Stratospheric Ozone-induced Cloud Radiative Effects on Antarctic Sea Ice - Yan Xia; Yongyun Hu; Jiping Liu; Yi Huang; Fei Xie; Jintai Lin (Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, 2020)
Recent studies demonstrate that the Antarctic Ozone Hole has important influences on Antarctic sea ice. While most of these works have focused on effects associated with atmospheric and oceanic dynamic processes caused by stratospheric ozone changes, here we show that stratospheric ozone-induced cloud radiative effects also play important roles in causing changes in Antarctic sea ice. Our simulations demonstrate that the recovery of the Antarctic Ozone Hole causes decreases in clouds over Southern Hemisphere (SH) high latitudes and increases in clouds over the SH extratropics. The decrease in clouds leads to a reduction in downward infrared radiation, especially in austral autumn. This results in cooling of the Southern Ocean surface and increasing Antarctic sea ice. Surface cooling also involves ice-albedo feedback. Increasing sea ice reflects solar radiation and causes further cooling and more increases in Antarctic sea ice.

Alpine grassland plants grow earlier and faster but biomass remains unchanged over 35 years of climate change - Hao Wang; Huiying Liu; Guangmin Cao; Zhiyuan Ma; Yikang Li; Fawei Zhang; Xia Zhao; Xinquan Zhao; Lin Jiang; Nathan J. Sanders; Aimée T. Classen; Jin‐Sheng He (Ecology Letters, 2020)
Satellite data indicate significant advancement in alpine spring phenology over decades of climate warming, but corresponding field evidence is scarce. It is also unknown whether this advancement results from an earlier shift of phenological events, or enhancement of plant growth under unchanged phenological pattern. By analyzing a 35‐year dataset of seasonal biomass dynamics of a Tibetan alpine grassland, we show that climate change promoted both earlier phenology and faster growth, without changing annual biomass production. Biomass production increased in spring due to a warming‐induced earlier onset of plant growth, but decreased in autumn due mainly to increased water stress. Plants grew faster but the fast‐growing period shortened during the mid‐growing season. These findings provide the first in situ evidence of long‐term changes in growth patterns in alpine grassland plant communities, and suggest that earlier phenology and faster growth will jointly contribute to plant growth in a warming climate.

l-Arginine alleviates heat stress-induced intestinal epithelial barrier damage by promoting expression of tight junction proteins via the AMPK pathway - Zhaofei Xia; Liqing Huang; Peng Yin; Fenghua Liu; Yanhan Liu; Zhenbiao Zhang; Jiabao Lin; Wenshu Zou; Chunxiao Li (Molecular Biology Reports, 2019)
Heat stress (HS) and secondary restricted blood flow to the intestines cause dysfunction of the intestinal epithelial barrier. Tight junctions (TJs) are essential to maintain intestinal integrity. l -Arginine has beneficial effects on gut functions. However, the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. This study tested the hypothesis that l -arginine regulates the TJ network by activating AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling, which in turn improves intestinal barrier functions under HS. IEC-6 cells and rat small intestines were used as experiment models of heat stress. AICAR and dorsomorphin were used to activate and inhibit the AMPK pathway, respectively. Cell proliferation, apoptosis, differential gene expression and KEGG pathway analysis, intestinal paracellular permeability, intestinal morphology, and expression of HSP and TJ proteins, and p-AMPK were determined. l -Arginine promoted cell proliferation and reduced apoptosis after heat exposure at an optimal concentration of 5 mmol. Transcriptome sequencing analysis revealed that differentially expressed genes associated with the HSP family and TJs were elevated by l -arginine. According to KEGG pathway analysis, l -arginine activated the AMPK signaling pathway. In vivo, intestinal damage resulted in obvious morphological changes as well as apoptosis with TUNEL and caspase-3 staining under HS and dorsomorphin treatments. Furthermore, HS and dorsomorphin increased the serum D-lactate concentration, diamine oxidase activity, and mRNA expression level of MLCK ( P < 0.05). In contrast, l -arginine and AICAR treatments reduced intestinal injury, maintained intestinal permeability, and increased the villus/crypt ratio under hyperthermia. l -Arginine had the same effect as AICAR both in vitro and in vivo, namely increasing p-AMPK protein expression. l -Arginine and AICAR also upregulated the mRNA expression level of HSP70 and HSP90, and downregulated mRNA expression of MLCK ( P < 0.05). The protein expression levels of TJ proteins ZO-1 and claudin-1 were suppressed by heat stroke and dorsomorphin, but enhanced by l -arginine and AICAR. Our findings indicate that activation of AMPK signaling by l -arginine is associated with improved intestinal mucosal barrier functions by enhancing the expression of TJs in rat small intestines and IEC-6 cells during HS.

Phylogeny and taxonomic reassessment of jerboa, Dipus (Rodentia, Dipodinae), in inland Asia - Jilong Cheng; Deyan Ge; Lin Xia; Zhixin Wen; Qian Zhang; Liang Lu; Qisen Yang (Zoologica Scripta, 2018)
Deserts and arid regions are perceived to have low biological and genetic diversity, which has partially influenced the identification of psammophilic species, especially taxonomic inferences based on morphology alone. Recent studies of Dipus sagitta have revealed clear, deep genetic divergence beyond the species level within this monotypic genus. To clarify the taxonomy of Dipus , we examined a morphometric dataset consisting of 191 voucher specimens covering nearly the entire distribution of the genus to explore skull variation using traditional morphological measurements and geometric morphometric analysis. Phylogenetic relationships within Dipus using two mitochondrial genes ( n = 383) and six nuclear genes ( n = 106) were assessed by Bayesian inference and maximum‐likelihood procedures. We used a “candidate species approach” with the divergent mt DNA phylogenetic groups and subspecies identified in previous studies as the starting point and analysed the candidates using five species delimitation methods and two validation methods. Our findings indicate that Dipus can be divided into four phylogenetic groups that include two species: the Deasyi group ( D. deasyi ), Sagitta group, Sowerbyi group and Turanicus group ( D. sagitta ). According to the morphological analyses and the examined specimens, pelage colour varies significantly with season and age, making it unsuitable as a diagnostic characteristic of the subspecies. Furthermore, measurements of body size and skull size require a large number of specimens to reach statistical significance and obtain reliable results. Geographical distributions should be considered first when identifying species or subspecies due to the disjunct habitats of Dipus . Our molecular analyses revealed the long‐neglected potential diversity in arid regions and improved the efficiency of species/subspecies identification. We also found that individuals from more humid areas or higher altitudes were larger, whereas individuals from drier areas possessed longer appendages and larger tympanic bulla.

Successional change in species composition alters climate sensitivity of grassland productivity - Zheng Shi; Yang Lin; Kevin R. Wilcox; Lara Souza; Lifen Jiang; Jiang Jiang; Chang Gyo Jung; Xia Xu; Mengting Yuan; Xue Guo; Liyou Wu; Jizhong Zhou; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2018)
Succession theory predicts altered sensitivity of ecosystem functions to disturbance (i.e., climate change) due to the temporal shift in plant community composition. However, empirical evidence in global change experiments is lacking to support this prediction. Here, we present findings from an 8‐year long‐term global change experiment with warming and altered precipitation manipulation (double and halved amount). First, we observed a temporal shift in species composition over 8 years, resulting in a transition from an annual C 3 ‐dominant plant community to a perennial C 4 ‐dominant plant community. This successional transition was independent of any experimental treatments. During the successional transition, the response of aboveground net primary productivity ( ANPP ) to precipitation addition magnified from neutral to +45.3%, while the response to halved precipitation attenuated substantially from −17.6% to neutral. However, warming did not affect ANPP in either state. The findings further reveal that the time‐dependent climate sensitivity may be regulated by successional change in species composition, highlighting the importance of vegetation dynamics in regulating the response of ecosystem productivity to precipitation change.

Global environmental costs of China's thirst for milk - Zhaohai Bai; Michael R. F. Lee; Lin Ma; Stewart Ledgard; Oene Oenema; Gerard L. Velthof; Wenqi Ma; Mengchu Guo; Zhanqing Zhao; Sha Wei; Shengli Li; Xia Liu; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2018)
China has an ever‐increasing thirst for milk, with a predicted 3.2‐fold increase in demand by 2050 compared to the production level in 2010. What are the environmental implications of meeting this demand, and what is the preferred pathway? We addressed these questions by using a nexus approach, to examine the interdependencies of increasing milk consumption in China by 2050 and its global impacts, under different scenarios of domestic milk production and importation. Meeting China's milk demand in a business as usual scenario will increase global dairy‐related (China and the leading milk exporting regions) greenhouse gas ( GHG ) emissions by 35% (from 565 to 764 Tg CO 2eq ) and land use for dairy feed production by 32% (from 84 to 111 million ha) compared to 2010, while reactive nitrogen losses from the dairy sector will increase by 48% (from 3.6 to 5.4 Tg nitrogen). Producing all additional milk in China with current technology will greatly increase animal feed import; from 1.9 to 8.5 Tg for concentrates and from 1.0 to 6.2 Tg for forage (alfalfa). In addition, it will increase domestic dairy related GHG emissions by 2.2 times compared to 2010 levels. Importing the extra milk will transfer the environmental burden from China to milk exporting countries; current dairy exporting countries may be unable to produce all additional milk due to physical limitations or environmental preferences/legislation. For example, the farmland area for cattle‐feed production in New Zealand would have to increase by more than 57% (1.3 million ha) and that in Europe by more than 39% (15 million ha), while GHG emissions and nitrogen losses would increase roughly proportionally with the increase of farmland in both regions. We propose that a more sustainable dairy future will rely on high milk demanding regions (such as China) improving their domestic milk and feed production efficiencies up to the level of leading milk producing countries. This will decrease the global dairy related GHG emissions and land use by 12% (90 Tg CO 2eq reduction) and 30% (34 million ha land reduction) compared to the business as usual scenario, respectively. However, this still represents an increase in total GHG emissions of 19% whereas land use will decrease by 8% when compared with 2010 levels, respectively.

Occurrence of 25 pharmaceuticals in Taihu Lake and their removal from two urban drinking water treatment plants and a constructed wetland - Xia-Lin Hu; Yi-Fan Bao; Jun-Jian Hu; You-Yu Liu; Da-Qiang Yin (Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2017)
Pharmaceuticals in drinking water sources have raised significant concerns due to their persistent input and potential human health risks. The seasonal occurrence of 25 pharmaceuticals including 23 antibiotics, paracetamol (PAR), and carbamazepine (CMZ) in Taihu Lake was investigated; meanwhile, the distribution and removal of these pharmaceuticals in two drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) and a constructed wetland were evaluated. A high detection frequency (>70%) in the Taihu Lake was observed for nearly all the 25 pharmaceutics. Chlortetracycline (234.7 ng L −1 ), chloramphenicol (27.1 ng L −1 ), erythromycin (72.6 ng L −1 ), PAR (71.7 ng L −1 ), and CMZP (23.6 ng L −1 ) are compounds with both a high detection frequency (100%) and the highest concentrations, suggesting their wide use in the Taihu Basin. Higher concentrations of chloramphenicols, macrolides, PAR, and CMZP were observed in dry season than in wet season, probably due to the low flow conditions of the lake in winter and the properties of pharmaceuticals. The overall contamination levels of antibiotic pharmaceutics (0.2–74.9 ng L −1 ) in the Taihu Lake were lower than or comparable to those reported worldwide. However, for nonantibiotic pharmaceutics, PAR (45.0 ng L −1 ) and CMZP (14.5 ng L −1 ), significantly higher concentrations were observed in the Taihu Lake than at a global scale. High detection frequencies of 25 pharmaceuticals were observed in both the two DWTPs (100%) and the wetland (>60%) except for florfenicol and sulfapyridine. The removal efficacies of the studied pharmaceuticals in DWTP B with advanced treatment processes including ozonation and granular activated carbon filtration (16.7–100%) were superior to DWTP A with conventional treatment processes (2.9–100%), except for sulfonamides. Wetland C with the constructed root channel technology was efficient (24.2–100%) for removing most pharmaceuticals. This work suggests that the application of cost-effective technologies such as constructed wetlands should be considered as an efficient alternative for removing pharmaceuticals from water supply sources.

Daytime warming lowers community temporal stability by reducing the abundance of dominant, stable species - Zhongling Yang; Qian Zhang; Fanglong Su; Chunhui Zhang; Zhichao Pu; Jianyang Xia; Shiqiang Wan; Lin Jiang (Global Change Biology, 2017)
Daytime warming and nighttime warming have the potential to influence plant community structure and ecosystem functions. However, their impacts on ecological stability remain largely unexplored. We conducted an eight‐year field experiment to compare the effects of daytime and nighttime warming on the temporal stability of a temperate steppe in northern China. Our results showed that the cover and stability of dominant species, stability of subordinate species, and compensatory dynamics among species strongly influenced community‐level stability. However, daytime, but not nighttime, warming significantly reduced community temporal stability mainly through the reduction in the abundance of dominant, stable species. These findings demonstrate the differential effects of daytime and nighttime warming on community stability and emphasize the importance of understanding the changes of dominant species for accurately predicting community dynamics under climate warming.

Multiscale partitioning of small mammal β‐diversity provides novel insights into the Quaternary faunal history of Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau and Hengduan Mountains - Zhixin Wen; Qisen Yang; Qing Quan; Lin Xia; Deyan Ge; Xue Lv (Journal of Biogeography, 2016)
Aim To assess the validity of four hypothesized drivers (Quaternary climate, niche conservatism, contemporary climate, spatial configuration) of small mammal beta diversity in the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau ( QTP ) and the Hengduan Mountains ( HDM ). Location QTP and HDM of China. Methods We partitioned the beta diversity of small mammals in QTP and HDM into the spatial turnover and nestedness components at the regional (longitudinal/latitudinal zones) and grid (1° × 1°) scales. Regional beta diversity was evaluated by calculating the multiple‐site dissimilarities and the distance‐dissimilarity relationships. We examined the relative effects of geographical distance, environmental difference, habitat diversity, geographical isolation and Quaternary climate stability on the beta diversity patterns. Results The overall beta diversity in all longitudinal/latitudinal zones of both regions was primarily driven by spatial turnover, longitudinal nestedness patterns were almost non‐existent in QTP . Turnover was stronger in the latitudinal direction of QTP and in the longitudinal direction of HDM , which corresponded to the general topography of each region. At the grid scale, higher turnover was primarily concentrated in mountainous areas. Turnover was highly correlated with geographical distance and environmental difference in both regions, and geographical isolation was another strong predictor of turnover in HDM . Habitat diversity independently explained most of the variation in nestedness of HDM . Main conclusions Spatial turnover is the primary cause of the small mammal beta diversity in QTP and HDM . Three non‐exclusive mechanisms including the historic effect of past glaciation, contemporary climate and spatial configuration of the landscape might act in combination to shape the beta diversity patterns in QTP and HDM , particularly the directional patterns. Our results challenge the prevailing view that the current distribution of QTP fauna is primarily explained by westward post‐glacial recolonization, and support the alternative idea that QTP retained considerable refugia and even centres of origin during the Quaternary glaciations.

Unchanged carbon balance driven by equivalent responses of production and respiration to climate change in a mixed‐grass prairie - Xia Xu; Zheng Shi; Xuecheng Chen; Yang Lin; Shuli Niu; Lifen Jiang; Ruiseng Luo; Yiqi Luo (Global Change Biology, 2016)
Responses of grassland carbon (C) cycling to climate change and land use remain a major uncertainty in model prediction of future climate. To explore the impacts of global change on ecosystem C fluxes and the consequent changes in C storage, we have conducted a field experiment with warming (+3 °C), altered precipitation (doubled and halved), and annual clipping at the end of growing seasons in a mixed‐grass prairie in Oklahoma, USA , from 2009 to 2013. Results showed that although ecosystem respiration ( ER ) and gross primary production ( GPP ) negatively responded to warming, net ecosystem exchange of CO 2 ( NEE ) did not significantly change under warming. Doubled precipitation stimulated and halved precipitation suppressed ER and GPP equivalently, with the net outcome being unchanged in NEE . These results indicate that warming and altered precipitation do not necessarily have profound impacts on ecosystem C storage. In addition, we found that clipping enhanced NEE due to a stronger positive response of GPP compared to ER , indicating that clipping could potentially be an effective land practice that could increase C storage. No significant interactions between warming, altered precipitation, and clipping were observed. Meanwhile, we found that belowground net primary production ( BNPP ) in general was sensitive to climate change and land use though no significant changes were found in NPP across treatments. Moreover, negative correlations of the ER / GPP ratio with soil temperature and moisture did not differ across treatments, highlighting the roles of abiotic factors in mediating ecosystem C fluxes in this grassland. Importantly, our results suggest that belowground C cycling (e.g., BNPP ) could respond to climate change with no alterations in ecosystem C storage in the same period.

The white‐bellied rat, Niviventer , is a genus endemic to Southeast Asia and China. However, the interspecific phylogenetic relationships and species diversity of this genus remain poorly understood. In the present study, single and multi‐locus analyses were performed. Phylogenetic reconstruction on Cytochrome b (512 individuals, including data from Genbank) revealed five major clades with approximately 35 operational taxonomic units ( OTU s), a number twice the existing taxonomy. The first clade ( N . langbianis species group) was the earliest diverged. The second clade ( N. fulvescens species group) diverged in Southeast Asia, the south and lower altitude regions of the Hengduan Mountains, and Southeast China. The third clade (the N. eha species group) is endemic to high altitudes in Northwest Yunnan and the central region of Himalaya. The fourth clade (the N. andersoni species group), is mainly confined to alpine regions of the Hengduan Mountains. The fifth clade ( N . confucianus species group) is mainly distributed in the north and higher altitude regions of eastern Himalaya, the Hengduan Mountains and Taiwan, with the complex also invading central and northern China. Results from the combined dataset of four genes (Cytochrome b, Cytochrome oxidase subunit I, the D‐loop sequence of the mitochondrial genome and the first exon of the nuclear interphotoreceptor retinoid binding protein) for 82 representative individuals from China generally coincide with the result of the single gene, with 12 OTU s identified. These results provide a preliminary framework for the existing classification of this highly diversified genus. The divergence time of Niviventer based on the four gene topology was dated to the late Miocene ~6.41 Ma. Significant differences were detected in the general body form changes among these units based on voucher specimens. Moreover, geometric morphometric analysis of the cranium shape of voucher specimens indicated significant differences among five major species groups. Shape divergence of the cranium among several OTU s within the N. confucinaus complex is also significant. Our results provide further evidence for rapid and highly underestimated diversification of Niviventer both in genetics and morphology.
