Precipitation Efficiency Constraint on Climate Change
<p>Precipitation efficiency (PE) relates cloud condensation to precipitation and intrinsically binds atmospheric circulation to the hydrological cycle. Due to PE's inherent microphysical dependencies, definitions and estimates vary immensely. Consequently, PE's sensitivity to greenhouse warming and implications for climate change are poorly understood. Here, we quantify PE's role in climate change by defining a simple index as the ratio of surface precipitation to condensed water path. This macroscopic metric is reconcilable with microphysical PE measures and higher is associated with stronger mean Walker circulation. We further find that state-of-the-art climate models disagree on the sign and magnitude of future changes. This sign disagreement originates from models' convective parameterizations. Critically, models with increasing under greenhouse warming, in line with cloud-resolving simulations, show greater slowdown of the large-scale Hadley and Walker circulations and a two-fold greater increase in extreme rainfall than models with decreasing.</p>
Drop characteristics from the UNIGE calibration device for non-catching precipitation instruments
<p>These data are from the paper "Calibration uncertainty of non-catching precipitation gauges", by Baire, Q. et al., accepted for publication on the journal Sensors. A rain drop generator, developed at the University of Genova, is presented in that paper using two high-precision syringe pumps, with a capacity of 20 and 1 ml (20 and 4.5 mm piston diameter, respectively), to produce water drops of the required volume. An electric field, generated by a high voltage trigger, allows releasing each single drop on demand. Each drop is generated at the tip of a suitable nozzle by dispensing the necessary volume to achieve the desired drop size and then detached by exploiting a 5 kV potential difference, where the water is negatively charged and attracted by a metal ring (positively charged), positioned just below the tip of the nozzle. By using different nozzles/needles and the proper syringe pump, drops of various size are produced.</p> <p>Validation of drop size measurements was obtained by weighing the total volume of samples of about 20 to 45 drops with a precision balance having a resolution of 0.001 g. Drops were released at 1.20 m above the center of the measurement plane of the camera.</p> <p>Results are summarized in Table 2 in the paper in terms of the average drop diameter obtained from the software and the balance, and their difference. Drop size characteristics as obtained from the photogrammetric system are included in the database for the generated sets of drops. A second set of tests was conducted using the photogrammetric system alone, without weighing the overall water volume. Statistics of the detected drop diameter and fall velocity are listed in Tables 3 and 4 in the paper, together with the number of released drops during each test, while the single drop size and fall velocity characteristics are included in the dataset.</p>
Monthly water storage anomalies, precipitation, and groundwater recharge in two karstic basins, southwest China (2003-2014)
<p>This dataset includes the regionally-averaged monthly hydrological data in two karstic basins, southwest China which are processed or estimated for the manuscript entitled "A novel approach for assessing groundwater recharge by combining GRACE and baseflow with case studies in karst areas of southwest China" by Huang et al., 2022 (submitted to Water Resources Research, Major Revision).</p> <p><strong>Basin description:</strong></p> <p>The Wujiang River Basin (WRB, ~87,900 km<sup>2</sup>, ~70% karstification) and Xijiang River Basin (XRB, ~360,000 km<sup>2</sup>, ~44% karstification) are two typical karstic basins in southwest China. The Wujiang River is the largest tributary in the southern part of the upper Yangtze River. It is originated from the Wumeng Mountain in the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau and flows from Guizhou to Chongqing. The Xijiang River is the largest tributary of the Pearl River (the largest river in southern China). It is originated from the mountains in eastern Yunnan and flows to Guangxi, Guangdong, and finally into the South China Sea.</p> <p><strong>Data description:</strong></p> <p>1. TWSA (unit: mm in equivalent water thickness) is the average terrestrial water storage anomaly data obtained from three release 6 GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment) mascon solutions, i.e., the Center for Space Research (CSR) at the University of Texas (<a href="http://www2.csr.utexas.edu/grace/RL06_mascons.html">http://www2.csr.utexas.edu/grace/RL06_mascons.html</a>), Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL, <a href="https://podaac.jpl.nasa.gov/dataset/TELLUS_GRAC-GRFO_MASCON_CRI_GRID_RL06_V2">https://podaac.jpl.nasa.gov/dataset/TELLUS_GRAC-GRFO_MASCON_CRI_GRID_RL06_V2</a>), and Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC, <a href="https://earth.gsfc.nasa.gov/geo/data/grace-mascons">https://earth.gsfc.nasa.gov/geo/data/grace-mascons</a>). The anomalies were estimated by removing a mean background value during 2006-2012.</p> <p>2. SMSA and SWSA (unit: mm in equivalent water thickness) are the soil moisture storage anomaly and surface water storage anomaly data based on the model simulations by WGHM (v2.2d) provided by Dr. Hannes Müller Schmied (email: hannes.mueller.schmied@em.uni-frankfurt.de) at Institute of Physical Geography, Goethe-University Frankfurt. The anomalies were estimated by removing a mean background value during 2006-2012.</p> <p>3. Precipitation data (unit: mm/month) were based on the monthly gridded (0.5×0.5 degree) data product obtained from China Meteorological Administration (CMA, https://data.cma.cn/) which was interpolated from ground-based data measured by meteorological stations.</p> <p>4. Groundwater recharge (unit: mm/month) was estimated based on the groundwater budget method, i.e., the summation of groundwater storage change (GWSC) and baseflow. GRACE-based recharge was estimated using the GWSC derived from GRACE TWSA, WGHM-simulated SMSA and SWSA and in situ-based reservoir storage data. Observation-based recharge was estimated using the GWSC based on in situ groundwater-level data and specific yield (or storage coefficient). Both GRACE- and observation-based recharge were estimated using the baseflow separated by a multiple linear regression using the in situ streamflow as predictand, and precipitation and water table depth data as predictors.</p> <p>Time span: 2003-2014. The time lable like "200301" means January, 2003. "200312" means December, 2003.</p>

Soil microbes respond to four-year warming and precipitation alteration
<p><span>The alpine grasslands of the Tibetan Plateau store 23.2 Pg soil organic carbon (SOC), which becomes susceptible to microbial degradation with climate warming. However, accurate prediction of how the soil carbon (C) stock changes under future climate warming is hampered by our limited understanding of below-ground complex microbial communities. Here, we show that 4 years of warming strongly stimulated methane (CH<sub>4</sub>) uptake by 93.8% and aerobic respiration (CO<sub>2</sub>) by % in the soils of alpine grassland ecosystem. Due to no significant effects of warming on net ecosystem CO<sub>2</sub> exchange (NEE), the warming-stimulated CH<sub>4</sub> uptake enlarged the carbon sink capacity of whole ecosystem. Furthermore, precipitation alternation didn't alter such warming effects, despite the significant effects of precipitation on NEE and soil CH<sub>4</sub> flux</span><span><span>es</span><span> were observed. Metagenomic sequencing revealed that </span></span><span>warming led to significant shifts in the overall microbial community structure and the abundances of functional genes, which contrasted to no detectable changes after 2 years of warming. Carbohydrate utilization genes were significantly increased by warming, corresponding with significant increases in soil aerobic respiration. Increased methanotrophic genes and decreased methanogenic genes were observed under warming, which significantly (<em>R<sup>2</sup> </em>= 0.59, <em>P</em> < 0.001) correlated with warming-enhanced CH<sub>4</sub> uptakes. Furthermore, 212 metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) were recovered, including many populations involved in the degradation of various organic matter and a highly-abundant methylotrophic population of the <em>Methyloceanibacter</em> genus. Collectively, our results provide compelling evidence that specific microbial functional traits for CH<sub>4 </sub>and CO<sub>2</sub> cycling processes respond to climate warming with differential effects on soil greenhouse gas emissions. Alpine grasslands may play huge roles in mitigating climate warming through such microbially-enhanced CH<sub>4</sub> uptake.</span></p>

Widespread variation in functional trait-vital rate relationships in tropical tree seedlings across a precipitation and soil phosphorus gradient
<p>A fundamental assumption of functional ecology is that functional traits are related to interspecific variation in performance. However, the relationship between functional traits and performance is often weak or uncertain, especially for plants. A potential explanation for this inconsistency is that the relationship between functional traits and vital rates (e.g., growth and mortality) is dependent on local environmental conditions, which would lead to variation in trait-rate relationships across environmental gradients. In this study, we examined trait-rate relationships for six functional traits (seed mass, wood density, maximum height, leaf mass per area, leaf area, and leaf dry matter content) using long-term data on seedling growth and survival of woody plant species from eight forest sites spanning a pronounced precipitation and soil phosphorus gradient in central Panama. For all traits considered except for leaf mass per area-mortality, leaf mass per area-growth, and leaf area-mortality relationships, we found widespread variation in the strength of trait-rate relationships across sites. For some traits, trait-rate relationships showed no overall trend but displayed wide site-to-site variation. In a small subset of cases, variation in trait-rate relationships was explained by soil phosphorus availability. Our results demonstrate that environmental gradients have the potential to influence how functional traits are related to growth and mortality rates, though much variation remains to be explained. Accounting for site-to-site variation may help resolve a fundamental issue in trait-based ecology – that traits are often weakly related to performance – and improve the utility of functional traits for explaining key ecological and evolutionary processes.</p>
Liquid-liquid phase reaction between crystal violet and sodium hydroxide: kinetic study and precipitate analysis
<p>To investigate reaction order and kinetic parameters of the reaction between crystal violet (CV) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH), various concentrations of the reactants were applied. The present work also verifies the unknown solid product produced under highly concentrated conditions. The reaction orders of CV and NaOH were determined to be 1 and 1.17 by pseudo-rate method, respectively, with a rate constant, k, of 0.084 [(M-1.17) s-1]. In addition to pseudo-rate method, the half-life approach is use to calculated the overall reaction order to verify the accuracy of pseudo-rate method. The overall reaction order is determined to be 1.9 by half-life method. Compare reaction order gained from both methods, the overall reaction order is determined as ~2. The precipitate formation was observed when high concentrations of CV (0.01~0.1 M) and NaOH (1.0 M) were applied. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to compare the spectra of the precipitate generated and a commercial solvent violet 9 (SV9). Based on the FTIR spectra, it was confirmed that the molecular structure of the precipitate matched that of solvent violet 9.</p>
T cell deficiency precipitates antibody evasion and emergence of neurovirulent polyomavirus
<p>JC polyomavirus (JCPyV) causes progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a life-threatening brain disease in immunocompromised patients. Inherited and acquired T cell deficiencies are associated with PML. The incidence of PML is increasing with the introduction of new immunomodulatory agents, several of which target T cells or B cells. PML patients often carry mutations in the JCPyV VP1 capsid protein, which confer resistance to neutralizing VP1 antibodies (Ab). Polyomaviruses (PyV) are tightly species-specific; the absence of tractable animal models has handicapped understanding of PyV pathogenesis. Using mouse polyomavirus (MuPyV), we found that T cell deficiency during persistent infection, in the setting of monospecific VP1 Ab, was required for outgrowth of VP1 Ab-escape viral variants. CD4 T cells were primarily responsible for limiting polyomavirus infection in the kidney, a major reservoir of persistent infection by both JCPyV and MuPyV, and checking emergence of these mutant viruses. T cells also provided a second line of defense by controlling the outgrowth of VP1 mutant viruses that evaded Ab neutralization. A virus with two capsid mutations, one conferring Ab-escape yet impaired infectivity and a second compensatory mutation, yielded a highly neurovirulent variant. These findings link T cell deficiency and evolution of Ab-escape polyomavirus VP1 variants with neuropathogenicity.</p>
Cyanobacterial- and moss-forming biocrusts consistently mitigate the temperature sensitivity of microbial respiration along a continental precipitation gradient
<p>1. Biocrusts are prevalent and participate in many soil organic carbon (C) processes in drylands. The predicted increase in aridity will expand the biocrust cover and significantly impact soil organic C dynamics. However, how biocrusts change soil organic C decomposition and what factors drive the effect in response to climate warming remains largely unknown at a continental scale.</p> <p>2. We measured microbial respiration and its temperature sensitivity (Q10) in bare soil lacking biocrusts and two universal biocrusted soils (cyanobacterial- and moss-crusted soil) from 43 sites across a precipitation gradient from 39 mm to 443 mm to evaluate the relative effects of biocrusts on Q10 and the driving forces in northern China's dryland.</p> <p>3. Microbial respiration increased and Q10 decreased with increasing precipitation in bare soil, cyanobacterial- and moss-crusted soil. Biocrusts positively affected microbial respiration, with a more substantial magnitude by moss crusts than cyanobacterial crusts. Biocrusts negatively impacted Q10, and the magnitudes were similar between moss and cyanobacterial crusts. Most importantly, the relative effects of biocrusts on microbial respiration and Q10 increased with decreasing precipitation.</p> <p>4. The positive effects of biocrusts on soil organic C content and microbial biomass carbon were positively correlated with the level of increased microbial respiration. Contrastingly, the magnitude of reduced Q10 was attributed to the biocrusts' positive effects on soil organic C quality and adverse effects on the ratio of fungal to bacterial PLFAs (F: B).</p> <p>5. Our study provides strong evidence that biocrusts decrease the temperature sensitivity of microbial respiration in northern China's dryland. This result suggests that the predicted expanding biocrust cover is crucial for maintaining the soil organic C stability by buffering the positive impacts of climate warming on soil organic C decomposition in drylands.</p>
