Bacterial and fungal growth on fungal necromass and its diverse components: Shared profiles and divergent constraints revealed by high‐throughput phenotyping

1. While fungal necromass is increasingly recognized as a major source of persistent carbon (C) in soils, the relative functional roles of bacteria and fungi in decomposing necromass are not fully resolved, and the processes that select for necromass decomposer communities from the broader soil microbial community are an emerging area of interest. 2. In this study, we characterized the growth of 52 bacterial and 83 fungal strains isolated from necromass and soil on 22 C substrates, including different necromass phenotypes, fungal cell wall polymers, dimers and monomers. 3. We found that the isolation habitat of the strains used in this experiment (necromass vs. soil) had no effect on the substrates they were able to use. Isolates from both microbial domains were able to grow on different labile carbon substrates, polymers and necromass phenotypes. However, fungal growth was most limited by necromass melanin content, while bacterial growth was more limited by the abundance of cell wall polysaccharides. Additionally, overall differences in substrate use between bacteria and fungi were most pronounced on polymer substrates. 4. Collectively, our results suggest that there is substantial functional overlap in necromass substrate use across microbial domains, but some notable differences in bacterial and fungal utilization of cell wall polymers, which can function as a direct energy source or a means of accessing other compounds within necromass. Future studies assessing bacteria and fungi decomposing necromass together rather than in isolation will help to uncover potential physical and chemical interactions within and between these two domains during the decay of this important source of persistent soil C.

Data sharing helps avoid “smoking gun” claims of topological milestones

Manipulating the topology of electronic bands can realize new states of matter, with possible implications for information technology. A central question is how to tell whether a topological regime has been achieved. Experiments are often guided by a prediction of a distinct and self-explanatory signal called “the smoking gun.” However, in micrometer- or nanometer-scale specimens, phenomenology can mimic the anticipated behavior without containing the exotic states. We show limited data that are consistent with the presence of four topological phenomena; by considering additional data, we identified the most likely origins of the observed patterns as trivial. Finally, we argue that the reliability of smoking gun–type claims can be greatly enhanced by releasing comprehensive datasets, discussing alternative scenarios, and disclosing the total volume of study.

ScaWL: Scaling k-WL (Weisfeiler-Lehman) Algorithms in Memory and Performance on Shared and Distributed-Memory Systems

The k-dimensional Weisfeiler-Lehman (k-WL) algorithm—developed as an efficient heuristic for testing if two graphs are isomorphic—is a fundamental kernel for node embedding in the emerging field of graph neural networks. Unfortunately, the k-WL algorithm has exponential storage requirements, limiting the size of graphs that can be handled. This work presents a novel k-WL scheme with a storage requirement orders of magnitude lower while maintaining the same accuracy as the original k-WL algorithm. Due to the reduced storage requirement, our scheme allows for processing much bigger graphs than previously possible on a single compute node. For even bigger graphs, we provide the first distributed-memory implementation. Our k-WL scheme also has significantly reduced communication volume and offers high scalability. Our experimental results demonstrate that our approach is significantly faster and has superior scalability compared to five other implementations employing state-of-the-art techniques.

kokkos-fft: A shared-memory FFT for the Kokkos ecosystem

kokkos-fft provides a unified, performance-portable interface for Fast Fourier Transforms (FFTs) within the Kokkos ecosystem (C. Trott et al., 2021). It seamlessly integrates with leading local FFT libraries including FFTW, cuFFT, rocFFT, and oneMKL. Designed for simplicity and efficiency, kokkos-fft offers a user experience akin to numpy.fft for in-place and out-of-place transforms, while leveraging the raw speed of vendor-optimized libraries. A demonstration solving 2D Hasegawa-Wakatani turbulence with the Fourier spectral method illustrates how kokkos-fft can deliver significant speedups over Python-based alternatives without drastically increasing code complexity, empowering researchers to perform high-performance FFTs simply and effectively.

A Shared Understanding and Paths Forward for Community Benefit Mechanisms: Workshop Summary Report

On October 7-8, 2024, the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory hosted an in-person workshop focused on research needs and strategies for community benefit mechanisms (CBMs) used in the deployment of renewable energy infrastructure. Community benefit mechanisms (such as community benefit agreements, funds, and donations) are used to provide increased benefits and/or mitigate negative impacts of energy development for the communities that are impacted. The workshop aimed to assess the current state of knowledge, tools, practices, and lessons learned, as well as to identify research and other work needed to improve the impact and effective implementation of CBMs. This report describes the purpose and structure of the workshop and summarizes key themes, questions, issues, and ideas that arose from the workshop.

Risks Associated with Sharing the MOSSAIC APIs

The MOSSAIC APIs contain two files which, in theory, could be used to discover information about the pathology report data from the SEER registries on which the AI models were trained. In this document, we explain the contents of these files and assess the associated risk. APPENDIX A contains a set of slides to aid in the dissemination of this information.

Sharing is Caring: A Practical Guide to FAIR(ER) Open Data Release

This is a two hour version of the FAIR(ER) tutorial we released at Barcelona 9/24. SAND2024-12152C. The only modifications were largely deletions, which don't require additional review. The one key difference that actually has changed material is in the Language section for Equitable Accessibility, which is almost word for word the same as previously approved SAND2025-04087W which is the website version of the presentation.
