Tritium has been used as a tracer in hydrogeological studies to date young groundwater. It was released in massive amounts to the atmosphere by nuclear bomb testing in the 1950’s and early 1960’s. Its activity in the atmosphere peaked around 1963-1964 and has been steadily falling since then due to its half-life of 12.32 years. On the northern hemisphere, where the atmospheric tritium concentration reached much higher levels than on the southern hemisphere, elevated tritium activities in groundwater persist, and thus can still be used to identify groundwater that has recharged during the post-bomb era.

Abstract Introduction/Objective Warthin tumor-like mucoepidermoid carcinoma(WTL- MEC) is one of the subvariant of mucoepidermoid carcinoma. It mimics the histological features of metaplastic Warthin tumors (mWTs). To investigate the clinicopathological, molecular features, and bio-behaviors of WTL-MEC, we retrospected a cohort of 29 WTL- MEC patients. Methods/Case Report The clinicopathological and microscopic data were collected. Dual-color FISH analysis was performed on paraffin-embedded sections of 29 WTL- MEC patients and 16 mWTs patients using a MAML2 break- apart probe. Whole-exome sequencing and whole transcription sequencing were performed on 3 WTL-MEC and 3 typical mucoepidermoid carcinomas (TMEC) patients. Genetic data were bioinformatically analyzed by software MuTect (v1.7), PINDEL (v0.2.5), SnpEff (v3.0), and etc. Results (if a Case Study enter NA) The cohort of WTL-MEC included 10 male and 19 female patients with a median age of 42.3 years (range, 8 to 68 years). Microscopically, the WTL-MEC lesion consisted of multi-cysts with variant shapes and sizes. The cystic spaces were lined by bi-layered and multilayered oncocytic cells. A transition zone between the bi-layered oncocytic epithelium to the multilayered oncocytic epithelium was observed in WTL-MEC. The cords of epidermoid cells and mucous cells could be found. The germinal center, extensive hyalinization, and mucus extravasation were observed. MAML2 rearrangement was identified in 29 (100%) WTL-MEC. No rearrangement was observed in mWTs by FISH. MET was the most commonly mutated gene in TMEC, and PRDM11 was the most commonly mutated gene in WTL-MEC. Twenty-nine patients were alive without recurrent at the end of the follow-up periods(5–128M). One Patient died due to the metastasis to the lung. Conclusion compared with mWTs, WTL- MEC usually presented in the young, non-smoking female. The histological feature of WTL-MEC depended mainly on the transition zone of the bi-layered oncocytic epithelium and the multilayered oncocytic epithelium. And MAML2 status can confirm the diagnosis. CRTC1-MAML2 and PRDM11 mutations appear to be the main driver event of WTL-MEC. Prognosis was usually favorable, but recurrence or metastasis may rarely occur.

<p>Mid-latitude storms are large-scale weather patterns. They involve a large range of spatial and temporal atmospheric scales of motion. Their characteristic extreme precipitation, wind gusts and high surface winds can significantly impact wind farms (e.g. shutdowns of turbines due to exceedance of cut-off wind speed) <span><span>affecting </span></span>grid performance and safety. Adequate storm forecasting, which relies on high spatial model resolution, is crucial. Traditional methods usually involve the use of limited area models (LAMs). While the performance of LAMs is generally satisfactory, challenges arise when large-scale storm structures enter near the the lateral boundaries of the LAM. In this case, insufficient update intervals of the forcing data at the lateral boundaries <!-- What does this mean exactly -->and spatial and temporal interpolation can deteriorate the storm structure that cause insufficient storm deepening. The global Model for Prediction Across Scales (MPAS) with regional mesh refinement avoids lateral boundary conditions and allows refinement with smooth transition zones. Based on a case study of storm “Christian”, MPAS’ capabilities in simulating key storm characteristics are explored in this work. Buoy measurements of sea level pressure, reanalysis and forecast products from the Climate Forecast System (CFSv2) and simulations with the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model are used to evaluate the forecast performance with respect to storm intensity, storm arrival time and storm duration. A mesh configuration with refinement from 54-km to 18-km (further referred to as variable-resolution mesh) is compared with quasi-uniform mesh configurations to examine the impact of transition zone and mesh refinement on the storm structure and forecast performance. It is found that MPAS is generally able to predict the storm intensity based on the local minimum sea level pressure, while the estimation of storm arrival time and storm duration have been negatively influenced by model drifts in MPAS and by impacts of the transition zone on the storm development in the variable-resolution configuration. <!-- Can be shortened. -->An additional low pressure system emerged in the variable-resolution mesh <!-- May need to explain this to the readers. -->whereby its presence is sensitive to model physics. The investigation highlights the importance of the transition zone design in MPAS and the need for additional strategies like data assimilation techniques to prevent model drifts for storm forecasting.</p>
