Diseases occurring at low prevalence in free-ranging wildlife can be difficult to study and predict at a landscape scale. This problem is compounded b...

Gut microbiome disequilibrium is increasingly implicated in host fitness reductions, including for the economically important and disease-challenged w...

1. Estimating population abundance is a key objective of surveillance programmes, particularly for vector species of public health interest. For mosqu...

Many of the global losses of amphibians are believed to be caused by the chytrid fungus, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd). Hence, determining its p...

The ecological niche is a fundamental biological concept. Modelling species' niches is central to numerous ecological applications, including predicti...

Problems associated with the population dynamics and control of Simulium damnosum Theo. s.l. are discussed in relation to the programme for the contro...

Non-invasive techniques have long been used to estimate wildlife population abundance and density. However, recent technological breakthroughs have fa...

Control of animal-born diseases is a major challenge faced by applied ecologists and public health managers. To improve cost-effectiveness, the effort...

Correlative species distribution models can be used to produce spatially explicit estimates of environmental suitability for organisms. This process c...

A simulation model was used to evaluate the effect of different levels of culling on 6 badger social groups in an attempt to reduce or eradicate tuber...
