Drivers for Rift Valley fever emergence in Mayotte: A Bayesian modelling approach.

PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017
Rift Valley fever (RVF) is a major zoonotic and arboviral hemorrhagic fever. The conditions leading to RVF epidemics are still unclear, and the relative role of climatic and anthropogenic factors may vary between ecosystems.

Indirect effects of primary prey population dynamics on alternative prey

, 2014
We develop a theory of generalist predation showing how alternative prey species are affected by changes in both mean abundance and variability (coefficient of variation) of their predator's primary prey.

Economic impact of RVF outbreaks

, 2012
Dwarfing the direct losses due to ruminant abortions and flock mortality, the main economic impact of RVF is systemic and ensues from the trade restrictions aimed at its containment. Indeed, past outbreaks of RVF in East Africa and Middle East came as disturbing events in a commercial context of high specialization in trade of small ruminants and ...
