Robustness of Parametric and Nonparametric Fitting Procedures of Tree-Stem Taper with Alternative Definitions for Validation Data - Sheng-I Yang; Harold E Burkhart (Journal of Forestry, 2020)
This study aims to evaluate the robustness of parametric and nonparametric procedures using alternative definitions of validation data for loblolly pine. Specifically, four data division strategies were implemented: random selection of one-third of the trees in the data set, selection of the smallest one-third of the trees by diameter at breast height (DBH), selection of the middle third of the trees by DBH, and selection of the largest third of the trees by DBH. Results indicate that tree taper was predicted reasonably well by both procedures when the smallest, medium-sized, or randomly selected trees were withheld for validation. However, when the largest trees were withheld for validation, diameters predicted by the nonparametric random forest algorithm were considerably less accurate than those predicted by the parametric models, especially for diameters near the tree top. When extrapolation is anticipated, a carefully designed data-partitioning strategy should provide some protection against poor results for given prediction objectives. Study Implications Parametric tree-stem taper models have been widely applied in forestry. Recently, nonparametric methods with computationally intensive algorithms were proposed for estimating tree taper, but reliability of the methods has not been explicitly examined. In practice, models are commonly applied to predict unknown populations, which may vary from the observations used in model development. This study provides insights for natural resource and forest managers to select appropriate validation procedures when developing models for predicting tree-stem taper and examining robustness of parametric and nonparametric fitting of tree-stem taper under varying levels of interpolation/extrapolation from fitting to validation of data.

Phosphorus alleviation of nitrogen‐suppressed methane sink in global grasslands - Lihua Zhang; Fenghui Yuan; Junhong Bai; Hongtao Duan; Xueying Gu; Longyu Hou; Yao Huang; Mingan Yang; Jin‐Sheng He; Zhenhua Zhang; Lijun Yu; Changchun Song; et al. (Ecology Letters, 2020)
Grassland ecosystems account for more than 10% of the global CH 4 sink in soils. A 4‐year field experiment found that addition of P alone did not affect CH 4 uptake and experimental addition of N alone significantly suppressed CH 4 uptake, whereas concurrent N and P additions suppressed CH 4 uptake to a lesser degree. A meta‐analysis including 382 data points in global grasslands corroborated these findings. Global extrapolation with an empirical modelling approach estimated that contemporary N addition suppresses CH 4 sink in global grassland by 11.4% and concurrent N and P deposition alleviates this suppression to 5.8%. The P alleviation of N‐suppressed CH 4 sink is primarily attributed to substrate competition, defined as the competition between ammonium and CH 4 for the methane mono‐oxygenase enzyme. The N and P impacts on CH 4 uptake indicate that projected increases in N and P depositions might substantially affect CH 4 uptake and alter the global CH 4 cycle.

This paper investigates the mechanical properties and permeability of chemically corroded rock during deep underground tunneling. Nuclear magnetic resonance tests are carried out to quantify the chemical damage of limestone samples at the microscopic scale. Coupled hydrostatic pressure-unloading tests at different unloading rates are also conducted on these chemically corroded limestone samples to investigate permeability changes and chemical effects on mechanical behaviours. Magnetic resonance imaging, T 2 spectrum distribution and porosity of the samples are obtained, and the chemical micro damage is visualized and quantified. The relationship between permeability and mechanical behaviors of the rock under hydrochemical–mechanical coupled effects is investigated. The results show that the permeability development process of the chemical corroded samples can be divided into three stages: at the first stage, the permeability initially decreases, and the second stage starts at the inflection point of the permeability curve, from where the permeability begins to increase slightly. At the third stage, the permeability of the limestone increases dramatically until the sample is ruptured. Chemical corrosion and unloading rates have a combined and significant influence on the development of micro cracks in rocks, which is the root cause of the permeability changes. A stress-permeability model is proposed to describe the permeability and stresses in chemical-corroded limestone; this can be adopted for other sedimentary rocks.

Temporal population variability in local forest communities has mixed effects on tree species richness across a latitudinal gradient - Tak Fung; Ryan A. Chisholm; Kristina Anderson‐Teixeira; Norm Bourg; Warren Y. Brockelman; Sarayudh Bunyavejchewin; Chia‐Hao Chang‐Yang; Rutuja Chitra‐Tarak; George Chuyong; Richard Condit; Handanakere S. Dattaraja; Stuart J. Davies; et al. (Ecology Letters, 2020)
Among the local processes that determine species diversity in ecological communities, fluctuation‐dependent mechanisms that are mediated by temporal variability in the abundances of species populations have received significant attention. Higher temporal variability in the abundances of species populations can increase the strength of temporal niche partitioning but can also increase the risk of species extinctions, such that the net effect on species coexistence is not clear. We quantified this temporal population variability for tree species in 21 large forest plots and found much greater variability for higher latitude plots with fewer tree species. A fitted mechanistic model showed that among the forest plots, the net effect of temporal population variability on tree species coexistence was usually negative, but sometimes positive or negligible. Therefore, our results suggest that temporal variability in the abundances of species populations has no clear negative or positive contribution to the latitudinal gradient in tree species richness.

Climate warming alters subsoil but not topsoil carbon dynamics in alpine grassland - Juan Jia; Zhenjiao Cao; Chengzhu Liu; Zhenhua Zhang; Li Lin; Yiyun Wang; Negar Haghipour; Lukas Wacker; Hongyan Bao; Thorston Dittmar; Myrna J. Simpson; Huan Yang; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2019)
Subsoil contains more than half of soil organic carbon (SOC) globally and is conventionally assumed to be relatively unresponsive to warming compared to the topsoil. Here, we show substantial changes in carbon allocation and dynamics of the subsoil but not topsoil in the Qinghai‐Tibetan alpine grasslands over 5 years of warming. Specifically, warming enhanced the accumulation of newly synthesized ( 14 C‐enriched) carbon in the subsoil slow‐cycling pool (silt‐clay fraction) but promoted the decomposition of plant‐derived lignin in the fast‐cycling pool (macroaggregates). These changes mirrored an accumulation of lipids and sugars at the expense of lignin in the warmed bulk subsoil, likely associated with shortened soil freezing period and a deepening root system. As warming is accompanied by deepening roots in a wide range of ecosystems, root‐driven accrual of slow‐cycling pool may represent an important and overlooked mechanism for a potential long‐term carbon sink at depth. Moreover, given the contrasting sensitivity of SOC dynamics at varied depths, warming studies focusing only on surface soils may vastly misrepresent shifts in ecosystem carbon storage under climate change.

An objective and efficient method for estimating probabilistic coastal inundation hazards - Kun Yang; Vladimir Paramygin; Y. Peter Sheng (Natural Hazards, 2019)
The joint probability method (JPM) is the traditional way to determine the base flood elevation due to storm surge, and it usually requires simulation of storm surge response from tens of thousands of synthetic storms. The simulated storm surge is combined with probabilistic storm rates to create flood maps with various return periods. However, the map production requires enormous computational cost if state-of-the-art hydrodynamic models with high-resolution numerical grids are used; hence, optimal sampling (JPM-OS) with a small number of (~ 100–200) optimal (representative) storms is preferred. This paper presents a significantly improved JPM-OS, where a small number of optimal storms are objectively selected, and simulated storm surge responses of tens of thousands of storms are accurately interpolated from those for the optimal storms using a highly efficient kriging surrogate model. This study focuses on Southwest Florida and considers ~ 150 optimal storms that are selected based on simulations using either the low fidelity (with low resolution and simple physics) SLOSH model or the high fidelity (with high resolution and comprehensive physics) CH3D model. Surge responses to the optimal storms are simulated using both SLOSH and CH3D, and the flood elevations are calculated using JPM-OS with highly efficient kriging interpolations. For verification, the probabilistic inundation maps are compared to those obtained by the traditional JPM and variations of JPM-OS that employ different interpolation schemes, and computed probabilistic water levels are compared to those calculated by historical storm methods. The inundation maps obtained with the JPM-OS differ less than 10% from those obtained with JPM for 20,625 storms, with only 4% of the computational time.

Summary Vibrio parahaemolyticus , the leading cause of seafood‐associated gastroenteritis worldwide, requires the two type‐III secretion systems (T3SS1 and T3SS2) and a thermostable direct hemolysin (encoded by tdh1 and tdh2 ) for full virulence. The tdh genes and the T3SS2 gene cluster constitute an 80 kb pathogenicity island known as Vp‐PAI located on the chromosome II. Expression of T3SS1 and Vp‐PAI is regulated in a quorum sensing (QS)‐dependent manner but its detailed mechanisms remain unknown. Herein, we show that three factors (QS regulators AphA and OpaR and an AraC‐type transcriptional regulator QsvR) form a complex regulatory network to control the expression of T3SS1 and Vp‐PAI genes. At low cell density (LCD), whereas Vp‐PAI expression is repressed, T3SS1 genes are induced by AphA, which directly binds (an operator region of) the exsBAD‐vscBCD operon. At high cell density (HCD), the bacterium turns off T3SS1 expression by replacing AphA with OpaR, triggering the induction of Vp‐PAI. Furthermore, QsvR binds to the regulatory regions of all the tested T3SS1 and Vp‐PAI genes to activate their transcription at HCD. Taken together, our data highlight how multiple QS regulators contribute to the pathogenicity of V. parahaemolyticus by precisely controlling the expression of major virulence determinants during different stages of growth.

The niches of nuthatches affect their lineage evolution differently across latitude - Yu‐Chi Chen; Masoud Nazarizadeh; Fu‐Min Lei; Xiao‐Jun Yang; Cheng‐Te Yao; Feng Dong; Lu Dong; Fa‐Sheng Zou; Sergei V. Drovetski; Yang Liu; Chun‐Cheng Huang; Chih‐Ming Hung (Molecular Ecology, 2019)
Ecological niche evolution can promote or hinder the differentiation of taxa and determine their distribution. Niche‐mediated evolution may differ among climatic regimes, and thus, species that occur across a wide latitudinal range offer a chance to test these heterogeneous evolutionary processes. In this study, we examine (a) how many lineages have evolved across the continent‐wide range of the Eurasian nuthatch ( Sitta europaea ), (b) whether the lineages’ niches are significantly divergent or conserved and (c) how their niche evolution explains their geographic distribution. Phylogenetic reconstruction and ecological niche models (ENMs) showed that the Eurasian nuthatch contained six parapatric lineages that diverged within 2 Myr and did not share identical climatic niches. However, the niche discrepancy between these distinct lineages was relatively conserved compared with the environmental differences between their ranges and thus was unlikely to drive lineage divergence. The ENMs of southern lineages tended to cross‐predict with their neighbouring lineages whereas those of northern lineages generally matched with their abutting ranges. The coalescence‐based analyses revealed more stable populations for the southern lineages than the northern ones during the last glaciation cycle. In contrast to the overlapping ENMs, the smaller parapatric distribution suggests that the southern lineages might have experienced competitive exclusion to prevent them from becoming sympatric. On the other hand, the northern lineages have expanded their ranges and their current abutting distribution might have resulted from lineages adapting to different climatic conditions in allopatry. This study suggests that niche evolution may affect lineage distribution in different ways across latitude.

Genomic and transcriptomic insights into the survival of the subaerial cyanobacterium Nostoc flagelliforme in arid and exposed habitats - Jin‐Long Shang; Min Chen; Shengwei Hou; Tao Li; Yi‐Wen Yang; Qi Li; Hai‐Bo Jiang; Guo‐Zheng Dai; Zhong‐Chun Zhang; Wolfgang R. Hess; Bao‐Sheng Qiu (Environmental Microbiology, 2019)
Summary The cyanobacterium Nostoc flagelliforme is an extremophile that thrives under extraordinary desiccation and ultraviolet (UV) radiation conditions. To investigate its survival strategies, we performed whole‐genome sequencing of N. flagelliforme CCNUN1 and transcriptional profiling of its field populations upon rehydration in BG11 medium. The genome of N. flagelliforme is 10.23 Mb in size and contains 10 825 predicted protein‐encoding genes, making it one of the largest complete genomes of cyanobacteria reported to date. Comparative genomics analysis among 20 cyanobacterial strains revealed that genes related to DNA replication, recombination and repair had disproportionately high contributions to the genome expansion. The ability of N. flagelliforme to thrive under extreme abiotic stresses is supported by the acquisition of genes involved in the protection of photosynthetic apparatus, the formation of monounsaturated fatty acids, responses to UV radiation, and a peculiar role of ornithine metabolism. Transcriptome analysis revealed a distinct acclimation strategy to rehydration, including the strong constitutive expression of genes encoding photosystem I assembly factors and the involvement of post‐transcriptional control mechanisms of photosynthetic resuscitation. Our results provide insights into the adaptive mechanisms of subaerial cyanobacteria in their harsh habitats and have important implications to understand the evolutionary transition of cyanobacteria from aquatic environments to terrestrial ecosystems.
