Description: To study the changes in mineral dust from the LGM to mid-Holocene, we have analyzed the Dome Fuji deep ice-core using a Continuous Flow Analysis (CFA) system. We measured microparticles, eight elements (Na, Mg, Al, Si, K, Ca, Fe and S), stable isotopes of water, black carbon and methane for the depth interval between 200 and 640 m. In addition to the CFA measurements, we collected discrete samples continuously at a 50 cm interval, and analyzed concentrations and size distributions using a Coulter Multisizer 4. We could detect small changes in concentrations even during the Holocene when concentrations were low. The dust flux at Dome Fuji around the LGM was higher than that at Dome C (EDC) and lower than that at EDML, which reflects their distances from the major dust sources in South America. Dust size changes from the LGM to the Holocene at inland sites in East Antarctica have been reported to show regional differences. At Dome Fuji, the dust size increased from the LGM to the Holocene, which is similar to EDC and EDML, but opposite to Dome B. By 16ka BP, the dust flux at Dome Fuji had decreased to the Holocene level, as at other Antarctic deep core sites. Before that time, the dust size was almost constant, independent of dust concentrations, while after that time, dust size increased with dust concentration. Furthermore, the element compositions changed at that time. These results suggest that dust sources and/or transport pathways changed around 16ka BP.

Description: Monitoring ocean and atmospheric conditions on the sea surface is indispensable for understanding atmosphere-ocean interaction, but there is now a significant spatio-temporal gap in the observing system. These days, biologging, which is a method to measure animals’ movement or their environment by attaching a small data logger to their body, has been attracting as a new way of meteorological observation to fill the gap. In particular, a revolutionary method, in which we can simultaneously estimate the bird’s orientation and their environmental wind from their flight paths, was proposed. In this research, we used ocean surface winds in the summer of 2018 estimated by this method using GPS positional data of streaked shearwaters which build a nest in Awashima island, Japan. We conducted an Observing System Experiment (OSE) , running analysis-forecast cycles with and without the bird-wind data (named BIRD and CTRL, respectively) and examined those observation impacts. The regional reanalysis system we used is NHM-LETKF, which combined JMA’s non-hydrostatic model (NHM) with the local ensemble transform Kalman filter (LETKF) as the data assimilation method. We compared the surface wind spread of BIRD with that of CTRL averaged in the calculation period. Bird observation points were distributed along the coast from Japan-Sea to southern Hokkaido, and these observation impacts propagated to the northern part of Japan-Sea and the western pacific. Also, three typhoons passed on and around Japan during this period, and these central pressures or courses differed from BIRD to CTRL. We will discuss the observation impacts on these typhoons.

Description: Existing research indicates that to create geothermal reservoirs using CO2 injection, additional stimulation methods are necessary. N, N-bis(carboxymethyl)-L-glutamic acid (GLDA) injection has been predicted to increase the permeability of CO2 injection-induced cloud-fracture networks (CFNs) and could serve as an additional stimulation method. Nevertheless, the influence of differential stress, flow geometry, and scale on the characteristics of permeability enhancement by GLDA injection is yet to be clarified. Accordingly, this study experimentally elucidated the permeability enhancement characteristics of injecting a chelating agent in fractured granite under differential stress conditions as an additional method for creating geothermal reservoirs using CO2 injection. GLDA injection experiments were conducted on fractured-granite samples under conventional- and true-triaxial stress states under varying differential stress and pH conditions. Regardless of the differential stress and pH conditions, rock deformation and acoustic emission (AE) were negligible during the chelating agent flow-through experiments on the fractured samples, whereas similar permeability enhancement factors were achieved within the same duration. Thus, stress did not affect the permeability enhancement by chelating agent injections. The permeability enhancement factors were inferred to be high near the injection borehole because of the high viscosity of the solution. Therefore, reservoir stimulation should be conducted using low-concentration chelating agent solutions at constant injection pressures. The study provides insights into the stimulation strategies for creating geothermal reservoirs using CO2 injection.

Description: 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 funguslike 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.
