Gathering Souls: Jesuit Missions in the Spanish Empire
Authors: Coello de la Rosa Alexandre 
Published: August 2023

AbstractThis article examines two different missionary areas where the Society of Jesus was sent to evangelise the native population: the Andean territories previously under Inca domination and the remote Mariana Islands in the Pacific Rim. The gathering of “other barbarians” living outside “civilised” societies was a tool of early modern colonisers within Europe and beyond. The English did so in sixteenth-century Ireland and the Spanish began reducing the so-called American Indians to new settlements in New Spain and Peru. In this paper, I want to compare the methods used to concentrate the natives of the Viceroyalty of Peru, where the Jesuits actively collaborated, with the borderland mission of the Marianas, where the Jesuits worked as parishioners of a much less sophisticated people: the CHamoru.1 As I will demonstrate, this policy of gathering souls was not an isolated one, but part and parcel of a universalistic principle of spreading God's word that was irremediably embedded in colonial structures of coercion and political control in the Americas and Asia-Pacific.
A FIFTEENTH-CENTURY OTTOMAN SOLUTION TO THE LIAR PARADOX BY ḪAṬĪBZĀDE MUḤYIDDĪN
Authors: Daşdemir Yusuf 
Published: August 2023

AbstractThis paper deals with a solution to the infamous liar paradox, usually known in the Arabic literature as Maġlaṭat al-ǧaḏr al-aṣamm. The solution is raised by a fifteenth-century Ottoman treatise that is attributed, among others, to Ḫaṭībzāde Muḥyiddīn Efendī. The paper also compares it with the solution by the contemporary Persian philosopher, Ǧalāl al-Dīn al-Dawānī. The short treatise devoted to the paradox is one of the few works by Ottomans on the subject and it comprehensively addresses the paradox in its two forms. An analysis of the solution offered by the treatise to the paradox, the paper aims to bring Ottoman discussions of the liar to the attention of contemporary scholarship and contribute to filling the obvious gap in the literature on the paradox in Islamic thought.
Sensitivity of TamArk™ grain sorghum and monocot weed species to ACCase- and ALS-inhibiting herbicides

AbstractOnly a limited number of herbicides are available to provide postemergence (POST) control of selective monocot weeds in grain sorghum crops. The herbicides currently labeled for use with grain sorghum have strict use restrictions, low efficacy on johnsongrass, or weed resistance issues. To introduce a new effective herbicide mode of action for monocot control, multiple companies and universities have been developing herbicide-resistant grain sorghum that would allow producers to use herbicides that inhibit either acetolactate synthase (ALS) or acetyl coenzyme A carboxylase (ACCase) for POST monocot control. An experiment was conducted in Fayetteville, AR, in 2020 and 2021, to determine the effectiveness of two ALS-inhibiting herbicides and nine ACCase-inhibiting herbicides on TamArk™ grain sorghum, conventional grain sorghum, and problematic monocot weed species. Grain sorghum and monocot weeds (johnsongrass, broadleaf signalgrass, barnyardgrass, and Texas panicum) were sprayed when TamArk grain sorghum reached the 2- to 3-leaf stage. TamArk grain sorghum was tolerant of all ACCase-inhibiting herbicides tested, exhibiting ≤10% injury at all evaluation timings, except clethodim and sethoxydim, and had no resistance to the ALS-inhibiting herbicides that were evaluated. Additionally, all ACCase inhibitors except diclofop and pinoxaden controlled all monocots tested by >91% at 28 d after application (DAA). Conversely, the two ALS inhibitors, imazamox and nicosulfuron, provided ≤81% control of broadleaf signalgrass 28 DAA but still controlled all other monocots by >95%. TamArk grain sorghum has low sensitivity to multiple ACCase-inhibiting herbicides and thus provides an effective POST option for monocot weed control. In addition, unwanted volunteer TamArk plants can be controlled with cledthodim, sethoxydim, nicosulfuron, or imazamox. Although the ALS-inhibiting herbicides imazamox and nicosulfuron were not useful on TamArk grain sorghum, they are effective options for monocot control on Igrowth™ and Inzen™ grain sorghum crops, respectively.
Interference of Brassicaceae weeds (Brassica tournefortii, Rapistrum rugosum, and Sisymbrium thellungii) in chickpea

AbstractAfrican mustard (Brassica tournefortii Gouan), turnipweed [Rapistrum rugosum (L.) All.], and African turnipweed (Sisymbrium thellungii O.E. Schulz) are common broadleaf weeds in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) crops, particularly under dryland region conditions in eastern Australia. Information on crop yield losses and the seed production potential for these weeds in chickpea are limited. Field studies were conducted in the winter seasons of 2020 and 2021 in eastern Australia with different densities of the three weeds (B. tournefortii, R. rugosum, and S. thellungii) in chickpea. Based on the sigmoidal model, chickpea yield was reduced by 50% at 11 plants m−2 of B. tournefortii. Based on hyperbolic models, a 50% yield reduction of chickpea occurred at 5 and 25 plants m−2 of R. rugosum and S. thellungii, respectively. Based on the linear model, B. tournefortii, R. rugosum, and S. thellungii produced a maximum of 448,000, 206,700, and 869,400, seeds m−2, respectively. At chickpea harvest, the low seed retention (<55%) of B. tournefortii and S. thellungii suggests limited opportunities for harvest weed seed control, and the seed rain of these weeds may enrich the weed seedbank in the soil. At crop harvest, the seed retention of R. rugosum was found to be greater than 90%, suggesting that it is a suitable candidate for harvest weed seed control. This study demonstrated that R. rugosum could cause a greater reduction in chickpea yield compared with B. tournefortii and S. thellungii. Furthermore, restricting seed rain of B. tournefortii and S. thellungii by not allowing the plants to produce seeds is recommended to reduce their weed seedbanks in the soil. The information generated from this study could aid in strengthening integrated weed management in chickpea.

AbstractNo-till planting organic soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] into roller-crimped cereal rye (Secale cereale L.) can have several advantages over traditional tillage-based organic production. However, suboptimal cereal rye growth in fields with large populations of weeds may result in reduced weed suppression, weed–crop competition, and soybean yield loss. Ecological weed management theory suggests that integrating multiple management practices that may be weakly effective on their own can collectively provide high levels of weed suppression. In 2021 and 2022, a field experiment was conducted in central New York to evaluate the performance of three weed management tactics implemented alone and in combination in organic no-till soybean planted into both cereal rye mulch and no mulch: (1) increasing crop seeding rate, (2) interrow mowing, and (3) weed electrocution. A nontreated control treatment that did not receive any weed management and a weed-free control treatment were also included. Cereal rye was absent from two of the five fields where the experiment was repeated; however, the presence of cereal rye did not differentially affect results, and thus data were pooled across fields. All treatments that included interrow mowing reduced weed biomass by at least 60% and increased soybean yield by 14% compared with the nontreated control. The use of a high seeding rate or weed electrocution, alone or in combination, did not improve weed suppression or soybean yield relative to the nontreated control. Soybean yield across all treatments was at least 22% lower than in the weed-free control plot. Future research should explore the effects of the tactics tested on weed population and community dynamics over an extended period. Indirect effects from interrow mowing and weed electrocution should also be studied, such as the potential for improved harvestability, decreased weed seed production and viability, and the impacts on soil organisms and agroecosystem biodiversity.

AbstractThe positive Ti isotope versus SiO2‐content correlation in igneous rocks reflects the fractional crystallization of Ti‐bearing oxide minerals. However, Ti isotope variations of subduction‐related igneous rocks indicate that the Ti isotope compositions of their mantle sources are heterogeneous and additional mineral phases may promote Ti isotope fractionation. We have determined the Ti isotope composition of well‐characterized subduction‐related basalts, andesites and boninites. Samples from the Solomon Islands, the Troodos ophiolite in Cyprus, and Cape Vogel in Papua New Guinea show small but resolvable variations that may be related to differences in their mantle sources. Specifically, the δ49Ti of boninites (+0.109‰ to +0.168‰) is slightly higher than that of tholeiites (−0.027‰ to +0.111‰) from the same localities (Troodos in Cyprus and Cape Vogel in Papua New Guinea). Modeling suggests the partial melting of progressively depleted mantle sources where residual Cr‐spinel plays a greater role in controlling the Ti budget during partial melting. More pronounced variations in δ49Ti are clearly linked to the fractional crystallization of Ti‐oxides: Samples from Rabaul Volcanic Complex (New Britain, Papua New Guinea) show increasing δ49Ti (up to +0.373‰) with increasing Ti/V and decreasing Dy/Yb. Fractional crystallization models suggest that oxide minerals and amphibole are needed to sufficiently increase the δ49Ti of these magmas. Our study highlights that the combination of diagnostic trace element patterns and Ti isotope compositions in subduction‐related igneous rocks can be a powerful tool to constrain petrogenetic processes and to discriminate between different crystallizing mineral phases.
Development of a Deep‐Water Carbonate Ion Concentration Proxy Based on Preservation of Planktonic Foraminifera Shells Quantified by X‐Ray CT Scanning
Authors: Iwasaki S. , Kimoto K. , Kucera M. 
Published: August 2023

AbstractThe quantitative and objective characterization of dissolution intensity in fossil planktonic foraminiferal shells could be used to reconstruct past changes in bottom water carbonate ion concentration. Among proxies measuring the degree of dissolution of planktonic foraminiferal shells, X‐ray micro‐Computed Tomography (CT) based characterization of apparent shell density appears to have good potential to facilitate quantitative reconstruction of carbonate chemistry. However, unlike the well‐established benthic foraminiferal B/Ca ratio‐based proxy, only a regional calibration of the CT‐based proxy exists based on a limited number of data points covering mainly low‐saturation state waters. Here we determined by CT‐based proxy the shell dissolution intensity of planktonic foraminifera Globigerina bulloides, Globorotalia inflata, Globigerinoides ruber, and Trilobatus sacculifer from a collection of core top samples in the Southern Atlantic covering higher saturation states and assessed the reliability of CT‐based proxy. We observed that the CT‐based proxy is generally controlled by deep‐water Δ[] like the B/Ca proxy, but its effective range of Δ[] is between −20 and 10 µmolkg−1. In this range, the CT‐based proxy appears directly and strongly related to deep‐water Δ[], whereas we note that in some settings, there appears to be a secondary influence on B/Ca which we suggest may be due to elevated alkalinity from carbonate dissolution in sediments. On the other hand, the CT‐based proxy is affected by supralysoclinal dissolution in areas with high productivity. Like the B/Ca proxy, the CT‐based proxy requires species‐specific calibration, but the effect of species‐specific shell difference in susceptibility to dissolution on the proxy is small.
Comment on “Moist Static Energy Transport Trends in Four Global Reanalyses: Are They Downgradient?” by Clark et al. (2022)

AbstractGiven the key role that atmospheric heat transport plays in Earth's climate system, efforts to document its changes over the satellite era are valuable. Clark et al. (2022, https://doi.org/10.1029/2022GL098822) calculated trends in atmospheric heat transport among four reanalysis data sets and found substantial disagreements between data sets. However, after accounting for the lack of mass‐conservation in reanalysis data sets, we find much smaller magnitude trends, with much better agreement among reanalyses. This highlights the importance of mass corrections when calculating atmospheric heat transport.

AbstractHydroxylated isoprenoid glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers (OH‐GDGTs) preserved in marine sediments are thought to be controlled by sea surface temperature (SST). However, water depth may also exert a significant influence on OH‐GDGTs. Here, we investigated sedimentary OH‐GDGTs in the Kermadec and Atacama trench regions (2,560–9,560 m water depth). Sedimentary OH‐GDGTs in hadal trenches were dominated by OH‐GDGT‐0 (72 ± 8%), potentially reflecting an adaption of source organisms to ambient cold deep water. This result, combined with global data set, revealed that the predominance of OH‐GDGT‐0 is a ubiquitous phenomenon in deep‐sea sediments, leading to a considerable underestimation of RI‐OH′‐derived SSTs. By considering both SST and water depth effects, we developed more accurate OH‐GDGT‐based paleothermometers for both shallow regions and the global ocean, encompassing the full‐ocean‐depth range. Our findings highlight the importance of accounting for the effect of water depth on OH‐GDGTs and provide improved tools for reconstructing paleo‐SSTs.
Skillful Multiyear Prediction of the Kuroshio and Gulf Stream Jets and Eddy Activity
Authors: Kido Shoichiro , Nonaka Masami , Miyazawa Yasumasa 
Published: August 2023

AbstractThe Kuroshio and Gulf Stream (GS), Northern Hemisphere warm ocean currents, have narrow bands of intense jets and vigorous eddies. While the importance of them in regulating physical and biological ocean systems and climate has been increasingly recognized, the operational predictability of year‐to‐year variations in these jets and eddies has not been quantitatively assessed yet. Through a series of experiments using an eddy‐resolving dynamical ocean forecasting system, here we show that observed year‐to‐year variations in the intensities of the jets and eddies in the Kuroshio Extension and GS regions can be skillfully predicted up to a lead time of about 2 years. Sources of predictability mostly come from initial ocean memories, and variations in local atmospheric conditions play a secondary role. Our results demonstrate that the observed multiyear variations in ocean jets and eddies in these regions are operationally predictable when ocean models are properly initialized with sufficient spatial resolution.

AbstractIn a previous study, we investigated whether reanalysis moist static energy (MSE) transport trends over the 1980 through 2018 period are consistent (a) with each other and (b) with the finding that these transport trends are downgradient, as found in climate models. Regarding point (a), our conclusion was that MSE transport trends were dependent on the reanalysis data set. However, Cox et al. (2023) correctly point out that the reanalysis dependence is reduced dramatically if a barotropic mass flux correction is applied at a monthly mean timescale prior to computing the MSE transport trends. In our reply below, we revisit point (b) after applying this correction. We find that even after the correction, reanalysis MSE transport trends are not downgradient nor poleward in the Northern Hemisphere extratropics. However, reanalysis does show a compensation between dry static and latent energy transport trends, which has been shown in climate models historically.
Targeted Balloon Observations of Stratosphere‐To‐Troposphere Transport From a Mesoscale Convective System
Authors: Auth Rachael M. , Homeyer Cameron R. 
Published: August 2023

AbstractStratosphere‐troposphere exchange (STE) is important to the global radiation budget because it is capable of inducing significant changes in trace greenhouse gases such as ozone and water vapor. In the extratropics, stratosphere‐to‐troposphere—or downward—transport (STT) dominates and is routinely driven by upper‐troposphere jet circulations and cyclones. Tropopause‐overshooting convection provides a more rapid STE pathway, but STT in convection is less understood and targeted observations are limited to a handful of fortuitous aircraft encounters. In this study, we seek to improve understanding of STT near thunderstorm anvils using balloon observations of ozone, ground‐based radar observations, visible satellite imagery, and model output. Radar and satellite imagery are used to identify and ultimately target convection driving the “ozone‐wrapping” process. Herein, observations from a single mesoscale convective system in central Oklahoma are reported. A significant ozone enhancement 40%–60% greater than background concentrations in the free troposphere was observed during the balloon ascent underneath and within the anvil of the storm. Backwards particle trajectories were calculated to rule out other sources of this feature such as long‐range transport of stratospheric air and smoke pollution from nearby wildfires. To our knowledge, this work presents the first targeted ozonesonde launch and sampling of this STT process.
Permafrost Wetlands Are Sources of Dissolved Iron and Dissolved Organic Carbon to the Amur‐Mid Rivers in Summer

AbstractDissolved iron (dFe) transported by the Amur River greatly contributes to phytoplankton growth in the Sea of Okhotsk. Nevertheless, there has been little research on the source of dFe to rivers, especially in the Amur‐Mid Basin, which is situated in a sporadic permafrost area. In the Amur‐Mid Basin, permafrost generally exists in wetlands in flat valleys, and these permafrost wetlands could be a source of dFe to rivers. To assess the importance of permafrost wetlands for dFe export, we conducted a local survey on land and soil characteristics of wetlands, and moreover analyzed the chemical composition (dFe, dissolved organic carbon [DOC], pH, and electrical conductivity [EC]) of 24 rivers with different watershed sizes in summer. As a result of local survey, the thickly accumulated peat soils in the permafrost wetland were almost saturated and rich in organic matter from the surface to a greater depth near the permafrost table. In addition, the coverage of such permafrost wetlands in watersheds showed significant positive correlations with dFe (r2 = 0.67, p = 1.7e−6) and DOC (r2 = 0.48, p = 1.8e−4) and a negative correlation with EC (r2 = 0.52, p = 7.7e−5). The dFe concentration was also correlated well with DOC concentration (r2 = 0.68, p = 7.3e−7) but not correlated with pH and watershed area. These findings are the first to indicate that permafrost wetlands in the Amur‐Mid Basin considerably contribute to dFe and DOC export to rivers, and their coverage primarily determines riverine dFe and DOC concentrations in summer.

AbstractAims To develop an optimal clinical and laboratory protocol for the fabrication of 3D printing dentures.Design A prospective feasibility study across three UK dental schools.Material and methods Each patient received one conventional and one 3D-printed denture. Both dentures were constructed using the same impression, jaw registration and wax trial denture. Variables investigated included methods of digitisation of the impression and optional use of a 3D-printed baseplate for jaw registration.Results Clinicians strongly preferred 3D-printed baseplates. Patients felt that conventional and printed dentures were similar in retention and stability. More patients favoured conventional dentures over 3D-printed dentures in terms of comfort.Discussion It is feasible to combine conventional clinical work with digital techniques to produce 3D-printed dentures. 3D-printed baseplates offer a cost-effective alternative to conventional bases at the jaw registration stage. Challenges were faced in tooth positioning and managing occlusion, particularly where roots required adjustment.Conclusion 3D printing is suitable for producing baseplates for jaw registration blocks and wax trial insertions. It is feasible to produce 3D-printed dentures using conventional clinical techniques for impressions, jaw registration and wax trial insertion. The workflow used in this study for 3D-printed dentures is not superior to conventional dentures. Further work is required.

Abstract
Background
Glioblastoma (GBM), one of the most lethal tumors, exhibits a highly infiltrative phenotype. Here, we identified transcription factors (TFs) that collectively modulate invasion-related genes in GBM.

Methods
The invasiveness of tumorspheres (TSs) were quantified using collagen-based 3D invasion assays. TF activities were quantified by enrichment analysis using GBM transcriptome, and confirmed by cell-magnified analysis of proteome imaging. Invasion-associated TFs were knocked down using siRNA or shRNA, and TSs were orthotopically implanted into mice.

Results
After classifying 23 patient-derived GBM TSs into low- and high-invasion groups, we identified active TFs in each group—PCBP1 for low invasion, and STAT3 and SRF for high invasion. Knockdown of these TFs reversed the phenotype and invasion-associated-marker expression of GBM TSs. Notably, MRI revealed consistent patterns of invasiveness between TSs and the originating tumors, with an association between high invasiveness and poor prognosis. Compared to controls, mice implanted with STAT3- or SRF-downregulated GBM TSs showed reduced normal tissue infiltration and tumor growth, and prolonged survival, indicating a therapeutic response.

Conclusions
Our integrative transcriptome analysis revealed three invasion-associated TFs in GBM. Based on the relationship among the transcriptional program, invasive phenotype, and prognosis, we suggest these TFs as potential targets for GBM therapy.
