The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, a major migratory barrier located in higher latitude Central Asia, exerts a substantial influence on avian migration patterns. Species traversing such ecological barriers may adopt multiple optimal routes, which can contribute to the formation of migratory divides. From 2018 to 2021, the migration routes of 13 adult Common Cuckoos (Cuculus canorus) breeding in the north of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau were tracked using satellite transmitters. We found Common Cuckoos have two primary migration routes: western and eastern, respectively following western and eastern edges of the Qinghai-Tibet plateau. The eastern and western routes are likely the optimal routes for the Central Asian Common Cuckoos population to navigate the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Furthermore, two individuals exhibited intermediate migration routes, suggesting attempted traverses of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, although neither completed the migration. These intermediate routes may indicate migratory behavior influenced by hybridization between eastern and western populations or migratory flexibility. Common Cuckoos exhibit significantly faster migration speed, flight speed, and shorter stopover durations during spring compared to autumn. The observed seasonal differences in migration behavior support birds following time-minimization strategies during spring migration. These results revealed the diverse migration routes of Common Cuckoos shaped by the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and seasonal variation in migration patterns.展开更多

文摘Ecological barriers present significant challenges to bird migration by limiting the availability of stopover sites and shelters. The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, a major migratory barrier located in higher latitude Central Asia, exerts a substantial influence on avian migration patterns. Species traversing such ecological barriers may adopt multiple optimal routes, which can contribute to the formation of migratory divides. From 2018 to 2021, the migration routes of 13 adult Common Cuckoos (Cuculus canorus) breeding in the north of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau were tracked using satellite transmitters. We found Common Cuckoos have two primary migration routes: western and eastern, respectively following western and eastern edges of the Qinghai-Tibet plateau. The eastern and western routes are likely the optimal routes for the Central Asian Common Cuckoos population to navigate the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Furthermore, two individuals exhibited intermediate migration routes, suggesting attempted traverses of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, although neither completed the migration. These intermediate routes may indicate migratory behavior influenced by hybridization between eastern and western populations or migratory flexibility. Common Cuckoos exhibit significantly faster migration speed, flight speed, and shorter stopover durations during spring compared to autumn. The observed seasonal differences in migration behavior support birds following time-minimization strategies during spring migration. These results revealed the diverse migration routes of Common Cuckoos shaped by the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and seasonal variation in migration patterns.

文摘This paper aims to elucidate the seismic characteristics of the Three Gorges Reservoir area after impoundment and investigate the seismic source migration.Based on the seismic data analysis from the Badong segment in the Three Gorges Reservoir area,we assessed the local temporal and spatial variations in the frequent earthquakes.Correlation analysis was conducted to investigate the relationship between changes in reservoir water levels and the occurrence of reservoir-induced earthquakes.Additionally,we examined the regularity of earthquake occurrences at the exact location during different periods.Based on the fault mechanics principles,a formula was derived to estimate the length of open and wing-shaped rupture at the hypocenter under the influence of pore or excess pore water pressure.The results reveal that reservoir-induced seismicity demonstrates short-term cycles characterized by alternating"active periods"and"quiet periods,"as well as long-term cycles with the combined periods.The probability of earthquakes occurring within one year at the epicentre is relatively high and decreases after four years.The derived formula can be utilized to estimate the seismic migration distance at the epicentre in the short term.These research findings provide valuable insights for analyzing the regularity of reservoir-induced earthquake activities and understanding the mechanism of seismic source migration.
文摘Understanding migratory waterfowl spatiotemporal distributions is important because,in addition to their economic and cultural value,wild waterfowl can be infectious reservoirs of highly pathogenic avian influenza virus(HPAIV).Waterfowl migration has been implicated in regional and intercontinental HPAIV dispersal,and predictive capabilities of where and when HPAIV may be introduced to susceptible spillover hosts would facilitate biosecurity and mitigation efforts.To develop forecasts for HPAIV dispersal,an improved understanding of how individual birds interact with their environment and move on a landscape scale is required.Using an agent-based modeling approach,we integrated individual-scale energetics,species-specific morphology and behavior,and landscape-scale weather and habitat data in a mechanistic stochastic framework to simulate Mallard(Anas platyrhynchos)and Northern Pintail(Anas acuta)annual migration across the Northern Hemisphere.Our model recreated biologically realistic migratory patterns using a first principles approach to waterfowl ecology,behavior,and physiology.Conducting a limited structural sensitivity analysis comparing reduced models to eBird Status and Trends in reference to the full model,we identified density dependence as the main factor influencing spring migration and breeding distributions,and wind as the main factor influencing fall migration and overwintering distributions.We show evidence of weather patterns in Northeast Asia causing significant intercontinental pintail migration to North America.By linking individual energetics to landscapescale processes,we identify key drivers of waterfowl migration while developing a predictive model responsive to daily weather patterns.This model paves the way for future waterfowl migration research predicting HPAIV transmission,climate change impacts,and oil spill effects.
文摘The migratory nature of avian species is well known not only to researchers but also to the general public,becoming engrained in cultural traditions and even children's fairy tales.However,our understanding of these charismatic behaviors made great strides in the 1990s with the advent of small,light-weighted satellite transmitters capable of longterm tracking(Argos,2016).The emergence of this new technology made it possible to track a broader range of species at higher resolution than ever before.In turn,this data enabled detailed understanding of individual avian behavior and habitats,including transboundary migration routes.

文摘Migratory insect pests tend to suddenly immigrate into new habitats over a short period to simultaneously lay eggs in clusters,resulting in gregarious larvae that cause severe damage to crops.These aggregated larvae can adapt well to various natural enemies and pathogens in their new habitats,but how their resistance might be enhanced and its immunological significance remain unknown.Here,we examined how infection by a pathogen and a parasitic fly affect the immune response and migratory behavior in two phases of the oriental armyworm,Mythimna separata,which differ dramatically in their flight capacity and fecundity.The gregarious larvae displayed greater resistance than solitary larvae to the challenges of both the entomopathogenic fungus Metarhizium anisopliae and the parasitoid Exorista civilis.In response to a challenge by M.anisopliae,gregarious larvae exhibited more pronounced increases in phenoloxidase(PO)activity and lysozyme activity than solitary larvae.Furthermore,in addition to the greater PO and lysozyme activities,the levels of dopamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)were also greater in challenged gregarious and solitary larvae.Injection of dopamine(or 5-HT)significantly enhanced PO activity,lysozyme activity,antibacterial activity and larval survival.Subsequently,there was a significant increase in the flight capacity of adults derived from gregarious larvae challenged by M.anisopliae;while no significant variation was observed in the adults from challenged solitary larvae.The preoviposition period,oviposition period and fecundity were not significantly affected by M.anisopliae,regardless of whether the larvae were gregarious or solitary.These results provide new insights into the relationship between migration and immunity in insects,and their behavior after immunization.

文摘The gas-liquid countercurrent flow pattern is complex and the bubble migration velocity is difficult to predict in the process of bullheading well killing.The experiment on bubble migration in gas-liquid countercurrent flow in annulus is carried out under different working conditions to reveal how the wellbore inclination angle,liquid phase property and countercurrent liquid velocity affect the bubble deformation and bubble migration trajectory/velocity,and to establish a bubble migration velocity prediction model.The bubbles in the countercurrent flow mainly migrate in two modes:free rising of isolated bubbles,and interactive rising of multiple bubbles.The bubbles migrate by an S-shaped trajectory in the countercurrent flow.With the increase of countercurrent liquid velocity,the lateral oscillation of bubbles is intensified.The increases of wellbore inclination angle,liquid density and liquid viscosity make the bubble migration trajectory gradually to be linear.The bubble is generally ellipsoidal during its rising.The wellbore inclination angle has little effect on the degree of bubble deformation.The bubbles are ellipsoidal during rising,with little influence of wellbore inclination angle on bubble deformation.With the increase of liquid viscosity and density,the aspect ratio of the bubble decreases.As the wellbore inclination angle increases,the bubble migration velocity gradually decreases.As the liquid viscosity increases,the bubble migration velocity decreases.As the liquid density increases,the bubble migration velocity increases slightly.The established bubble migration velocity prediction model yields errors within±15%,and demonstrates broad applicability across a wide range of operating conditions.

文摘The migration/transformation characteristics of heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons(PAHs) during the co-liquefaction of pig manure and rice straw/wood sawdust were explored in this study.More than 87% of the heavy metals in feedstocks were enriched in hydrochars.The decreased proportion of active heavy metals in the hydrochars suggested partial passivation of the heavy metals.The pollution degree and risk of heavy metals were significantly mitigated from high and considerable levels in pig manure to moderate and low levels in hydrochar,respectively.Compared with commercial diesel,bio-oil products still contained an undesirable amount of heavy metals.PAHs were re-synthesized during liquefaction,with a net synthesis amount of 29.65-73.98 mg·kg^(-1).Moreover,the PAHs mainly existed in bio-oils,with a content of 57.32-132.33 mg·kg^(-1) and a toxicity equivalent of3.25-8.19 mg·kg^(-1).Compared to pig manure,the hydrochars presented a lower content of PAHs(1.76-3.53 mg·kg^(-1) versus 3.73 mg·kg^(-1)) and a smaller toxicity equivalent(0.14-0.22 mg·kg^(-1) versus0.26 mg·kg^(-1)).Interestingly,introducing lignocellulose(especially for rice straw) during the liquefaction of pig manure further mitigated the pollution degree/risk of heavy metals and PAHs.Overall,hydrochar reached a safe utilization level,while bio-oil products needed further clarification.

文摘Adult neurogenesis continuously produces new neurons critical for cognitive plasticity in adult rodents.While it is known transforming growth factor-βsignaling is important in embryonic neurogenesis,its role in postnatal neurogenesis remains unclear.In this study,to define the precise role of transforming growth factor-βsignaling in postnatal neurogenesis at distinct stages of the neurogenic cascade both in vitro and in vivo,we developed two novel inducible and cell type-specific mouse models to specifically silence transforming growth factor-βsignaling in neural stem cells in(mGFAPcre-ALK5fl/fl-Ai9)or immature neuroblasts in(DCXcreERT2-ALK5fl/fl-Ai9).Our data showed that exogenous transforming growth factor-βtreatment led to inhibition of the proliferation of primary neural stem cells while stimulating their migration.These effects were abolished in activin-like kinase 5(ALK5)knockout primary neural stem cells.Consistent with this,inhibition of transforming growth factor-βsignaling with SB-431542 in wild-type neural stem cells stimulated proliferation while inhibited the migration of neural stem cells.Interestingly,deletion of transforming growth factor-βreceptor in neural stem cells in vivo inhibited the migration of postnatal born neurons in mGFAPcre-ALK5fl/fl-Ai9 mice,while abolishment of transforming growth factor-βsignaling in immature neuroblasts in DCXcreERT2-ALK5fl/fl-Ai9 mice did not affect the migration of these cells in the hippocampus.In summary,our data supports a dual role of transforming growth factor-βsignaling in the proliferation and migration of neural stem cells in vitro.Moreover,our data provides novel insights on cell type-specific-dependent requirements of transforming growth factor-βsignaling on neural stem cell proliferation and migration in vivo.

文摘Research on the distribution and development of black shales in the Lianggaoshan Formation has been deficient,which has hindered exploration for lacustrine shale oil in the Sichuan Basin.Our study characterized the well logging data,core samples,outcrops,and geochemistry of black shales in the Lianggaoshan Formation in the Sichuan Basin.Our analysis focused on the lake basin evolution and the migration characteristics,paleoenvironmental features,formation mechanisms,and developmental model of the black shales.The results indicated that black shales in the Lianggaoshan Formation exhibited significant lateral migration,with an overall thickening trend from east to west.Within the 1st Member of the formation,black shale occurred as a single thick layer in the eastern region that gradually thinned toward the central region.Multiple sets of shale developed within the 2nd and 3rd members,and these had lower thicknesses than the 1st Member and migrated toward central Sichuan.Paleoproductivity and terrigenous input were the main factors controlling the deposition of black shales.A semi-humid climate influenced the deposition of black shales,bringing abundant freshwater,terrigenous debris,and nutrients into the basin.Decomposition of organic matter consumed oxygen in sediment and bottom water,causing localized oxygen deficiency in the strata.
文摘BACKGROUND Esophagojejunal anastomotic leakage(EJAL)is a severe complication following gastrectomy for gastric cancer,typically treated with drainage and nutritional support.We report a case of intraluminal drain migration near the esophagojejunal anastomosis(EJA),resulting in persistent drainage and mimicking EJAL after total gastrectomy.CASE SUMMARY A 64-year-old male underwent open total gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y reconstruction for gastric adenocarcinoma,with two silicone drains placed near the EJA.On postoperative day(POD)4,the patient developed signs of peritonitis and sepsis,necessitating surgical re-exploration abscess drainage,peritoneal lavage,and drain repositioning.A contrast swallow study on POD 18 revealed rapid filling of the abdominal drain without extraluminal contrast collection.Persistent drainage prompted an upper gastrointestinal endoscopy on POD 59,which revealed approximately 5 cm of the drain within the esophagus,with the perforation site located 2 cm distal to the intact EJA.The drain was repositioned under endoscopic guidance.A repeat contrast radiograph on POD 67 demonstrated no evidence of extraluminal contrast extravasation or filling of the abdominal drain.The patient was subsequently discharged without further incident.CONCLUSION Intraluminal drain migration is a rare complication following gastric surgery but should be considered when persistent drainage occurs.
