The dog and cat population on Maio Island, Cape Verde: characterisation and prediction based on household survey and remotely sensed imagery.
The objective was to estimate and characterise the dog and cat population on Maio Island, Cape Verde. Remotely sensed imagery was used to document the number of houses across the island and a household survey was carried out in six administrative areas recording the location of each animal using a global positioning system instrument. Linear statistical models were applied to predict the dog an...
متن کاملMolecular and serological surveillance of canine enteric viruses in stray dogs from Vila do Maio, Cape Verde
BACKGROUND Infections caused by canine parvovirus, canine distemper virus and canine coronavirus are an important cause of mortality and morbidity in dogs worldwide. Prior to this study, no information was available concerning the incidence and prevalence of these viruses in Cape Verde archipelago. RESULTS To provide information regarding the health status of the canine population in Vila do ...
متن کاملInSAR observations of the 1995 Fogo, Cape Verde, eruption: Implications for the effects of collapse events upon island volcanoes
[1] Fogo volcano, Cape Verde Islands, erupted in April 1995 after 43 years of dormancy. About 46 10 m of lava erupted during 7.5 weeks from vents on the SW flank of Pico do Fogo into Cha das Caldeiras. Interferograms obtained from 1993–1998 ERS SAR data show ground deformation due to the feeder dike but lack evidence for any volcano-wide deformation related to volume changes of a shallow magma ...
متن کاملWater Sector Regulation in Small Island Developing States: an Application to Cape Verde
Small Island Developing states (SIDs) present challenges for analysts and policy-makers attempting to strengthen island-nation infrastructure. This study applies lessons to one SID to illustrate how benchmarking can improve the performance of water utilities. The archipelagonation of Cape Verde is characterized by severe water scarcity and relatively low per capita income (the GDP is the 93 th ...
متن کاملGravity Evidence for Extinct Magma Chambers on Mars: Tyrrhena Patera and Hadriaca Patera
The Mars Global Surveyor mission has vastly improved our knowledge of the topography and gravity of Mars [1,2,3], permitting detailed geophysical modeling of subsurface structures such as magma chambers for the first time. I have recently presented a gravity model for Syrtis Major [4] and showed that the gravity data requires the presence of a buried, high-density body. The spatial association ...
