There are several papers concluding that the free long waves are generated to compensate the discontinuity of the forced long waves across the harbour (or channel) mouth. But the linear waves should be continuous across the mouth and the forcing terms in the free surface condition also should be continuous. Therefore, there is no reason for the forced waves to have discontinuity across the mouth.In the present paper, we re-analyze the problem of Bowers (1977) in more exact way and show that the numerical discontinuity of the forced waves comes from the Gibbs phenomenon of the Fourier analysis. Therefore this discontinuity has no physical meaning and do not generate the free long waves.

A 19-year-old male presented with fatigue and dyspnea on exertion. He was diagnosed with acute T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia. After following the Group for Research on Adult Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (GRAALL) 2003 protocol that incorporates L-asparaginase (L-Asp) treatment, blood glucose levels became elevated for more than one year and insulin secretion was depleted. Anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) and anti-islet antigen 2 (IA-2) antibody levels were both positive, which is rare. The patient's HLA genotype was sensitive for type 1 diabetes. L-Asp can cause transient hyperglycemia as a side effect. However, cases with the anti-GAD antibody have not been reported in L-Asp-induced diabetes. In summary, L-Asp-induced continuous hyperglycemia might be associated with a type 1 diabetes-related HLA genotype through elevations of anti-GAD and anti-IA-2 antibodies.
