIC1a in cultured cortical neurons. Surface hASIC1a was distributed throughout somata and dendrites, clustered in spine heads, and co-localized with postsynaptic markers. By extracellular pHluorin tagging and fluorescence recovery after photobleaching, we detected movement of hASIC1a in synaptic spine heads. Single-particle tracking along with use of the anti-hASIC1a ectodomain antibody revealed long-distance migration and local movement of surface hASIC1a puncta on dendrites. Importantly, enhancing synaptic activity with brain-derived neurotrophic factor accelerated the trafficking and lateral mobility of hASIC1a. With this newly-developed toolbox, our data demonstrate the synaptic location and high dynamics of functionally-relevant hASIC1a on the surface of excitatory synapses, supporting its involvement in synaptic functions.

BCC-ESM1 Model Datasets for the CMIP6 Aerosol Chemistry Model Intercomparison Project (AerChemMIP) - Jie Zhang; Tongwen Wu; Fang Zhang; Kalli Furtado; Xiaoge Xin; Xueli Shi; Jianglong Li; Min Chu; Li Zhang; Qianxia Liu; Jinghui Yan; Min Wei; et al. (Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, 2021)
BCC-ESM1 is the first version of the Beijing Climate Center’s Earth System Model, and is participating in phase 6 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6). The Aerosol Chemistry Model Intercomparison Project (AerChemMIP) is the only CMIP6-endorsed MIP in which BCC-ESM1 is involved. All AerChemMIP experiments in priority 1 and seven experiments in priorities 2 and 3 have been conducted. The DECK (Diagnostic, Evaluation and Characterization of Klima) and CMIP historical simulations have also been run as the entry card of CMIP6. The AerChemMIP outputs from BCC-ESM1 have been widely used in recent atmospheric chemistry studies. To facilitate the use of the BCC-ESM1 datasets, this study describes the experiment settings and summarizes the model outputs in detail. Preliminary evaluations of BCC-ESM1 are also presented, revealing that: the climate sensitivities of BCC-ESM1 are well within the likely ranges suggested by IPCC AR5; the spatial structures of annual mean surface air temperature and precipitation can be reasonably captured, despite some common precipitation biases as in CMIP5 and CMIP6 models; a spurious cooling bias from the 1960s to 1990s is evident in BCC-ESM1, as in most other ESMs; and the mean states of surface sulfate concentrations can also be reasonably reproduced, as well as their temporal evolution at regional scales. These datasets have been archived on the Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) node for atmospheric chemistry studies.

Experimental evidence for long‐term coexistence of copiotrophic and oligotrophic bacteria in pelagic surface seawater - Yi Li; Zhi‐Bin Wang; Xi‐Ying Zhang; Yan‐Ru Dang; Lin‐Lin Sun; Wei‐Peng Zhang; Hui‐Hui Fu; Gui‐Peng Yang; Min Wang; Andrew McMinn; Xiu‐Lan Chen; Yin Chen; et al. (Environmental Microbiology, 2021)
Summary Most marine copiotrophic bacteria can produce extracellular enzymes to degrade biopolymers into bio‐available smaller solutes, while oligotrophic bacteria usually cannot. Bacterial extracellular enzymes and enzymatic products can be a common resource that could be utilized by both copiotrophs and oligotrophs; when present, oligotrophs may outcompete the enzyme‐producing copiotrophs. However, copiotrophs and oligotrophs consistently coexist in the ocean. How they maintain coexistence has still not been experimentally studied. In this study, the interaction and coexistence of a copiotroph and an oligotroph, isolated from the same surface seawater sample and utilizing the same proteinaceous substrate, were experimentally investigated. The copiotroph could secrete extracellular proteases to degrade and then utilize the proteinaceous substrate. The oligotroph was unable to utilize the proteinaceous substrate by itself, but could grow by using the hydrolysate amino acids. The copiotroph outcompeted the oligotroph by adsorbing the amino acids quickly and having a higher growth rate in the rich medium. The oligotroph survived by adapting to low concentration of nutrients. The copiotroph and oligotroph were able to maintain long‐term (up to 142 days) coexistence in the laboratory. This study indicates that differences in the utilization of different concentrations of nutrients can drive the coexistence of marine copiotrophs and oligotrophs.

Transforming the coal and steel nexus for China's eco‐civilization: Interplay between rail and energy infrastructure - Qian Zhang; Christopher Kennedy; Tao Wang; Wendong Wei; Jiashuo Li; Lei Shi (Journal of Industrial Ecology, 2020)
China's 2050 high renewable energy penetration (HREP) scenario is a roadmap for deep decarbonization. This promising strategy, deploying wind and solar energy, will also reshape other infrastructure sectors. With decarbonization, not only can capital be diverted away from fossil fuel infrastructure toward green power generation, but considerable savings in future transport infrastructure sectors could be achieved because fossil fuels no longer need to be transported. Here, we conduct a material flow analysis with a focus on the central role of transportation to examine the interlinkages of coal and steel flows in China's infrastructure sectors between 1985, 2015, and 2050. We define the coal and steel nexus to be a system perspective that captures the interdependence and the critical linkages between these two resources. Our results show that the coal and steel nexus in China strengthened in the past three decades but could face transitional changes to 2050. The peak time of both coal and steel demand for China is expected to come before 2030. Consequentially, the volume of rail freight for the carriage of three main types of bulk cargo (coal, iron ores, and steel products) declines from ∼2,000 megatons (Mt) in 2015 to ∼700 Mt in 2050 under the HREP scenario with the two‐fold planned growth of railway infrastructure. However, investment in cleaner energy and steelmaking technologies will help China mainly rely on secondary steel resources to maintain domestic demand in 2050, further reducing the demand for coal and iron ores.
