Reproductive performance parameters in a large population of game-ranched white rhinoceroses (Ceratotherium simum simum) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The population of free-roaming white rhinoceroses (Ceratotherium simum) is under serious threat. Captive breeding of this species is therefore becoming more important, but this is challenging and often not successful.

Female site fidelity of the Mealy Mountain caribou herd (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in Labrador

open access: yesRangifer, 2011
The Mealy Mountain caribou population of southeastern Labrador is listed as threatened. Site fidelity - the philopatric tendency of an animal to remain in or return to the same site - has often been suspected in sedentary caribou like the Mealy Mountain,

Viscous and viscoelastic stress states at the calving front of Antarctic ice shelves

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2016
Calving mechanisms are still poorly understood and stress states in the vicinity of ice-shelf fronts are insufficiently known for the development of physically motivated calving laws that match observations.

'Calving laws', 'sliding laws' and the stability of tidewater glaciers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A new calving criterion is introduced, which predicts calving where the depth of surface crevasses equals ice height above sea level. Crevasse depth is calculated from strain rates, and terminus position and calving rate are therefore functions of ice ...

Effects of geometry on the seismic wavefield of Alpine glaciers

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2019
Passive seismology allows measurement of the structure of glaciers and ice sheets. However, most techniques used so far in this context are based on horizontally homogeneous media where parameters vary only with depth (1-D approximations), which are ...

Identification of iceberg-forming ice quakes from seismic and infrasound data

open access: yesЛëд и снег, 2021
The application of a joint method of recording seismic and infrasound signals generated during ice calving from the terminal part of the outlet glaciers to identify the process of iceberg formation is considered.

Forty-two-year frequencies of river buffaloes calving in the Terecay ranch, Venezuela

open access: yesRevista Científica, 2023
Although buffaloes are polyestrous, they exhibit a distinct seasonal variation in displaying estrus, conception rate, and calving, greatly influenced by physiological, sanitary, nutritional, management, and particularly bioenvironmental factors, such as

Effects of a Dietary L-Carnitine Supplementation on Performance, Energy Metabolism and Recovery from Calving in Dairy Cows

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
Dairy cows are metabolically challenged during the transition period. Furthermore, the process of parturition represents an energy-consuming process.
