    Folders contain experimental model runs outlined in Flack-Prain et al., 2019, whereby the (i) LAI, (ii) meteorology, (iii) rooting properties, (iv) soil, and (v) leaf photosynthetic capacity for each plot were alternated to that of all other plots. Plots included in analysis are CAX04, CAX06, TAM05, TAM06, KEN01, KEN02, TAN05 (Tanguro). File names are ordered PLOT1_PLOT2 where PLOT1 is focal plot, and PLOT2 is the plot of the alternated factor. "_down" and "_up" are model runs under upper and lower LAI standard error. file headers are as follows Daily: mod_ET(mm/d) Modelled evapotranspiration mod_LE(MJ/m2/d) Modelled latent energy (latent heat flux) mod_SoilE(mm/d) Modelled soil evaporation mod_can_evap(mm/d) Modelled canopy evaporation (evaporated intercepted rainfall) Soil_WP(MPa) Weighted soil water ptential plant_resistance Plant resistance to waterflow canopy_soil_resistance Canopy weighted soil+root hydraulic resistance to water flow LSC(mmol/m2/s/Mpa) Leaf-soil conductance sapflow(mm/d) Amount of water that moves through LSC continuum mean-LAI(m2m-2) Mean Leaf Area Index Flux: Ra Autotrophic respiration Af Carbon allocated to foliage Aw Carbon alloacted to stem Ar Carbon allocated to roots Acr Carbon allocated to coarse roots Lf Litterfall from foliage Lw Litterfall from stem Lr Litterfall from roots Lcr Litterfall from coarse roots Rh1 Heterotrophic respiration (litter) Rh2 Heterotrophic respiration (soil) D Decomposition G Gross Primary Productivity neesum Net Ecosystem Exchange sumresp total_ET(mm/d) resp_main Maintenance respiration resp_growth Growth respiration resp_l Leaf maintenance respiration resp_s Stem maintenance respiration resp_r Root maintenance respiration resp_cr Coarse root maintenance respiration resp_l_g Leaf growth respiration resp_s_g Stem growth respiration resp_r_g Root growth respiration resp_cr_g Coarse root growth respiration alloc_to_labile Carbon allocated to labile Field data used in model calibration and validation can be accessed via Doughty et al., 2015.

    The Impact of Climate Change and Climate Extremes on Sugarcane Production

    We combine the Soil-Plant-Atmosphere model with detailed timeseries measurements from experimental sugarcane plots in Guangxi, China, and São Paulo State, Brazil. We first calibrated and validated modelled carbon and water cycling against field flux and biometric data. Second, we simulated sugarcane growth under the historical climate (1980-2018), and 6 future climate projections (2015-2100). From these simulations we retrieved modelled sugarcane yield, days to reach maturity, gross primary productivity (GPP), evapotranspiration, PAR incident on the canopy, leaf area index (LAI), and soil water potential (SWP). Next, to quantify the impact of individual climate drivers on sugarcane yield, we generated synthetic climate forcings. Within the historical climate dataset (1980-2018) we computed the mean value for each climate driver, for each year (i.e. temperature, CO2, precipitation, PAR and VPD). For each climate driver, we calculated the median of the annual means. We identified the annual timeseries corresponding to the median for each climate driver. For each climate projection, we substituted, one by one, the temperature, CO2, precipitation, PAR and VPD, with that of the median timeseries. We then ran the model with the new synthetic climate forcings and retrieved the yield, carbon, and water flux estimates for each alternation. For each year, under each climate projection, at each site, we calculated the difference between yield, carbon, and water flux estimates under the projected and alternated-synthetic climate to compute a ‘climate effect’ of each individual climate driver.The dataset contains a file for each site (Guangxi, China and São Paulo Brazil). For each climate scenario, and each year we include model estimates of sugarcane yield, days taken to reach maturity, gross primary productivity (GPP), evapotranspiration, PAR incident on the canopy, leaf area index (LAI), and soil water potential (SWP). Estimates labelled nominal, are those simulated under the projected climate. Estimates labelled airt, CO2, precipitation, PAR and VPD, are those generated under synthetic climate forcings where the air temperature, atmospheric CO¬2, precipitation, photosynthetically active radiation, and vapor pressure deficit were alternated to the median of the historical timeseries

    (r,r)-disynephrine ether bis(hydrogen sulfate)

    The asymmetric unit of the title compound [systematic name: (R, R)-2,4-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-N,N'-dimethyl-3-oxapentane-1,5- diammonium bis(hydrogen sulfate)], C18H26N2O32+center dot-2HSO(4)(-), contains one half-cation and one hydrogen sulfate anion. The cation has crystallographically imposed twofold symmetry with the rotation axis passing through the central ether O atom. Hydrogen bonds between the hydroxy group and amine H atoms of the cation to two hydrogen sulfate anions link the three ions in a ring motif. A three-dimensional network is accomplished by additional O-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds between the anions and by N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds between the cations. Disorder with equally occupied sites affects the H-atom position in the anio

    Charge transfer complexes and radical cation salts of chiral methylated organosulfur donors

    No full text
    The single crystal X-ray structure of the all-axial conformer of the (R,R,R,R) enantiomer of the chiral donor tetramethyl-BEDT-TTF (TM-BEDT-TTF) was described and compared to the all-equatorial conformer. (S,S,S,S)-Tetramethyl-BEDT-TTF formed crystalline 1 : 1 complexes with TCNQ and TCNQ-F4, as well as a THF solvate of the TCNQ complex. Donors bis((2S,4S)-pentane-2,4-dithio)tetrathiafulvalene and (ethylenedithio)((2S,4S)-pentane-2,4-dithio)tetrathiafulvalene, which contain seven-membered rings bearing chirally oriented methyl groups, only formed complexes with TCNQ-F4. The TCNQ-F4 complexes contain planar organosulfur systems, in contrast to the TCNQ complexes in which there is minimal charge transfer. A variety of crystal packing modes were observed. Electrocrystallization experiments with both enantiomers and the racemic form of tetramethyl-BEDT-TTF afforded mixed valence radical cation salts with the AsF6 and SbF6 anions formulated as (TM-BEDT-TTF)2XF6 (X = As, Sb). Electrical conductivity was only found in one charge transfer complex, while the radical cation salts are all semiconducting

    Novel enantiopure bis(pyrrolo)tetrathiafulvalene donors exhibiting chiral crystal packing arrangements

    No full text
    Two novel enantiopure bis(pyrrolo[3,4-d])tetrathiafulvalene derivatives, substrates for preparing chiral conducting materials, show chiral crystal packing arrangements in which successive layers are rotated in accordance with an exact or approximate 43 axis. The corresponding donors containing fused dihydropyrrolegroups, and thus four more hydrogen atoms, form stacks along a crystal axis
