title: Alternate wetting and drying enhanced the yield of a triple-cropping rice paddy of the Mekong Delta

description: In the Mekong Delta, triple rice cropping is widely spread. The rice cultivation is characterized by a short cropping period and nearly year-round flooding. Putting the soil under an oxidative condition through changing the water regimes during cropping periods might have a potential to increase the rice yield. To test this potential, an experiment was conducted at a typical triple-cropping farmer’s alluvial paddy in a central area of the delta for five years, 15 consecutive cropping seasons. We adopted an intermittent irrigation technique known as alternate wetting and drying (AWD). Under AWD, we irrigated to a depth of 5 cm above the soil surface only when the field water level dropped to 15 cm below the soil surface, with some exceptions. As a control, we prepared a treatment under which the paddy was continuously flooded (CF) except 2 weeks before expected harvest. We also prepared three straw treatments: all raw straw return, all straw-ash return, and no straw return to the paddy. For other field management, we adopted locally conventional methods. Results show that the straw treatment effects on the rice yield were not significant. For water treatments, the soil redox potential under AWD remained higher, in most cases, than that under CF; and the rough rice yield, harvest index, and percentage of ripened grains under AWD respectively became 8.9%, 4.4%, and 3.5% higher (<i>p</i> &lt; 0.01) than those under CF, with lower N contents in rice grains and 43% less irrigation water use. The increase in rice yield by AWD was found with an increase in harvest index and a decrease in aboveground biomass and nitrogen content, indicating that it was due to the promotion of nutrient translocation in rice by AWD. The effect of AWD was enhanced particularly in the winter–spring cropping season, during which the nighttime temperature was the lowest. This piece of evidence that the rice yield of the delta can be increased simply by introducing AWD has the potential to encourage farmers to take voluntary actions that will also lead to a reduction in methane emission from rice paddies.

title: Supplementary Material for: Laparoscopic versus open approach for Siewert-type II/III adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction: A systematic review and meta-analysis

description: Introduction Due to the specific location, the potential advantages of laparoscopic gastrectomy (LG) compared with open gastrectomy (OG) for Siewert II/III adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) remain uncertain. The current study aimed to compare the short- and long-term outcomes of LG versus OG in treating Siewert type II/III adenocarcinoma. Methods We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Medline (hosted by Ovid), and the Cochrane Library for publications, till July 2022 and then used the Revman5.3 software for statistical analysis. Results Ten publications from 10 medical centres were included, with 1516 cases from the LG group and 1219 from the OG group. Meta-analysis results showed that the LG group was superior to the OG group in intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, lymph nodes retrieved, time to ambulation, time to first flatus, time to diet, 5-year overall survival, and 5-year disease-free survival. There was no significant difference between the two groups in operative time, overall complications, proximal margin, distal margin, pulmonary infection, anastomotic leakage, mortality, ileus, or absolute infection. Conclusions Compared with OG, LG is associated with better surgical and long-term outcomes in Siewert type II/III AEG. LG is a safe and feasible option for treating Siewert type II/III AEG. However, studies with large sample sizes, long follow-up periods, and rigorous designs are needed for verification.

title: Speciation of phosphorus accumulated in fertilized cropland of Aichi prefecture in Japan with different soil properties by sequential chemical extraction and P K-edge XANES

description: Fertilizer-derived P is accumulated in cropland soils and their phytoavailability is variable depending on the speciation of P, which is affected by soil properties. In this study, we aimed to clarify how soil properties affect the speciation of P accumulated in fertilized soils. Soil samples were collected from the cultivated soil layers of 137 vegetable fields in Aichi prefecture, Japan. The speciation of soil P was evaluated by Truog method, sequential extraction by acetic acid, NH<sub>4</sub>F, and NaOH (Sekiya method), P K-edge X-ray adsorption near-edge structure (XANES). Phosphorus accumulated in cropland consisted predominantly of the inorganic form. Phosphorus extracted by the Truog method and acetic acid was correlated with exchangeable Ca and total C. The XANES analysis indicated that the P species extracted by Truog and acetic acid were associated with Ca, while those extracted by acetic acid also included crystalized calcium phosphate with higher crystallinity than CaHPO<sub>4</sub>, for example, hydroxyapatite. Due to the high application of P fertilizer and manure with lime, P was accumulated as calcium phosphate except for soils with relatively high contents of oxalate extractable Al and Fe. The amounts of NH<sub>4</sub>F-extracted P were higher in soils with larger amounts of oxalate extractable Al and Fe. Based on the XANES analyses, the P species extracted by NH<sub>4</sub>F were associated with Al and Fe, which is inconsistent with the operational definition of NH<sub>4</sub>F-soluble species. The P in soils extracted by NaOH was correlated with various soil properties, especially with clay content. The P species extracted by NaOH could not be identified. Our results revealed that the important factors controlling available P associated with Ca were total C and exchangeable Ca, whereas those controlling the P extracted by NH<sub>4</sub>F were oxalate extractable Al and Fe, because this fraction of P was associated with Al and Fe.

description: Methods of phytoplankton processing. Samples were preserved with Lugol’s (acidified iodine) solution and processed using the Utermöhl (1958) method. Phytoplankton biomass was calculated from counts of cells or colonies using a Nikon Eclipse Ti-S inverted microscope at x200 and x400 magnification. Preserved sample (3 ml) was settled overnight. Identification and measurements took place in the course of counting. Counting units are independent (single) algal cells, colonies or filaments/trichomes. Biovolumes of algal cells, colonies and/or filaments were calculated using assigned geometric shapes dimensions, and converted to biomass assuming the specific density of 1 g cm-3 in accordance with Edler (1979).

title: Parkes observations for project P574 semester 2022OCTS_03

description: We request time to observe 260 pulsars on a regular basis in order to provide the accurate ephemerides necessary for the detection and characterisation of gamma-ray pulsars with the Fermi satellite. The main science goals are to increase the number of known gamma-ray pulsars (both radio loud and radio quiet), to determine accurate pulse profiles, and to characterise their high energy (phase-resolved) spectra. In the radio, the observations will also allow us to investigate: neutron stars and pulsar emission via detecting glitches and determining pulse timing parameters; and the ISM via measuring and monitoring dispersion measures, Faraday rotation measures, and scintillation. To date, we are (co-)authors on over 95 papers arising from the collaboration and P574 data, including four which use UWL observations. The data have contributed to the PhD theses of students from Bordeaux, Manchester, Oxford, Stanford, and Swinburne.

The data from some PULSE@Parkes observations are used to support the space missions, other observations supplement the P456 Pulsar Timing Array project and the remainder were chosen in order to make a detailed analysis of pulsar timing irregularities and intermittency.
