The aim of our study was to analyse parameters effecting calving difficulty of Charolais and Limousin cows at the Educational and Research Centre Logatec. Data from 492 calves, born between 1995 and 2006 were included in the analysis.

The Effect of Submarine Melting on Calving From Marine Terminating Glaciers
Submarine melting and iceberg calving are two important processes that control mass loss from the terminus of tidewater glaciers. There have been significant efforts to quantify the effect of submarine melting on glacier calving, but controversy remains ...

. Iceberg calving accounts for between 30 % and 60 % of net mass loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet, which has intensified and is now the single largest contributor to global sea level rise in the cryosphere.

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

Effects of geometry on the seismic wavefield of Alpine glaciers
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 ...

Distinguishing subaerial and submarine calving with underwater noise
Iceberg calving is one of the major mechanisms of ice loss from tidewater glaciers and ice sheets, but obtaining accurate estimates of ice discharge that are both continuous and accurate is a challenging task.

Comparison of four calving laws to model Greenland outlet glaciers
. Calving is an important mechanism that controls the dynamics of marine terminating glaciers of Greenland. Iceberg calving at the terminus affects the entire stress regime of outlet glaciers, which may lead to further retreat and ice flow acceleration ...

Retained placenta (RP) adversely affects postpartum productivity and reproduction in dairy cattle. Thus, methods to predict the occurrence of RP before calving would be desirable.

Toward Numerical Modeling of Interactions Between Ice-Marginal Proglacial Lakes and Glaciers
Global climate change is evidently manifest in disappearing mountain glaciers and receding and thinning ice sheet margins. Concern about contemporaneous proglacial lake development has spurred an emerging area of research seeking to quantitatively ...
