“Ticking Bomb”: The Impact of Climate Change on the Incidence of Lyme Disease
Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018 Lyme disease (LD) is the most common tick‐borne disease in North America. It is caused by Borrelia burgdorferi and transmitted to humans by blacklegged ticks, Ixodes scapularis. The life cycle of the LD vector, I. scapularis, usually takes two to three years to complete and goes through three stages, all of which are dependent on environmental factors.

Issues in the software implementation of stochastic numerical Runge-Kutta [PDF]
, 2018 This paper discusses stochastic numerical methods of Runge-Kutta type with weak and strong convergences for systems of stochastic differential equations in It\^o form. At the beginning we give a brief overview of the stochastic numerical methods and information from the theory of stochastic differential equations.
