Low soil phosphorus availability triggers maize growth stage specific rhizosphere processes leading to mineralization of organic P

Phosphorus (P) is one of the essential nutrients for all living organisms. High-quality mineral P fertilizer is a finite resource with only an estimated 80-100 years of reserves remaining globally. Both plants and microbes have developed several mechanisms such as secretion of organic acids, acidification of the rhizosphere, and production of extracellular enzymes to enhance the acquisition of P from soils. Increased activity of phosphatase occurs in response to P deficiency as part of P starvation responses which catalyze the hydrolysis of P o from soil organic matter (SOM) and release inorganic P (P i ). However, the specific interactions between plants and microbial communities in the rhizosphere soil triggered by P deficiency are largely unknown. In a greenhouse study we grew maize plants in low and high P containing soils and examined the role of rhizosphere processes on mineralization of organic P (P o ) in soils with low and high P availability and different P speciation 23 (Po dominated versus P i dominated) and determine its effect on plant growth. Plant biomass was determined and rhizosphere soils, and soil samples from pots with and without plants were collected at key vegetative growth stages (VGS). A variety of biogeochemical parameters (e.g. microbial biomass C and P, potential phosphatase activities, plant biomass P, soil P species etc.) were determined using both conventional (sequential chemical extraction) and advanced (e.g. high resolution mass spectrometry (FTICR-MS) and 3129 P solution NMR) techniques. Here, we used phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) and DNA based microbial community analysis to track changes in microbial community structure and diversity. Low P availability induced changes in biogeochemical processes and microbial community composition in the rhizosphere soils of plants grown in low P containing soil. At early VGS, the plants in low P soil were visually struggling which correlated with greater rhizosphere potential acid phosphatase activity and a reduction in P o fractions. At late VGS, the plants appeared to recover which correlated with a decrease in Meh (III) extractable P, an increase in microbial biomass C and P and greater total P in the plant biomass (roots, shoots and leaves). In high P containing soil, on the other hand, greater P availability masked these rhizosphere processes. Our results confirmed the degradation of SOM and Po mineralization in rhizosphere soils driven by microbe and plant need for P. P deficiency may have favored the abundance of fungi which utilized easily degradable root exudates for the production of extracellular enzymes responsible for the mineralize of SOM P o . This study highlights the intertwined mechanisms involved, and emphasizes the importance of, P o sources for plant nutrition and survival in marginal soils.

Impacts of The Wetland Sedge Carex aquatilis on Microbial Community and Methane Metabolisms

Microbial activity in the soil of wetlands is responsible for the emission of more methane to the atmosphere than all other natural sources combined. This microbial activity is heavily impacted by plant roots, which influence the microbial community by exuding organic compounds and by leaking oxygen into an otherwise anoxic environment. This study compared the microbial communities of planted and unplanted wetland soil from an Alaskan bog to elucidate how plant growth influences populations and metabolisms of methanogens and methanotrophs. A common boreal wetland sedge, Carex aquatilis, was grown in the laboratory and DNA samples were sequenced from the rhizosphere, unplanted bulk soil, and a simulated rhizosphere with oxygen input but no organic carbon. The abundance of both methanogens and methanotrophs were positively correlated with methane emissions. Among the methanotrophs, both aerobic and anaerobic methane oxidizing microbes were more common in the rhizosphere of mature plants than in unplanted soil, while facultative methanotrophs capable of utilizing either methane or other molecules became relatively less common. Furthermore, these trends indicate that the roots in this experiment created an environment which favored highly specialized microbial metabolisms over generalist approaches. One aspect of this specialized microbiome is the presence of both aerobic and anaerobic metabolisms, which indicates that oxygen is present but is a limiting resource controlling competition.

Biochemical and spectroscopic characterizations of the oligomeric antenna of the coral symbiotic Symbiodiniaceae Fugacium kawagutii

Light-harvesting antennas in photosynthesis capture light energy and transfer it to the reaction centers (RCs) where photochemistry takes place. The sustainable growth of the reef-building corals relies on a constant supply of the photosynthates produced by the endosymbiotic dinoflagellate, belonging to the family of Symbiodiniaceae. The antenna system in this group consists of the water-soluble peridinin-chlorophyll $\textit{a}$-protein (PCP) and the intrinsic membrane chlorophyll $\textit{a}$-chlorophyll $c_2$-peridinin protein complex (acpPC). In this report, a nonameric acpPC is reported in a dinoflagellate, Fugasium kawagutii (formerly Symbiodinium kawagutii sp. CS-156). We found that extensive biochemical purification altered the oligomerization states of the initially isolated nonameric acpPC. The excitation energy transfer pathways in the acpPC nonamer and its variants were studied using time-resolved fluorescence and time-resolved absorption spectroscopic techniques at 77 K. Compared to the well-characterized trimeric acpPC, the nonameric acpPC contains an 11 nm red-shifted terminal energy emitter and substantially altered excited state lifetimes of Chl $\textit{a}$. The observed energetic overlap of the fluorescence terminal energy emitters with the absorption of RCs is hypothesized to enable efficient downhill excitation energy transfer. Additionally, the shortened Chl $\textit{a}$ fluorescence decay lifetime in the oligomeric acpPC indicate a protective self-relaxation strategy. We propose that the highly-oligomerized acpPC nonamer represents an intact functional unit in the Symbiodiniaceae thylakoid membrane. They perform efficient excitation energy transfer (to RCs), and are under manageable regulations in favor of photoprotection.

Solving MaxCut with quantum imaginary time evolution

We introduce a method to solve the MaxCut problem efficiently based on quantum imaginary time evolution (QITE). We employ a linear Ansatz for unitary updates and an initial state involving no entanglement, as well as an imaginary-time-dependent Hamiltonian interpolating between a given graph and a subgraph with two edges excised. We apply the method to thousands of randomly selected graphs with up to fifty vertices. We show that our algorithm exhibits a 93% and above performance converging to the maximum solution of the MaxCut problem for all considered graphs. Our results compare favorably with the performance of classical algorithms, such as the greedy and Goemans–Williamson algorithms. We also discuss the overlap of the final state of the QITE algorithm with the ground state as a performance metric, which is a quantum feature not shared by other classical algorithms.

Two-Phase Flow Mechanisms Controlling CO2 Intrusion into Shaly Caprock

Abstract Geologic carbon storage in deep saline aquifers has emerged as a promising technique to mitigate climate change. CO 2 is buoyant at the storage conditions and tends to float over the resident brine jeopardizing long-term containment goals. Therefore, the caprock sealing capacity is of great importance and requires detailed assessment. We perform supercritical CO 2 injection experiments on shaly caprock samples (intact caprock and fault zone) under representative subsurface conditions. We numerically simulate the experiments, satisfactorily reproducing the observed evolution trends. Simulation results highlight the dynamics of CO 2 flow through the specimens with implications to CO 2 leakage risk assessment in field practices. The large injection-induced overpressure drives CO 2 in free phase into the caprock specimens. However, the relative permeability increase following the drainage path is insufficient to provoke an effective advancement of the free-phase CO 2 . As a result, the bulk CO 2 front becomes almost immobile. This implies that the caprock sealing capacity is unlikely to be compromised by a rapid capillary breakthrough and the injected CO 2 does not penetrate deep into the caprock. In the long term, the intrinsically slow molecular diffusion appears to dominate the migration of CO 2 dissolved into brine. Nonetheless, the inherently tortuous nature of shaly caprock further holds back the diffusive flow, favoring safe underground storage of CO 2 over geological time scales.

Computational Investigations of the Reactivity of Metalloporphyrins for Ammonia Oxidation

Density functional theory and molecular dynamics simulations were used to assess the ability of tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP)M complexes (where M = Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Mo, Ru, W, and Os) to coordinate and weaken the N-H bonds of ammonia, as well as their reactivity towards N-N bond formation for N 2 generation. Compared to other metalloporphyrins, bis-ammonia complexes (TPP)Mo(NH 3 ) 2 and (TPP)W(NH 3 ) 2 exhibit low and level N-H BDFEs due to a stabilized (TPP)M(NH 3 )(NH) intermediate by multiple metal-ligand bonding. These results resemble those previously obtained for polypyridyl metal complexes, suggesting that broad trends in reactivity towards N-H bond cleavage are more metal-dependent rather than ligand-dependent for a metal in a nitrogen pseudo-octahedral environment. We investigated N-N bond formation via NH 3 nucleophilic attack on M-NH and M-N intermediates, compared to bimolecular coupling of M-NH x intermediates. We evaluated the reactivity of (TPP)Fe(NH 3 ) 2 towards N-N bond formation via a hydrazine pathway, and found amide-amide coupling to form a bridged hydrazido complex to be the most favorable pathway for N-N bond formation. Further investigation of possible N-N bond formation pathways by reaction with NH 3 led us to identify a possible Fe III -•NH species with significant aminyl character that bypasses the nucleophilic attack of NH 3 and that promotes homolytic N-H bond cleavage of ammonia. This reaction forms a Fe-NH 2 moiety and a transient •NH 2 radical that subsequently forms an N-N bond with the Fe-NH 2 moiety to form a (TPP)Fe(NH 3 )(N 2 H 4 ) species. Furthermore, these results indicate the need to evaluate the radical character of imido species and their reactivity towards N-H bond cleavage of ammonia.

Roles of Solvent in the Catalytic Hydrogen Release from Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carriers: Chemical, Thermodynamical and Technological Aspects

A Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carrier (LOHC) enables the storage and transport of hydrogen at ambient pressures and temperatures in a safe and convenient form using current infrastructure. However, it is challenging to directly compare reactivity and selectivity for hydrogen release, especially when comparing the catalytic efficiencies of neat LOHCs to highly diluted LOHCs in different solvents, reaction conditions, and catalysts. This work evaluates the role of solvents in catalysis and quantifies the energy efficiency of the overall process. The presence of solvent dilutes the volumetric density of available hydrogen, but may be necessary to achieve optimal catalysts stability, reactivity, and product selectivity. With respect to the reaction conditions as determined by thermodynamics, solvents with higher vapor pressures than that of the carrier can cause the erroneous impression of a more favorable reaction equilibrium. Concerning energy efficiency, solvents can result in increased energy demand for hydrogen release as the inert solvent must be heated to reaction temperatures required for release of H 2 from the LOHC. Further, this work recommends that investigations of catalyst reactivity should be carried out at different ratios of solvent to LOHC to understand how the reactivity changes and what the implications are for maximizing energy density and catalyst stability and reactivity. Investigations should also consider how these implications will affect the technical needs of applications intended for the LOHC system. Based on the results of this study, it is advised to focus research activities on LOHC systems with a gravimetric solvent content below about 50% as the thermodynamic disadvantages become very pronounced beyond this threshold.

Evaluation of dried blood spot sampling for verification of exposure to chemical threat agents

Abstract Purpose Exposure to chemical threat agents (CTAs), including nerve agents, the vesicating agent sulfur mustard, and opioids, remains a significant threat to warfighter and civilian populations. Definitive analytical methods to verify exposure to CTAs require shipping refrigerated or frozen biomedical samples to reference laboratories for analysis. Logistical and financial burdens arise as the transport of biomedical samples is subject to strict restrictions and complex packaging, which, if done incorrectly, can lead to sample deterioration. The use of dried blood spot (DBS) sampling could provide operational improvements for collecting, storing, and shipping important forensic samples. Therefore, this effort focuses on developing DBS techniques with Mitra® 30-µL volumetric absorptive microsampling (VAMS®) devices for use in CTA exposure verification. Methods VAMS® devices were loaded and dried with human whole blood that was exposed to the metabolites pinacolyl methylphosphonic acid (PMPA), ethyl methylphosphonic acid (EMPA), 1,1’sulfonylbis[2-(methylsulfinyl)ethane] (SBMSE), norfentanyl, norcarfentanil, norsufentanil, and norlofentanil. Following extraction from the VAMS® devices, metabolites were detected using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS). The methods were validated for performance by assessing sensitivity, precision, accuracy, and recovery. Results These methods were sensitive to 1 ng/mL for SBMSE, 0.5 ng/mL for PMPA, EMPA, and norfentanyl; 0.1 ng/mL for norlofentanil, and 0.05 ng/mL for norsufentanil and norcarfentanil. All methods met acceptable precision and accuracy criteria with favorable recovery. Conclusions These results demonstrated the utility of VAMS® in stabilizing human whole blood and show promise as an improved collection method for verification of exposure to various CTAs.

Digestion processes and elemental analysis of oxide and sulfide solid electrolytes

Detailed elemental analysis is essential for a successful development and optimization of material systems and synthesis methods. This is especially relevant for Li- and Na-containing compounds, found in state-of-the-art and next-generation battery systems. Their materials’ properties and thus the final device performance strongly depend on the crystal structure, the stoichiometry, and defect chemistry, e.g., influencing charge carrier concentration and activation energies for vacancy transport. However, a detailed quantitative analysis of light elements in a heavy matrix, featuring a broad range of solubilities and vapor pressures, is often difficult and associated with large uncertainties and thus neglected in favor of just reporting the stoichiometry as “weighed in.” Here, in this work, we report several approaches to digest and dissolve various oxide and sulfide-based materials, used in next-generation Li batteries, for elemental analysis via optical emission spectroscopy. These include the most common solid electrolytes Li-La-Ti–O, a perovskite material (LLTO), and Li-La-Zr-O which has garnet structure (LLZO). Additionally, a facile thermal digestion process is reported for a surrogate sulfide solid electrolyte (Na 2 S). The digestion procedures reported here are suitable for almost any laboratory environment and, when applied, will improve understanding of the synthesis-structure–property correlations needed to advanced batteries with all solid-state configurations.

Fatigue Performance of an Improved Creep Strength 10%Cr Steel

The deployment of 9-12% Cr steels for elevated temperature applications up to 650 °C presents a cost-effective alternative to more expensive nickel-based alloys in steam turbine power generation. To enhance creep resistance at this temperature range, a novel ferritic-martensitic steel, designated CPJ7, was developed and fabricated at the National Energy Technology Laboratory. The alloy design aimed to mitigate the transformation of strengthening carbides into deleterious phases that degrade creep performance. Results have demonstrated that CPJ7 exhibits favorable creep and oxidation resistance at 650 °C. However, its fatigue performance remains unexplored. This study builds upon prior research by evaluating the low cycle fatigue behavior of CPJ7 and verifying that modifications beneficial to creep performance were not detrimental to the fatigue performance. The alloy was tested at both 650 °C and ambient temperature under fully reversed bending conditions (R = − 1) and a load ratio of 0.05. Furthermore, the alloy exhibits cyclic softening, a behavior consistent with other 9-10 wt.% Cr steels. Analysis of the microstructure and hysteresis loops further corroborate cyclic softening mechanisms typical of ferritic-martensitic steels. Overall, the fatigue performance of CPJ7 meets or exceeds that of P91 steel, demonstrating its potential for high-temperature structural applications.

Pitting Corrosion in 316L Stainless Steel Fabricated by Laser Powder Bed Fusion Additive Manufacturing: A Review and Perspective

Abstract 316L stainless steel (316L SS) is a flagship material for structural applications in corrosive environments, having been extensively studied for decades for its favorable balance between mechanical and corrosion properties. More recently, 316L SS has also proven to have excellent printability when parts are produced with additive manufacturing techniques, notably laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). Because of the harsh thermo-mechanical cycles experienced during rapid solidification and cooling, LPBF processing tends to generate unique microstructures. Strong heterogeneities can be found inside grains, including trapped elements, nano-inclusions, and a high density of dislocations that form the so-called cellular structure. Interestingly, LPBF 316L SS not only exhibits better mechanical properties than its conventionally processed counterpart, but it also usually offers much higher resistance to pitting in chloride solutions. Unfortunately, the complexity of the LPBF microstructures, in addition to process-induced defects, such as porosity and surface roughness, have slowed progress toward linking specific microstructural features to corrosion susceptibility and complicated the development of calibrated simulations of pitting phenomena. The first part of this article is dedicated to an in-depth review of the microstructures found in LPBF 316L SS and their potential effects on the corrosion properties, with an emphasis on pitting resistance. The second part offers a perspective of some relevant modeling techniques available to simulate the corrosion of LPBF 316L SS, including current challenges that should be overcome.

Development of Aluminum Scandium Nitride Molecular Dynamics Force Fields with Scalable Multi-Objective Bayesian Optimization

Scandium (Sc)-doped aluminum nitride (AlN) exhibits improved piezoelectric properties, which is favorable for sensor applications. Although many experimental studies exist to fine tune the material properties for design purposes, an atomistic level understanding of the structure-property (S-P) relationships is needed, which is the aim of this work. Molecular dynamics can be used to understand the S-P relationships. However, the limited availability of suitable force fields has been a major challenge for accurate property predictions. In this article, a robust force field calibration method using a scalable multi-objective Bayesian optimization approach is presented. Optimizations with three, six, and eight objectives are applied to calibrate aluminum scandium nitride force fields based on the piezoelectric characteristics, modulus of elasticity, and lattice parameters at different Sc-doped levels. Furthermore, the performances of the different force fields are compared, and the performance of the higher dimensional objective problems is discussed. The highly scalable molecular dynamics force field development method is successfully implemented, resulting in the creation of several aluminum scandium nitride molecular dynamics force fields for piezoelectric applications at varying Sc dope levels.

The Addition of Boron to Melt-Spun Fe-6.5%Si Ribbons

Fe-6.5%Si has higher electrical resistivity, lower magnetocrystalline anisotropy, and lower magnetostriction than traditional Fe-3.2%Si silicon steel. The reduced iron losses of Fe-6.5%Si render it a highly favorable candidate for high-speed motors and transformers. However, large-scale production of wide Fe-6.5%Si tape by rapid solidification can be challenging mainly because of its high melting point. In this work, boron is alloyed to Fe-6.5%Si to reduce its melting temperature and interfacial energy to improve the alloy’s processability. Boron additions from 0.01 wt.% to 2.24 wt.% into Fe-6.5%Si and its effect on ribbon thickness, grain size, magnetic, and mechanical properties were studied. Further, minor boron alloying significantly changed the melt pool stability and wetting on the quench wheel and in turn increased the quench rate with minimum impact on the magnetic saturation and ductility. Boron addition of < 0.06 wt.% was also found beneficial to the magnetic property of the alloy by lowering both its hysteresis and eddy current losses.

Review of Solid State Consolidation Processing Techniques of ODS Steels (Hot Extrusion, Hot Isostatic Pressing, Spark Plasma Sintering, and Stir Friction Consolidation): Resulting Microstructures and Mechanical Properties

This paper reviews the solid-state consolidation processing techniques for Oxide Dispersion Strengthened steels and compares them in terms of the resulting microstructure and reported mechanical properties. Synthesis techniques include hot extrusion, hot isostatic pressing, spark plasma sintering and friction consolidation. The effects of process parameters on the resulting microstructures and performance are discussed for each technique. Average oxide size, average grain size, and porosity are compared across techniques, as well as mechanical strength and ductility. Across consolidation techniques where temperature can be controlled, a low sintering temperature with a high sintering pressure is favorable for keeping oxide sizes, grain sizes, and porosity low. The use of yttrium and titanium for oxide formation has been evidenced to reduce oxide sizes, and tungsten additions have been shown to improve strength. Current literature suggests that the more mature hot extrusion technique produces stronger steel with consistently fine oxides, while other alternative solid-state consolidation, while promising, offer margin for improvement.

Towards an Understanding of Oxidative Damage in an a-L-Arabinofuranosidase of Trichoderma reesei : a Molecular Dynamics Approach

Trichoderma reesei is a ‘workhorse’ fungus that produces glycosyl hydrolases (e.g., cellulases) at high titers for use in industrial bioprocessing. In this study, we focused on two side-chain hemicellulases, a-L-arabinofuranosidases and a-D-galactosidases, which are important for the treatment of lignocellulosic biomass, but susceptible to oxidative damage that can occur during industrial processing. The molecular details that render these enzymes inactive have not yet been identified. To approach this issue, we used proteomics to identify amino acid residues that were oxidized after a relevant oxidative treatment (Fenton reaction). These oxidative modifications were included in the 3D-protein structures, and using molecular dynamics simulations, we then studied the behaviors of non-modified and oxidized enzymes. These simulations showed significant alterations of the conformational stability of proteins when oxidized, as evidenced by changes in root mean square deviation (RMSD) and principal component analyses (PCA) trajectories. Likewise, enzyme-ligand interactions such as hydrogen bonds were greatly reduced in quantity and quality in the oxidized proteins. Finally, free energy landscape plots showed that there was a more rugged energy surface in the oxidized proteins, implying a less favorable reaction pathway. These results reveal the basis for loss of function in these carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZYs) in T. reesei.

A novel battery scheme: Coupling nanostructured phosphorus anodes with lithium sulfide cathodes

Lithium-ion batteries are approaching their theoretical limit and can no longer keep up with the increasing demands of human society. Lithium-sulfur batteries, with a high theoretical specific energy, are promising candidates for next generation energy storage. However, the use of Li metal in Li-S batteries compromises both safety and performance, enabling dendrite formation and causing fast capacity degradation. Previous studies have probed alternative battery systems to replace the metallic Li in Li-S system, such as a Si/Li2S couple, with limited success in performance. Recently, there is a focus on red P as a favorable anode material to host Li. In this work, we establish a novel battery scheme by utilizing a P/C nanocomposite anode and pairing it with a Li 2 S coated carbon nanofiber cathode. We find that red P anode can be compatible in ether-based electrolyte systems and can be successfully coupled to a Li 2 S cathode. Our proof of concept full-cell displays remarkable specific capacity, rate and cycling performances. We expect our work will provide a useful alternative system and valuable insight in the quest for next generation energy storage devices.

Uncertainties in estimating global potential yields and their impacts for long-term modeling

Estimating realistic potential yields by crop type and region is challenging; such yields depend on both biophysical characteristics (e.g., soil characteristics, climate, etc.), and the crop management practices available in any site or region (e.g., mechanization, irrigation, crop cultivars). A broad body of literature has assessed potential yields for selected crops and regions, using several strategies. In this study we first analyze future potential yields of major crop types globally by two different estimation methods, one of which is based on historical observed yields (“Empirical”), while the other is based on biophysical conditions (“Simulated”). Potential yields by major crop and region are quite different between the two methods; in particular, Simulated potential yields are typically 200% higher than Empirical potential yields in tropical regions for major crops. Applying both of these potential yields in yield gap closure scenarios in a global agro-economic model, GCAM, the two estimates of future potential yields lead to very different outcomes for the agricultural sector globally. In the Simulated potential yield closure scenario, Africa, Asia, and South America see comparatively favorable outcomes for agricultural sustainability over time: low land use change emissions, low crop prices, and high levels of self-sufficiency. In contrast, the Empirical potential yield scenario is characterized by a heavy reliance on production and exports in temperate regions that currently practice industrial agriculture. At the global level, this scenario has comparatively high crop commodity prices, and more land allocated to crop production (and associated land use change emissions) than either the baseline or Simulated potential yield scenarios. This study highlights the importance of the choice of methods of estimating potential yields for agro-economic modeling.
