Modeling the Prevalence of Avian Influenza in Guilan Province Using Data Mining Models and Spatial Information System in 2016: An Ecological Study
Background and Objectives: Infection of birds to Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) and their extinction impose heavily losses on the livestock and poultry industry along with public health. Nowadays, due to the volume and variety of data, the need of using location-based technologies and data mining sciences has become inevitable. This study aims to model the prevalence of avian influenz...
متن کاملInvasion of two tick-borne diseases across New England: harnessing human surveillance data to capture underlying ecological invasion processes.
Modelling the spatial spread of vector-borne zoonotic pathogens maintained in enzootic transmission cycles remains a major challenge. The best available spatio-temporal data on pathogen spread often take the form of human disease surveillance data. By applying a classic ecological approach-occupancy modelling-to an epidemiological question of disease spread, we used surveillance data to examine...
متن کاملاستفاده از تئوری مدارهای الکتریکی جهت شناسایی کریدورهای مهاجرتی بین پناهگاههای حیات وحش موته و قمشلو در استان اصفهان
Modeling of ecological connectivity across landscape is important for understanding a wide range of ecological processes. Modeling ecological connectivity between habitats and incorporating these models into conservation planning require quantifying the effect of spatial patterns of landscape on the degree of habitats connectivity. Recently, concepts from electrical circuit theory have been ad...
متن کاملThe landscape genetics of infectious disease emergence and spread.
The spread of parasites is inherently a spatial process often embedded in physically complex landscapes. It is therefore not surprising that infectious disease researchers are increasingly taking a landscape genetics perspective to elucidate mechanisms underlying basic ecological processes driving infectious disease dynamics and to understand the linkage between spatially dependent population p...
متن کاملAssessment and Spatial Planning of Landscape Ecological Connectivity for Biodiversity Management (Case Study: Qazvin Province)
Habitat and ecosystem fragmentation and, consequently, the loss of landscape connectivity are major causes of biodiversity destruction, leading to disruption of material, energy, and information flow at the landscape scale. Given the importance of this issue, the current study aimed to evaluate the ecological connectivity and spatial planning of Qazvin Province, in order to re-establish and pro...
