Inferring Colonization Processes from Population Dynamics in Spatially Structured Predator-Prey Systems [PDF]
Ecology, 2000 We examine how spatial subdivision of predator–prey systems affects colonization processes in metapopulations. Dynamics of the herbivorous spider mite Tetranychus urticae (prey) and the predatory mite Phytoseiulus persimilis are highly unstable on isolated bean plants (Phaseolus lunatus) and ultimately result in extinction of prey and predators ...

Spatial spillover effects from agriculture drive deforestation in Mato Grosso, Brazil
Scientific Reports, 2021 Deforestation of the Amazon rainforest is a threat to global climate, biodiversity, and many other ecosystem services. In order to address this threat, an understanding of the drivers of deforestation processes is required.

Deploying digital health data to optimize influenza surveillance at national and local scales.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2018 The surveillance of influenza activity is critical to early detection of epidemics and pandemics and the design of disease control strategies. Case reporting through a voluntary network of sentinel physicians is a commonly used method of passive ...
