Host culling as an adaptive management tool for chronic wasting disease in white-tailed deer: a modelling study [0.03%]
适应性管理工具:建模研究放牧清除以应对白尾鹿的慢性消耗病

Emerging wildlife diseases pose a significant threat to natural and human systems. Because of real or perceived risks of delayed actions, disease management strategies such as culling are often implemented before thorough scientific knowled...
Simulating the effects of different spatio-temporal fire regimes on plant metapopulation persistence in a Mediterranean-type region [0.03%]
模拟不同时空火灾频段对地中海气候区域植物元种群持久性的影响

Spatio-temporal fire regimes are likely to shift with changes in land use and climate. Such a shift in the disturbance regime has been proposed from recent reconstructions of the regional fire history in the Mediterranean-type woodlands and...
Habitat differentiation within the large-carnivore community of Norway's multiple-use landscapes [0.03%]
挪威多功能景观大型食肉动物群落的生态位分化

The re-establishment of large carnivores in Norway has led to increased conflicts and the adoption of regional zoning for these predators. When planning the future distribution of large carnivores, it is important to consider details of the...
The influence of predation on the chronic response of Artemia sp. populations to a toxicant [0.03%]

Environmental risk assessment of contaminants is conventionally based on toxic effects assessed in organism-level test systems. We suggest that, for the prediction of toxicant effects, population- and community-level effects should be consi...

Control of animal-born diseases is a major challenge faced by applied ecologists and public health managers. To improve cost-effectiveness, the effort required to control such pathogens needs to be predicted as accurately as possible. In th...

Rats have reached about 80% of the world's islands and are among the most successful invasive mammals. Rats are opportunistic predators that are notorious for their impact on a variety of animal and plant species. However, little documented...
Remote sensing-based predictors improve distribution models of rare, early successional and broadleaf tree species in Utah [0.03%]
基于遥感的预测因子可改善犹他州罕见、早期成功和阔叶树种的分布模型

N E Zimmermann et al.
Compared to bioclimatic variables, remote sensing predictors are rarely used for predictive species modelling. When used, the predictors represent typically habitat classifications or filters rather than gradual spectral, surface or biophys...
Re-establishment of local populations of vectors of Chagas disease after insecticide spraying [0.03%]
喷洒杀虫剂后恰加斯病媒介昆虫当地种群的重新建立
Heinrich Zu Dohna,María C Cecere,Ricardo E Gürtler et al.
Heinrich Zu Dohna et al.
1. Prevention of Chagas disease is mainly dependent on control of the insect vectors that transmit infection. Unfortunately, this control is not wholly successful and the vectors have been resurgent in some areas. Where re-infestation has o...
