TL;DR: It is suggested that, in general, zooplankton exhibit an EPA-retentive metabolism with increasing body size, whereas different taxonomic groups within the planktonic food web retain DHA differently.
Abstract: We measured concentrations of essential fatty acids (EFAs) in four size categories of planktonic organisms— seston (10‐64 mm), microzooplankton (100‐200 mm), mesozooplankton (200‐500 mm), and macrozooplankton (.500 mm)—and in rainbow trout ( Oncorhynchus mykiss) in coastal lakes. Size-dependent patterns in concentrations of specific fatty acids (FAs) are important for ecosystem function, because planktivorous fish and some invertebrates are size-selective predators. We demonstrate that the retention of individual FAs differs among the four size categories of planktonic organisms in our study systems. Changes in individual EFA concentrations within the planktonic food web were similar in all coastal lakes sampled, which indicates the generality of our findings. Although concentrations of arachidonic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), and linoleic acid increased steadily with plankton size, the concentration of a-linolenic acid decreased slightly in larger size fractions of zooplankton. Concentrations of another EFA, docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), declined sharply from mesozooplankton to the cladoceran-dominated macrozooplankton size class. Our results indicate that the retention of EFAs, as a function of plankton size, is related, in part, to the taxonomic composition of planktonic food webs. We suggest that, in general, zooplankton exhibit an EPA-retentive metabolism with increasing body size, whereas different taxonomic groups within the planktonic food web retain DHA differently. Finally, we conclude that EPA is highly retained in zooplankton, whereas in rainbow trout DHA is highly retained.

TL;DR: In this paper, a detection and attribution analysis separates the contribution of all external forcings, and shows that urbanization accounts for about one-third (0.5°C) of the total warming signal in China.
Abstract: The contribution of urbanization to warming in China has been difficult to quantify owing to the proximity of rural stations to urban areas. A novel detection and attribution analysis separates the contribution of all external forcings, and shows that urbanization accounts for about one-third (0.5 °C) of the total warming signal in China (1.4 °C).

TL;DR: The full catalog of Young Stellar Objects (YSOs) identified in the 18 molecular clouds surveyed by the Spitzer Space Telescope "cores to disks" (c2d) and "Gould Belt" (GB) Legacy surveys is presented in this paper.
Abstract: We present the full catalog of Young Stellar Objects (YSOs) identified in the 18 molecular clouds surveyed by the Spitzer Space Telescope "cores to disks" (c2d) and "Gould Belt" (GB) Legacy surveys. Using standard techniques developed by the c2d project, we identify 3239 candidate YSOs in the 18 clouds, 2966 of which survive visual inspection and form our final catalog of YSOs in the Gould Belt. We compile extinction corrected SEDs for all 2966 YSOs and calculate and tabulate the infrared spectral index, bolometric luminosity, and bolometric temperature for each object. We find that 326 (11%), 210 (7%), 1248 (42%), and 1182 (40%) are classified as Class 0+I, Flat-spectrum, Class II, and Class III, respectively, and show that the Class III sample suffers from an overall contamination rate by background AGB stars between 25% and 90%. Adopting standard assumptions, we derive durations of 0.40-0.78 Myr for Class 0+I YSOs and 0.26-0.50 Myr for Flat-spectrum YSOs, where the ranges encompass uncertainties in the adopted assumptions. Including information from (sub)millimeter wavelengths, one-third of the Class 0+I sample is classified as Class 0, leading to durations of 0.13-0.26 Myr (Class 0) and 0.27-0.52 Myr (Class I). We revisit infrared color-color diagrams used in the literature to classify YSOs and propose minor revisions to classification boundaries in these diagrams. Finally, we show that the bolometric temperature is a poor discriminator between Class II and Class III YSOs.
