Análisis espacial de la mortalidad por cáncer en Tandil 2003-2005 utilizando métodos bayesianos [PDF]

Estudios Socioterritoriales: Revista de Geografía, 2014
El uso del espacio como categoría de análisis en general, y para el análisis de la desigual distribución de la mortalidad en este caso, no está exento de problemas teórico-metodológicos.

A spatially explicit assessment of factors shaping attitudes toward African elephant conservation. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Conservation plans that explicitly account for the social landscape where people and wildlife co‐occur can yield more effective and equitable conservation practices and outcomes. Yet, social data remain underutilized, often because social data are treated as aspatial or are analyzed with approaches that do not quantify uncertainty or address ...

Value of combining transect counts and telemetry data to determine short‐term population trends in a globally threatened species

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 6, December 2023., 2023
Abstract To evaluate conservation interventions, it is necessary to obtain reliable population trends for short (<10 years) time scales. Telemetry can be used to estimate short‐term survival rates and is a common tool for assessing population trends, but it has limitations and can be biased toward specific behavioral traits of tagged individuals ...

Knowledge coproduction to improve assessments of nature's contributions to people

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 6, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Sustainability science needs new approaches to produce, share, and use knowledge because there are major barriers to translating research into policy and practice. Multiple actors hold relevant knowledge for sustainability including indigenous and local people who have developed over generations knowledge, methods, and practices that ...

Accounting for bias in prevalence estimation: The case of a globally emerging pathogen

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 60, Issue 9, Page 2007-2017, September 2023., 2023
These results highlight the importance of using robust inferences to inform disease risk assessments and to efficiently allocate limited resources during mitigation strategies of infectious diseases. The methods used here can be applied to a wide range of host–pathogen systems, and will be of interest to both researchers and practitioners aiming to ...

Integrating presence‐only and presence–absence data to model changes in species geographic ranges: An example in the Neotropics

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 50, Issue 9, Page 1561-1575, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Anthropogenic changes such as land use and climate change affect species' geographic ranges, causing range shifts, contractions, or expansions. However, data on range dynamics are insufficient, heterogeneous, and spatially and temporally biased in most regions.

Longitudinal change in speech classification between 4 and 10 years in children with cerebral palsy

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 64, Issue 9, Page 1096-1105, September 2022., 2022
What this paper adds Children with early Viking Speech Scale (VSS) ratings below level IV have a good prognosis for speech improvement. Children with early VSS level IV ratings are likely to remain at VSS level IV over time. Children did not show worsening of VSS level between the ages of 4 and 10 years.

A joint distribution framework to improve presence‐only species distribution models by exploiting opportunistic surveys

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 49, Issue 6, Page 1176-1192, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim The availability of data related to species occurrences has favoured the development of species distribution models using only observations of presence. These data are intrinsically biased by the sampling effort. Presence‐only (PO) species distribution models (SDM) typically account for this effect by introducing additional data considered
