Wildlife disease elimination and density dependence.
Disease control by managers is a crucial response to emerging wildlife epidemics, yet the means of control may be limited by the method of disease transmission. In particular, it is widely held that population reduction, while effective for controlling diseases that are subject to density-dependent (DD) transmission, is ineffective for controlling diseases that are subject to frequency-dependen...

متن کاملSuccessful elimination of a lethal wildlife infectious disease in nature.
Methods to mitigate the impacts of emerging infectious diseases affecting wildlife are urgently needed to combat loss of biodiversity. However, the successful mitigation of wildlife pathogens in situ has rarely occurred. Indeed, most strategies for combating wildlife diseases remain theoretical, despite the wealth of information available for combating infections in livestock and crops. Here, w...
متن کاملHost-pathogen time series data in wildlife support a transmission function between density and frequency dependence.
A key aim in epidemiology is to understand how pathogens spread within their host populations. Central to this is an elucidation of a pathogen's transmission dynamics. Mathematical models have generally assumed that either contact rate between hosts is linearly related to host density (density-dependent) or that contact rate is independent of density (frequency-dependent), but attempts to confi...
متن کاملDensity Elimination 1
Density elimination, a close relative of cut elimination, consists of removing applications of the Takeuti-Titani density rule from derivations in Gentzen-style (hypersequent) calculi. Its most important use is as a crucial step in establishing standard completeness for syntactic presentations of fuzzy logics; that is, completeness with respect to algebras based on the real unit interval [0, 1]...
