A structurally stable crystalline carbon allotrope is predicted by means of the first-principles calculations. This can be derived substituting each atom in diamond with a tetrahedron, and possesses same space group $Fd\overline{3}m$ as diamond, which thus coined T-carbon. The calculations on geometrical, vibrational, electronic properties reveal that T-carbon, considerable structural stability much lower density $1.50\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{g}/{\mathrm{cm}}^{3}$, semiconductor direct band...
Abstract Tidal response to sea‐level rise (SLR) varies in different coastal systems. To provide a generic pattern of tidal SLR, systematic investigation was conducted using numerical techniques applied idealized and realistic estuaries, with model results cross‐checked by analytical solutions. Our reveal that the range SLR is nonlinear, spatially heterogeneous, highly affected length bathymetry an estuary weakly convergence exception strong convergence. Contrary common assumption leads...
A new species of the praying mantis genus Arria Stål, pura sp. nov. from southwest China is described and illustrated. An overview, comparison, distribution data this tribe are given. synonym created: Sinomiopteryx yunnanensis Xu, 2007 a junior pallida (Zhang, 1987). One combination brevifrons (Wang, 1991) comb. (from Tinkham), proposed.
China's Three Gorges Dam has generated a large riparian zone around the reservoir that changed natural fluctuation in water level (FWL) and intensity of anthropogenic disturbance (AD, i.e. human activities triggering pollutant input). Knowledge about how soil properties respond to such changes remains limited. The aims this study were identify distribution determine which types factors, local‐scale FWL or regional‐scale AD, have larger effect on properties. A total 144 composite samples,...
Abstract. We study the compound flooding processes that occurred in Hurricane Florence (2018), which was accompanied by heavy precipitation, using a 3D creek-to-ocean hydrodynamic model. examine important role played barrier islands observed surges coastal watershed. Locally very high resolution is used some watershed areas order to resolve small features turn out be critical for capturing water marks locally. The wave effects are found significant near and have contributed over-toppings...
More than 95% of phytophagous true bug (Hemiptera: Heteroptera) species belong to four superfamilies: Miroidea (Cimicomorpha), Pentatomoidea, Coreoidea, and Lygaeoidea (all Pentatomomorpha). These iconic groups highly diverse, overwhelmingly insects include several economically prominent agricultural silvicultural pest species, though their evolutionary history has not yet been well resolved. In particular, superfamily- family-level phylogenetic relationships these lineages have remained...
ATP-dependent Clp protease (ClpP) is an attractive new target for the development of anti-infective agents. The ClpP consists two heptameric rings that enclose a large chamber containing 14 proteolytic active sites. Recent studies indicate likely undergoes conformational switching between extended and degraded state required substrate proteolysis compacted catalytically inactive allowing product release. Here, we present wild-type structures in distinct states from Staphylococcus aureus. One...
Two novel nitrogenous diterpenoids, sarinfacetamides A (1) and B (2), featuring an uncommon tricyclo[6.3.1.01,5]dodecane scaffold, a known related diterpene (3) were isolated from the South China Sea soft coral Sarcophyton infundibuliforme. Their structures, including absolute configuration of 1, established by extensive spectroscopic analysis TDDFT-ECD calculation. Compounds 1 3 exhibited interesting promotion effects on ConA-induced T lymphocyte proliferation. plausible biosynthetic...
The probiotic properties of two selected lactobacilli strains were assessed. L. salivarius and plantarum displayed higher hydrophobicity (48% 54%, resp.) coaggregation ability with four pathogens (from 7.9% to 57.5%). had good inhibitory effects on S. aureus (38.2% 49.5%, attachment Caco-2 cells. Live their conditioned media effectively inhibited IL-8 production (<14.6 pg/mL) in TNF- α -induced Antibiotic-treated the sonicated also maintained (IL-8 from 5.0 36.3 pg/mL); however,...
Abstract Background The 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV or SARS-CoV-2) has spread more rapidly than any other betacoronavirus including SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV. However, the mechanisms responsible for infection molecular evolution of this virus remained unclear. Methods We collected analyzed 120 genomic sequences 2019-nCoV 11 genomes from patients in China. Through comprehensive analysis available genome strains, we have tracked multiple inheritable SNPs determined relative to coronaviruses....
Increasing frequency of extreme precipitation events under the future warming climate makes storm-related pollutant release more and threatening to coastal ecosystems. Hurricane Harvey, a 1000-year event, caused massive from Houston metropolitan area adjacent Galveston Bay. 0.57 × 106 tons raw sewage 22,000 barrels oil, refined fuels chemicals were reportly released during which would likely deteriorate water quality damage ecosystem. Using Lagrangian particle-tracking method coupled with...
The riparian zone is an important location of nitrogen removal in the terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Many studies have focused on efficiency one or two processes zone, less attention has been paid to interaction different transformation impact situ environmental conditions. molecular biotechnology, microcosm culture experiments 15N stable isotope tracing techniques were used this research at Weinan section Wei River, reveal mechanism with multi-layer lithologic structure. results showed...
Abstract Post Hurricane Abnormal Water Level (PHAWL) poses a persistent inundation threat to coastal communities, yet unresolved knowledge gaps exist regarding its spatiotemporal impacts and causal mechanisms. Using high-resolution model with set of observations, we find that the PHAWLs are up 50 cm higher than normal water levels for several weeks cause delayed inundations around residential areas U.S. Southeast Coast (USSC). Numerical experiments reveal while atmospheric forcing modulates...
Denitrification is vital to nitrogen removal and N2O release in ecosystems; this regard, paddy soils exhibit strong denitrifying ability. However, the underlying mechanism of emission from denitrification yet be elucidated. In study, potential rate, enzymatic activity for production reduction, gene abundance, community composition during were investigated using 15N isotope tracer technique combined with slurry incubation, detection, quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), metagenomic...
