Systems biology promises to revolutionize medicine, yet human wellbeing is also inherently linked to healthy societies and environments (sustainability). The IDEA Consortium is a systems ecology open science initiative to conduct the basic scientific research needed to build use-oriented simulations (avatars) of entire social-ecological systems. Islands are the most scientifically tractable pla...
The globally increasing light pollution is a well-recognized threat to ecosystems, with negative effects on human, animal and plant wellbeing. The most well-known and widely documented consequence of light pollution is the generally fatal attraction of nocturnal insects to artificial light sources. However, the evolutionary consequences are unknown. Here we report that moth populations from urb...
According to the draft Delta Vision and as required by Executive Order S-17-06, the Blue Ribbon Task Force (TF) is responsible to: “develop a durable vision for sustainable management of the Delta” that can “restore and maintain identified functions and values that are determined to be important to the environmental quality of the Delta and the economic and social well being of the people of th...
The National Ecosystem Assessment (2011) found that observing nature and participating in physical activity in green spaces plays an important role in positively influencing human health and well-being. Exercise in green places is associated with positive health outcomes, which exceed those experienced from exercising in environments lacking nature (i.e. indoors). If 1% of the sedentary populat...
Despite the proposed ecological and systems-based perspectives of the settings-based approach to health promotion, most initiatives have tended to overlook the fundamental nature of ecosystems. This paper responds to this oversight by proposing an explicit re-integration of ecosystems within the healthy settings approach. We make this case by focusing on water as an integrating unit of analysis...
1. Improved understanding of social, political, economic, and ecological interactions and development of knowledge based interventions for improved health and well-being outcomes, through participatory research, led by Ecohealth partners jointly with the local and policy communities, on selected thematic entry points. 2. More informed policy making and improved policy implementation on issue ar...
National ecosystem assessments provide evidence on the status and trends of biodiversity, ecosystem conditions, and the delivery of ecosystem services to society. I this study, we analyze the complex relationships established between ecosystems and human systems in Spain through the combination of Driver-Pressure-State-Impact-Response framework and structural equation models. Firstly, to operat...
BACKGROUND The global disease burden resulting from climate change is likely to be substantial and will put further strain on public health systems that are already struggling to cope with demand. An up- stream solution, that of preventing climate change and associated adverse health effects, is a promising approach, which would create win-win-situations where both the environment and human hea...
Tuberculosis of the tonsils is by no means a common condition, Mullin (1923), for example, in analysing 400 tonsillectomies found only 4.25 per cent cases of tuberculous tonsils. The present study is based on 2,477 tonsillectomies in the Madras General Hospital. This series covers a period of five years from January 1928 to December 1932. We, however, feel that this investigation is incomplete ...
Jatropha-based biofuels have undergone a rapid boom-and-bust cycle in southern Africa. Despite strong initial support by governments, donors, and the private sector, there is a lack of empirical studies that compare the environmental and socioeconomic impacts of Jatropha’s two dominant modes of production: large plantations and smallholder-based projects. We apply a rapid ecosystem services ass...
