Calving laws and where to find them

Journal of Glaciology
Calving from tidewater glaciers and ice shelves is an important component of global mass balance and may contribute significantly to future sea-level rise.

Viscoelastic Modeling of Calving Processes at Antarctic Ice Shelves [PDF]

, 2017
In this thesis viscoelastic material models are established to investigate the nature of continuous calving processes at Antarctic ice shelves. Physics-based descriptions of calving require appropriate fracture criteria to separate icebergs from the remaining ice shelf.

Effects of Prepartum Supplementation and Yeast Fermentation Products on the Progesterone‐Modulated Transfer of Passive Immunity in Bos indicus Cows

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Inadequate colostrum intake increases risks of calf morbidity and mortality. This study investigated the effects of prepartum and early postpartum supplementation and yeast fermentation products on late‐pregnant Bos indicus cows, and the role of progesterone in mediating passive immunity transfer.

Calving of Fuerza Aérea Glacier (Greenwich Island, Antarctica) observed with terrestrial laser scanning and continuous video monitoring

Journal of Glaciology, 2016
A short-term series of quantitative observations of calving activity of Fuerza Aérea Glacier (Greenwich Island, the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica) was conducted in order to test new methods of monitoring calving.

Hydrological and Kinematic Precursors of the 2017 Calving Event at the Petermann Glacier in Greenland Observed from Multi-Source Remote Sensing Data

Remote Sensing, 2021
Both a decrease of sea ice and an increase of surface meltwater, which may induce ice-flow speedup and frontal collapse, have a significant impact on the stability of the floating ice shelf in Greenland.

Pharmacokinetics of Long‐Acting Ampicillin and Its Impact on the Gut Microbiome and Resistome in Rhesus Macaques (Macaca mulatta)

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Injectable antimicrobials with documented prolonged dosing intervals (> 48 h) for use in rhesus macaques are sparse. The objective of our study was to assess the pharmacokinetics, urine excretion, and effects on gut microbiome and resistome of intramuscular administered long‐acting formulation of ampicillin (Albipen LA) in macaques.

Calving rate linearly dependent on sub-aerial terminus cliff height at tidewater glaciers around the Antarctic Peninsula

Annals of Glaciology
Calving is the process of ice loss through the breaking of ice from a glacier’s terminus. Ice-flow models describe calving in various ways, although no consensus exists on the optimal approach.

Conspecific cueing or cooperative feeding?—Foraging stable flies are visually attracted to conspecific flies

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
In two‐choice laboratory bioassays, food‐deprived and CO2‐stimulated stable flies were offered paired landing platforms that were baited or not (control) with conspecific flies. The presence of conspecifics prompted the attraction and landing of foraging stable flies.

Late Quaternary ice-ocean interactions in central West Greenland [PDF]

, 2011
A greater knowledge of the interactions between the Greenland Ice Sheet and climate is critical to understanding the possible impacts of future global warming, including ice sheet contribution to global sea-level rise and perturbations to ocean ...

Forecasting Climate Change Using a Multivariate Cointegrated System

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A cointegrated vector equilibrium correction model of key climate variables including sea surface temperature, ocean heat content, Arctic sea‐ice extent and sea‐level change is built, driven by radiative forcing in which a stochastic trend arises due to anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases.
