“Captains of the Sands”: Urban Illicit Ecologies and Sandscapes in Rio de Janeiro

Antipode, Volume 56, Issue 5, Page 1775-1801, September 2024.
Abstract Urban Political Ecology (UPE) has explored human–soil relations, emphasising the political dimensions of environmental degradation in and through urbanisation. However, UPE lacks critical reflection on governance collusions with illicit actors.

Development of novel compact wind tunnel for testing efficacy of insecticide formulated products in mosquitoes

Pest Management Science, Volume 80, Issue 7, Page 3140-3148, July 2024.
A novel compact wind tunnel was developed here and is an effective method for delivering insecticide formulated products to mosquitoes. This device could help mosquito control programs reduce personnel time and resources needed to assess efficacy of formulated products.

Forecasting West Nile Virus With Graph Neural Networks: Harnessing Spatial Dependence in Irregularly Sampled Geospatial Data

GeoHealth, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract Machine learning methods have seen increased application to geospatial environmental problems, such as precipitation nowcasting, haze forecasting, and crop yield prediction. However, many of the machine learning methods applied to mosquito population and disease forecasting do not inherently take into account the underlying spatial structure ...

Prevalence and diversity of avian malaria parasites in illegally traded white‐winged parakeets in Peruvian Amazonas

Animal Conservation, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 364-373, June 2024.
Psittaciformes have the largest proportion of endangered species among all birds worldwide and is one of the most trafficked taxa in the pet trade. However, despite the large number of parrot species commercialized worldwide, the influence of illegally traded wild birds on the introduction of exotic pathogens is still poorly investigated. We found that

Identificação e distribuição espacial de imóveis-chave de Aedes aegypti no bairro Porto Dantas, Aracaju, Sergipe, Brasil entre 2007 e 2008 [PDF]

Cadernos de Saúde Pública, 2013
A melhor forma de evitar novas epidemias de dengue é controlar o vetor, o mosquito Aedes aegypti. Assim, este estudo objetivou identificar e analisar a distribuição espacial dos imóveis-chave para Ae. aegypti em Aracaju, Sergipe, Brasil.

Joint spatial modelling of malaria incidence and vector's abundance shows heterogeneity in malaria‐vector geographical relationships

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 61, Issue 2, Page 365-378, February 2024.
Joint modelling improve predictive estimation compared to individual modelling. The accurate predictions highlighted high diversity in the association between malaria and vector species, with most of the area having more than one species suitability correlated with malaria suitability.
