Differential code biases (DCBs) are important parameters in GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) applications such as positioning as well as ionosphere remote sensing. In comparison to the conventional approach, which utilizes ground-based observations and parameterizes global ionosphere maps together with DCBs, a method is presented for GPS and BeiDou system (BDS) satellite DCB estimation...

Constraints to maximal productivity from twinning in beef cattle include increased incidence of dystocia and retained placenta, longer postpartum interval, and lower conception rate. Incidence and cause(s) of the shorter gestation length and of the increased retained placenta and dystocia associated with twinning were evaluated for 3,370 single and 1,014 twin births produced in a population of ...

twin reversed arterial perfusion (trap) sequence is a syndrome with poor prognosis, seen only in monochorionic monozygotic twin pregnancies. the incidence is one in 35.000 births and one in 100 monozygotic twin pregnancies. it is characterized with a recipient fetus exhibiting lethal anomalies including acardia and a pump fetus. mortality is usually due to heart failure or premature labor cause...
