- The Global Consortium for the Classification of Fungi and fungus-like taxa is an international initiative of more than 550 mycologists to develop an electronic structure for the classification of these organisms. The members of the Consortium originate from 55 countries/regions worldwide, from a wide range of disciplines, and include senior, mid-career and early-career mycologists and plant pathologists. The Consortium will publish a biannual update of the Outline of Fungi and fungus-like taxa, to act as an international scheme for other scientists. Notes on all newly published taxa at or above the level of species will be prepared and published online on the Outline of Fungi website (https://www.outlineoffungi.org/), and these will be finally published in the biannual edition of the Outline of Fungi and fungus-like taxa. Comments on recent important taxonomic opinions on controversial topics will be included in the biannual outline. For example, 'to promote a more stable taxonomy in Fusarium given the divergences over its generic delimitation', or 'are there too many genera in the Boletales?' and even more importantly, 'what should be done with the tremendously diverse 'dark fungal taxa?' There are undeniable differences in mycologists' perceptions and opinions regarding species classification as well as the establishment of new species. Given the pluralistic nature of fungal taxonomy and its implications for species concepts and the nature of species, this consortium aims to provide a platform to better refine and stabilise fungal classification, taking into consideration views from different parties. In the future, a confidential voting system will be set up to gauge the opinions of all mycologists in the Consortium on important topics. The results of such surveys will be presented to the International Commission on the Taxonomy of Fungi (ICTF) and the Nomenclature Committee for Fungi (NCF) with opinions and percentages of votes for and against. Criticisms based on scientific evidence with regards to nomenclature, classifications, and taxonomic concepts will be welcomed, and any recommendations on specific taxonomic issues will also be encouraged; however, we will encourage professionally and ethically responsible criticisms of others' work. This biannual ongoing project will provide an outlet for advances in various topics of fungal classification, nomenclature, and taxonomic concepts and lead to a community-agreed classification scheme for the fungi and fungus-like taxa. Interested parties should contact the lead author if they would like to be involved in future outlines.

- The role of whistler-mode waves in the solar wind and the relationship between their electromagnetic fields and charged particles is a fundamental question in space physics. Using high-temporal-resolution electromagnetic field and plasma data from the Magnetospheric MultiScale spacecraft, we report observations of low-frequency whistler waves and associated electromagnetic fields and particle behavior in the Earth's foreshock. The frequency of these whistler waves is close to half the lower-hybrid frequency (similar to 2 Hz), with their wavelength close to the ion gyroradius. The electron bulk flows are strongly modulated by these waves, with a modulation amplitude comparable to the solar wind velocity. At such a spatial scale, the electron flows are forcibly separated from the ion flows by the waves, resulting in strong electric currents and anisotropic ion distributions. Furthermore, we find that the low-frequency whistler wave propagates obliquely to the background magnetic field ( B (0)), and results in spatially periodic magnetic gradients in the direction parallel to B (0). Under such conditions, large pitch-angle electrons are trapped in wave magnetic valleys by the magnetic mirror force, and may provide free perpendicular electron energy to excite higher-frequency whistler waves. This study offers important clues and new insights into wave-particle interactions, wave generation, and microscale energy conversion processes in the solar wind.

- Three novel push-pull dyes, with carbazole donors, codedAJ502,TZ101andTZ102are synthesized and applied as co-sensitizers in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs).TZ101andTZ102have similar structures except for two fluorine atoms introduced on the benzotriazole (BTZ) unit.AJ502shows a near-IR absorption spectrum that is suitable for co-sensitization withTZ101andTZ102. The co-sensitized DSSC device based onCO-1(AJ502 : TZ101= 3 : 4 (0.075 mM : 0.1 mM)) achieves a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 10.3% under AM 1.5G irradiation, with 1.06 V open-circuit voltage (Voc), 13.75 mA cm−2short-circuit photocurrent density (Jsc), and 70.8% fill factor (FF), a significant improvement compared to the single dye, 6.0% forAJ502and 5.1% forTZ101with a copper(i/ii)-based redox electrolyte. A PCE of 8.9% is also obtained by devices based onCO-2(AJ502 : TZ102= 3 : 4). ForCO-1, the fluorine atoms inTZ101play a critical role by widening the active light capturing bands of bothTZ101andAJ502on the TiO2film whileTZ102andAJ502show weaker interaction under the same conditions. The UV-vis spectrum and Raman spectrum revealed thatAJ502can form supramolecules withTZ101andTZ102formed on the TiO2film.

- Genome-wide association studies have discovered hundreds of loci associated with complex brain disorders, but it remains unclear in which cell types these loci are active. Here we integrate genome-wide association study results with single-cell transcriptomic data from the entire mouse nervous system to systematically identify cell types underlying brain complex traits. We show that psychiatric disorders are predominantly associated with projecting excitatory and inhibitory neurons. Neurological diseases were associated with different cell types, which is consistent with other lines of evidence. Notably, Parkinson’s disease was genetically associated not only with cholinergic and monoaminergic neurons (which include dopaminergic neurons) but also with enteric neurons and oligodendrocytes. Using post-mortem brain transcriptomic data, we confirmed alterations in these cells, even at the earliest stages of disease progression. Our study provides an important framework for understanding the cellular basis of complex brain maladies, and reveals an unexpected role of oligodendrocytes in Parkinson’s disease. © 2020, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature America, Inc.

- Grain refinement increases yield strength, but usually at the cost of ductility reduction. In the present work, we explored the strategy of grain refinement and composition tuning in CoCrNi alloys to optimize mechanical properties. Grain refinement was found to strongly suppress deformation-induced martensitic transformation in metastable CoCrNi alloys, which was utilized to modulate the transformation-induced plasticity (TRIP) effect in combination with composition tuning guided by theoretical calculations. We demonstrated in a non-equiatomic CoCrNi TRIP medium-entropy alloy (MEA) that our approach resulted in an excellent combination of strength and ductility. The proposed strategy is expected to be useful in exploring superior mechanical properties of MEAs and high-entropy alloys in varying systems.

Cold-Season Methane Fluxes Simulated by GCP-CH4 Models

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Cold-season methane (CH4) emissions may be poorly constrained in wetland models. We examined cold-season CH4 emissions simulated by 16 models participating in the Global Carbon Project model intercomparison and analyzed temporal and spatial patterns in simulation results using prescribed inundation data for 2000–2020. Estimated annual CH4 emissions from northern (>60°N) wetlands averaged 10.0 ± 5.5 Tg CH4 yr−1. While summer CH4 emissions were well simulated compared to in-situ flux measurement observations, the models underestimated CH4 during September to May relative to annual total (27 ± 9%, compared to 45% in observations) and substantially in the months with subzero air temperatures (5 ± 5%, compared to 27% in observations). Because of winter warming, nevertheless, the contribution of cold-season emissions was simulated to increase at 0.4 ± 0.8% decade−1. Different parameterizations of processes, for example, freezing–thawing and snow insulation, caused conspicuous variability among models, implying the necessity of model refinement.
