Purpose Head and neck cancer (HNC) is a heterogenous disease with substantial mortality. This study assesses the long-term epidemiologic landscape, demographic disparities, and survival outcomes of HNC. Methods Adult patients with primary HNC were identified in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database by International Classification of Diseases for Oncology (ICD-O) codes. The primary outcomes of this study were overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS). Secondary outcomes included primary tumor site distributions and rates of surgery by race and ethnicity. Multivariable Cox regression modeling was utilized to determine predictors of all-cause and HNC-specific mortality. Results In this cohort of 117,893 head and neck cancer patients, significant racial and ethnic disparities were observed in tumor site, treatment, and outcomes. Black patients were less likely to receive surgery even when accounting for tumor subsite and stage (OR 0.672, 95% CI 0.641–0.705). Five-year overall survival (OS) and cause-specific survival (CSS) were lower in all minority groups ( p < 0.001), with Black patients showing the lowest OS (31.3%) and CSS (58.8%). Multivariable analysis confirmed race/ethnicity, low income (HR 1.043, 95% CI 1.018–1.068), and unmarried status (HR 1.327, 95% CI 1.305–1.350) as independent predictors of increased all-cause and HNC-specific mortality. Conclusion In this most comprehensive and up-to-date analysis of HNC, we demonstrate profound racial and ethnic disparities in tumor sites, treatments, and survival. This study provides critical evidence to guide health policy, resource allocation, and clinical practice aimed at closing longstanding equity gaps in head and neck cancer care.

Elemental geochemical constraints on paleoprecipitation in westerlies‐dominated arid Asia: A comparative surface soil study from NE Iran and SW Tajikistan - Jiamei Lei; Qiang Wang; Yining Tang; Jia Jia; Xiangfeng Tang; Yongqiu Wu; Mi Wang; Davlatkhudzha Murodov; Farhad Khormali; Xin Wang (Journal of Quaternary Science, 2026)
Westerlies‐dominated arid Asia spans the dry mid‐latitude Asian interior from NE Iran across the Central Asian interior to NW China and the southern Mongolian Plateau. Although elemental geochemical proxies are widely used in monsoonal Asia, their applicability to loess deposits in this broader arid domain remains insufficiently tested, especially in its western and central sectors. Here, we investigate the geochemical characteristics of modern surface soils (0–2 cm) from the Iranian Loess Plateau and SW Tajikistan to evaluate their relationships with present‐day climatic conditions and their implications for paleoclimatic reconstruction. Specifically, we aim to (i) characterize elemental geochemical parameters and their paleoclimatic significance and (ii) identify robust proxies for paleoprecipitation reconstruction. Our results indicate (i) low chemical weathering intensity in both regions; (ii) a coupled influence of provenance and climate on weathering processes; and (iii) in NE Iran, strong relationships between the mean annual precipitation and the indices C [(Fe + Al + Mn + Cr + Co + Ni)/(Ca + Mg + Na + K + Sr + Ba)] ( r = 0.73, p r = 0.72, p 2 O + Na 2 O)/(Fe 2 O 3 + MnO 2 )] ( r = −0.71, p

Evaluation of Water and Nitrogen Distribution and Redistribution in Subsurface Drip Irrigation Systems - Zhenjie Qiu; Mengying Sun; Shuhui Gong; Zhenwen Tang (Irrigation and Drainage, 2026)
Determination of the distribution and redistribution of water and nitrogen in the soil is critical for the design and management of subsurface drip irrigation (SSDI). Laboratory experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of the emitter discharge rate (2 and 5.5 L h −1 ) and lateral depth (0 to 20 cm) on water and nitrogen distributions and redistributions under SSDI. The wetted soil area clearly decreased with the emitter discharge rate and increased dramatically with lateral depth following fertigation while an opposing trend was observed in the average soil moisture and nitrate content. Ammonium accumulated near the emitter and the nitrate concentration dropped at the emitter and accumulated at the wetting front edge for both surface drip irrigation (SDI) and SSDI. The wetted soil area exhibited a trend of initial increase followed by a decrease during the redistribution process. A gradual decline and increase were respectively found in the maximum ammonium and nitrate concentrations. An SSDI with an emitter discharge rate of 2 L h −1 produced superior spatial uniformity of water and nitrate according to the lower coefficients of variation. The outcomes recommend that low emitter discharge rates in SSDI can enhance water and nitrogen use efficiency and reduce leaching losses.

A Parametric Investigation of the Jet Breakup Patterns of a Rotary Sprinkler - Longyu Li; Xinyu Tang; Ziyi Zhao; Dan Zi; Haijun Yan (Irrigation and Drainage, 2026)
The spraying uniformity of a sprinkler is a key hydraulic performance indicator that is closely linked to the jet breakup pattern. The current research has focused mainly on the spraying performance of sprinklers, neglecting the exploration of the breakup morphology of spray jets from sprinklers. High‐speed photography technology is adopted to investigate the entire process of the water jet breaking into droplets in the air under different operating conditions. The jet breakup patterns and their corresponding breakup processes and droplet size distributions are analysed. Through multiple‐condition experimental observations, the jet breakup patterns, including split, column and liquid‐film jets, are identified according to their ejection morphology. The breakup processes differ significantly among the three patterns. Both split and column jets form droplets via continuous ligament rupture under inertia and surface tension, whereas the liquid‐film jet first breaks into ligaments and small droplets under aerodynamic shear, which then coalesce into larger ones. The droplet volume mean diameter follows a nonlinear power function with both working pressure and nozzle diameter. Increasing pressure leads to more complete breakup and a more concentrated size distribution, whereas a larger nozzle diameter flattens the peak of the droplet size distribution, resulting in greater nonuniformity.

Diagnosing Linearity Along the Carbon Cascade in Terrestrial Biosphere Models and Observations - Huanyuan Zhang‐Zheng; Vivek K. Arora; Peter Anthoni; Thomas A. M. Pugh; Atul K. Jain; Wenping Yuan; Yadvinder Malhi; Julia Nabel; Daniel S. Goll; Julia Pongratz; Benjamin Poulter; Anthony P. Walker; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2026)
Elevated carbon dioxide (eCO 2 ) acts as a fertiliser for photosynthesis, driving an increase in gross primary production (GPP). However, it is unclear how effectively increased GPP propagates along the ‘carbon (C) cascade’ to increase net primary production (NPP) and vegetation C stocks ( C veg ) in different plant compartments. Vegetation models were criticised for being overly sensitive to photosynthesis (source‐driven), neglecting sink‐driven processes which may attenuate (or amplify) changes in NPP and vegetation C stocks. Here, we introduce an analytical framework to diagnose linearity ( L ) as ratios of relative changes in linked fluxes and pools. We then apply this framework to 16 models of the TRENDY v11 ensemble and to observation‐based estimates of CO 2 sensitivities. We found widely varying global patterns in L across models. Six models showed a majority of grid cells with larger relative changes in NPP than in GPP ( L NPP:GPP > 1 for > 60% of gridcells), indicating increased vegetation carbon use efficiency under eCO 2 . Only three models had L NPP:GPP 60% of gridcells. Four models showed a majority of gridcells with larger relative changes in estimated steady‐state C veg than in NPP, while five models showed the opposite—in both cases with a large spread of L Cveg*:NPP across grid cells within models. Observations‐based analysis reveals median L Cveg*:NPP C veg , ( L Croot:Cveg > 1) while five models showed the opposite. Most field evidence shows L Croot:Cveg > 1. Widely differing distributions of L among models and links in the C cascade reveal a strong influence of nonlinear behaviour in individual models. However, due to the spread in L , across the whole models ensemble, L deviations from 1 were roughly balanced, leading to an overall linear behaviour of terrestrial C cycle representations in the multi‐model‐mean.

A Multi-Temporal Satellite-Derived Bathymetry Fusion Method Based on Adaptive Segmented Rank-Statistic Fusion - Zhipeng Dong; Leyu Wen; Hui Gong; Yanxiong Liu; Yikai Feng; Yilan Chen; Qiuhua Tang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2026)
Satellite-derived bathymetry (SDB) provides an efficient approach for shallow-water mapping because of its wide spatial coverage and repeated observation capability. However, multi-temporal bathymetric results derived from optical imagery often exhibit substantial inconsistencies due to variations in atmospheric conditions, water optical properties, bottom reflectance, and imaging geometry. Moreover, different bathymetric intervals usually exhibit distinct uncertainty characteristics, while conventional global fusion methods generally apply a single statistical strategy to the entire depth range. To address this limitation, this study proposes an ICESat-2-constrained adaptive segment-wise rank-statistic fusion framework for multi-temporal SDB. The bathymetric range is adaptively divided into multiple depth intervals using ICESat-2 bathymetric control points, and the optimal rank-statistic fusion strategy is independently selected for each interval according to local RMSE evaluation. In this way, shallow-water outliers can be effectively suppressed, while deep-water systematic underestimation can be alleviated simultaneously. Experiments conducted in Ganquan Island, Dong Island, and Key Biscayne demonstrate that the proposed framework consistently outperforms individual single-scene results as well as conventional mean and median fusion methods. Compared with conventional mean and median fusion methods, the RMSE was reduced by up to 27.5%, while the coefficient of determination (R2) reached 0.95. Significant improvements were particularly observed in deeper bathymetric intervals and complex benthic environments. The results indicate that adaptive segmented rank-statistic fusion can effectively characterize bathymetric-dependent error variations and achieve unified optimization for shallow-water outlier suppression and deep-water bias correction.

Physiological Responses and Functional Performance of Eucheumatoid Seaweeds Under Prolonged Low-Salinity Stress - Jianling Zhan; Zhenwei Mo; Fen Cheng; Xianming Tang; Hong Du; Qiong Wu (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2026)
Low-salinity events caused by heavy rainfall and freshwater runoff pose significant environmental constraints on eucheumatoid seaweed mariculture in coastal areas. In this study, five eucheumatoid seaweeds, including three strains of Kappaphycus alvarezii (Hn-R, Hn-G, and Ma-R), Kappaphycus striatum, and Eucheuma denticulatum, were exposed to 22, 26, and 30 psu for 36 days. Growth performance, photosynthetic pigments, chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, oxidative damage, and antioxidant responses were determined. To compare the actual physiological performance of different seaweeds under each salinity condition, a functional performance score was calculated using membership function analysis based on relative growth rate, chlorophyll a, carotenoids, photosynthesis, and malondialdehyde. Low salinity generally reduced growth, photosynthetic pigment content, and photosystem II performance, while increasing malondialdehyde content and antioxidant-related parameters, indicating that prolonged low-salinity exposure induced both physiological inhibition and oxidative stress responses. At 22 psu, K. alvarezii Ma-R showed the strongest functional performance, followed by K. striatum and E. denticulatum. At 26 psu, E. denticulatum showed the strongest functional performance, followed by K. alvarezii Ma-R and K. striatum. These results indicate that eucheumatoid seaweeds differ in their functional performance under mild and more severe low-salinity tolerance, providing physiological evidence for selecting candidate eucheumatoid seaweeds for salinity-fluctuating coastal mariculture.

Toppling of a Rectangular Prismatic Block Resting on Two Orthogonal Planes - Bingdong Ding; Huiming Tang; Doug Stead; Leandro R. Alejano (Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering, 2026)
Toppling is an important rock slope failure mechanism, particularly in jointed rock masses. This study investigates a novel toppling mechanism of a rectangular prismatic block resting on two planes, for the case in which the block is formed by three orthogonal discontinuities. Two of these discontinuities would typically be cross-joints, forming a dihedral structure, with the third most persistent discontinuity being foliation or bedding planes dipping toward the slope. Block rotation around one edge, with lateral friction mobilized along the side discontinuity, characterizes the failure mechanism. To study this often-overlooked mechanism, the authors present a conceptual model consisting of a rectangular prismatic block resting on two orthogonal basal planes. The base of the lower rigid block, that is, the intersection of the two orthogonal basal planes, is inclined to the horizontal, and the lateral side of the block tends to generate lateral friction. A simplified analytical model based on the limit equilibrium method (LEM) was first introduced to assess stability of such a block considering lateral friction. This approach can be used to estimate critical toppling inclination angles and to identify the toppling rotation axis. Building on this model, a multi-scope approach was applied combining analytical, physical, and numerical investigations. Physical tilt tests and numerical simulations were then designed to investigate both the toppling behavior and critical toppling inclination angle allowing verification of the proposed theory. A preliminary field application illustrates the practical interest of the study to assess prismatic block toppling risk of failure. An effort is made to understand all the factors influencing the occurrence of this toppling failure mechanism which to date has often been unidentified and the subject of limited research.

Identification of Ferroptosis-related Genes Associated with the Prognosis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma - Kai Yan; Fangfang Hu; Haodong Tang; Jiahua Zhou (Cell Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2026)
Ferroptosis has been increasingly implicated in the progression of various tumors, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aimed to identify ferroptosis-related genes with prognostic significance in HCC. Differential expressed genes (DEGs) and long non-coding RNAs (DElncRNAs) were identified from TCGA LIHC RNA-seq data. A competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network was established based on ferroptosis-related lncRNA-mRNA pairs. Prognostic genes were identified through survival analysis, and selected DEGs were further validated via quantitative PCR. Co-expression analysis identified 218 lncRNA-mRNA pairs, including 216 DEGs and 11 DElncRNAs. Among these, 11 upregulated ferroptosis-related genes were identified as predicted targets of the lncRNA DDX11-AS1. MiR-195 and miR-424 both regulated CDC25A and HELLS. Elevated expression of DDX11-AS1, CDC25A, EZH2, FANCD2, and HELLS was associated with poorer survival. In vitro cellular experiments showed that the knockdown of DDX11-AS1, CDC25A, and HELLS inhibited cell proliferation and invasion by promoting ferroptosis in Huh7 cells. The 11 ferroptosis-related genes and DDX11-AS1 may serve as valuable prognostic biomarkers and potential immunotherapeutic targets in HCC.

Effects of Slamming-Induced Whipping on Fatigue Damage of an Ultra-Large Container Ship Advancing in Irregular Waves - Ying Tang; Ziyin Huang; Xiaojun Lv; Yucun Pan; Shili Sun; Huilong Ren; Yiheng Zhang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2026)
Slamming-induced whipping has been recognized as a key contributor to fatigue damage of large ships operating under severe sea states. However, accurate prediction of whipping responses remains challenging because of complex nonlinear fluid–structure interactions. This study aims to investigate the characteristics of slamming-induced whipping and quantitatively analyze its influence on the fatigue damage of an ultra-large container ship. A three-dimensional fully nonlinear time-domain hydroelastic method, in which the boundary element model is coupled with a Timoshenko beam model, is employed to predict the slamming-induced whipping responses. Segmented model tests in long-crested irregular waves are conducted to provide wave loads of hull girders under severe sea states. The total and wave-frequency vertical bending moments are separated by the fast Fourier transform, and their statistical characteristics are evaluated through probability distributions. Fatigue damage is assessed on the basis of the rainflow counting method and the Palmgren–Miner cumulative damage rule. The contribution of high-frequency whipping responses to fatigue damage is quantitatively evaluated using a fatigue damage factor. It is demonstrated that slamming-induced whipping can significantly amplify fatigue damage by increasing stress amplitudes and cycle counts, particularly under high forward speeds and severe sea conditions. The findings provide a reliable reference for the fatigue design and safety assessment of ultra-large container ships.

Combined Effect of Alternating Magnetic Field and Cryoprotectants on the Microstructure and Quality of Yellowfin Tuna During Assisted Re-Freezing - Qifei Zhang; Dazhang Yang; Jing Xie; Zixiao Wang; Panyu Tang (Fishes, 2026)
To address quality deterioration in yellowfin tuna during traditional freezing, this study systematically investigated the combined effects of alternating magnetic fields (AMFs) and two cryoprotectants (carboxylated cellulose nanofibers (CCNF); konjac glucomannan (KGM)). Twelve groups were established by combining four magnetic intensities (0, 5, 10, 15 mT) with three treatments (no cryoprotectant, 10 mg/mL CCNF, or KGM). The results show that AMF significantly shortened the freezing phase transition time and mitigated the phase transition delay induced by cryoprotectants. The optimal preservation was achieved by combining a 5 mT AMF with KGM (AMF5-KGM), which significantly reduced thawing, cooking, and centrifugation losses. Mechanistically, the 5 mT AMF and KGM synergistically stabilized the secondary and tertiary structures of myofibrillar proteins, whereas high-intensity AMF (>10 mT) and CCNF exacerbated protein conformational damage. Furthermore, the AMF5-KGM group exhibited maximal structural integrity, with the smallest ice crystal pore area (36.6%). Ultimately, this study demonstrates that a 5 mT, 50 Hz AMF combined with 10 mg/mL KGM synergistically improves the preservation quality of frozen yellowfin tuna, providing a theoretical basis for high-value pelagic fish product.

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Osmoregulation and Low-Salt Adaptation in the Brain and Gills of Eleutheronema tetradactylum - Weibin Liu; Zongfa Chen; Jingheng Lu; Baogui Tang; Hui Zhou; Bei Wang; Jiansheng Huang; Jing Li; Zhongliang Wang (Fishes, 2026)
The molecular coordination between the central nervous system and peripheral organs is fundamental to euryhalinity. This study elucidates the distinct adaptive strategies of the brain and gills in the four-finger threadfin (Eleutheronema tetradactylum), an aquaculture species of growing importance, during long-term (30-day) acclimation to low salinity (5 versus 25 control). A profound dichotomy in tissue-specific plasticity was uncovered: while the brain maintained remarkable transcriptional stability with only 10 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), the gills underwent extensive remodeling with 702 DEGs. Gill DEGs were functionally enriched in ion transport and metabolic remodeling, highlighted by the significant upregulation of the Na+-Cl− cotransporter (slc12a10) and the prolactin receptor (prlr), coupled with a profound downregulation (log2FC = −5.97) of aquaporin-1 (aqp1). This indicates a concerted strategy to enhance ion uptake while minimizing water permeability. In contrast, the brain’s subtle response was dominated by the upregulation of key neuroendocrine hormones, including growth hormone (gh), prolactin (prl), and pro-opiomelanocortin (pomc). This suggests a top-down regulatory cascade. Integrative pathway analysis identified the PI3K-Akt and JAK-STAT signaling pathways as the primary conduits linking central hormonal signals to peripheral physiological adjustments. These results demonstrate that the euryhalinity of E. tetradactylum is achieved through a highly efficient strategy: a transcriptionally stable brain provides precise endocrine commands that orchestrate robust peripheral remodeling in the gills. This study deciphers the molecular basis of the brain–gill axis in osmoregulation and provides a rich repository of candidate genes for the genetic improvement of low salinity tolerance in aquaculture.

Elevation‐Dependence of Different Precipitation Phases Concentrations in the Asian Water Tower: Differences in Rainfall and Snowfall Concentration Changes - Yuanlong Tang; Xuemei Li; Tao Che; Dongyang Zhang; Guigang Wang; Huane Duan; Yue Zhang; Chen Yao; Xiaoxiao Jiang; Guojin Pang (International Journal of Climatology, 2026)
Precipitation concentration is a key indicator for characterising spatio‐temporal heterogeneity of precipitation and assessing hydrological responses to climate change. Nevertheless, most existing studies have concentrated on total precipitation, neglecting how different precipitation phases (rainfall and snowfall) exhibit distinct concentration patterns and sensitivities to climatic forcing. This omission has limited understanding of hydro‐climatic processes in high‐altitude regions, where shift of precipitation from solid to liquid (SPSL) strongly modulates water resources and extreme events. Addressing this gap is challenging in the Asian Water Tower (AWT), given extreme topographic complexity, sparse observations, and strong influence of multiple circulation systems. Using ERA5‐Land reanalysis data at approximately 10 km (0.1°) spatial resolution (1980–2023), combined with a validated precipitation phase discrimination method, we investigate phase‐specific precipitation concentration indicators across the AWT. This study provides one of the first region‐wide, phase‐resolved assessments of precipitation concentration in the AWT by jointly quantifying rainfall and snowfall. It further examines their contrasting elevation‐dependent behaviours, extending previous work that focused solely on total precipitation concentration. Rainfall was strongly clustered in summer and exhibited relatively stable trends, whereas snowfall peaked in late winter–spring. Notably, snowfall concentration diverged by elevation, with increasing concentration at lower elevations but decreasing concentration at higher elevations, highlighting phase‐specific sensitivity to warming. Modulation of precipitation concentration by large‐scale circulations was evident. Indices such as ENSO and Indian Summer Monsoon Index (ISMI) significantly influenced seasonal concentration. El Niño conditions were associated with more temporally dispersed rainfall, whereas La Niña conditions enhanced clustering in southern AWT. In contrast, snowfall concentration index (SCI) was positively influenced by cold‐air outbreaks linked to Siberian High and mid‐latitude westerlies. By explicitly contrasting rainfall and snowfall concentration, this study advances beyond previous total‐precipitation analyses and demonstrates a new pathway to identify hydrological instability in alpine regions. Findings advance understanding of precipitation phase dynamics in high‐altitude regions and offer implications for disaster early warning, seasonal water allocation, and climate‐resilient reservoir management in snow‐dominated basins.

Endothelial AGO1 deficiency reduces breast cancer burden in mice - Xuejing Liu; Alonso Tapia; Dongqiang Yuan; Xiaofang Tang; Yingjun Luo; Naseeb Kaur Malhi; Muxi Chen; Kwan Ho Law; Mohamad Haidar; Skylar Giacobetti; Jiawei Sun; Anthony Park; et al. (Angiogenesis, 2026)
Endothelial cells (ECs) are crucial in cancer development and progression, partly by regulating tumor angiogenesis and immune modulation. As a key component of the RNA-induced silencing complex, Argonaute 1 (AGO1) regulates tumor biology, yet the specific function of AGO1 within ECs in the tumor microenvironment remains undefined. Here, we investigated the effects of endothelial-specific AGO1 knockout (EC-AGO1-KO) on tumor vascularization and immune regulation in a mouse syngeneic breast cancer model induced by E0771 cells. EC-AGO1-KO mice exhibited significantly reduced tumor burden compared to their wild-type (WT) littermates, accompanied by reduced vascularization and enhanced immune cell infiltration. Histological and single-cell RNA sequencing analyses revealed increased infiltration of CD8⁺ T cells and macrophages in EC-AGO1-KO tumors, indicative of an immunostimulatory microenvironment. In vitro, AGO1 knockdown in mouse ECs co-cultured with E0771 tumor cells led to higher levels of Cxcl10 and Vcam1 expression, suggesting a pro-inflammatory and leukocyte-recruiting effect. Together, these findings identify endothelial AGO1 as a key regulator of tumor vasculature and immune homeostasis in breast cancer, suggesting that targeting endothelial AGO1 may represent a novel therapeutic strategy to modulate tumor vasculature while enhancing anti-tumor immunity.

Effect of Cable Failure on the Wind-Induced Vibration of a Single-Pylon Cable-Stayed Bridge - Jingtao Xing; Haojun Tang; Jia Kang; Yongle Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2026)
The dynamic characteristics and buffeting response of long-span single-pylon cable-stayed bridges are not fully understood after cable failure occurs in coastal wind environments. This study investigates how the location, number, and pattern of cable failures affect structural performance. A three-dimensional finite element model of a 280 m main-span bridge was established using the aerodynamic coefficients extracted from wind tunnel tests. Modal analyses and nonlinear time-domain simulations were conducted. The results show that frequency reduction concentrates in lower-order vertical bending modes, with the first and second modes being the most sensitive. Variations in frequency are closely related to the failure location of stay cables, with the largest reduction at the mode antinode. Unilateral multiple failures induce bending–torsion coupling, whereas symmetric bilateral failures only lower frequencies. Under wind loads, the failure of stay cables results in the redistribution of static internal forces, primarily to the adjacent stay cables on the same side. This phenomenon is enhanced as the number of failed cables increases. The change in buffeting internal forces results in a non-monotonic trend, and the shorter cables near the pylon are more sensitive. Cable failure, which occurs at different phases of the buffeting process, significantly influences the structure's transient response. The scenario in which the structure is subjected to wind loads after cable failure results in the largest variation amplitude.

CRFPA: A Novel Rock Fracture Process Analysis Method Coupled with Cohesive Zone Model - Jiang Yu; Bin Gong; Tingting Wang; Chun’an Tang (Rock Mechanics and Rock Engineering, 2026)
To enhance the effectiveness of fracture process simulation within the Rock Fracture Process Analysis (RFPA) framework, this study proposes a cohesive-enhanced RFPA (CRFPA) method. Cohesive elements are pre-inserted along potential fracture interfaces, either globally or locally, providing modeling flexibility tailored to different simulation objectives. A dual constitutive strategy is employed: cohesive elements adopt both brittle and quasi-brittle constitutive models to accommodate a wider range of material behaviors while solid elements retain the brittle damage model of conventional RFPA. This allows accurate distinction between matrix cracking and interfacial degradation. The method is formulated within a variational framework that ensures thermodynamic consistency, guaranteeing proper energy dissipation and irreversible damage evolution throughout the entire loading history. Leveraging RFPA’s full-step iteration scheme, CRFPA achieves stable convergence while capturing progressive interface and matrix failure. Three benchmark examples, a masonry wallette shear test, a Brazilian disc splitting test, and flaw-driven crack propagation, are used to validate CRFPA method. Simulation results show strong agreement with experimental and analytical references, highlighting improvements in crack path realism, stress field resolution, and failure mode prediction compared to traditional RFPA. This study establishes CRFPA as a robust and versatile numerical framework for multi-scale fracture analysis in quasi-brittle materials.

Genome Analysis and Reproductive Observations Suggest Allotetraploidy and a Potential Reproduction–Metabolism Association in the Endangered Fish Neolissochilus heterostomus - Tiaoyi Xiao; Zhichao Wu; Dongfang Li; Beibei Qin; Shengguo Tang; Chengyi Lin; Kuayun Mao; Jinwu Yin; Zhihu Li; Hongquan Wang; Zhao Lv (Fishes, 2026)
Neolissochilus heterostomus, a cyprinid fish endemic to Yunnan Province, China, is highly valued for both ornamental and edible purposes, yet its wild populations are currently declining and classified as endangered. In this study, we present a chromosome-level genome assembly of N. heterostomus, utilizing the PacBio HiFi and Hi-C strategies. The assembled genome spans 1793.99 Mb and is anchored to 50 chromosomes, comprising a total of 50,203 genes. Genomic features and chromosomal karyotype data recorded in the present study are consistent with an allotetraploid origin for N. heterostomus. Comparative genomics shows that N. heterostomus shares a close phylogenetic relationship with another allotetraploid fish, the common carp Cyprinus carpio. In total, 4687 expanded and 1365 contracted gene families were identified in N. heterostomus. Further enrichment analyses indicated an overrepresentation of metabolism-related pathways among the expanded and positively selected gene families, whereas the contracted gene families were enriched in reproduction- and embryonic development-related pathways. Reproductive observations further indicate that N. heterostomus produces fewer eggs than other cyprinid species characterized by relatively long embryonic development periods (106.1 h; accumulated temperature: 2260.6 °C·h), including common carp, goldfish (Carassius auratus), grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella), pond loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus), and blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala). These findings suggest a potential association between metabolism-related genomic features and reproductive traits, although functional validation remains necessary. Overall, this study may offer insights into the polyploidization, metabolic, and reproductive traits of N. heterostomus, thereby providing genomic and biological resources that may support future studies relevant to the conservation and management of this endangered species.

CART Rule-Guided MaxEnt Model Construction and Its Application in Fishing Ground Prediction of Chub Mackerel in the Northwestern Pacific Ocean - Zuli Wu; Fenghua Tang; Yumei Wu; Shengmao Zhang; Fei Wang; Xuesen Cui (Fishes, 2026)
Chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus) is a commercially important pelagic species in the northwest Pacific Ocean. Accurate identification of its fishing grounds can provide a more robust and targeted scientific basis for fishery management and ecological research. Based on fishing effort and five environmental factors (i.e., sea surface temperature [SST], chlorophyll-a concentration [CHL], SST gradient [GSST], sea surface height [SSH], and current speed), this study developed a Classification and Regression Tree (CART) rule-guided MaxEnt model. Specifically, rules generated by the CART model were first extracted and then incorporated as constrained feature functions into MaxEnt for model training. To select the optimal model scheme, four combinations of rule compositions and feature function outputs were designed, and model performance on the validation dataset was evaluated using ROC curves. Finally, the model was further verified with in situ environmental and fisheries data from April to November 2024. Results showed that the predicted fishing grounds were highly aligned with the actual monthly fishing grounds in 2024, and the predicted migration routes matched the movement trajectory of fishing vessels. The model also exhibited satisfactory performance, achieving an average AUC of 0.722 ± 0.033, a sensitivity of 0.604, a specificity of 0.834, and a negative predictive value (NPV) of 0.978. In conclusion, the CART rule-guided MaxEnt model, integrating the interpretability of CART and the predictive power of MaxEnt, effectively predicts the spatial distribution of chub mackerel fishing grounds in the northwest Pacific Ocean, providing technical support for fishery management and ecological research.
