  • CMB-S4 : Forecasting Constraints on Primordial Gravitational Waves
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: Astrophysical Journal. - : American Astronomical Society. - 0004-637X .- 1538-4357. ; 926:1
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • CMB-S4—the next-generation ground-based cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiment—is set to significantly advance the sensitivity of CMB measurements and enhance our understanding of the origin and evolution of the universe. Among the science cases pursued with CMB-S4, the quest for detecting primordial gravitational waves is a central driver of the experimental design. This work details the development of a forecasting framework that includes a power-spectrum-based semianalytic projection tool, targeted explicitly toward optimizing constraints on the tensor-to-scalar ratio, r, in the presence of Galactic foregrounds and gravitational lensing of the CMB. This framework is unique in its direct use of information from the achieved performance of current Stage 2–3 CMB experiments to robustly forecast the science reach of upcoming CMB-polarization endeavors. The methodology allows for rapid iteration over experimental configurations and offers a flexible way to optimize the design of future experiments, given a desired scientific goal. To form a closed-loop process, we couple this semianalytic tool with map-based validation studies, which allow for the injection of additional complexity and verification of our forecasts with several independent analysis methods. We document multiple rounds of forecasts for CMB-S4 using this process and the resulting establishment of the current reference design of the primordial gravitational-wave component of the Stage-4 experiment, optimized to achieve our science goals of detecting primordial gravitational waves for r > 0.003 at greater than 5σ, or in the absence of a detection, of reaching an upper limit of r < 0.001 at 95% CL.

  • Global fine-resolution data on springtail abundance and community structure
  • 2024
  • Ingår i: Scientific Data. - : Nature Publishing Group. - 2052-4463. ; 11:1
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Springtails (Collembola) inhabit soils from the Arctic to the Antarctic and comprise an estimated ~32% of all terrestrial arthropods on Earth. Here, we present a global, spatially-explicit database on springtail communities that includes 249,912 occurrences from 44,999 samples and 2,990 sites. These data are mainly raw sample-level records at the species level collected predominantly from private archives of the authors that were quality-controlled and taxonomically-standardised. Despite covering all continents, most of the sample-level data come from the European continent (82.5% of all samples) and represent four habitats: woodlands (57.4%), grasslands (14.0%), agrosystems (13.7%) and scrublands (9.0%). We included sampling by soil layers, and across seasons and years, representing temporal and spatial within-site variation in springtail communities. We also provided data use and sharing guidelines and R code to facilitate the use of the database by other researchers. This data paper describes a static version of the database at the publication date, but the database will be further expanded to include underrepresented regions and linked with trait data.

  • Globally invariant metabolism but density-diversity mismatch in springtails
  • 2023
  • Ingår i: Nature Communications. - : Springer Nature. - 2041-1723. ; 14:1
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Soil life supports the functioning and biodiversity of terrestrial ecosystems. Springtails (Collembola) are among the most abundant soil arthropods regulating soil fertility and flow of energy through above- and belowground food webs. However, the global distribution of springtail diversity and density, and how these relate to energy fluxes remains unknown. Here, using a global dataset representing 2470 sites, we estimate the total soil springtail biomass at 27.5 megatons carbon, which is threefold higher than wild terrestrial vertebrates, and record peak densities up to 2 million individuals per square meter in the tundra. Despite a 20-fold biomass difference between the tundra and the tropics, springtail energy use (community metabolism) remains similar across the latitudinal gradient, owing to the changes in temperature with latitude. Neither springtail density nor community metabolism is predicted by local species richness, which is high in the tropics, but comparably high in some temperate forests and even tundra. Changes in springtail activity may emerge from latitudinal gradients in temperature, predation and resource limitation in soil communities. Contrasting relationships of biomass, diversity and activity of springtail communities with temperature suggest that climate warming will alter fundamental soil biodiversity metrics in different directions, potentially restructuring terrestrial food webs and affecting soil functioning.

  • The Silence Speaks, but We Do Not Listen: Synonymous c.1824C>T Gene Variant in the Last Exon of the Prothrombin Gene as a New Prothrombotic Risk Factor
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: Clinical chemistry. - : Oxford University Press (OUP). - 1530-8561 .- 0009-9147. ; 66:2, s. 379-389
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BackgroundThrombosis is a major global disease burden with almost 60% of cases related to underlying heredity and most cases still idiopathic. Synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (sSNPs) are considered silent and phenotypically neutral. Our previous study revealed a novel synonymous FII c.1824C&gt;T variant as a potential risk factor for pregnancy loss, but it has not yet been associated with thrombotic diseases.MethodsTo determine the frequency of the FII c.1824C&gt;T variant we have sequenced patients’ DNA. Prothrombin RNA expression was measured by quantitative PCR. Functional analyses included routine hemostasis tests, western blotting and ELISA to determine prothrombin levels in plasma, and global hemostasis assays for thrombin and fibrin generation in carriers of the FII c.1824C&gt;T variant. Scanning electron microscopy was used to examine the structure of fibrin clots.ResultsFrequency of the FII c.1824C&gt;T variant was significantly increased in patients with venous thromboembolism and cerebrovascular insult. Examination in vitro demonstrated increased expression of prothrombin mRNA in FII c.1824T transfected cells. Our ex vivo study of FII c.1824C&gt;T carriers showed that the presence of this variant was associated with hyperprothrombinemia, hypofibrinolysis, and formation of densely packed fibrin clots resistant to fibrinolysis.ConclusionOur data indicate that FII c.1824C&gt;T, although a synonymous variant, leads to the development of a prothrombotic phenotype and could represent a new prothrombotic risk factor. As a silent variant, FII c.1824C&gt;T would probably be overlooked during genetic screening, and our results show that it could not be detected in routine laboratory tests.
