TRMM Ground Validation Radar Site Rain Type Map L2 1 hour 2 km V7 (TRMM_2A54) at GES DISC

'Radar Site Convective/Stratiform Map', is an instantaneous map in Cartesian coordinates with a 2 km resolution. At single radar sites, the map covers an area of 300 km x 300 km. For the multiple radar site in Texas, the map covers a region of 724 km x 568 km, and in Florida 512 km x 704 km. The map identifies the surface precipitation as convective or stratiform. 

A key component of the TRMM project is the Ground Validation (GV) effort which consists of collecting data from ground-based radar, rain gauges and disdrometers. The data is quality-controlled, and then validation products are produced for comparison with TRMM satellite products.

The four primary GV sites are:

+ Darwin, Australia; 
+ Houston, Texas; 
+ Kwajalein, Republic of the Marshall Islands;
+ Melbourne, Florida. 

A significant effort is also being supported at NASA Wallops Flight Facility (WFF) and vicinity to provide high quality, long-term measurements of rain rates (via a network of rain gauges collocated with National Weather Service gauges), as well as drop size distributions (DSD) using a variety of instruments, including impact-type Joss Waldvogel, laser-optical Parsivel, as well as two-dimensional video disdrometers.  DSD measurements are also being collected at Melbourne and Kwajalein using Joss-Waldvogel disdrometers.

LAT Background Models

The Galactic model is a spatial and spectral template. The model for the Galactic diffuse emission was developed using spectral line surveys of HI and CO (as a tracer of H2) to derive the distribution of interstellar gas in Galactocentric rings. Infrared tracers of dust column density were used to correct column densities in directions where the optical depth of HI was either over or under-estimated. The model of the diffuse gamma-ray emission was then constructed by fitting the gamma-ray emissivities of the rings in several energy bands to the LAT observations.

Transcription profiling of human peripheral blood to development gene expression signatures for practical radiation biodosimetry

To further development of our gene expression approach to biodosimetry we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes with the potential to distinguish radiation dose across an exposure range relevant for medical decision-making in a radiological emergency. Human peripheral blood from healthy donors was irradiated ex vivo and a 74-gene consensus signature was identified that distinguished between four radiation doses (0.5 2 5 and 8 Gy) and control samples. The same set of genes separated samples by exposure level at both six and 24 hours after treatment with overlap evident only at the highest two doses (5 and 8 Gy). Expression of five genes (CDKN1A FDXR SESN1 BBC3 and PHPT1) from this signature was quantified in the same RNA samples by real-time PCR confirming low variability between donors as well as the predicted radiation response pattern. Experiment Overall Design: Radiation induced gene expression in human blood was measured at 6 and 24 hours after exposure to doses of 0 0.5 2 5 and 8 Gy g-rays. Five independent experiments were performed at each time (6 or 24 hours) using different donors for each experiment

International Space Station flight project EXTREMOPHILES

The International Space Station (ISS) is a unique habitat for humans and microorganisms. Here, we report the results of the ISS experiment EXTREMOPHILES, including the analysis of microbial communities from several areas aboard at three time points. We assess microbial diversity, distribution, functional capacity and resistance profile using a combination of cultivation-independent analyses (amplicon and shot-gun sequencing) and cultivation-dependent analyses (physiological and genetic characterization of microbial isolates, antibiotic resistance tests, co-incubation experiments). We show that the ISS microbial communities are highly similar to those present in ground-based confined indoor environments and are subject to fluctuations, although a core microbiome persists over time and locations. The genomic and physiological features selected by ISS conditions do not appear to be directly relevant to human health, although adaptations towards biofilm formation and surface interactions were observed. Our results do not raise direct reason for concern with respect to crew health, but indicate a potential threat towards material integrity in moist areas.

Medaka Osteoclast

During space flight bone mineral density is decreased by the influence of osteoclast activation which molecular mechanism is expectantly investigated. In the study of medaka bone development we investigated the system of vertebra formation and firstly identified the presence of osteoclasts in medaka. Moreover osteoclast rsorbing activity was affected by hypergravity indicating the possibility that we can investigate the effect of microgravity on osteoclasts in space. To find this effect we examine the alteration of osteoclast activity under microgravity with the histological analysis or the expression analysis by RNA in-situ hybridization. Furthermore since we have succeeded the establishment of the medaka osteoclast-specific transgenic lines we perform the in-vivo imaging analyses for gene expression and cell mobility. Finally to examine the gravity sensing system we employ tooth and bone as the high density organs which are highly sensitive to gravity and perform the histological analysis and the gene expression analysis of such gravity-sensitive tissues at surrounding pharyngeal teeth and supporting bone.

Gene expression profiling in human fibroblast after low-LET irradiation

Exposure to radiation provokes cellular responses controlled in part by gene expression networks. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs which mostly regulate gene expression by degrading the messages or inhibiting translation. Here we investigated changes in miRNA expression patterns after low (0.1 Gy) and high (2.0 Gy) doses of X-ray in human fibroblasts. At early (0.5 h) and late (6 and 24 h) time points irradiation caused qualitative and quantitative differences in the down-regulation of miRNA levels including miR-92b 137 660 and 656. A transient up-regulation of miRNAs was observed after 2 h post-irradiation following high doses of radiation including miR-558 and 662. MicroRNA levels were inversely correlated with targets from mRNA and proteomic profiling after 2.0 Gy of radiation. MicroRNAs miR-579 608 548-3p and 585 are noted for targeting genes involved in radioresponsive mechanisms such as cell cycle checkpoint and apoptosis. We suggest here a model in which miRNAs may act as hub regulators of specific cellular responses immediately down-regulated so as to stimulate DNA repair mechanisms followed by up-regulation involved in suppressing apoptosis for cell survival. Taken together miRNAs may mediate signaling pathways in sequential fashion in response to radiation and may serve as biodosimetric markers of radiation exposure. Overall design: The gene expression patterns in human fibroblasts after 2.0 Gy of low-LET radiation was determined at 2 and 24 hrs post-irradiation time in technical triplicates. Control non-irradiated samples were also prepared in triplicates.

RAD51 Interconnects Between DNA Replication DNA Repair and Immunity

RAD51 a multifunctional protein plays a central role in DNA replication and homologous recombination repair and is known to be involved in cancer development. We identified a novel role for RAD51 in innate immune response signaling. Defects in RAD51 lead to the accumulation of self-DNA in the cytoplasm triggering a STING-mediated innate immune response after replication stress and DNA damage. Our data suggest that in addition to playing roles in homologous recombination-mediated DNA double-strand break repair and replication fork processing RAD51 is also implicated in the suppression of innate immunity. Thus our study reveals a previously uncharacterized role of RAD51 in initiating immune signaling placing it at the hub of new interconnections between DNA replication DNA repair and immunity. Overall design Gene expression analysis of WT and sh RAD51 HT1080 cells was carried out before and after 1 Gy of high LET Fe particle radiation.

Mouse muscle LC-MSMS upon weightlessness

Upon weightlessness and microgravity deleterious effects on the neurosensory and neurovestibular systems haematological changes and deconditioning of musculoskeletal cardiovascular and cardiopulmonary functions have been reported. In particular loss of muscle mass and strength are triggered by weightlessness in humans during space flights that is similarly observed as a result of physical inactivity conditions and aging on Earth. However skeletal muscle tissue is of paramount importance for health maintenance (e.g. being essential to locomotion heat production and metabolism). To better prevent or eventually treat microgravity-induced muscle atrophy its underlying mechanisms have first to be characterized in detail. Using cutting-edge quantitative proteomics the aim of the present study was therefore to get an in depth view of the molecular regulations triggered by space conditions in skeletal muscles of mice during the 30-day flight of the BION-M1 biosatellite. As muscles differing in their fiber type composition appear to respond differently to microgravity (see above) we characterized here the differential response of the soleus extensor digitorum longus and vastus lateralis muscles.

"Proteome profiling of the exhaled breath condensate after long-term spaceflights"

"The aim of the study was to analyze exhaled breath condensate (EBC) proteome changes due to the effects of spaceflight factors. All the protocols were approved at the Institute of Biomedical Problems – Russian Federation State Scientific Research Center in the frame of Protocon experiment. EBC samples were collected by commercial devices RTube one month before flight (background) at the Yu. A. Gagarin Research and Test Cosmonaut Training Center, immediately after landing of the landing modules in the field (R0), and on the seventh day after landing as a part of medical examination (R+7). Semi-quantitative label-free proteomic analysis of 13 EBC samples collected from 5 Russian cosmonauts before and after long-term (169–199 days) spaceflights were performed and resulted in 164 different proteins. The highest number of proteins was detected in EBC after landing (R0). Pathways enrichment analysis via GO database large group of proteins that take part in keratinization processes (CASP14, DSG1, DSP, JUP, and etc). Nine proteins were KRT2, KRT9, KRT1, KRT10, KRT14, DCD, KRT6C, KRT6A, KRT5 were detected in all groups (background, R0, R+1). A two-sample Welch’s t-test identified the significant changing of KRT2 and KRT9 levels after landing. Enrichment analysis via KEGG database revealed significant participation (2,07E-06) of detected proteins in pathogenic E. coli infection (ACTG1, TUBA1C, TUBA4A, TUBB, TUBB8, YWHAZ). Presumably, presents of this proteins can associated with changing of cosmonauts’ microbial composition. Thus EBC can be used for noninvasive monitoring of health status and respiratory tract pathologies during the spaceflight. The obtained data are important for the development of medicine in extreme situations."

PHM 2008 Challenge

This dataset describes the degradation of an aircraft engine. The dataset was used for the prognostics challenge competition at the International Conference on Prognostics and Health Management (PHM08). The challenge is still open for the researchers to develop and compare their efforts against the winners of the challenge in 2008.

Data sets consist of multiple multivariate time series. Each data set is further divided into training and test subsets. Each time series is from a different aircraft engine – i.e., the data can be considered to be from a fleet of engines of the same type. Each engine starts with different degrees of initial wear and manufacturing variation which is unknown to the user. This wear and variation is considered normal, i.e., it is not considered a fault condition. There are three operational settings that have a substantial effect on engine performance. These settings are also included in the data. The data are contaminated with sensor noise.
