An application of Sparse Variational Gaussian Process with Bernoulli likelihood for flood inundation risk mapping [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
As climate change intensifies, urban flooding has become a growing threat to cities worldwide, especially in low-lying, densely populated areas. Accurate flood risk prediction is essential for disaster readiness, yet it remains a challenge due to the ...

Influence of the age of the first insemination on the milk production of cows [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences, 2023
The article presents the results of milk productivity and quality indicators of milk, depending on the age of the first insemination. The results obtained showed that under the conditions of the Izhagroplem Research and Production Complex of the Izhevsk ...

Calves are socially motivated [PDF]

JDS Communications, 2022
Most dairy calves are housed individually in the first weeks and sometimes months of their lives. Lack of social interaction can negatively impact feed intake, social skills, coping abilities, and cognitive performance, but the motivation of calves to seek companionship has seldom been investigated.

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

Rangifer, 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,

Calving rates at tidewater glaciers vary strongly with ocean temperature [PDF]

, 2015
TerraSAR-X data were provided by DLR (project OCE1503), and funded by the Conoco Phillips-Lundin Northern Area Program through the CRIOS project (Calving Rates and Impact on Sea level). A.L. and S.B.

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

Annals 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.

A physically based calving model applied to marine outlet glaciers and implications for the glacier dynamics [PDF]

, 2010
We present results from numerical ice-flow models that include calving criteria based on penetration of surface and basal crevasses, which in turn is a function of longitudinal strain rates near the glacier front.

Effects of geometry on the seismic wavefield of Alpine glaciers

Annals 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 ...

Processes of crevasse formation and the dynamics of calving glaciers : a study at Breiđamerkurjökull [PDF]

, 2009
A new model proposed by Benn et al. (2006, 2007) explains the dynamics of calving glaciers based on a new sliding law and a calving criterion modified from a crevasse depth model. In this thesis three key elements of this model are tested: 1) the role

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

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