    Description: It is well established that mantle plumes are the main conduits for upwelling geochemically enriched material from Earth's deep interior. The fashion and extent to which lateral flow processes at shallow depths may disperse enriched mantle material far (〉1,000 km) from vertical plume conduits, however, remain poorly constrained. Here, we report He and C isotope data from 65 hydrothermal fluids from the southern Central America Margin (CAM) which reveal strikingly high 3He/4He (up to 8.9RA) in low-temperature (≤50 °C) geothermal springs of central Panama that are not associated with active volcanism. Following radiogenic correction, these data imply a mantle source 3He/4He 〉10.3RA (and potentially up to 26RA, similar to Galápagos hotspot lavas) markedly greater than the upper mantle range (8 ± 1RA). Lava geochemistry (Pb isotopes, Nb/U, and Ce/Pb) and geophysical constraints show that high 3He/4He values in central Panama are likely derived from the infiltration of a Galápagos plume–like mantle through a slab window that opened ∼8 Mya. Two potential transport mechanisms can explain the connection between the Galápagos plume and the slab window: 1) sublithospheric transport of Galápagos plume material channeled by lithosphere thinning along the Panama Fracture Zone or 2) active upwelling of Galápagos plume material blown by a “mantle wind” toward the CAM. We present a model of global mantle flow that supports the second mechanism, whereby most of the eastward transport of Galápagos plume material occurs in the shallow asthenosphere. These findings underscore the potential for lateral mantle flow to transport mantle geochemical heterogeneities thousands of kilometers away from plume conduits.

    Description: The gastropod mollusk Aplysia is an important model for cellular and molecular neurobiological studies, particularly for investigations of molecular mechanisms of learning and memory. We developed an optimized assembly pipeline to generate an improved Aplysia nervous system transcriptome. This improved transcriptome enabled us to explore the evolution of cognitive capacity at the molecular level. Were there evolutionary expansions of neuronal genes between this relatively simple gastropod Aplysia (20,000 neurons) and Octopus (500 million neurons), the invertebrate with the most elaborate neuronal circuitry and greatest behavioral complexity? Are the tremendous advances in cognitive power in vertebrates explained by expansion of the synaptic proteome that resulted from multiple rounds of whole genome duplication in this clade? Overall, the complement of genes linked to neuronal function is similar between Octopus and Aplysia. As expected, a number of synaptic scaffold proteins have more isoforms in humans than in Aplysia or Octopus. However, several scaffold families present in mollusks and other protostomes are absent in vertebrates, including the Fifes, Lev10s, SOLs, and a NETO family. Thus, whereas vertebrates have more scaffold isoforms from select families, invertebrates have additional scaffold protein families not found in vertebrates. This analysis provides insights into the evolution of the synaptic proteome. Both synaptic proteins and synaptic plasticity evolved gradually, yet the last deuterostome-protostome common ancestor already possessed an elaborate suite of genes associated with synaptic function, and critical for synaptic plasticity.

    Description: Comprehensive knowledge of the distribution of active hydrothermal vent fields along midocean ridges is essential to understanding global chemical and heat fluxes and endemic faunal distributions. However, current knowledge is biased by a historical preference for on-axis surveys. A scarcity of high-resolution bathymetric surveys in off-axis regions limits vent identification, which implies that the number of vents may be underestimated. Here, we present the discovery of an active, high-temperature, off-axis hydrothermal field on a fast-spreading ridge. The vent field is located 750 m east of the East Pacific Rise axis and ∼7 km north of on-axis vents at 9° 50′N, which are situated in a 50- to 100-m-wide trough. This site is currently the largest vent field known on the East Pacific Rise between 9 and 10° N. Its proximity to a normal fault suggests that hydrothermal fluid pathways are tectonically controlled. Geochemical evidence reveals deep fluid circulation to depths only 160 m above the axial magma lens. Relative to on-axis vents at 9° 50′N, these off-axis fluids attain higher temperatures and pressures. This tectonically controlled vent field may therefore exhibit greater stability in fluid composition, in contrast to more dynamic, dike-controlled, on-axis vents. The location of this site indicates that high-temperature convective circulation cells extend to greater distances off axis than previously realized. Thorough high-resolution mapping is necessary to understand the distribution, frequency, and physical controls on active off-axis vent fields so that their contribution to global heat and chemical fluxes and role in metacommunity dynamics can be determined.

    Hox gene expression predicts tetrapod-like axial regionalization in the skate, Leucoraja erinacea (2022)

E., Koo, E. T., Head, J. J., & Gillis, J. A. Hox gene expression predicts tetrapod-like axial regionalization in the skate, Leucoraja erinacea.

    Description: The axial skeleton of tetrapods is organized into distinct anteroposterior regions of the vertebral column (cervical, trunk, sacral, and caudal), and transitions between these regions are determined by colinear anterior expression boundaries of Hox5/6, -9, -10, and -11 paralogy group genes within embryonic paraxial mesoderm. Fishes, conversely, exhibit little in the way of discrete axial regionalization, and this has led to scenarios of an origin of Hox-mediated axial skeletal complexity with the evolutionary transition to land in tetrapods. Here, combining geometric morphometric analysis of vertebral column morphology with cell lineage tracing of hox gene expression boundaries in developing embryos, we recover evidence of at least five distinct regions in the vertebral skeleton of a cartilaginous fish, the little skate (Leucoraja erinacea). We find that skate embryos exhibit tetrapod-like anteroposterior nesting of hox gene expression in their paraxial mesoderm, and we show that anterior expression boundaries of hox5/6, hox9, hox10, and hox11 paralogy group genes predict regional transitions in the differentiated skate axial skeleton. Our findings suggest that hox-based axial skeletal regionalization did not originate with tetrapods but rather has a much deeper evolutionary history than was previously appreciated.

    Description: East Africa is a global biodiversity hotspot and exhibits distinct longitudinal diversity gradients from west to east in freshwater fishes and forest mammals. The assembly of this exceptional biodiversity and the drivers behind diversity gradients remain poorly understood, with diversification often studied at local scales and less attention paid to biotic exchange between Afrotropical regions. Here, we reconstruct a river system that existed for several millennia along the now semiarid Kenya Rift Valley during the humid early Holocene and show how this river system influenced postglacial dispersal of fishes and mammals due to its dual role as a dispersal corridor and barrier. Using geomorphological, geochronological, isotopic, and fossil analyses and a synthesis of radiocarbon dates, we find that the overflow of Kenyan rift lakes between 12 and 8 ka before present formed a bidirectional river system consisting of a “Northern River” connected to the Nile Basin and a “Southern River,” a closed basin. The drainage divide between these rivers represented the only viable terrestrial dispersal corridor across the rift. The degree and duration of past hydrological connectivity between adjacent river basins determined spatial diversity gradients for East African fishes. Our reconstruction explains the isolated distribution of Nilotic fish species in modern Kenyan rift lakes, Guineo-Congolian mammal species in forests east of the Kenya Rift, and recent incipient vertebrate speciation and local endemism in this region. Climate-driven rearrangements of drainage networks unrelated to tectonic activity contributed significantly to the assembly of species diversity and modern faunas in the East African biodiversity hotspot.

    Description: Disentangling the roles of the external environment and internal biotic drivers of plant population dynamics is challenging due to the absence of relevant physiological and abundance information over appropriate space and time scales. Remote observations of giant kelp biomass and photosynthetic pigment concentrations are used to show that spatiotemporal patterns of physiological condition, and thus growth and production, are regulated by different processes depending on the scale of observation. Nutrient supply was linked to regional scale (〉1 km) physiological condition dynamics, and kelp forest stands were more persistent where nutrient levels were consistently high. However, on local scales (〈1 km), internal senescence processes related to canopy age demographics determined patterns of biomass loss across individual kelp forests despite uniform nutrient conditions. Repeat measurements of physiology over continuous spatial fields can provide insights into complex dynamics that are unexplained by the environmental drivers thought to regulate abundance. Emerging remote sensing technologies that provide simultaneous estimates of abundance and physiology can quantify the roles of environmental change and demographics governing plant population dynamics for a wide range of aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.

    Description: Changes in chromium (Cr) isotope ratios due to fractionation between trivalent [Cr(III)] and hexavalent [Cr(VI)] are being utilized by geologists to infer oxygen conditions in past environments. However, there is little information available on Cr in the modern ocean to ground-truth these inferences. Transformations between the two chromium species are important processes in oceanic Cr cycling. Here we present profiles of hexavalent and trivalent Cr concentrations and stable isotope ratios from the eastern tropical North Pacific (ETNP) oxygen-deficient zone (ODZ) which support theoretical and experimental studies that predict that lighter Cr is preferentially reduced in low-oxygen environments and that residual dissolved Cr becomes heavier due to removal of particle-reactive Cr(III) on sinking particles. The Cr(III) maximum dominantly occurs in the upper portion of the ODZ, implying that microbial activity (dependent on the sinking flux of organic matter) may be the dominant mechanism for this transformation, rather than a simple inorganic chemical conversion between the species depending on the redox potential.

    Description: Marine traffic is increasing globally yet collisions with endangered megafauna such as whales, sea turtles, and planktivorous sharks go largely undetected or unreported. Collisions leading to mortality can have population-level consequences for endangered species. Hence, identifying simultaneous space use of megafauna and shipping throughout ranges may reveal as-yet-unknown spatial targets requiring conservation. However, global studies tracking megafauna and shipping occurrences are lacking. Here we combine satellite-tracked movements of the whale shark, Rhincodon typus, and vessel activity to show that 92% of sharks’ horizontal space use and nearly 50% of vertical space use overlap with persistent large vessel (〉300 gross tons) traffic. Collision-risk estimates correlated with reported whale shark mortality from ship strikes, indicating higher mortality in areas with greatest overlap. Hotspots of potential collision risk were evident in all major oceans, predominantly from overlap with cargo and tanker vessels, and were concentrated in gulf regions, where dense traffic co-occurred with seasonal shark movements. Nearly a third of whale shark hotspots overlapped with the highest collision-risk areas, with the last known locations of tracked sharks coinciding with busier shipping routes more often than expected. Depth-recording tags provided evidence for sinking, likely dead, whale sharks, suggesting substantial “cryptic” lethal ship strikes are possible, which could explain why whale shark population declines continue despite international protection and low fishing-induced mortality. Mitigation measures to reduce ship-strike risk should be considered to conserve this species and other ocean giants that are likely experiencing similar impacts from growing global vessel traffic.

    Description: Phosphonates are organophosphorus metabolites with a characteristic C-P bond. They are ubiquitous in the marine environment, their degradation broadly supports ecosystem productivity, and they are key components of the marine phosphorus (P) cycle. However, the microbial producers that sustain the large oceanic inventory of phosphonates as well as the physiological and ecological roles of phosphonates are enigmatic. Here, we show that phosphonate synthesis genes are rare but widely distributed among diverse bacteria and archaea, including Prochlorococcus and SAR11, the two major groups of bacteria in the ocean. In addition, we show that Prochlorococcus can allocate over 40% of its total cellular P-quota toward phosphonate production. However, we find no evidence that Prochlorococcus uses phosphonates for surplus P storage, and nearly all producer genomes lack the genes necessary to degrade and assimilate phosphonates. Instead, we postulate that phosphonates are associated with cell-surface glycoproteins, suggesting that phosphonates mediate ecological interactions between the cell and its surrounding environment. Our findings indicate that the oligotrophic surface ocean phosphonate pool is sustained by a relatively small fraction of the bacterioplankton cells allocating a significant portion of their P quotas toward secondary metabolism and away from growth and reproduction.

    Description: November 2020 marked 2 y since the launch of the Earth BioGenome Project (EBP), which aims to sequence all known eukaryotic species in a 10-y timeframe. Since then, significant progress has been made across all aspects of the EBP roadmap, as outlined in the 2018 article describing the project’s goals, strategies, and challenges (1). The launch phase has ended and the clock has started on reaching the EBP’s major milestones. This Special Feature explores the many facets of the EBP, including a review of progress, a description of major scientific goals, exemplar projects, ethical legal and social issues, and applications of biodiversity genomics. In this Introduction, we summarize the current status of the EBP, held virtually October 5 to 9, 2020, including recent updates through February 2021. References to the nine Perspective articles included in this Special Feature are cited to guide the reader toward deeper understanding of the goals and challenges facing the EBP.

    Description: Terrestrial vegetation and soils hold three times more carbon than the atmosphere. Much debate concerns how anthropogenic activity will perturb these surface reservoirs, potentially exacerbating ongoing changes to the climate system. Uncertainties specifically persist in extrapolating point-source observations to ecosystem-scale budgets and fluxes, which require consideration of vertical and lateral processes on multiple temporal and spatial scales. To explore controls on organic carbon (OC) turnover at the river basin scale, we present radiocarbon (14C) ages on two groups of molecular tracers of plant-derived carbon—leaf-wax lipids and lignin phenols—from a globally distributed suite of rivers. We find significant negative relationships between the 14C age of these biomarkers and mean annual temperature and precipitation. Moreover, riverine biospheric-carbon ages scale proportionally with basin-wide soil carbon turnover times and soil 14C ages, implicating OC cycling within soils as a primary control on exported biomarker ages and revealing a broad distribution of soil OC reactivities. The ubiquitous occurrence of a long-lived soil OC pool suggests soil OC is globally vulnerable to perturbations by future temperature and precipitation increase. Scaling of riverine biospheric-carbon ages with soil OC turnover shows the former can constrain the sensitivity of carbon dynamics to environmental controls on broad spatial scales. Extracting this information from fluvially dominated sedimentary sequences may inform past variations in soil OC turnover in response to anthropogenic and/or climate perturbations. In turn, monitoring riverine OC composition may help detect future climate-change–induced perturbations of soil OC turnover and stocks.

    Description: The first Caribbean settlers were Amerindians from South America. Great Abaco and Grand Bahama, the final islands colonized in the northernmost Bahamas, were inhabited by the Lucayans when Europeans arrived. The timing of Lucayan arrival in the northern Bahamas has been uncertain because direct archaeological evidence is limited. We document Lucayan arrival on Great Abaco Island through a detailed record of vegetation, fire, and landscape dynamics based on proxy data from Blackwood Sinkhole. From about 3,000 to 1,000 y ago, forests dominated by hardwoods and palms were resilient to the effects of hurricanes and cooling sea surface temperatures. The arrival of Lucayans by about 830 CE (2σ range: 720 to 920 CE) is demarcated by increased burning and followed by landscape disturbance and a time-transgressive shift from hardwoods and palms to the modern pine forest. Considering that Lucayan settlements in the southern Bahamian archipelago are dated to about 750 CE (2σ range: 600 to 900 CE), these results demonstrate that Lucayans spread rapidly through the archipelago in less than 100 y. Although precontact landscapes would have been influenced by storms and climatic trends, the most pronounced changes follow more directly from landscape burning and ecosystem shifts after Lucayan arrival. The pine forests of Abaco declined substantially between 1500 and 1670 CE, a period of increased regional hurricane activity, coupled with fires on an already human-impacted landscape. Any future intensification of hurricane activity in the tropical North Atlantic Ocean threatens the sustainability of modern pine forests in the northern Bahamas.

    Description: Collecting and removing ocean plastics can mitigate their environmental impacts; however, ocean cleanup will be a complex and energy-intensive operation that has not been fully evaluated. This work examines the thermodynamic feasibility and subsequent implications of hydrothermally converting this waste into a fuel to enable self-powered cleanup. A comprehensive probabilistic exergy analysis demonstrates that hydrothermal liquefaction has potential to generate sufficient energy to power both the process and the ship performing the cleanup. Self-powered cleanup reduces the number of roundtrips to port of a waste-laden ship, eliminating the need for fossil fuel use for most plastic concentrations. Several cleanup scenarios are modeled for the Great Pacific Garbage Patch (GPGP), corresponding to 230 t to 11,500 t of plastic removed yearly; the range corresponds to uncertainty in the surface concentration of plastics in the GPGP. Estimated cleanup times depends mainly on the number of booms that can be deployed in the GPGP without sacrificing collection efficiency. Self-powered cleanup may be a viable approach for removal of plastics from the ocean, and gaps in our understanding of GPGP characteristics should be addressed to reduce uncertainty.

    Description: For organisms to have robust locomotion, their neuromuscular organization must adapt to constantly changing environments. In jellyfish, swimming robustness emerges when marginal pacemakers fire action potentials throughout the bell’s motor nerve net, which signals the musculature to contract. The speed of the muscle activation wave is dictated by the passage times of the action potentials. However, passive elastic material properties also influence the emergent kinematics, with time scales independent of neuromuscular organization. In this multimodal study, we examine the interplay between these two time scales during turning. A three-dimensional computational fluid–structure interaction model of a jellyfish was developed to determine the resulting emergent kinematics, using bidirectional muscular activation waves to actuate the bell rim. Activation wave speeds near the material wave speed yielded successful turns, with a 76-fold difference in turning rate between the best and worst performers. Hyperextension of the margin occurred only at activation wave speeds near the material wave speed, suggesting resonance. This hyperextension resulted in a 34-fold asymmetry in the circulation of the vortex ring between the inside and outside of the turn. Experimental recording of the activation speed confirmed that jellyfish actuate within this range, and flow visualization using particle image velocimetry validated the corresponding fluid dynamics of the numerical model. This suggests that neuromechanical wave resonance plays an important role in the robustness of an organism’s locomotory system and presents an undiscovered constraint on the evolution of flexible organisms. Understanding these dynamics is essential for developing actuators in soft body robotics and bioengineered pumps.

    Description: Nutrient acquisition is crucial for oceanic microbes, and competitive solutions to solve this challenge have evolved among a range of unicellular protists. However, solitary solutions are not the only approach found in natural populations. A diverse array of oceanic protists form temporary or even long-lasting attachments to other protists and marine aggregates. Do these planktonic consortia provide benefits to their members? Here, we use empirical and modeling approaches to evaluate whether the relationship between a large centric diatom, Coscinodiscus wailesii, and a ciliate epibiont, Pseudovorticella coscinodisci, provides nutrient flux benefits to the host diatom. We find that fluid flows generated by ciliary beating can increase nutrient flux to a diatom cell surface four to 10 times that of a still cell without ciliate epibionts. This cosmopolitan species of diatom does not form consortia in all environments but frequently joins such consortia in nutrient-depleted waters. Our results demonstrate that symbiotic consortia provide a cooperative alternative of comparable or greater magnitude to sinking for enhancement of nutrient acquisition in challenging environments.

    Description: Hydrothermally active submarine volcanoes are mineral-rich biological oases contributing significantly to chemical fluxes in the deep sea, yet little is known about the microbial communities inhabiting these systems. Here we investigate the diversity of microbial life in hydrothermal deposits and their metagenomics-inferred physiology in light of the geological history and resulting hydrothermal fluid paths in the subsurface of Brothers submarine volcano north of New Zealand on the southern Kermadec arc. From metagenome-assembled genomes we identified over 90 putative bacterial and archaeal genomic families and nearly 300 previously unknown genera, many potentially endemic to this submarine volcanic environment. While magmatically influenced hydrothermal systems on the volcanic resurgent cones of Brothers volcano harbor communities of thermoacidophiles and diverse members of the superphylum “DPANN,” two distinct communities are associated with the caldera wall, likely shaped by two different types of hydrothermal circulation. The communities whose phylogenetic diversity primarily aligns with that of the cone sites and magmatically influenced hydrothermal systems elsewhere are characterized predominately by anaerobic metabolisms. These populations are probably maintained by fluids with greater magmatic inputs that have interacted with different (deeper) previously altered mineral assemblages. However, proximal (a few meters distant) communities with gene-inferred aerobic, microaerophilic, and anaerobic metabolisms are likely supported by shallower seawater-dominated circulation. Furthermore, mixing of fluids from these two distinct hydrothermal circulation systems may have an underlying imprint on the high microbial phylogenomic diversity. Collectively our results highlight the importance of considering geologic evolution and history of subsurface processes in studying microbial colonization and community dynamics in volcanic environments.

    Description: The 24-h cycle of light and darkness governs daily rhythms of complex behaviors across all domains of life. Intracellular photoreceptors sense specific wavelengths of light that can reset the internal circadian clock and/or elicit distinct phenotypic responses. In the surface ocean, microbial communities additionally modulate nonrhythmic changes in light quality and quantity as they are mixed to different depths. Here, we show that eukaryotic plankton in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre transcribe genes encoding light-sensitive proteins that may serve as light-activated transcription factors, elicit light-driven electrical/chemical cascades, or initiate secondary messenger-signaling cascades. Overall, the protistan community relies on blue light-sensitive photoreceptors of the cryptochrome/photolyase family, and proteins containing the Light-Oxygen-Voltage (LOV) domain. The greatest diversification occurred within Haptophyta and photosynthetic stramenopiles where the LOV domain was combined with different DNA-binding domains and secondary signal-transduction motifs. Flagellated protists utilize green-light sensory rhodopsins and blue-light helmchromes, potentially underlying phototactic/photophobic and other behaviors toward specific wavelengths of light. Photoreceptors such as phytochromes appear to play minor roles in the North Pacific Subtropical Gyre. Transcript abundance of environmental light-sensitive protein-encoding genes that display diel patterns are found to primarily peak at dawn. The exceptions are the LOV-domain transcription factors with peaks in transcript abundances at different times and putative phototaxis photoreceptors transcribed throughout the day. Together, these data illustrate the diversity of light-sensitive proteins that may allow disparate groups of protists to respond to light and potentially synchronize patterns of growth, division, and mortality within the dynamic ocean environment.

    Description: Among the organisms that spread into and flourish in Arctic waters with rising temperatures and sea ice loss are toxic algae, a group of harmful algal bloom species that produce potent biotoxins. Alexandrium catenella, a cyst-forming dinoflagellate that causes paralytic shellfish poisoning worldwide, has been a significant threat to human health in southeastern Alaska for centuries. It is known to be transported into Arctic regions in waters transiting northward through the Bering Strait, yet there is little recognition of this organism as a human health concern north of the Strait. Here, we describe an exceptionally large A. catenella benthic cyst bed and hydrographic conditions across the Chukchi Sea that support germination and development of recurrent, locally originating and self-seeding blooms. Two prominent cyst accumulation zones result from deposition promoted by weak circulation. Cyst concentrations are among the highest reported globally for this species, and the cyst bed is at least 6× larger in area than any other. These extraordinary accumulations are attributed to repeated inputs from advected southern blooms and to localized cyst formation and deposition. Over the past two decades, warming has likely increased the magnitude of the germination flux twofold and advanced the timing of cell inoculation into the euphotic zone by 20 d. Conditions are also now favorable for bloom development in surface waters. The region is poised to support annually recurrent A. catenella blooms that are massive in scale, posing a significant and worrisome threat to public and ecosystem health in Alaskan Arctic communities where economies are subsistence based.

    Description: Heterotrophic microorganisms are fiendishly clever at degrading all shapes and sizes of organic compounds to extract the energy they need to build biomass. Every year marine phytoplankton fix ∼50 billion tons of carbon dioxide into organic matter, and every year marine heterotrophs respire nearly all of this organic matter back to carbon dioxide (1). Nearly all, but not all. With each spin of this carbon cycle, a small amount of organic matter escapes respiration and becomes sequestered in seawater, sediments, and soils. Over time, this small “leak” in the system leads to the accumulation of a vast reservoir of carbon; some 5 × 1019 kg of organic matter are thought to be sequestered in sedimentary rocks (2). This carbon sequestration has immense consequences for life on Earth, as illustrated by the change in climate we are now experiencing due in part to the transfer of a minute portion of this inventory from geologic reservoirs into the atmosphere.

    Description: The two dominant drivers of the global mean sea level (GMSL) variability at interannual timescales are steric changes due to changes in ocean heat content and barystatic changes due to the exchange of water mass between land and ocean. With Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellites and Argo profiling floats, it has been possible to measure the relative steric and barystatic contributions to GMSL since 2004. While efforts to “close the GMSL budget” with satellite altimetry and other observing systems have been largely successful with regards to trends, the short time period covered by these records prohibits a full understanding of the drivers of interannual to decadal variability in GMSL. One particular area of focus is the link between variations in the El Niño−Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and GMSL. Recent literature disagrees on the relative importance of steric and barystatic contributions to interannual to decadal variability in GMSL. Here, we use a multivariate data analysis technique to estimate variability in barystatic and steric contributions to GMSL back to 1982. These independent estimates explain most of the observed interannual variability in satellite altimeter-measured GMSL. Both processes, which are highly correlated with ENSO variations, contribute about equally to observed interannual GMSL variability. A theoretical scaling analysis corroborates the observational results. The improved understanding of the origins of interannual variability in GMSL has important implications for our understanding of long-term trends in sea level, the hydrological cycle, and the planet’s radiation imbalance.

    Description: Identifying the origin of noble gases in Earth’s mantle can provide crucial constraints on the source and timing of volatile (C, N, H2O, noble gases, etc.) delivery to Earth. It remains unclear whether the early Earth was able to directly capture and retain volatiles throughout accretion or whether it accreted anhydrously and subsequently acquired volatiles through later additions of chondritic material. Here, we report high-precision noble gas isotopic data from volcanic gases emanating from, in and around, the Yellowstone caldera (Wyoming, United States). We show that the He and Ne isotopic and elemental signatures of the Yellowstone gas requires an input from an undegassed mantle plume. Coupled with the distinct ratio of 129Xe to primordial Xe isotopes in Yellowstone compared with mid-ocean ridge basalt (MORB) samples, this confirms that the deep plume and shallow MORB mantles have remained distinct from one another for the majority of Earth’s history. Krypton and xenon isotopes in the Yellowstone mantle plume are found to be chondritic in origin, similar to the MORB source mantle. This is in contrast with the origin of neon in the mantle, which exhibits an isotopic dichotomy between solar plume and chondritic MORB mantle sources. The co-occurrence of solar and chondritic noble gases in the deep mantle is thought to reflect the heterogeneous nature of Earth’s volatile accretion during the lifetime of the protosolar nebula. It notably implies that the Earth was able to retain its chondritic volatiles since its earliest stages of accretion, and not only through late additions.

    Description: The balance between sources and sinks of molecular oxygen in the oceans has greatly impacted the composition of Earth’s atmosphere since the evolution of oxygenic photosynthesis, thereby exerting key influence on Earth’s climate and the redox state of (sub)surface Earth. The canonical source and sink terms of the marine oxygen budget include photosynthesis, respiration, photorespiration, the Mehler reaction, and other smaller terms. However, recent advances in understanding cryptic oxygen cycling, namely the ubiquitous one-electron reduction of O2 to superoxide by microorganisms outside the cell, remains unexplored as a potential player in global oxygen dynamics. Here we show that dark extracellular superoxide production by marine microbes represents a previously unconsidered global oxygen flux and sink comparable in magnitude to other key terms. We estimate that extracellular superoxide production represents a gross oxygen sink comprising about a third of marine gross oxygen production, and a net oxygen sink amounting to 15 to 50% of that. We further demonstrate that this total marine dark extracellular superoxide flux is consistent with concentrations of superoxide in marine environments. These findings underscore prolific marine sources of reactive oxygen species and a complex and dynamic oxygen cycle in which oxygen consumption and corresponding carbon oxidation are not necessarily confined to cell membranes or exclusively related to respiration. This revised model of the marine oxygen cycle will ultimately allow for greater reconciliation among estimates of primary production and respiration and a greater mechanistic understanding of redox cycling in the ocean.

    Description: Among green plants, desiccation tolerance is common in seeds and spores but rare in leaves and other vegetative green tissues. Over the last two decades, genes have been identified whose expression is induced by desiccation in diverse, desiccation-tolerant (DT) taxa, including, e.g., late embryogenesis abundant proteins (LEA) and reactive oxygen species scavengers. This up-regulation is observed in DT resurrection plants, mosses, and green algae most closely related to these Embryophytes. Here we test whether this same suite of protective genes is up-regulated during desiccation in even more distantly related DT green algae, and, importantly, whether that up-regulation is unique to DT algae or also occurs in a desiccation-intolerant relative. We used three closely related aquatic and desert-derived green microalgae in the family Scenedesmaceae and capitalized on extraordinary desiccation tolerance in two of the species, contrasting with desiccation intolerance in the third. We found that during desiccation, all three species increased expression of common protective genes. The feature distinguishing gene expression in DT algae, however, was extensive down-regulation of gene expression associated with diverse metabolic processes during the desiccation time course, suggesting a switch from active growth to energy-saving metabolism. This widespread downshift did not occur in the desiccation-intolerant taxon. These results show that desiccation-induced up-regulation of expression of protective genes may be necessary but is not sufficient to confer desiccation tolerance. The data also suggest that desiccation tolerance may require induced protective mechanisms operating in concert with massive down-regulation of gene expression controlling numerous other aspects of metabolism.

    Description: Understanding circuit organization depends on identification of cell types. Recent advances in transcriptional profiling methods have enabled classification of cell types by their gene expression. While exceptionally powerful and high throughput, the ground-truth validation of these methods is difficult: If cell type is unknown, how does one assess whether a given analysis accurately captures neuronal identity? To shed light on the capabilities and limitations of solely using transcriptional profiling for cell-type classification, we performed 2 forms of transcriptional profiling—RNA-seq and quantitative RT-PCR, in single, unambiguously identified neurons from 2 small crustacean neuronal networks: The stomatogastric and cardiac ganglia. We then combined our knowledge of cell type with unbiased clustering analyses and supervised machine learning to determine how accurately functionally defined neuron types can be classified by expression profile alone. The results demonstrate that expression profile is able to capture neuronal identity most accurately when combined with multimodal information that allows for post hoc grouping, so analysis can proceed from a supervised perspective. Solely unsupervised clustering can lead to misidentification and an inability to distinguish between 2 or more cell types. Therefore, this study supports the general utility of cell identification by transcriptional profiling, but adds a caution: It is difficult or impossible to know under what conditions transcriptional profiling alone is capable of assigning cell identity. Only by combining multiple modalities of information such as physiology, morphology, or innervation target can neuronal identity be unambiguously determined.

    Description: Seawater Mg:Ca and Sr:Ca ratios are biogeochemical parameters reflecting the Earth–ocean–atmosphere dynamic exchange of elements. The ratios’ dependence on the environment and organisms' biology facilitates their application in marine sciences. Here, we present a measured single-laboratory dataset, combined with previous data, to test the assumption of limited seawater Mg:Ca and Sr:Ca variability across marine environments globally. High variability was found in open-ocean upwelling and polar regions, shelves/neritic and river-influenced areas, where seawater Mg:Ca and Sr:Ca ratios range from ∼4.40 to 6.40 mmol:mol and ∼6.95 to 9.80 mmol:mol, respectively. Open-ocean seawater Mg:Ca is semiconservative (∼4.90 to 5.30 mol:mol), while Sr:Ca is more variable and nonconservative (∼7.70 to 8.80 mmol:mol); both ratios are nonconservative in coastal seas. Further, the Ca, Mg, and Sr elemental fluxes are connected to large total alkalinity deviations from International Association for the Physical Sciences of the Oceans (IAPSO) standard values. Because there is significant modern seawater Mg:Ca and Sr:Ca ratios variability across marine environments we cannot absolutely assume that fossil archives using taxa-specific proxies reflect true global seawater chemistry but rather taxa- and process-specific ecosystem variations, reflecting regional conditions. This variability could reconcile secular seawater Mg:Ca and Sr:Ca ratio reconstructions using different taxa and techniques by assuming an error of 1 to 1.50 mol:mol, and 1 to 1.90 mmol:mol, respectively. The modern ratios’ variability is similar to the reconstructed rise over 20 Ma (Neogene Period), nurturing the question of seminonconservative behavior of Ca, Mg, and Sr over modern Earth geological history with an overlooked environmental effect.

    Description: Marine cold seeps transmit fluids between the subseafloor and seafloor biospheres through upward migration of hydrocarbons that originate in deep sediment layers. It remains unclear how geofluids influence the composition of the seabed microbiome and if they transport deep subsurface life up to the surface. Here we analyzed 172 marine surficial sediments from the deep-water Eastern Gulf of Mexico to assess whether hydrocarbon fluid migration is a mechanism for upward microbial dispersal. While 132 of these sediments contained migrated liquid hydrocarbons, evidence of continuous advective transport of thermogenic alkane gases was observed in 11 sediments. Gas seeps harbored distinct microbial communities featuring bacteria and archaea that are well-known inhabitants of deep biosphere sediments. Specifically, 25 distinct sequence variants within the uncultivated bacterial phyla Atribacteria and Aminicenantes and the archaeal order Thermoprofundales occurred in significantly greater relative sequence abundance along with well-known seep-colonizing members of the bacterial genus Sulfurovum, in the gas-positive sediments. Metabolic predictions guided by metagenome-assembled genomes suggested these organisms are anaerobic heterotrophs capable of nonrespiratory breakdown of organic matter, likely enabling them to inhabit energy-limited deep subseafloor ecosystems. These results point to petroleum geofluids as a vector for the advection-assisted upward dispersal of deep biosphere microbes from subsurface to surface environments, shaping the microbiome of cold seep sediments and providing a general mechanism for the maintenance of microbial diversity in the deep sea.

    Description: Maternal effect senescence—a decline in offspring survival or fertility with maternal age—has been demonstrated in many taxa, including humans. Despite decades of phenotypic studies, questions remain about how maternal effect senescence impacts evolutionary fitness. To understand the influence of maternal effect senescence on population dynamics, fitness, and selection, we developed matrix population models in which individuals are jointly classified by age and maternal age. We fit these models to data from individual-based culture experiments on the aquatic invertebrate, Brachionus manjavacas (Rotifera). By comparing models with and without maternal effects, we found that maternal effect senescence significantly reduces fitness for B. manjavacas and that this decrease arises primarily through reduced fertility, particularly at maternal ages corresponding to peak reproductive output. We also used the models to estimate selection gradients, which measure the strength of selection, in both high growth rate (laboratory) and two simulated low growth rate environments. In all environments, selection gradients on survival and fertility decrease with increasing age. They also decrease with increasing maternal age for late maternal ages, implying that maternal effect senescence can evolve through the same process as in Hamilton’s theory of the evolution of age-related senescence. The models we developed are widely applicable to evaluate the fitness consequences of maternal effect senescence across species with diverse aging and fertility schedule phenotypes.

    Description: Picophytoplankton are the most abundant primary producers in the ocean. Knowledge of their community dynamics is key to understanding their role in marine food webs and global biogeochemical cycles. To this end, we analyzed a 16-y time series of observations of a phytoplankton community at a nearshore site on the Northeast US Shelf. We used a size-structured population model to estimate in situ division rates for the picoeukaryote assemblage and compared the dynamics with those of the picocyanobacteria Synechococcus at the same location. We found that the picoeukaryotes divide at roughly twice the rate of the more abundant Synechococcus and are subject to greater loss rates (likely from viral lysis and zooplankton grazing). We describe the dynamics of these groups across short and long timescales and conclude that, despite their taxonomic differences, their populations respond similarly to changes in the biotic and abiotic environment. Both groups appear to be temperature limited in the spring and light limited in the fall and to experience greater mortality during the day than at night. Compared with Synechococcus, the picoeukaryotes are subject to greater top-down control and contribute more to the region’s primary productivity than their standing stocks suggest.

    Description: Subseafloor mixing of high-temperature hot-spring fluids with cold seawater creates intermediate-temperature diffuse fluids that are replete with potential chemical energy. This energy can be harnessed by a chemosynthetic biosphere that permeates hydrothermal regions on Earth. Shifts in the abundance of redox-reactive species in diffuse fluids are often interpreted to reflect the direct influence of subseafloor microbial activity on fluid geochemical budgets. Here, we examine hydrothermal fluids venting at 44 to 149 °C at the Piccard hydrothermal field that span the canonical 122 °C limit to life, and thus provide a rare opportunity to study the transition between habitable and uninhabitable environments. In contrast with previous studies, we show that hydrocarbons are contributed by biomass pyrolysis, while abiotic sulfate (SO42−) reduction produces large depletions in H2. The latter process consumes energy that could otherwise support key metabolic strategies employed by the subseafloor biosphere. Available Gibbs free energy is reduced by 71 to 86% across the habitable temperature range for both hydrogenotrophic SO42− reduction to hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction to methane (CH4). The abiotic H2 sink we identify has implications for the productivity of subseafloor microbial ecosystems and is an important process to consider within models of H2 production and consumption in young oceanic crust.

    Description: Oceanic transform faults display a unique combination of seismic and aseismic slip behavior, including a large globally averaged seismic deficit, and the local occurrence of repeating magnitude (M) ∼6 earthquakes with abundant foreshocks and seismic swarms, as on the Gofar transform of the East Pacific Rise and the Blanco Ridge in the northeast Pacific Ocean. However, the underlying mechanisms that govern the partitioning between seismic and aseismic slip and their interaction remain unclear. Here we present a numerical modeling study of earthquake sequences and aseismic transient slip on oceanic transform faults. In the model, strong dilatancy strengthening, supported by seismic imaging that indicates enhanced fluid-filled porosity and possible hydrothermal circulation down to the brittle–ductile transition, effectively stabilizes along-strike seismic rupture propagation and results in rupture barriers where aseismic transients arise episodically. The modeled slow slip migrates along the barrier zones at speeds ∼10 to 600 m/h, spatiotemporally correlated with the observed migration of seismic swarms on the Gofar transform. Our model thus suggests the possible prevalence of episodic aseismic transients in M ∼6 rupture barrier zones that host active swarms on oceanic transform faults and provides candidates for future seafloor geodesy experiments to verify the relation between aseismic fault slip, earthquake swarms, and fault zone hydromechanical properties.

    Description: The biological carbon pump (BCP) comprises wide-ranging processes that set carbon supply, consumption, and storage in the oceans’ interior. It is becoming increasingly evident that small changes in the efficiency of the BCP can significantly alter ocean carbon sequestration and, thus, atmospheric CO2 and climate, as well as the functioning of midwater ecosystems. Earth system models, including those used by the United Nation’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, most often assess POC (particulate organic carbon) flux into the ocean interior at a fixed reference depth. The extrapolation of these fluxes to other depths, which defines the BCP efficiencies, is often executed using an idealized and empirically based flux-vs.-depth relationship, often referred to as the “Martin curve.” We use a new compilation of POC fluxes in the upper ocean to reveal very different patterns in BCP efficiencies depending upon whether the fluxes are assessed at a fixed reference depth or relative to the depth of the sunlit euphotic zone (Ez). We find that the fixed-depth approach underestimates BCP efficiencies when the Ez is shallow, and vice versa. This adjustment alters regional assessments of BCP efficiencies as well as global carbon budgets and the interpretation of prior BCP studies. With several international studies recently underway to study the ocean BCP, there are new and unique opportunities to improve our understanding of the mechanistic controls on BCP efficiencies. However, we will only be able to compare results between studies if we use a common set of Ez-based metrics.

    Description: Plastic pollution is one of the most visible and complex environmental issues today. Interested and concerned parties include researchers, governmental agencies, nongovernmental organizations, industry, media, and the general public. One key assumption behind the issue and the public outcry is that plastics last indefinitely in the environment, resulting in chronic exposure that harms animals and humans. But the data supporting this assumption are scant.

    Notes: A new method for the phase control in an optical diffractometer is described. A photographic negative of the weighted reciprocal net is used as the mask of the diffractometer. The phase of each reciprocal point is represented by the shift of the position in the reciprocal plane. Although this method cannot reproduce the periodic image of a crystal, it is particularly suitable for reconstructing the image of a molecule in a crystal.

    Notes: Unusual SiC polytypic features have been studied by X-ray diffraction and chemical etching to increase understanding of their growth mechanism. The feasibility of periodic slip as a possible mode of growth of SiC polytypes has been examined. It is proposed that island formation on the helicoidal growth surface is responsible for most of the unusual SiC polytypes not explicable purely in terms of a screw-dislocation mechanism.

    Quantitative interpretation of X-ray diffraction patterns of mixtures. II. Adiabatic principle of X-ray diffraction analysis of mixtures (1974)

    Notes: All the information relating to the quantitative composition of a mixture is coded and stored in its X-ray diffraction pattern. It has been the goal of X-ray diffraction analysts since the discovery of X-rays to retrieve and decode this information directly from the X-ray diffraction pattern rather than resort to calibration curves or internal standards. This goal appears to be attained by the application of the `matrix-flushing theory' and the now-proposed `adiabatic principle' in applied X-ray diffraction analysis. The matrix-flushing theory offers a simple intensity-concentration equation free from matrix effects which degenerates to `auto-flushing' for binary systems. The adiabatic principle establishes that the intensity–concentration relationship between each and every pair of components in a multi component system is not perturbed by the presence or absence of other components. A key equation is derived which conducts the decoding process. Both the matrix-flushing theory and the adiabatic principle are experimentally verified.

    Notes: X-ray diffraction topography using transmission geometry has revealed an interesting array of extremely straight and narrow long-line images in sizeable copper single crystals grown under particular growth conditions by the Czochralski technique. These images are analyzed and elucidated by a model of Lomer–Cottrell dislocations. The formation of these sessile dislocations usually aids the growth of large copper crystals of high perfection. The high degree of perfection over the entire volume of the crystals accounts for macroscopic arrangements of Lomer–Cottrell dislocations which have not previously been observed by electron microscopic techniques.

    Notes: Investigations of many imperfect single crystals of different materials by means of a γ-diffractometer show that the mosaic structure of large single crystals is often very inhomogeneous: the mosaic distribution function has neither a Gaussian nor a Lorentzian shape and the shapes differ remarkably for different volume elements in the sample. Current extinction theories must be considered with reservation because Darwin's intensity transport equations are solved assuming the scattering length for a given angle of incidence to be constant all over the irradiated crystal volume. This is not true for samples with inhomogeneous mosaic structure.

Fraunhofer diffraction patterns of arrangements of holes in opaque screens have been compared with electron-diffraction patterns of the alloy films. It has been found possible to draw some general conclusions about the ways in which the antiphase domains fit together to produce certain characteristics of the electron-diffraction patterns. Some ideas are put forward about the growth of superlattices.

Part of the disk is used for temporary data storage, in a manner allowing rapid retrieval. X-ray diffraction photographs from macromolecular crystals can be measured at rates up to about 25 reflections per second, with the flexibility of an `on-line' system. The method can also be used when the computer is time-shared, but with lowered film-processing rates dependent on the number of `simultaneous' (time-sharing) users.

    Intensity determination by profile-fitting applied to precession photographs (1974)

    Notes: A profile-fitting algorithm has been applied to the determination of X-ray diffraction intensities from precession photographs. It is assumed that each reflection on the film has the same profile or scaled intensity distribution, over a two-dimensional array of points about its center. The integrated intensity of a reflection is that scale factor which gives the best fit between a scaled model profile and the optical density measurements of the reflection. The systematic error in the calculated intensity was evaluated from the discrepancy between the model and observed profiles and was about 2% for strong reflections (about 1.5 OD units). Profile fitting reduced the likely random error in the intensity, produced by errors in optical density measurements, to half the value given by conventional integration. This gain is especially significant for weak reflections which form the bulk of protein data sets. A comparison between film data processed by this method and diffractometer data for the protein lactate dehydrogenase, (34000 Dalton in asymmetric unit), showed that film data agreed with diffractometer data as well as diffractometer data sets agreed among themselves. Film data for glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (144000 Dalton in asymmetric unit) had a reliability index of 6% and significant Bijvoet differences were measured for mercury derivatives of the protein. Methods for the correction for non-linear effects in film data are evaluated for model data. It is shown that these corrections give significant improvement only when the data satisfy two conditions: they extend over a wide range of optical densities (at least 20D units) and they are reliable (better than 4% reliability index). Under these conditions an extended version of the Hamilton, Rollett and Sparks scaling algorithm performs better than the other methods considered.

    Notes: The construction and successful operation of a Laue-case skew-symmetric two-crystal X-ray interferometer is described. The alignment is accomplished with an auxiliary X-ray beam, which is multiply reflected by both interferometer parts. As expected, the skew-symmetric two-crystal interferometer is found to be considerably less affected by vibrations than is the symmetric two-crystal interferometer. [Bonse & te Kaat (1968), Z. Phys. 214, 16–21]. The dependence of the crystal lattice moiré pattern on rotations about the Δρ and Δ&thgr; axes are investigated.

    Notes: Precession X-ray films were scanned with a rotating-drum microdensitometer. It is necessary to correct for non-linearity between the scanner input and output. Reliability factors for estimating the precision of scanner measurements are compared. The values of the symmetry-averaged reliability factor, Rsym, vary between 3.9 and 12% and depend strongly on the quality of films, while the values of the scanning reproducibility factor, Rrept (3.5–4%), and the film-scaling reliability factor, Rscale (4.5–5.5%), depend more on the quality of scanner software and electronics than on films.

    Notes: This article is the text of a general lecture given at the Ninth International Congress of Crystallography, September 1972, at Kyoto, Japan. The lecture begins with the famous experiment of Kikuchi and continues with results of work carried out under the leadership of Miyake and the author. The main topics in the former part are: anomalous enhancement and splitting of Bragg peaks, appearance of non-Bragg maxima, dynamical multiple refraction, etc. Dynamical theories including inelastic scattering are introduced, and the formation mechanism of Kikuchi bands and absorption effects are explained. Electron diffraction and electron microscopy, which were originally developed as different fields, have been unified after 1950. The development of high-voltage electron microscopy is emphasized. The reason for the enhancement of dynamical effects at very high voltages is explained in terms of relativistic diffraction theory. As an example of some most remarkable dynamical effects, the vanishing of the second-order reflexion is described. Finally, the findings and developments in moiré patterns and lattice images are reviewed briefly. The lecture is devoted to diffraction phenomena themselves and applications to structural studies are excluded.

    Notes: X-ray divergent-beam anomalous-transmission patterns of [111] Gd3Ga5O12 crystal wafers cut from Czochralski-grown boules were obtained with Co radiation. The patterns contained {800} Kα transmission conics which just miss having a triple intersection. The intersection region was analyzed to determine the lattice parameter. The values of lattice parameter for wafers cut from several different boules ranged from 12.3807 to 12.383 Å with an estimated precision of ±0.0004 Å. The method is simple and non-destructive and offers sufficient precision to investigate compositional variations and to evaluate the crystals in terms of lattice parameter matching requirements for epitaxic film deposition.

    Notes: Measurements made by small-angle X-ray scattering on Al–Ag alloys aged at various temperatures have shown that the asymptotic Porod's law was obeyed except for a constant term. This additional term represents a Laue monotonic intensity, due mainly to atomic concentration fluctuations inside G.P. zones. The integrated intensity Q0 of the G.P. zones themselves can then be calculated, and the boundaries of the metastable miscibility gap estimated with more precision than previously. Furthermore, the integrated intensities in the first reciprocal-space shell make it possible to discuss the crystallographic structure of the G.P. zones. After quenching from 550 to −80°C, the measured intensities agree with the theoretical values, which implies that small G.P. zones ε′ are disordered. However, for aging above room temperature, there is no agreement between measured and theoretical values. When the aging temperature is increased from 140 to 190°C, an evolution towards a complex structure of G.P. zones is shown.

    Notes: Optical-transform methods remain useful aids in determining the structures of polymers, and other disordered materials, from X-ray scattering data. Hitherto a major difficulty has been the preparation of diffracting screens which contain sufficient information to specify adequately the material being studied. The Optronics P-1500 Photowrite system overcomes this difficulty. The equipment is described briefly and two examples of its use in optical transform methods are given.

    Is pyrolytic graphite an ideal mosaic crystal? (1974)

    Notes: Absolute reflectivities, width of rocking curves and effective absorption coefficients for many pyrolytic graphite crystals at different wavelengths were measured. The results can be described within a few percent by the formulae for the ideal mosaic crystal with absorption. Effective absorption is caused by unavoidable parasitic reflections. The measured effective absorption coefficient is the same for different specimens; it does not depend on the mosaic width. By means of this effective absorption, the peak reflectivity decreases with increasing mosaic width.

    X-ray study of an osmium oxyfluoride of unknown composition (1974)

    Notes: A small, colorless, single-crystal with appreciable vapor pressure at room temperature was presumed to be a new oxyfluoride compound of osmium. An X-ray study on a precession camera at a variety of temperatures from 20 to −100°C with many recrystallizations of the material revealed that it was dimorphic. One structure is monoclinic in space group C2/c with a unit cell nearly identical to that reported for OsO4. The second structure is cubic, a = 8.595 Å, Z = 8, space group P\bar 43n, with an extraordinary assortment of systematic absences which yield the most remarkable diffraction patterns the writer has ever encountered. The observations are accounted for by a structure comprising 8 tetrahedral molecules with the anions in cubic close packing at an anion–anion distance of 3.04 Å and with an Os–anion distance of 1.86 Å. The most likely possibilities for the chemical composition appear to be OsO2F2 or OsO3F.

    Notes: An improved iterative deconvolution procedure is described which involves convolution of an assumed function, which represents the imperfectly known result, with the instrument function and operation on the differences between the convoluted function and the observed data function. Its advantage over the simple Fourier–Stokes treatment lies in improved resolution, its capability to handle functions with discontinuities in the function or in its derivative, and the possibility of using a variable instrument function.

    Notes: The ordered structures of Cu–Pt alloys containing 65–78 at. % Pt have been investigated by a combined technique of selected-area electron diffraction and dark-field electron microscopy using thin foils prepared from bulk specimens, and three different types of ordered structure have been observed. Below the order–disorder transformation temperatures, alloys containing less than about 70 at. % Pt have the rhombohedral superlattice of the Cu3Pt5 type and those with more than 70 at. % Pt, the CuPt3-type superlattice with cubic symmetry. At lower temperatures, however, the orthorhombic superlattice is stable in the composition range from about 68 to 75 at. % Pt. On the basis of the present observations, a partial phase diagram around the composition CuPt3 has been determined.

    Notes: Neutron diffraction topography with thermal neutrons has been used to observe the three-dimensional strain fields in a hot-pressed germanium crystal 8 mm thick. In the stereo-paired and section topographs the strain fields were found to be columnar along the press direction. This result was confirmed by X-ray diffraction topography performed on slices cut from the same crystal.

    Notes: Gold films of several hundred Ångströms in thickness were evaporated on heated glass substrates. Fourier analysis of the 111 reflexion obtained with Cu Kα radiation showed that the thickness of the film must be fairly constant. After correction for instrumental broadening the 111 line profile was very similar to the theoretical profile of a reflexion from a plate of constant thickness. The thickness was measured in three different ways. It was shown that the first secondary maxima may be unreliable in the measurement of the thickness.

    Atomic ordering and lattice distortion in the zirconium–oxygen alloys with 28.2 and 29.2 at.% oxygen (1974)

    Notes: The structure of the interstitially ordered lattice formed in zirconium–oxygen alloys has been studied with use of single-crystal data obtained by X-ray and neutron diffraction methods. The structure belongs to space group P312 and the lattice parameters a and c are related to a0 and c0 of the host hexagonal metal lattice by a = √3a0 and c = c0. The ordered arrangement of interstitial oxygen atoms is described as a regular stacking of layers parallel to the (00.1) plane with the sequence (AC)B(AC)B... which is of the same type as that of nitrogen atoms in ε-Fe2N. The occupancy probability of oxygen atoms is high for interstitial sites of the A and B types while it is low for sites of the C type. The host metal lattice is distorted in such a way that spacings of successive (00.2) planes are not the same and a hexagonal network of atoms in these planes is periodically deformed.

    Notes: An extensive computer program has been developed to check the internal consistency of published, numeric, crystallographic data prior to storage in the data files of the Cambridge Crystallographic Data Centre. The coding is in Fortran IV for an IBM 3701165 with 1 megabyte store. The atomic coordinates, constitution and connectivity of the unique bonded residue(s) are determined from the published asymmetric unit coordinates. Bond lengths are calculated and compared with published values, and any discrepancies are flagged. Checks are made to ensure that the valency requirements of certain elemental types are not violated. The connectivity of the system is expressed in a compact notation. Axial projection plots may optionally be produced on the line printer. The program is likely to be generally useful to individual crystallographers at various stages of an analysis as well as for checking of published data.

    Notes: Experimental measurements were performed on a 48.4 at. % Ni/51.6 at. % Pt alloy. The order parameter S in equilibrium was measured as a function of temperature T by means of X-ray diffraction. Up to 592±3°C the sample is a single-phase ordered alloy with an order parameter above 0.98. Between 592 and 625±3°C there exists a two-phase region in which the ordered and disordered phases are in equilibrium. Above 625±3°C a disordered f.c.c. structure exists. Diffuse X-ray intensity measurements were performed at T = 1.1 Tc and both the short-range parameters αi and the size-effect parameters βi were calculated. From the αi parameters so derived three ordering energies νi were determined. It was found that these energies were consistent with the symmetry of the ordered phase below the critical temperature.

    A new iterative method for collimation correction in small-angle scattering (1974)

    Notes: A new iterative procedure for desmearing small-angle scattering data including the three types of resolution errors and arbitrary weighting functions is presented. The statistical errors of the data are taken into account by a `weighted least-squares' approximation, i.e. the accuracy of the data controls the iterative process. The degree of smoothing is dependent on a free smoothing parameter and on the accuracy of the data. The method is not restricted to special types of scattering functions. The termination error is negligible; therefore it is possible to correct parts of scattering distributions. This is of importance for investigations in biological substances where the scattering distribution must be determined in parts with different slit widths. No artificial oscillations are generated in the solution of the integral equation. To ensure the stability of the procedure a criterion for uniform convergence of the iterative process is involved. The results of several numerical tests are shown in the figures. The Fortran program was tested for several months with very satisfactory results.

    Notes: An analytic expression for the power transmitted through a Kratky small-angle X-ray scattering collimation geometry has been derived which depends on the size and position of a uniformly intense focal spot relative to the entrance slit in the width direction. Complete details on the derivation of this power expression are available from the authors. The power expression can be optimized, subject to the constraint of a predetermined and fixed minimum angle, to yield the optimum values for the collimation system parameters. This paper discusses the optimum values of the entrance and receiving slits for a given minimum angle and describes the application of these results for the entrance slit either fully or not fully illuminated. A comparison of the analytical power expression with the experimental scattered power is also given.

    The relation between the particle shape and the outer part of the small-angle X-ray scattering curve (1974)

    Notes: The relation between the form of the scattering particles and the outer part of the small-angle X-ray scattering curve has been studied. The particles are assumed to be independent, identical, and randomly oriented and to have a uniform electron density and a smooth, strictly convex boundary surface. The electron density of the solvent is also assumed to be uniform. As earlier calculations by the authors and others have shown, the effects of the particle shape on the scattered intensity can often be conveniently described by a function called the chord, or intersect, distribution G(M). A chord, or intersect, is a straight line that has both ends on the particle boundary surface, and G(M) is defined to have the property that G(M)dM is the probability that the chord length will lie between M and M+ dM. The outer part of the scattering curve is shown to depend on the form of G(M) only in the neighborhoods of M = 0 and of any M values at which G(M) or G′(M) are discontinuous. Methods are developed for finding where these discontinuities occur and for calculating the form of G(M) in the neighborhood of these M values. In the outer part of the scattering curve, the intensity I(h) is shown to have the limiting form I(h) = \pi I_{e}\rho^{2}h^{-4}\Bigg[2A+j_{-2}h^{-2}+ \sum_{i=0}^{N+1} j_{i} {{sin (hD_i + \phi _{i})}\over (hD_{i})^{\mu}_{\kern4pt i}}\Bigg] where h = 4πλ −1 sin (&thgr;/2), 2 is the X-ray wavelength, &thgr; is the scattering angle, Ie is the intensity scattered by a single electron, A is the particle surface area, the Di are the values of M at which G(M) or G′(M) is discontinuous, and j−2 and the ji, &phgr;i, and μi are quantities which can be calculated from the principal curvatures and other properties of the surface at the two points where it contacts the chord with length Di. The values of the μi are shown to lie in the interval 0 ≤ μi ≤ 1. In this equation the assumption is made that only the term or terms which vanish least rapidly as h increases are to be retained. In addition to the assumptions which conventionally are made in the analysis of the small-angle X-ray scattering from dilute suspensions, the limiting expression for the intensity for large h requires only that the particle boundary be smooth and strictly convex. This approximation is useful for determining the effect of the particle shape on the outer part of the scattering curve. In addition, the equation can be employed for numerical calculations for large h, where other methods of computation often are unwieldy or inapplicable.

    Calibration of polyethylene (lupolen) as a wavelength-independent absolute intensity standard (1974)

    Notes: The unified theory of absolute intensity measurements in small-angle X-ray scattering has been experimentally verified by determining a collimation system and wavelength-independent calibration constant for polyethylene (Lupolen). Consistent values of this constant were determined for three X-ray wavelengths (Ag Kα, Mo Kα and Cu Kα by gas scattering and multiple-foil attenuator experiments. The agreement of the results implies that all of the experimentally significant parameters involved in these absolute intensity calibrations have been identified. In addition, they show Lupolen to be a more general secondary standard than had been previously recognized.

    Notes: In order to get an idea of the possible neutron small-angle scattering experiments with solutions of macromolecules at the high-flux reactor of the Institut Max von Laue–Paul Langevin at Grenoble, aqueous solutions of molecules with molecular weights from about one hundred to several millions have been studied. Changing the contrast by using different H2O/D2O mixtures the basic scattering functions could be determined. Zero-angle scattering from neutron and X-ray small-angle scattering experiments are compared. In the case of ferritin the molecular-weight distribution could be determined from the dependence of zero-angle scattering on the solvent. A considerable variation of the square of the radius of gyration R at low contrast \bar \rho was observed. R2 turned out to be a linear function of 1/\bar \rho. The slope of the straight line is a measure of the homogeneity of the internal structure. Proton–deuteron exchange reactions have been studied. A time resolution of less than two seconds had been reached with myoglobin and other globular proteins.

    Notes: A model has been developed to calculate the diffraction given by a disordered set of thick coils of helical conformation. Double coils placed inside a cylinder of different density are considered. The cylinder accounts for the presence of substances which may interact with the double coil in a random manner. The thickness of each coil, pitch and radius of gyration, outer cylinder diameter and its density are the parameters that influence the diffraction maxima observed. It is demonstrated that when the parameter Z (pitch/radius) increases, the peaks tend to overlap. The relative position (α) of the two coils is also studied. When they are diametrically opposed, only even layer-line peaks are detected. At intermediate positions, other peaks appear, the intensity of which depends strongly on the precise value of α. An interesting result is that the relative position of the peaks for any single coil is constant and does not depend on the dimensions of the coil. The central scattering increases considerably if one of the two-component coils becomes a straight cylinder coaxial with the primitive coil. As a result the lower layer-line peaks do not show. On the other hand, the intensity due to the central equatorial peak diminishes when some packing order is introduced between coils. The model is suitable for interpreting the specific case of nucleohistone patterns.

    Notes: In the investigation of polymer solutions by small-angle neutron or X-ray scattering, the intermediate momentum range corresponds to the distance between the radius of gyration RG and the statistical subunit length l of the polymer chain. In this range, where the specific polymeric behaviour prevails, it can be shown, using the Debye relation, that the scattering curve presents a q−2 singularity, q being the momentum transfer.

    Notes: The small-angle scattering of polymers contains a component which is due to the statistical fluctuation of the density produced by imperfections in the long-range or short-range order. This fluctuation is entirely due to thermal motion and is related to the compressibility in the case of a one-component fluid system in thermodynamic equilibrium. In non-equilibrium one-component systems in the solid state, the statistical fluctuations of the density are, at least partly, due to frozen-in disordered structures.

    Notes: Small-angle scattering (SAS) of neutrons is applied to the investigation of the microinhomogeneous structure of glasses. The alumina–silica titania-containing systems are taken as the subject of the investigation. The negative sign of the Ti nuclear scattering amplitude sharply extends the sensitivity to fluctuations of the atomic density. The phase-segregation kinetics was studied in the temperature region 750–950°C. A comparison of neutron SAS data with the data from X-ray phase analysis and neutron diffraction has shown that the process of segregation into two amorphous phases is accompanied by the simultaneous ordering of the titania-rich phase up to the appearance of crystallites. The `glass-in-glass' state corresponds only to the initial stages of the decomposition.

    Notes: The small-angle neutron scattering from G. P. zones in aged Al–Mg alloys has been measured by the difference in intensity between the scattering before and after an anneal at 100°C sufficiently long for dissolving the zones. No zones have been found by this method in Al–7% Mg alloys. The scattering by zones found in Al–11.5% Mg alloys has been analysed with the help of a radial pair-correlation function written in the form of a sum of Gaussian distribution functions. Best fitting is obtained with a rather smooth function. The mean size of the zones has been determined: mean diameter of about 70 Å for an alloy aged one year at room temperature, and 110 Å, for an alloy aged the first three months at 40°C and then nine months at room temperature. The corresponding mean distance between the zones is found to be equal to about 130 and 200 Å, respectively. The concentration in Mg of the zones has been found to be of the order of magnitude of 20 to 25%.

    Notes: Small-angle scattering from an Fe65Ni35 single-crystal has been measured with the magnetic field applied parallel and perpendicular to the scattering vector κ. Scattering cross sections due to longitudinal and transverse fluctuations have been calculated. The transverse cross section consists mainly of spin-wave scattering and has a long tail up to κ = 0.2 Å−1. This suggests that there are spin-wave modes heavily damped by magnetic inhomogeneities. The longitudinal cross section can be described by a Guinier approximation (dσ/dΩ)0 exp (− κ2R2g/3) for the range 0.05 〈 κ 〈 0.2 Å−1. The forward-scattering cross section (dσ/dΩ)0 and the radius of gyration Rg obtained from experiment are compared with values calculated from Kachi's model. In this model the magnetization is zero for every cluster of 60 atoms with a concentration of nickel below 29%. The comparison shows that the observed value for Rg (= 7.7 Å) is about twice as large as the calculated one. The observed forward scattering (dσ/dΩ)0 has slightly different values for different crystal orientations and is on the average 75% of the calculated value. The agreement is remarkable with regard to the crudeness of the model.

    Notes: The superstructure of U4O9 above the transition was studied at 120 °C by single-crystal neutron diffraction. The space group I4132 is found not to change through the transition. The lattice constant of the superstructure is four times that of the fundamental fluorite-type UO2 mother structure. From difference Fourier synthesis for the superlattice reflections, the parameter in the special position 24(g) representing additional oxygen atoms in the fundamental structure was found to change a little at the transition.

    Further studies on the phase transformation in cadmium iodide polytypic crystals (1974)

    Notes: Certain aspects of phase transformations in cadmium iodide polytypic crystals have been studied for the first time. It has been shown that the transformation of an ordered polytypic structure into another ordered structure is possible. This fact has been elucidated from the transformation 14H → 4H and 18H → 4H. Electron-microscope evidence for the occurrence of such transformations has been obtained. The phase transformations have also been viewed in the light of the structural geometrical schemes and of the stacking-fault energies of initial and transformed structures. Polytypic transformation from a rhombohedral to a hexagonal type has been observed, 42R→ 12H. Transformations involving poly types having similar stacking-fault configurations in their layer sequences have also been studied. The observed transformations of this type are 28H → 4H and 36H → 4H.

    Notes: The structural characteristics of a reacted ohmic contact, platinum silicide, have been investigated using X-ray diffraction, electron diffraction and electron microscopy techniques. The contacts were formed by depositing Pt metal onto Si substrates and sintering at various temperatures in the range 225 to 725°C. Some slight initial reaction occurred at 225°C (the nominal substrate temperature) giving rise to both the thermodynamically stable PtSi and the intermediate reaction product Pt3Si. Complete reaction was accomplished when the contacts were sintered at temperatures in excess of 650°C. The compositions of the silicide contacts were independent of the method of metal deposition. The PtSi phase occurred as two distinct crystallographic components, one being moderately oriented, the other having a very high degree of the (010) type orientation. The relative proportions of these two components were solely dependent on the substrate temperature during deposition; the formation of the moderately oriented component could be suppressed by raising the substrate temperature above 500°C.

    Notes: A correction method has been devised in order to eliminate spurious details from the G(M) particle-size function. The method is based on the elimination of the negative minima in G(M) by an iterative procedure. It is applied to the distribution of Pt crystallite sizes in Pt/Al2O3 reforming catalysts.

    Notes: The defocusing of the diffracted beam in a texture goniometer using the reflection technique for the determination of the preferred orientation is discussed. By means of textureless (random) specimens of the ferromagnetic material Ba3Co2Fe24O41 this defocusing is measured for several diffraction planes in two cases: (1) a narrow and (2) a wide receiving slit. Calibration functions to correct for defocusing effects are calculated using an equation given by Gale & Griffiths [Brit. J. Appl. Phys. (1960). 11, 96–102]. The calculated functions plotted versus the angle of specimen tilt are compared with the relative intensities measured on random specimens.
