The role of water bridge on gas adsorption and transportation mechanisms in organic shale.

This work introduces and discusses the impacts of the water bridge on gas adsorption and diffusion behaviors in a shale gas-bearing formation. The density distribution of the water bridge has been analyzed in micropores and meso-slit by molecular dynamics. Na+ and Cl- have been introduced into the system to mimic a practical encroachment environment and compared with pure water to probe the deviation in water bridge distribution. Additionally, practical subsurface scenarios, including pressure and temperature, are examined to reveal the effects on gas adsorption and diffusion properties, determining the shale gas transportation in realistic shale formation. The outcomes suggest carbon dioxide (CO2) usually has higher adsorption than methane (CH4) with a water bridge. Increasing temperature hinders gas adsorption, density distribution decreases in all directions. Increasing pressure facilitates gas adsorption, particularly as a bulk phase in the meso-slit, whereas it restricts gas diffusion by enhancing the interaction strength between gas and shale. Furthermore, ions make the water bridge distributes more unity and shifts to the slit center, impeding gas adsorption onto shale while encouraging gas diffusion. This study provides updated guidelines for gas adsorption and transportation characteristics and supports the fundamental understanding of industrial shale gas exploration and transportation.

Simultaneous Detection of Micro-RNAs by a Disposable Biosensor via the Click Chemistry Connection Strategy.

Simultaneous detection of multiple breast cancer-associated miRNAs significantly raises the accuracy and reliability of early diagnosis. In this work, disposable carbon fiber paper serves as the biosensing interface, linking DNA probes via click chemistry to efficiently capture targets and signals efficiently. DNA probes have multiple recognition domains that trigger a cascade reaction through the helper probes and targets, resulting in two signals output. The signals are centrally encapsulated in the pore of the MIL-88(Fe)-NH2. The signal carriers are directed by signal probes to the recognition domains that correspond to the DNA probes. The biosensor is selective and stable, and it can quantify miRNA-21 and miRNA-155 simultaneously with detection limits of 0.64 and 0.54 fmol/L, respectively. Furthermore, it demonstrates satisfactory performance in tests conducted with normal human serum and cell lysate. Overall, this method makes a satisfactory exploration to realize an inexpensive and sensitive biosensor for multiple biomarkers.

Giant Effect of CO2 Injection on Multiphase Fluid Adsorption and Shale Gas Production: Evidence from Molecular Dynamics.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) injection in unconventional gas-bearing shale reservoirs is a promising method for enhancing methane recovery efficiency and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions. The majority of methane is adsorbed within the micropores and nanopores (≤50 nm) of shale, which possess extensive surface areas and abundant adsorption sites for the sequestration system. To comprehensively discover the underlying mechanism of enhanced gas recovery (EGR) through CO2 injection, molecular dynamics (MD) provides a promising way for establishing the shale models to address the multiphase, multicomponent fluid flow behaviors in shale nanopores. This study proposes an innovative method for building a more practical shale matrix model that approaches natural underground environments. The grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) method elucidates gas adsorption and sequestration processes in shale gas reservoirs under various subsurface conditions. The findings reveal that previously overlooked pore slits have a significant impact on both gas adsorption and recovery efficiency. Based on the simulation comparisons of absolute and excess uptakes inside the kerogen matrix and the shale slits, it demonstrates that nanopores within the kerogen matrix dominate the gas adsorption while slits dominate the gas storage. Regarding multiphase, multicomponent fluid flow in shale nanopores, moisture negatively influences gas adsorption and carbon storage while promoting methane recovery efficiency by CO2 injection. Additionally, saline solution and ethane further impede gas adsorption while facilitating displacement. Overall, this work elucidates the substantial effect of CO2 injection on fluid transport in shale formations and advances the comprehensive understanding of microscopic gas flow and recovery mechanisms with atomic precision for low-carbon energy development.

Highly efficient, selective, and stable photocatalytic methane coupling to ethane enabled by lattice oxygen looping.

Light-driven oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) for multi-carbon (C2+) product evolution is a promising approach toward the sustainable production of value-added chemicals, yet remains challenging due to its low intrinsic activity. Here, we demonstrate the integration of bismuth oxide (BiOx) and gold (Au) on titanium dioxide (TiO2) substrate to achieve a high conversion rate, product selectivity, and catalytic durability toward photocatalytic OCM through rational catalytic site engineering. Mechanistic investigations reveal that the lattice oxygen in BiOx is effectively activated as the localized oxidant to promote methane dissociation, while Au governs the methyl transfer to avoid undesirable overoxidation and promote carbon─carbon coupling. The optimal Au/BiOx-TiO2 hybrid delivers a conversion rate of 20.8 millimoles per gram per hour with C2+ product selectivity high to 97% in the flow reactor. More specifically, the veritable participation of lattice oxygen during OCM is chemically looped by introduced dioxygen via the Mars-van Krevelen mechanism, endowing superior catalyst stability.

Time sequence variation of incoherent and coherent random laser based on positive replica of abalone shell.

Besides the scattering structures, the energy transfer (ET) process in the gain medium plays a significant role in the competition between coherent (comprising strongly coherent components) and incoherent (consisting of weakly coherent or "hidden" coherent components) modes of random lasers. In this study, bichromatic emission random lasers were successfully created using polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) replicas with grooved structures that imitate the inner surface of abalone shells as scattering substrates. The influence mechanism of the ET process from the monomer to dimer in the Rhodamine 640 dye on the competition of random laser modes was thoroughly investigated from both spectral and temporal dimensions. It was confirmed that the ET process can reduce the gain of monomers while amplifying the gain of dimers. By considering the dominant high-efficiency ET processes, an energy transfer factor associated with the pump energy density was determined. Notably, for the first time, it was validated that the statistical distribution characteristics of the time sequence variations in the coherent random laser generated by dimers closely resemble a normal distribution. This finding demonstrates the feasibility of producing high-quality random number sequences.

A Fluorescent Organic Probe for Naked-Eye Detection of Chloromethanes.

An organic fluorescent probe (OFP-TAR) with a propeller-like structure was designed and synthesized. The photoluminescence of OFP-TAR in solution exhibited a significant red shift with the increase of solvent polarity, enabling a transition of fluorescence emission from blue (445 nm) to yellow (540 nm). The organic thin-film materials based on OFP-TAR/PMMA exhibit significant color changes upon exposure to CH2Cl2, CHCl3, and CCl4, with their maximum fluorescence wavelengths measured at 445, 471, and 494 nm respectively. The device facilitates the visual detection of chloromethanes and is capable of enduring more than 7 cycles of testing. These materials can also be prepared as binary-coded microarray data storage devices or applied in the field of anti-counterfeiting. The quantum yields of guest-loaded crystals CH2Cl2@OFP-TAR, CHCl3@OFP-TAR and CCl4@OFP-TAR are observed as 19.13%, 8.79%, and 0.83% respectively, which are consistent with the tendency of OFP-TAR in CH2Cl2 (47.30%), CHCl3 (34.27%) and CCl4 (3.10%). The fluorescence properties of OFP-TAR, OFP-TAR/PMMA, guest-loaded and guest-free crystals provided insights into the special response mechanism of OFP-TAR towards different chloromethanes.

Cobalt/Salicylaldehyde-Enabled C-H Alkoxylation of Benzamides with Secondary Alcohols under Solvothermal Conditions.

C-O bond formation via C-H alkoxylation remains a challenge, especially coupling with a secondary alcohol, due to its low activity and sterically encumbered property. Here, we report a general and effective cobalt-catalyzed oxidative cross-coupling of benzamides with secondary alcohols via C-H alkoxylation reaction under solvothermal conditions, enabled by a salicylaldehyde/cobalt complex. The protocol features easy operation without additives, broad substrate scope, and excellent functional tolerance. The applicability is proven by the gram-scale synthesis and modification of natural products.

Enzyme and Pathway Engineering for Improved Betanin Production in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Betanin is a water-soluble red-violet pigment belonging to the betacyanins family. It has become more and more attractive for its natural food colorant properties and health benefits. However, the commercial production of betanin, typically extracted from red beetroot, faces economic and sustainability challenges. Microbial heterologous production therefore offers a promising alternative. Here, we performed combinatorial engineering of plant P450 enzymes and precursor metabolisms to improve the de novo production of betanin in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Semirational design by computer simulation and molecular docking was used to improve the catalytic activity of CYP76AD. Alanine substitution and site-directed saturation mutants were screened, with a combination mutant showing an approximately 7-fold increase in betanin titer compared to the wild type. Subsequently, betanin production was improved by enhancing the l-tyrosine pathway flux and UDP-glucose supply. Finally, after optimization of the fermentation process, the engineered strain BEW10 produced 134.1 mg/L of betanin from sucrose, achieving the highest reported titer of betanin in a shake flask by microbes. This work shows the P450 enzyme and metabolic engineering strategies for the efficient microbial production of natural complex products.

Hyaluronic acid nanoparticles for targeted oral delivery of doxorubicin: Lymphatic transport and CD44 engagement.

The oral delivery of doxorubicin (DOX), an anti-cancer drug, encounters multiple hurdles such as limited gastrointestinal permeability, P-glycoprotein-mediated efflux, brief intestinal residence, and rapid degradation. This study introduced a novel approach utilizing hyaluronic acid (HA)-grafted fatty acid monoglycerides (HGD) to encapsulate DOX, forming HGD-DOX nanoparticles, aimed at enhancing its oral bioavailability. Drug encapsulated by HGD provided several advantages, including extended drug retention in the gastrointestinal tract, controlled release kinetics, and promotion of lymphatic absorption in the intestine. Additionally, HGD-DOX nanoparticles could specifically target CD44 receptors, potentially increasing therapeutic efficacy. The uptake mechanism of HGD-DOX nanoparticles primarily involved clathrin-mediated, caveolin-mediated and macropinocytosis endocytosis. Pharmacokinetic analysis further revealed that HGD significantly prolonged the in vivo residence time of DOX. In vivo imaging and pharmacodynamic studies indicated that HGD possessed tumor-targeting capabilities and exhibited a significant inhibitory effect on tumor growth, while maintaining an acceptable safety profile. Collectively, these findings position HGD-DOX nanoparticles as a promising strategy to boost the oral bioavailability of DOX, offering a potential avenue for improved cancer treatment.

The GA and ABA signaling is required for hydrogen-mediated seed germination in wax gourd.

BACKGROUND: Hydrogen gas (H2), a novel and beneficial gaseous molecule, plays a significant role in plant growth and development processes. Hydrogen-rich water (HRW) is regarded as a safe and easily available way to study the physiological effects of H2 on plants. Several recent research has shown that HRW attenuates stress-induced seed germination inhibition; however, the underlying modes of HRW on seed germination remain obscure under non-stress condition. RESULTS: In this current study, we investigated the possible roles of gibberellin (GA) and abscisic acid (ABA) in HRW-regulated seed germination in wax gourd (Benincasa hispida) through pharmacological, physiological, and transcriptome approaches. The results showed that HRW application at an optimal dose (50% HRW) significantly promoted seed germination and shortened the average germination time (AGT). Subsequent results suggested that 50% HRW treatment stimulated GA production by regulating GA biosynthesis genes (BhiGA3ox, BhiGA2ox, and BhiKAO), whereas it had no effect on the content of ABA and the expression of its biosynthesis (BhiNCED6) and catabolism genes (BhiCYP707A2) but decreased the expression of ABA receptor gene (BhiPYL). In addition, inhibition of GA production by paclobutrazol (PAC) could block the HRW-mediated germination. Treatment with ABA could hinder HRW-mediated seed germination and the ABA biosynthesis inhibitor sodium tungstate (ST) could recover the function of HRW. Furthermore, RNA-seq analysis revealed that, in the presence of GA or ABA, an abundance of genes involved in GA, ABA, and ethylene signal sensing and transduction might involve in HRW-regulated germination. CONCLUSIONS: This study portrays insights into the mechanism of HRW-mediated seed germination, suggesting that HRW can regulate the balance between GA and ABA to mediate seed germination through ethylene signals in wax gourd.

High-efficiently utilizing micro-nano ozone bubbles to enhance electro-peroxone process for rapid removal of trace pharmaceutical contaminants from hospital wastewater.

The electro-peroxone (EP) process encounters two inherent challenges in wastewater treatment: sluggish O2/O3 transfer and substantial ozone waste. To overcome these limitations, we introduced micro-nano bubbles (MNBs) aeration to enhance O2/O3 dissolution and diffusion, ultimately aiming to improve the removal of trace pharmaceutical contaminants from hospital wastewater. In the MNBs aeration system, the ozone transfer coefficient ranging from 0.536 to 0.265 min-1, significantly surpassing that of conventional aeration (0.220 to 0.090 min-1) by approximately 2 to 4.5 times. Consequently, the EP process under MNBs aeration significantly enhanced ozone-resistant ibuprofen (IBU) removal, achieving a removal rate of 98.4 ± 1.5 %, far exceeding the 47.3 ± 4.7 % observed with conventional aeration. This significant improvement was attributed to the heightened production of hydroxyl radicals (•OH), reaching 0.97 × 10-9 M s, compared to only 0.28 × 10-9 M s in conventional aeration. The mechanism behind the enhanced •OH production in the MNBs-EP process relied primarily on two factors: improved O2/O3 dissolution due to high internal pressure/large surface and enhanced O3/H2O2 activation from high collapse energy. These factors together contributed to the robust oxidation capability of the MNBs-EP system. As a result, over 97 % removal efficiency was achieved for five representative pharmaceutical pollutants (sulfamethoxazole, ribavirin, norfloxacin, tetracycline and ampicillin) in just 1 min. Furthermore, when applied to real hospital wastewater, the MNBs-O3-E treatment system reduced all 15 detected trace pharmaceutical compounds to below 10 ng L-1 and achieved 14 types of pollutants with removal rates of over 85 % within 15 min, resulting in an ultrahigh total removal rate of 98.6 %, from an initial total concentration of 2108 ng L-1 to less than 30 ng L-1. Thus, micro-nano aeration endowed the EP process as a promising advanced oxidation system for rapid and highly-effective removal of trace pharmaceutical contaminants from hospital wastewater.

Phillyrin and its metabolites treat pulmonary embolism by targeting PLCß3 to inhibit platelet activation.

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Lian Qiao (LQ), the dried fruit of Forsythia suspensa (Thunb.) Vahl, is a well-documented traditional Chinese medicine known for its detoxifying and heat-clearing properties. Clinically, compounds containing LQ are widely used to treat thrombotic diseases, indicating that it may have antithrombotic effects. However, its exact mechanism of action remains unknown. AIM OF THE STUDY: This study aimed to verify the antithrombotic effect of LQ and further explore the material basis and target mechanism of its antithrombotic effect using various biological methods. MATERIALS AND METHODS: An epinephrine-collagen-thrombin-induced mouse model of acute pulmonary embolism (APE) was established to study the effects of LQ on thrombus development. A UPLC/Q/TOF-MS screening and identification system based on the inhibition of platelet aggregation and Ca2+ antagonism was established to determine the pharmacodynamic components of LQ that inhibit platelet activation. The inhibitory effect of active ingredients on platelet activation, and the determination of the target of their inhibitory effect on platelet activation have been studied using chemical proteomics. Furthermore, based on the structure and function of the target protein, a multidisciplinary approach was adopted to analyze the molecular mechanism of active ingredient binding to target proteins and to evaluate the effects of active ingredients on the downstream signaling pathways of target proteins. RESULTS: LQ showed significant anticoagulant effects in APE model mice. Phillyrin and phillygenin were the antiplatelet-activating components of LQ. PLCß3 was identified as a target for inhibiting platelet activation by phillyrin and its metabolites. The mechanism underlying the effect involves phillyrin and its metabolites inhibiting PLCß3 activity by blocking the binding of PLCß3 to Gαq through non-covalently targeting the ASN260 of PLCß3, thus inhibiting the downstream Gαq-PLCß3-Ca2+ signaling pathway, effectively hindering platelet activation and therefore playing an anticoagulant role. CONCLUSION: This study not only proposes and validates the antithrombotic effect of LQ for the first time but also finds that phillyrin and phillygenin are the main pharmacological substances through which LQ exerts antithrombotic activity and reveals a novel mechanism by which they exert antiplatelet activity by directly targeting and inhibiting PLCß3 activity. These findings significantly contribute to our understanding of the therapeutic potential of phillyrin and provide important clues for the discovery and development of new antiplatelet drugs.

Cellular Scale Curvature in Bioceramic Scaffolds Enhanced Bone Regeneration by Regulating Skeletal Stem Cells and Vascularization.

Critical-sized segmental bone defects cannot heal spontaneously, leading to disability and significant increase in mortality. However, current treatments utilizing bone grafts face a variety of challenges from donor availability to poor osseointegration. Drugs such as growth factors increase cancer risk and are very costly. Here, we report a porous bioceramic scaffold that promote bone regeneration via solely mechanobiological design. Two types of scaffolds with high versus low pore curvatures were created using high precision 3D printing technology to fabricate pore curvatures radius in the 100s of microns. While both were able to support bone formation, the high curvature pores induced higher ectopic bone formation and increased vessel invasion. Scaffolds with high curvature pores also promoted faster regeneration of critical-sized segmental bone defects by activating mechanosensitive pathways. High curvature pore recruited skeletal stem cells and type H vessels from both the periosteum and the marrow during the early phase of repair. High curvature pores had increased survival of transplanted GFP-labelled skeletal stem cells (SSCs) and recruited more host SSCs. Taken together, our bioceramic scaffolds with defined micron-scale pore curvatures demonstrate a mechanobiological approach for orthopedic scaffold design. This article is protected by copyright.

Laser regulated mixed-phase TiO2 for electrochemical overall nitrogen fixation.

Traditional oxide electrocatalytic materials encounter significant challenges associated with sluggish reaction kinetics and formidable energy barriers for NH intermediates formation in electrocatalytic nitrogen fixation. The implementation of phase control emerges as an effective strategy to address these challenges. Herein, leveraging the energy localization of laser, this work achieved precise phase control of TiO2. In the optimized material system, the rutile phase TiO2 facilitates nitrogen adsorption, while the anatase phase TiO2 provides proton sources and active oxygen species. The synergistic effect of the two phases effectively enhances the electrocatalytic activity for nitrogen reduction and oxidation, with an ammonia yield reaching âˆ¼22.3 µg h-1 cm-2 and a nitrate yield reaching âˆ¼60.9 µg h-1 cm-2. Furthermore, a coupled dual-electrode system with mixed-phase titanium dioxide as both the anode and cathode successfully achieved a breakthrough in electrochemical overall nitrogen fixation. This laser precision control strategy for manipulating phase sites lays the groundwork for designing efficient catalysts for energy conversion and even energy storage nanomaterials.

Natural variation in BnaA07.MKK9 confers resistance to Sclerotinia stem rot in oilseed rape.

Sclerotinia stem rot (SSR), caused by the necrotrophic fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, is one of the most devastating diseases for several major oil-producing crops. Despite its impact, the genetic basis of SSR resistance in plants remains poorly understood. Here, through a genome-wide association study, we identify a key gene, BnaA07. MKK9, that encodes a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase that confers SSR resistance in oilseed rape. Our functional analyses reveal that BnaA07.MKK9 interacts with BnaC03.MPK3 and BnaC03.MPK6 and phosphorylates them at the TEY activation motif, triggering a signaling cascade that initiates biosynthesis of ethylene, camalexin, and indole glucosinolates, and promotes accumulation of H2O2 and the hypersensitive response, ultimately conferring resistance. Furthermore, variations in the coding sequence of BnaA07.MKK9 alter its kinase activity and improve SSR resistance by ~30% in cultivars carrying the advantageous haplotype. These findings enhance our understanding of SSR resistance and may help engineer novel diversity for future breeding of oilseed rape.

Activation of BK channels prevents diabetes-induced osteopenia by regulating mitochondrial Ca2+ and SLC25A5/ANT2-PINK1-PRKN-mediated mitophagy.

Osteopenia and osteoporosis are among the most common metabolic bone diseases and represent major public health problems, with sufferers having an increased fracture risk. Diabetes is one of the most common diseases contributing to osteopenia and osteoporosis. However, the mechanisms underlying diabetes-induced osteopenia and osteoporosis remain unclear. Bone reconstruction, including bone formation and absorption, is a dynamic process. Large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ channels (BK channels) regulate the function of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts. Our previous studies revealed the relationship between BK channels and the function of osteoblasts via various pathways under physiological conditions. In this study, we reported a decrease in the expression of BK channels in mice with diabetes-induced osteopenia. BK deficiency enhanced mitochondrial Ca2+ and activated classical PINK1 (PTEN induced putative kinase 1)-PRKN/Parkin (parkin RBR E3 ubiquitin protein ligase)-dependent mitophagy, whereas the upregulation of BK channels inhibited mitophagy in osteoblasts. Moreover, SLC25A5/ANT2 (solute carrier family 25 (mitochondrial carrier, adenine nucleotide translocator), member 5), a critical inner mitochondrial membrane protein participating in PINK1-PRKN-dependent mitophagy, was also regulated by BK channels. Overall, these data identified a novel role of BK channels in regulating mitophagy in osteoblasts, which might be a potential target for diabetes-induced bone diseases.

Therapeutic targets of formononetin for treating prostate cancer at the single-cell level.

Prostate cancer is one of the serious health problems of older male, about 13% of male was affected by prostate cancer. Prostate cancer is highly heterogeneity disease with complex molecular and genetic alterations. So, targeting the gene candidates in prostate cancer in single-cell level can be a promising approach for treating prostate cancer. In the present study, we analyzed the single cell sequencing data obtained from 2 previous reports to determine the differential gene expression of prostate cancer in single-cell level. By using the network pharmacology analysis, we identified the therapeutic targets of formononetin in immune cells and tissue cells of prostate cancer. We then applied molecular docking to determine the possible direct binding of formononetin to its target proteins. Our result identified a cluster of differential gene expression in prostate cancer which can serve as novel biomarkers such as immunoglobulin kappa C for prostate cancer prognosis. The result of network pharmacology delineated the roles of formononetin's targets such CD74 and THBS1 in immune cells' function of prostate cancer. Also, formononetin targeted insulin receptor and zinc-alpha-2-glycoprotein which play important roles in metabolisms of tissue cells of prostate cancer. The result of molecular docking suggested the direct binding of formononetin to its target proteins including INSR, TNF, and CXCR4. Finally, we validated our findings by using formononetin-treated human prostate cancer cell DU145. For the first time, our result suggested the use of formononetin for treating prostate cancer through targeting different cell types in a single-cell level.

Regulatory path for soil microbial communities depends on the type and dose of microplastics.

To reveal the feedbacks and regulating mechanisms of microplastic types and doses on microbial community, a microcosm experiment was carried out with two non-degradable microplastics [polyethylene (PE) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC)] and four biodegradable microplastics [poly(butylene succinate) (PBS), polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), poly(butyleneadipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT), and polypropylene carbonate (PPC)] at different levels (1 %, 7 %, and 28 %). As a result, the content of total carbon (TC), soil organic carbon (SOC), and microbial biomass carbon (MBC) (expect MBC in PBS soil) increased with increasing doses of microplastics, and increased at the lowest PE dose rate. Biodegradable microplastics created a more active ecological niche while enriching more pathogens than non-degradable microplastics. Structural equation modeling indicated that microbial diversities were in a type-dependent assembly, whereas microbial compositions were more profoundly affected by the microplastic doses, ultimately. The standardized total effect coefficient of microplastic types on bacterial and fungal diversities was - 0.429 and - 0.282, and that of doses on bacterial and fungal compositions was 0.487 and 0.336, respectively. Both microplastic types and doses significantly impacted pH, electrical conductivity, total nitrogen, TC, SOC, and MBC, subsequently inhibiting microbial diversities and stimulating microbial compositions with particular pathways. The results provide a comprehensive understanding for evaluating the potential risk of microplastics.

Atmospheric wet and dry phosphorus deposition in Lake Erhai, China.

Lake Erhai is a potentially phosphorus (P)-limited lake and its water quality may have been affected by atmospheric P deposition. However, there have been few studies on atmospheric P deposition in this lake. In this study, we established five wet deposition monitoring sites and two dry deposition monitoring sites around Lake Erhai to quantify the wet and dry deposition of total phosphorus (TP), including dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP), dissolved organic phosphorus (DOP) and particulate phosphorus (PP) from July 2022 to June 2023. Wet deposition fluxes of P species were collected by automatic rainfall collection instrument, and dry deposition fluxes were estimated using airborne concentration measurements and inferential models. The results reveal that among the different P components, DOP had the highest contribution (50%) to wet TP deposition (average all sites 12.7 ± 0.7 mg P m2/yr), followed by PP (40%) and DIP (10%). Similarly, DOP (51%) was the major contributor to dry TP deposition (average two sites 2.4 ± 0.9 mg P m2/yr), followed by DIP (35%) and PP (14%). Wet deposition dominated the annual total TP deposition (wet plus dry), accounting for approximately 83%. The key seasons for dry deposition were spring and autumn, which accounted for 64% of the annual total dry TP deposition. In comparison, wet deposition was significantly higher in the summer, accounting for 73% of the annual total wet TP deposition. The results of the potential source contribution function and concentration-weighted trajectories analysis indicate that local source emission and long-range transport from surrounding cities jointly exerted a substantial influence on aerosol P concentrations, particularly in the eastern and northwestern regions of the lake. These findings provide a comprehensive understanding of the different P components in atmospheric deposition, which is beneficial for developing effective strategies to manage the P cycle in Lake Erhai.
