Storm 2.0.rar


A choking storm gradually envelopes the Al Mazrah landscape, you may be familiar with the encroaching wall of vapor from your time in Verdansk and Caldera. This time, however, expect variations within the Circle Collapse. One possible occurance may be the result of extreme weather pattern anomalies resulting in the safe zone splitting into multiple Circles throughout a match that reconverge into a single safe zone as the match gets closer to the final circle.

Generally speaking all DoW SS mods are extracted and placed in the "Dawn of War Soulstorm" folder.NOTE:1) You do *not* need to download this (or objectives) separately for the Unification mod.2) The Unification mod will install itself via an installer. Just follow the installer instructions and do *not* extract the Uni 7z files.


*all* dow mods unless explicitly stated otherwise are extracted into soulstorm folder, in a way that does not just create a folder with the archive name.Do note that unification 5.90 and forward does not need this mod. It has it incorporated.


Schematic diagram illustrating inflammatory signaling cascades implicated in the pathophysiology of COVID-19-induced cytokine storm. (A) The viral RNA (dsRNA) is sensed by the cytoplasmic RNA sensors retinoic-acid inducible gene I (RIG-I) and melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) which recruit adaptors, including mitochondrial antiviral-signaling protein (MAVS) leading to the activation of the transcription factor nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) and the production of type I Interferons and a series of pro-inflammatory cytokines. (B) Toll-like receptors (TLRs) pathway: Upon binding of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), TLRs are dimerized, which leads to recruiting myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 (MyD88) and the TIR domain-containing adaptor-inducing IFN-β (TRIF). Then, MyD88 binds with IL-1 receptor-associated kinase 4 (IRAK4) resulting in the activation of IRAK1. Subsequently, the protein tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) and TAK1 are activated which further stimulate two signaling cascades; nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) pathway and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. The IκB kinase (IKK) complex consists of the catalytic subunits; IKKα and IKKβ and the regulatory subunit NEMO. TAK1 binds to the IKK complex inducing phosphorylation of IKKβ allowing NF-κB translocation into the nucleus to switch on the transcription machinery of a cluster of pro-inflammatory cytokines. TAK1 also induces stimulation of MAPK family members which mediates activation of AP-1 family transcription factors that further induces expression of diverse inflammatory mediators. Furthermore, the MyD88-dependent pathway can trigger phosphorylation of IRF7 that in turn induces expression of type 1 interferon (IFN). The TRIF-dependent pathway is utilized by only a few TLRs, such as TLR3 and TLR4. Upon recruitment and binding of TRIF to TLRs, it initiates the TRAF3-dependent signaling cascade which leads to phosphorylation of IRF3 that translocates to the nucleus commencing generation of type 1 IFN-β. (C) Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK/STAT) pathway. Interferons (IFN-γ) trigger activation of the JAK/STAT pathway. The activated JAKs consequently phosphorylate the major substrates, STATs prompting their dimerization and then translocation into the nucleus to stimulate the expression of antiviral interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs). (D) IL-6 trans signal transduction pathway. IL-6 binds to soluble interleukin 6 receptor (sIL-6R) and subsequently bind to gp130. The trans signaling pathway stimulates JAK/STAT pathway and MAPK cascade, and recruits the macrophages. Figure generated in Biorender ( ).


Schematic diagram summarizing mechanistic (pro/anti-inflammatory) targets that influence generation of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines (cytokine storm) associated with COVID-19 together with the corresponding drugs influencing each target. Pro-inflammatory targets: Receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK), Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK/STAT), Toll like receptors (TLR), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP-1), Histone deacetylases (HDAC) and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor with pyrin domain 3 (NLRP3). Anti-inflammatory targets: peroxisome proliferator activated receptors- γ (PPAR- γ), adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK), cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) and retinoic acid receptors (RAR)/retinoid receptor X (RRX). Cytokines & chemokines: Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β), interleukins (IL-1β & IL-6), macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion protein-1 (VCAM-1).

We studied seasonal movements of Thin-billed prions (Aves, Procellariiformes), breeding at the Subantarctic Falkland/Malvinas Islands, compared with those of Wilson's storm-petrels breeding in the Antarctic South Shetland Islands. The two species showed opposite migratory movements. While Wilson's storm-petrels moved to warmer waters north of the Drake Passage in winter, Thin-billed prions showed a reversed movement towards more polar waters. Carbon stable isotope ratios in recent and historical feathers indicated that poleward winter movements of Thin-billed prions were less common historically (45% in 1913-1915), and have only recently become dominant (92% in 2003-2005), apparently in response to warming sea temperatures.


Carbon stable isotope ratios and breeding sites. A. Carbon stable isotope ratios in Southern Ocean plankton and predators (fish and squid), The sample size refer to discrete species location data points. An interpolated isoscape was derived from phytoplankton data. Data points are from a review of available literature. B. Breeding sites of the two study species (KG = King George Island, South Shetlands, FI = New Island, Falkland Islands/Malvinas), distribution of isotope values from the interpolated isoscape in the study ares, and pictures of corresponding chicks. C. Stable isotope ratios of feathers representing diet during the breeding season (chick feathers and induced adult feathers) and naturally moulted adult feathers (representing the interbreeding season), showing opposite movement of Thin-billed prions and Wilson's storm-petrels during migration


We included samples of Wilson's storm-petrels Oceanites oceanicus from a breeding site at the South Shetland Islands at 62S (Fig. 1B), as a reference for the location (δ13C) and relative trophic level (δ15N). Wilson's storm-petrels feed in Antarctic waters during the chick-rearing period, and are known to migrate north in winter [9, 14].


The δ15N signatures show that Wilson's storm-petrels maintained a relatively higher trophic level over the year (Fig. 1C). δ15N was best explained by species differences (P η2 = 0.581), followed by location (represented by δ13C values: P η2 = 0.387), while time and time*species interactions were of minor importance (Table 1).


Stable isotope ratios of Thin-billed prions from wrecks. Carbon stable isotope ratios of birds found dead on beaches in winter, compared to birds sampled in the Falklands Islands in the breeding season. The dotted trendline was calculated from the breeding season birds only, but the clustered data distribution did not allow us a regression analysis. In 3B, recent and historic samples of Wilson's storm-petrels were included for comparison.


In the present study, we found that two small pelagic seabirds had contrasting migratory patterns, and that the recent distribution of moulting Thin-billed prions with predominantly poleward winter migration differed from that observed historically. The trophic level of Thin-billed prions, in contrast, remained constant over time, suggesting that prions responded to changes in their environment by moving to a different location, while any possible changes in diet would be limited to dietary sources of similar trophic level. Wilson's storm-petrel feathers showed a much smaller change in carbon isotope ratios (Fig. 2B and 3B), indicating that baseline level changes alone would not explain the observed differences in Thin-billed prions. In addition, the shift in isotope ratio in Thin-billed prions is really large, almost certainly too large to be caused by changing primary productivity.


Consistency in trophic level is also seen in the comparison between the species, where Wilson's storm-petrels maintained a relatively higher trophic level over the year (Table 1), and in historical feathers (Fig. 2B). This is consistent with observations from regurgitated food during the breeding season. Wilson's storm-petrels commonly took Antarctic krill Euphausia superba and lanternfish Electrona antarctica of 15-50 mm during summer [15], while Thin-billed prions fed predominantly on small crustaceans of 2-20 mm, mainly amphipods Themisto gaudichaudii, copepods Calanus spec., krill Euphausia lucens and lobster krill Munida gregaria[10, 16]. Thus, Thin-billed prions, although nearly four times heavier than Wilson's storm-petrels, consistently took smaller prey and fed at a lower trophic level than the storm-petrels, as reflected in lower δ15N signatures (Fig. 1C).


The observed differences in the migratory strategies between the species can most likely be explained by differences in the body size and in the abundance and distribution of their preferred prey. Wilson's storm-petrels are the smallest Antarctic endotherms at 38 g, and low winter temperatures might constrain their distribution. In winter, they scatter widely but are often observed over the Patagonian Shelf. Lanternfish (myctophiids) are the most abundant small pelagic fish in the area, with larvae occurring throughout the year [17]. As lanternfish are one of the preferred prey of Wilson's storm-petrels [15], the shelf-break zone offers good feeding opportunities for them in winter. Additionally, Wilson's storm-petrels attend feeding flocks following fisheries vessels to pick up small pieces of discards and may benefit from increased human activity [18]. 041b061a72
