Numerical and Experimental Investigations on Hydrodynamic Performance of a Newly Designed Deep Bottom Trawl - Qinglong Guan; Wenbin Zhu; Aizhong Zhou; Yongjin Wang; Weiyao Tang; Rong Wan (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
In this paper, a new type of bottom trawl was designed for target fishing vessels to use in deep-water fishing grounds. The trawl’s hydrodynamic performance was investigated using numerical simulation and physical modeling methods, and a numerical model based on the finite element method was proposed for estimating hydrodynamic forces and predicting performances. A series of physical model tests based on Tauti’s law were carried out in a towing tank to explore the hydrodynamic performance of the trawl and to assess the applicability of the numerical simulation method. The results showed that the working towing speed of the trawl was 3.5 kn. The drag force and the height of net opening were 50 kN and 5.62 m, respectively, and the swept area was 128 m 2 at that speed. The simulated result was close to the experimental result, with a maximum relative error less than 20%, and an average relative error of 10%. The net shape and tension distribution of the trawl were analyzed using the numerical simulation method, and the hanging ratio in T-direction of the mesh of the codend was 0.25 at the working towing speed. The newly designed deep bottom trawl had a superior hydrodynamic performance for high catch efficiency and selectivity and may be applied to commercial fishing operations.

Influence of water vapor distribution on the simulated track of Typhoon Hato (2017) - Jiaxin Chen; Chuying Mai; Mingsen Zhou; Shumin Chen; Weibiao Li; Rong Fang; Zhongkuo Zhao (Natural Hazards, 2021)
Predicting tropical cyclone (TCs) tracks is a primary concern in TC forecasting. Some TCs appear to move in a direction favorable for their development, beyond the influence of the steering flow. Thus, we hypothesize that TCs move toward regions with high water-vapor content in the lower atmosphere. In this study, four numerical experiments, including a control experiment and three sensitivity experiments, were performed using the Weather Research and Forecasting Model, to analyze the relationship between water vapor distribution and the track of Severe Typhoon Hato (2017). Observations validated the features reproduced in the control experiment. The sensitivity experiments were conducted to explore variations in the TC track under different water vapor environments. Results indicate that the horizontal distribution of water-vapor content exerted a greater impact on the TC track than the steering flow when both factors were significant. Further analysis revealed that the TC’s movement vector was between the direction of the steering flow and the direction toward the peak of vorticity increasing area. The peaks of vorticity increasing area were close to the peaks of water vapor increasing area, which also proved the effect of water vapor distribution on the TC track. These results are expected to improve TC track analysis and forecasting.

Application of Feature Point Matching Technology to Identify Images of Free-Swimming Tuna Schools in a Purse Seine Fishery - Qinglian Hou; Cheng Zhou; Rong Wan; Junbo Zhang; Feng Xue (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
Tuna fish school detection provides information on the fishing decisions of purse seine fleets. Here, we present a recognition system that included fish shoal image acquisition, point extraction, point matching, and data storage. Points are a crucial characteristic for images of free-swimming tuna schools, and point algorithm analysis and point matching were studied for their applications in fish shoal recognition. The feature points were obtained by using one of the best point algorithms (scale invariant feature transform, speeded up robust features, oriented fast and rotated brief). The k-nearest neighbors (KNN) algorithm uses ‘feature similarity’ to predict the values of new points, which means that new data points will be assigned a value based on how closely they match the points that exist in the database. Finally, we tested the model, and the experimental results show that the proposed method can accurately and effectively recognize tuna free-swimming schools.

A Novel Hybrid Fuel Consumption Prediction Model for Ocean-Going Container Ships Based on Sensor Data - Zhihui Hu; Tianrui Zhou; Mohd Tarmizi Osman; Xiaohe Li; Yongxin Jin; Rong Zhen (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
Accurate, reliable, and real-time prediction of ship fuel consumption is the basis and premise of the development of fuel optimization; however, ship fuel consumption data mainly come from noon reports, and many current modeling methods have been based on a single model; therefore they have low accuracy and robustness. In this study, we propose a novel hybrid fuel consumption prediction model based on sensor data collected from an ocean-going container ship. First, a data processing method is proposed to clean the collected data. Secondly, the Bayesian optimization method of hyperparameters is used to reasonably set the hyperparameter values of the model. Finally, a hybrid fuel consumption prediction model is established by integrating extremely randomized tree (ET), random forest (RF), Xgboost (XGB) and multiple linear regression (MLR) methods. The experimental results show that data cleaning, the size of the dataset, marine environmental factors, and hyperparameter optimization can all affect the accuracy of the model, and the proposed hybrid model provides better predictive performance (higher accuracy) and greater robustness (smaller standard deviation) as compared with a single model. The proposed hybrid model should play a significant role in ship fuel consumption real-time monitoring, fault diagnosis, energy saving and emission reduction, etc.

Simultaneous detection of multiple bacterial and viral aquatic pathogens using a fluorogenic loop‐mediated isothermal amplification‐based dual‐sample microfluidic chip - Qian‐Jin Zhou; Jian‐Fei Lu; Xiu‐Rong Su; Jing‐Lei Jin; Shang‐Yang Li; Yan Zhou; Lei Wang; Xin‐Bin Shao; Yao‐Hua Wang; Mao‐Cang Yan; Ming‐Yun Li; Jiong Chen (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2021)
Rapid and user‐friendly diagnostic tests are necessary for early diagnosis and immediate detection of diseases, particularly for on‐site screening of pathogenic microorganisms in aquaculture. In this study, we developed a dual‐sample microfluidic chip integrated with a real‐time fluorogenic loop‐mediated isothermal amplification assay (dual‐sample on‐chip LAMP) to simultaneously detect 10 pathogenic microorganisms, that is Aeromonas hydrophila , Edwardsiella tarda , Vibrio harveyi , V. alginolyticus , V. anguillarum , V. parahaemolyticus , V. vulnificus , infectious hypodermal and haematopoietic necrosis virus, infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus, and white spot syndrome virus. This on‐chip LAMP provided a nearly automated protocol that can analyse two samples simultaneously, and the tests achieved limits of detection (LOD) ranging from 10 0 to 10 –1 pg/μl for genomic DNA of tested bacteria and 10 –4 to 10 –5 pg/μl for recombinant plasmid DNA of tested viruses, with run times averaging less than 30 min. The coefficient of variation for the time‐to‐positive value was less than 10%, reflecting a robust reproducibility. The clinical sensitivity and specificity were 93.52% and 85.53%, respectively, compared to conventional microbiological or clinical methods. The on‐chip LAMP assay provides an effective dual‐sample and multiple pathogen analysis, and thus would be applicable to on‐site detection and routine monitoring of multiple pathogens in aquaculture.

Correlation of exosomal microRNA clusters with bone metastasis in non-small cell lung cancer - Xiao-Rong Yang; Can Pi; Ruoying Yu; Xiao-Jun Fan; Xiao-Xiao Peng; Xu-Chao Zhang; Zhi-Hong Chen; Xue Wu; Yang Shao; Yi-Long Wu; Qing Zhou (Clinical & Experimental Metastasis, 2021)
20–40% of lung cancer patients develop bone metastasis (BM) with significantly decreased overall survival. Currently, BM is mainly diagnosed by computerized tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) when symptom develops. Novel biomarkers with higher prediction value of BM are needed. Plasma-derived exosomal microRNAs had been isolated and sequenced of total 30 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients including 16 with bone metastasis and 14 without bone metastasis. Hierarchical clustering based on the total miRNA profile can clearly separate cancer patients and healthy individuals (H), but not patients with (BM +) or without (BM−) BM. Weight Co-expression network of miRNAs (WGCNA) analyses identified three consensus clusters (A, B, C) of highly correlated miRNAs, among which cluster B (144 miRNAs) showed significantly differential expression in lung cancer patients, especially in BM + group. Pathway analysis of cluster B miRNAs revealed enrichment in metabolic pathways that may involve in preconditioning of the metastatic niche. Three differentially expressed miRNAs between BM + and BM− patients within cluster B were identified as miR-574-5p, a suppressor of Wnt/β-catenin pathway, was down-regulated, while miR-328-3p and miR-423-3p, two activators of the same pathway, were up-regulated in BM + patients. Cluster A miRNAs (n = 49) also showed trend of upregulation in BM + patients. Interestingly, pathway analysis indicated that 43 of them are associated with chromosome14, which has been suggested to promote epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and bone metastasis.

Controlled-release N fertilizer to mitigate ammonia volatilization from double-cropping rice - Chang Tian; Xuan Zhou; Zheli Ding; Qiang Liu; Guixian Xie; Jianwei Peng; Xiangming Rong; Yuping Zhang; Yong Yang; Mamdouh A. Eissa (Nutrient Cycling in Agroecosystems, 2021)
Controlled-release nitrogen fertilizer (CRNF) can effectively enhance crop yields and raise the efficiency of nitrogen fertilizer in agroecosystems. In the present study, the volatilization of NH 3 was determined by airflow enclosure chamber technique after the application of different CRNF rates in double-cropping rice fields in southern China for continuous 3 years. The early and late season rice (ESR and LSR) were cultivated each year. The results showed that the total NH 3 volatilization losses ranged from 25 to 56 kg N ha −1 in ESR and from 32 to 61 kg N ha −1 in LSR. The loss of N to the total applied N ranged from 12 to 29% in ESR and from 12 to 27% in LSR. The application of CRNF significantly reduced the cumulative NH 3 volatilization losses by 20–43% for ESR and by 20–32% for LSR compared with conventional urea application. CRNF in LSR was less effective to reduce NH 3 volatilization than that in ESR. Furthermore, the application of 80% of N rate in the form of CRNF gave higher grain yield and apparent nitrogen recovery efficiency (ANRE) than that of application of 100% of N rate from conventional urea. CRNF can effectively reduce NH 3 volatilization, and increase rice yield and ANRE. Considering higher price of CRNF, the application of CRNF at lower (20% applied N) rate than conventional urea in LSR may be a reasonable fertilization strategy for improving N use efficiency, environment effectiveness, and sustaining the development of rice production systems in double-cropping rice.

Spatial variability of bigeye tuna habitat in the Pacific Ocean: Hindcast from a refined ecological niche model - Cheng Zhou; Rong Wan; Jie Cao; Liuxiong Xu; Xuefang Wang; Jiangfeng Zhu (Fisheries Oceanography, 2021)
Habitat distribution is critically informative for stock assessment, since incorporating its variabilities can have important implications for the estimation of stock biomass or the relative abundance index. A refined ecological niche model with habitat characteristic parameterization was developed to reconstitute a 3‐D ecological map of bigeye tuna in the Pacific Ocean. We determined the boundaries and hierarchies of oceanographic features and hydrological conditions at horizontal and vertical scales to define the habitat preference of bigeye tuna associated with their feeding and physiological requirements. Ecogeographic projections underlined the depth‐ and region‐specific habitat distribution of bigeye tuna, with noticeable dynamic variations in the response to climate variability. Depths from 300 to 400 m represented layers of the most productive habitat, which was widespread through the equatorial Pacific Ocean and extended to the north‐central Pacific Ocean. The proportion of high‐quality habitat size in the north Pacific had a strictly regular intra‐annual cycle with peaks during the winter. Climate variability appeared to disturb the balance of the regular fluctuations in habitat size in the equatorial Pacific. Habitat hotspots during an El Niño period were characterized by their expansion to the north of the Hawaiian islands, shrinkage in the west for the hotspot band north of the Equator, and an eastern shift for the band south of the Equator. This variability may be the consequence of the incorporated fluctuations of the oxygen minimum zones (OMZ), current systems, and stratification in the open ocean.

Role of May surface temperature over eastern China in East Asian summer monsoon circulation and precipitation - Juan Zhou; Zhiyan Zuo; Xinyao Rong; Jun Wen (International Journal of Climatology, 2020)
Spring soil moisture over the vast region from the lower and middle reaches of the Yangtze River valley to North China (YRNC) can significantly influence East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) via May surface temperature. This study further validates the role of May surface temperature in linking spring soil moisture with summer monsoon circulation and rainfall over eastern China. The role of May surface temperature over YRNC in the ensuing EASM and precipitation over eastern China are investigated by observational analyses and numerical simulations. Given the long “memory” of soil temperature (ST) and its highly consistent with surface temperature, experiments are performed by altering ST as a substitution. The results show that YRNC spring surface temperature anomalies have a significant influence on EASM and precipitation over eastern China. The negative May ST anomalies correspond to an abnormal cooling in the surface and tropospheric atmosphere around the YRNC, which narrows the land‐ocean thermal contrast, resulting in a weakened EASM. An anomalous anticyclone extends from southeastern China to the Philippine Islands, and an anomalous cyclone occupies northeastern China. Consequently, rainfall anomalously decreases over southeastern China and increases over northeastern China. The convergence of warm and humid southerly airflows and cold northerly winds conduces to an enhanced rainfall around the Yangtze River valley. The opposite occurs for the positive ST anomalies. Further simulations show that abnormal wet (dry) spring soil can lead to negative (positive) ST and surface temperature anomalies in May over the YRNC. Hence, the surface air temperature in May is the bridge for the effect of the YRNC spring soil moisture on the EASM and precipitation over eastern China.

Inter‐decadal variation of autumn rain of west China and its relationship with atmospheric circulation and sea surface temperature anomalies - Rong Zhi; Junhu Zhao; Jie Zhou; Lijuan Chen (International Journal of Climatology, 2020)
The inter‐decadal variation of autumn rain of west China (ARWC) and its relationship with atmospheric circulation and sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTAs) was analysed. The intensity of ARWC shows significant inter‐decadal variability. The year 1990 is one of the abrupt change points of ARWC in both the southern and northern zone, and the year 2000 is another one in the northern zone. The inter‐annual correlation between the intensity of ARWC in the northern (southern) zone and the El Niño–Southern Oscillation continuously weakens (strengthens) from 1961. The relationship between the intensity of ARWC in the northern zone and atmospheric circulation of September–October mean significantly weakens after 2000, so does the relationship with the SSTAs in the equatorial central Pacific. On the contrary, the relationship between the intensity of ARWC in the southern zone and atmospheric circulation of September–October mean significantly strengthens after 1990, so does the relationship with the east–west contrast pattern of SSTAs in the equatorial central–western Pacific. The positive phase of the east–west contrast pattern of SSTAs in the equatorial central–western Pacific (i.e., when the tropical central [western] Pacific is colder [warmer] than normal) gradually strengthening and maintaining from the preceding spring to September–October is favourable for a stronger western Pacific subtropical high, which further facilitates northwards transportation of water vapour and provides better dynamic conditions for ARWC in the southern zone by strengthening the local Hadley circulation.

The impact of particulate matter 2.5 on the risk of preeclampsia: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis - Hongbiao Yu; Yangxue Yin; Jiashuo Zhang; Rong Zhou (Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2020)
There is increasing and inconsistent evidence of a linkage between maternal exposure to particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5) and preeclampsia. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate this relationship. Electronic databases including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library were searched to identify articles published from inception to March 23, 2020, which showed a correlation between PM2.5 and preeclampsia. Finally, 9 of 523 initial studies were deemed eligible for inclusion. A random effect model was adopted to calculate the standardized odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Based on potential effect modification, subgroup analyses were further performed. Meta-analysis showed that maternal exposure to PM2.5 (per 10 μg/m 3 increment) elevated the risk of preeclampsia (OR = 1.32, 95% CI 1.10 to 1.58%). Compared with other pregnancy trimesters, the third trimester of pregnancy seems to be the period in which women are more susceptible to PM2.5. Significant effect modification of the correlation between PM2.5 exposure and preeclampsia according to multiple pregnancies, pregnancy stage, maternal-related disease history, and sample size was not observed. The results demonstrated that maternal exposure to PM2.5 may predispose pregnant women to develop preeclampsia, especially in the third trimester of pregnancy. Therefore, more efforts should be made to improve air quality to maintain the health of pregnant women.

We present a synthetic review and expert consultation that assesses the actual risks posed by arthropod pests in four major crops, identifies targets for integrated pest management (IPM) in terms of cultivated land needing pest control and gauges the implementation “readiness” of non-chemical alternatives. Our assessment focuses on the world’s primary target pests for neonicotinoid-based management: western corn rootworm (WCR, Diabrotica virgifera virgifera ) in maize; wireworms ( Agriotes spp.) in maize and winter wheat; bird cherry-oat aphid ( Rhopalosiphum padi ) in winter wheat; brown planthopper (BPH, Nilaparvata lugens ) in rice; cotton aphid ( Aphis gossypii ) and silver-leaf whitefly (SLW, Bemisia tabaci ) in cotton. First, we queried scientific literature databases and consulted experts from different countries in Europe, North America, and Asia about available IPM tools for each crop-pest system. Next, using an online survey, we quantitatively assessed the economic relevance of target pests by compiling country-level records of crop damage, yield impacts, extent of insecticide usage, and “readiness” status of various pest management alternatives (i.e., research, plot-scale validation, grower-uptake). Biological control received considerable scientific attention, while agronomic strategies (e.g., crop rotation), insurance schemes, decision support systems (DSS), and innovative pesticide application modes were listed as key alternatives. Our study identifies opportunities to advance applied research, IPM technology validation, and grower education to halt or drastically reduce our over-reliance on systemic insecticides globally.

Integrated fate assessment of aromatic amines in aerobic sewage treatment plants - Lin Jun Zhou; Zhi Yi Rong; Wen Gu; De Ling Fan; Ji Ning Liu; Li Li Shi; Yan Hua Xu; Zhi Ying Liu (Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2020)
The fate and exposure of chemicals in sewage treatment plants (STPs) are major considerations in risk assessment and environmental regulation. The biodegradability and removal of seven aromatic amines were systematically evaluated using a three-tiered integrated method: a standard ready biodegradability test, an aerobic sewage treatment simulation method, and model prediction. In tier 1, the seven aromatic amines were not readily biodegraded after 28 days. In adapted aerobic active sludge, 4-isopropyl aniline, 2,4-diaminotoluene, and 4-nitroaniline among them exhibited the degradation half-life time less than 20 h, the other four aromatic amines exhibited persistent with degradation half-life of > 60 h. In tier 2 of the aerobic sewage treatment simulation testing, 2,4-diaminotoluene, 4-nitroaniline, and 4-isopropylaniline demonstrated moderately to high overall removal. Hydraulic retention time (HRT) affects the removal with the optimum HRT was determined to be 12 h to 24. 2,6-Dimethyl aniline, 2-chloro-4-nitroaniline, 2,6-diethylaniline, and 3,4-dichloroaniline were not removed during the test, indicting these four aromatic amines will enter surface water and hence pose a potential risk to aquatic ecology. Considering the lack of an STP model in China for regulation purposes, in tier 3, we developed a Chinese STP (aerobic) (abbreviated as C-STP(O)) model that reflects a universal scenario for China to predict the fate. The predicted degradation, volatilization, and absorption showed a close relationship to the physicochemical properties of the chemicals, and had same tendency with tier 2 simulation test. The prediction showed that biodegradation rather than absorption or volatilization was the main removal process of aromatic amines in aerobic STP. With the combination of modified kinetics test with C-STP (O) model, the chemical fate can be more accurately predicted than using only the readily biodegradation result.

The effects of mesoscale oceanographic structures and ambient conditions on the catch of albacore tuna in the South Pacific longline fishery - Cheng Zhou; Pingguo He; Liuxiong Xu; Pascal Bach; Xuefang Wang; Rong Wan; Hao Tang; Yu Zhang (Fisheries Oceanography, 2020)
Albacore tuna ( Thunnus alalunga ) exhibit patchy concentrations associated with biological process at a wide range of spatial scales, resulting in variations in their catchability by fishing gears. Here, we investigated the association of catch variation for pelagic longlines in the South Pacific Ocean with oceanographic mesoscale structures (in horizontal dimension) and ambient conditions (in vertical dimension). The distribution of albacore tuna as indicated by catch per unit effort (CPUE) of longlines was significantly related to the presence of mesoscale structures, with higher CPUE found at locations closer to thermal fronts and with greater gradient magnitudes, as well as areas marked by peripheral contour line of the anticyclone indicated by Sea Surface Height Anomalies ~0.05 m. Surface mesoscale current velocity had the negative effect on the catch, probably as a result of decreased catchability by shoaling the hook depth. Vertical distribution of albacore in the survey region of South Pacific Ocean was hardly restricted by ambient temperature and oxygen concentration, though effect of ambient temperature was relevant and showed a negatively linear correlation with CPUE at the range of 20–24°C. On the contrary, albacore distribution was evidently dominated by the water depth and showed strong preference on water depth of 200 m, which was likely a representative feeding layer. The presence of prey resources and their accessibility by albacore revealed by mesoscale structures in the biological and physical processes, and catchability determined by the location of the baited hooks comprehensively contribute to the variability of catch.

Chinese chestnut ( Castanea mollissima ) is an important germplasm resource for the breeding of Castanea species worldwide with vital ecological and economic value. Biotechnology overcomes the limitations of traditional breeding and accelerates germplasm improvement. However, a genetic transformation system for Chinese chestnut has not yet been established. In this study, a stable and efficient Agrobacterium -mediated genetic transformation method for Chinese chestnut is described. Embryogenic calli of C. mollissima cv. ‘Yanshanhongli’ were used as the target material. The sensitivity of embryogenic calli to kanamycin was determined, whereby the proliferation of non-transformed calli was completely inhibited at 180 mg/L. Antibiotic inhibition results for Chinese chestnut embryogenic calli showed that 50 mg/L cefotaxime and 500 μM timentin completely inhibited the growth of Agrobacterium tumefaciens but did not affect the normal growth of Chinese chestnut embryogenic calli. When embryogenic calli were co-cultured for 2 days with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain AGL1 harboring the PBI121-EGFP plasmid, an embryogenic callus transformation efficiency of 4.55% was obtained, and two transgenic chimera were acquired. This Agrobacterium -mediated transformation system for Chinese chestnut provides a fundamental platform for genetic improvement of core germplasm and for further verification of gene function.

Dynamic responses of tuna purse seine to currents were numerically studied with regard to the vertical subsidence and global load distribution, and determinant attributes were identified. We rebuilt the submerged geometry of a purse seine net using the lumped mass method with hydrodynamic coefficients obtained from measurements of the prototype material, as well as a mesh grouping method, which corrects the twine diameter and netting material density for the equivalent net by introducing the compensation coefficient. Uneven tension distribution showed that it was vulnerable to high loads in the bunt area at shooting and along the lead line at pursing. High loads were present at the convex sections of net circles in the direction of the current. Higher shooting speeds resulted in well-balanced sinking, while a reduced hanging ratio of netting panels was beneficial to faster sinking. While large mesh sizes reduce water resistance and increase sinking velocity, extensive use should be cautioned in terms of the sensibility to stress. Comparing two options of different proportions of large-mesh panels, mesh sizes doubled for 15 strips versus 5 strips, suggesting that the 15 strip option would pose a higher risk of strand vulnerability, while the 5 strip option may be a more balanced alternative with a lower mesh density and a lower mesh stress.

Underestimated ecosystem carbon turnover time and sequestration under the steady state assumption: A perspective from long‐term data assimilation - Rong Ge; Honglin He; Xiaoli Ren; Li Zhang; Guirui Yu; T. Luke Smallman; Tao Zhou; Shi‐Yong Yu; Yiqi Luo; Zongqiang Xie; Silong Wang; Huimin Wang; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2019)
It is critical to accurately estimate carbon (C) turnover time as it dominates the uncertainty in ecosystem C sinks and their response to future climate change. In the absence of direct observations of ecosystem C losses, C turnover times are commonly estimated under the steady state assumption ( SSA ), which has been applied across a large range of temporal and spatial scales including many at which the validity of the assumption is likely to be violated. However, the errors associated with improperly applying SSA to estimate C turnover time and its covariance with climate as well as ecosystem C sequestrations have yet to be fully quantified. Here, we developed a novel model‐data fusion framework and systematically analyzed the SSA ‐induced biases using time‐series data collected from 10 permanent forest plots in the eastern China monsoon region. The results showed that (a) the SSA significantly underestimated mean turnover times ( MTT s) by 29%, thereby leading to a 4.83‐fold underestimation of the net ecosystem productivity ( NEP ) in these forest ecosystems, a major C sink globally; (b) the SSA ‐induced bias in MTT and NEP correlates negatively with forest age, which provides a significant caveat for applying the SSA to young‐aged ecosystems; and (c) the sensitivity of MTT to temperature and precipitation was 22% and 42% lower, respectively, under the SSA . Thus, under the expected climate change, spatiotemporal changes in MTT are likely to be underestimated, thereby resulting in large errors in the variability of predicted global NEP . With the development of observation technology and the accumulation of spatiotemporal data, we suggest estimating MTT s at the disequilibrium state via long‐term data assimilation, thereby effectively reducing the uncertainty in ecosystem C sequestration estimations and providing a better understanding of regional or global C cycle dynamics and C‐climate feedback.

Analysis of slight precipitation in China during the past decades and its relationship with advanced very high radiometric resolution normalized difference vegetation index - Xinyue Li; Yves Balkanski; Zhengfang Wu; Thomas Gasser; Philippe Ciais; Feng Zhou; Laurent Li; Shu Tao; Shushi Peng; Shilong Piao; Rong Wang; Tao Wang; et al. (International Journal of Climatology, 2018)
Precipitation is one of the most important factors determining the occurrence of extreme hydro‐meteorological events and water resource availability. Precipitation in different grades has diverse ecological effects, and slight precipitation (SP, defined as 0.1–1.0 mm/day) is the minimal level among them. In this study, we investigated SP trends from 1961 to 2013, as well as the relationship between SP and advanced very high radiometric resolution (AVHRR) normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) in China during growing season from 1981 to 2006. The distributions and trends of SP were analysed by calculating the daily precipitation data. The average annual slight precipitation amount (SPA) and the number of slight precipitation days (SPD), derived from 839 monitoring stations in China, show a decreasing trend over the last five decades, which is in agreement with total precipitation (TP) but in different rates. When the trend was analysed seasonally, SP in most stations decreases significantly in September–October–November (SON) and June–July–August (JJA), and the largest decrease is found in SON. About 49.5 and 68.7% of monitoring stations show a decreasing trend in SON, in both SPA and SPD, whereas the trend is less popular in March–April–May (MAM, SPA: 19.7%, SPD: 41.4%) and December–January–February (JJF, SPA: 25.6%, SPD: 43.1%). Moreover, our analysis indicates that the decrease of SP is mainly due to the decrease of SPD as the median amount of daily SP was unchanged over the past five decades (close to 0.3 mm/day). Based on 26‐year (1981–2006) semi‐monthly AVHRR NDVI data and the records of SP data, the relationship between AVHRR NDVI and SP was also investigated. In regions with lower (

Late spring soil moisture variation over the Tibetan Plateau and its influences on the plateau summer monsoon - Juan Zhou; Jun Wen; Rong Liu; Xin Wang; Yan Xie (International Journal of Climatology, 2018)
Based on the European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) ERA‐Interim reanalysis data from 1979 to 2016, an index for Tibetan Plateau (TP) soil moisture ( I TPSM ), which could represent inter‐annual variation in spring soil moisture, is defined after removing the linear trend in soil moisture. The late spring soil moisture variation over the TP and its influences on the plateau summer monsoon are analysed. The results show that the TP soil moisture variation is non‐uniform, and spring soil moisture over the northeastern TP shows an increasing trend, while the western TP (especially the peripheral area) renders a significantly decreasing trend. When the I TPSM shows positive (negative) anomalies (i.e., spring soil moisture over the northeastern TP is higher (lower), soil moisture over the western TP is lower (higher) than normal), the plateau summer monsoon may be stronger (weaker). Anomalous variations in spring TP soil moisture can eventually affect the plateau summer monsoon by changing atmospheric circulation, diabatic heating, and water vapour transportation. It is found that when the I TPSM exhibits positive anomalies, diabatic heating over the centre and eastern TP is remarkably enhanced, and warm and humid moisture from the Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea and cold air from high latitudes merge over the central and eastern TP; coupled with lower‐level convergence and upper‐level divergence, all these contribute to an increase in plateau summer monsoonal precipitation. When the I TPSM shows negative anomalies, diabatic heating over the centre and eastern TP is weakened, the anomalous cyclone to the south of the TP hinders warm and humid air flows transportation to the TP, and the anomalous anticyclone to the southeast of Lake Baikal weakens cold air to the south; coupled with weakened convergence and upwards motion, these factors all lead to a decrease in plateau summer monsoonal precipitation.

Srk1 kinase, a SR protein‐specific kinase, is important for sexual reproduction, plant infection and pre‐mRNA processing in Fusarium graminearum - Guanghui Wang; Peng Sun; Ziwen Gong; Lianfeng Gu; Yi Lou; Wenqin Fang; Lianhu Zhang; Li Su; Tao Yang; Baohua Wang; Jie Zhou; Jin‐Rong Xu; et al. (Environmental Microbiology, 2018)
Summary SR protein‐specific kinases (SRPKs) uniquely with a spacer region are important splicing factors from yeast to human. However, little is known about their biological functions in filamentous fungi. Therefore, we characterized a SRPK called SRK1 in wheat scab fungus Fusarium graminearum . Our data showed that Srk1 is required for vegetative growth, sexual reproduction and plant infection, and plays critical roles in pre‐mRNA alternative splicing and gene expression. Remarkably, we found that Srk1 displayed dynamic shuttling between cytoplasm and the nucleus, which is regulated by the divergent spacer domain rather than its kinase activity, suggesting a regulatory mechanism for Srk1. Interestingly, Srk1‐GFP also localized to the septal pores, indicating a possible role of Srk1 unrelated to mRNA processing. Although both K1 and K2 lobes of the kinase domain are essential for Srk1 functions, the K2 but not K1 lobe is responsible for the septal pore localization. Lastly, we established that Srk1 physically interacts with the two SR proteins, FgNpl3 and FgSrp1. Overall, our results indicated that SRK1 regulates fungal development, plant infection and mRNA processing by phosphorylation of other splicing factors including SR proteins, and the spacer domain regulates the functions of Srk1 by modulating its nucleocytoplasmic shuttling.

Global forest carbon uptake due to nitrogen and phosphorus deposition from 1850 to 2100 - Rong Wang; Daniel Goll; Yves Balkanski; Didier Hauglustaine; Olivier Boucher; Philippe Ciais; Ivan Janssens; Josep Penuelas; Bertrand Guenet; Jordi Sardans; Laurent Bopp; Nicolas Vuichard; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2017)
Spatial patterns and temporal trends of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) deposition are important for quantifying their impact on forest carbon (C) uptake. In a first step, we modeled historical and future change in the global distributions of the atmospheric deposition of N and P from the dry and wet deposition of aerosols and gases containing N and P. Future projections were compared between two scenarios with contrasting aerosol emissions. Modeled fields of N and P deposition and P concentration were evaluated using globally distributed in situ measurements. N deposition peaked around 1990 in European forests and around 2010 in East Asian forests, and both increased sevenfold relative to 1850. P deposition peaked around 2010 in South Asian forests and increased 3.5‐fold relative to 1850. In a second step, we estimated the change in C storage in forests due to the fertilization by deposited N and P (∆C ν dep ), based on the retention of deposited nutrients, their allocation within plants, and C:N and C:P stoichiometry. ∆C ν dep for 1997–2013 was estimated to be 0.27 ± 0.13 Pg C year −1 from N and 0.054 ± 0.10 Pg C year −1 from P, contributing 9% and 2% of the terrestrial C sink, respectively. Sensitivity tests show that uncertainty of ∆C ν dep was larger from P than from N, mainly due to uncertainty in the fraction of deposited P that is fixed by soil. ∆ C P dep was exceeded by ∆ C N dep over 1960–2007 in a large area of East Asian and West European forests due to a faster growth in N deposition than P. Our results suggest a significant contribution of anthropogenic P deposition to C storage, and additional sources of N are needed to support C storage by P in some Asian tropical forests where the deposition rate increased even faster for P than for N.

Changes in intermediate water conditions in the northern South China Sea using Globorotalia inflata over the last 20 ka - Yiping Yang; Rong Xiang; Jianguo Liu; Shaoying Fu; Liping Zhou; Shuhuan Du; Honghong Lü (Journal of Quaternary Science, 2017)
Intermediate circulation is one of the crucial controls of thermohaline changes in seawater. Due to the lack of data for some of the more significant indicators, there has been little research into past intermediate waters in the South China Sea (SCS). In particular, little is known of the thermohaline properties of intermediate water. Here, we present paired Mg/Ca and δ 18 O data for the planktonic foraminifera Globorotalia inflata from core GHE27L in the northern SCS; these data provide records of temperature and residual δ 18 O seawater (δ 18 O residual , being used as a proxy for salinity) to tentatively investigate changes in the intermediate water of the SCS over the last 20 ka. Our results show that G. inflata in the SCS grew principally within the 200–450 m water depth interval. Thermohaline changes recorded by G. inflata indicate warm and relatively freshening water during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM, 20–17.7 ka BP ), changing to warm and saline waters between 17.7 and 13.6 ka BP . In general, waters during the 13.6–8.3 ka BP period were characterized by high temperatures and salinity, with obvious millennial‐scale fluctuations, after which, during the Holocene, they became cold and fresh. We suggest that the temperature and salinity of the intermediate water of the SCS recorded by G. inflata in core GHE27L were possibly associated with a switch in intermediate water masses. During the LGM, the intermediate water in the northern SCS was mainly impacted by North Pacific Intermediate Water (NPIW), but that subsequently the influence of Antarctic Intermediate Water strengthened during the last deglaciation and Pre‐Boreal period (17.7–8.3 ka BP ). After this period, NPIW was the principal control of the intermediate water of the SCS again.
